Popis: The mechanical and rheological properties of ethylene α-olefin copolymers are governed by a molecular and supramolecular structure that depends on its molecular weight characteristics, comonomer concentration, and the uniformity of branching distributions for polymer chains with different molecular weights (compositional heterogeneity). Using state-of-the-art methods, we study the parameters of molecular weight distribution, molecular structure, and compositional heterogeneity of ethylene hexene-1 copolymers with different compositions, produced over highly active supported Ti-Mg and V-Mg Ziegler-Natta catalysts, and show the possibility of controlling these parameters to improve the quality of the resulting polymers.
