Abstract

A low density polyethylene composition characterized by having a density in range of 0.91 to 0.94 gm/cm3, a melt index in the range of 1 to 5 g/10 minutes, a gel permeation chromatography branching index in the range of 1.2 to 1, a polydispersity index in the range of 3.5 to 7.5, a viscosity ratio in the range of 0.7 to 1, and a long chain branching frequency greater than zero at a log molecular weight (log(MW)) value in the range of 4 to 5.5. Film formed from the polyethylene compositions with favorable haze and gloss characteristics, and a process for forming such film, are also described.
