Abstract
A graft-modified ethylene/.alpha.-olefin copolymer composition is prepared by graft copolymerizing an ethylene/.alpha.-olefin copolymer. The ethylene/.alpha.-olefin copolymer composition includes first and second ethylene/.alpha.-olefin copolymers. The copolymers are each prepared in the presence of a polymerization catalyst containing (a) an organoaluminum oxy compound and (b) for the first ethylene/.alpha.-olefin copolymer at least two kinds, and for the second ethylene/.alpha.-olefin copolymer one kind, of compounds of Group IV transition metals of the periodic table containing a ligand having a cyclopentadienyl skeleton. The ethylene/.alpha.-olefin copolymer composition may be blended with a polyolefin by mechanical or solution blending. The copolymer compositions have excellent moldability and heat stability properties and forms films having high transparency and mechanical strength.
