Abstract
Thermoplastic polyolefin compositions of a substantially crystalline polyolefin that is a homopolymer of ethylene, propylene or butylene or a copolymer of propylene and a C.sub.3 -C.sub.10 alpha-olefin; about 10% to 50% by weight of a first substantially amorphous polyolefin of a terpolymer of ethylene with a C.sub.3 -C.sub.10 alpha-olefin and a diene monomer and having a Mooney Viscosity (ML.sub.1+4, 100.degree. C.) of between about 10 and about 120; optionally, a copolymer of ethylene and a C.sub.3 -C.sub.10 alpha-olefin may be present; and about 1 to 20% by weight of a second substantially amorphous polyolefin having a number average molecular weight of between about 1,000 and 15,000 and including (a) a copolymer of ethylene with a C.sub.3 -C.sub.10 alpha-olefin; (b) a terpolymer of ethylene with a C.sub.3 -C.sub.10 alpha-olefin and a diene monomer; (c) a block copolymer that includes blocks of a C.sub.3 -C.sub.10 alpha-olefin, butadiene, isoprene, styrene or alpha-methyl styrene; or (d) the reaction product of one of (a), (b) or (c) with a compound that provides a polar functional group. Also, articles of manufacture of these compositions in the form of a molded or extruded sub…
