Abstract

A propylene polymer composition is prepared by mixing a first propylene polymer prepared using an olefin polymerization catalyst containing a specific metallocene catalyst component of formula (I), e.g., rac-dimethylsilylene-bis{1-(2-ethyl-4-phenylindenyl)} zirconium dichloride, and an organoaluminum-oxy cocatalyst, with a second propylene polymer component. The compositions are excellent in heat resistance, mechanical strength, tensile elongation at break, and other properties and can be used to produce various structural materials, sheets and films.
