Abstract

The instant invention is an improved low-density ethylenic polymer composition and method of making the same. The polymer composition according to instant invention includes a major component, and a minor component. The major component is an LDPE resin having a melt index (I2) in the range of about 0.01 dg/min to about 100 dg/min, a MW(abs)/MW(GPC) ratio of about 2.6 or less, and a melt strength of less than (14.0 e(−1.05*log 10(MI)))cN Jj16 mmor component is an LDPE resin having a melt index (I2) of less than about 5 dg/min, a molecular weight distribution of greater than about 7, and a MW(abs)/MW(GPC) ratio of at least 2.7. The polymer composition of the instant invention may further include additional components.
