Abstract

The present invention relates to a process comprising extruding a blend of an first propylene polymer comprising a non-phenolic stabilizer and a non-irradiated second propylene polymer, wherein the irradiation of the first propylene polymer was conducted in a reduced oxygen environment, and the irradiated first propylene polymer and the non-irradiated second propylene polymer were blended at a temperature below the melting point of the first and second propylene polymers.
