Abstract

A novel polymer composition is described comprising ethylene homopolymers and/or copolymers of ethylene with C3-C8-alpha-olefins which polymer composition has a density of from 0.940 to 0.949 g/cm3, a melt index (HLMI) according to DIN EN ISO 1133:2005, condition G at 190° C. and 21.6 kg, of from 3 to 7 g/10 min. and a Hostalen Long Chain Branching Index (HLCBI) of from 3 to 8, and which polymer composition is produced by polymerisation with one or more Ziegler catalysts in a series of at least two polymerization reactors. The new polymer composition can in particular be used for blow moulding of intermediate bulk containers.
