Abstract

The invention relates to a Process for the preparation of a composition comprising a heterophasic propylene copolymer and talc, wherein the heterophasic propylene copolymer consists of (a) a propylene-based matrix, wherein the propylene-based matrix consists of a propylene homopolymer and/or a propylene-α-olefin copolymer consisting of at least 70% by mass of propylene and up to 30% by mass of α-olefin, based on the total mass of the propylene-based matrix, wherein the propylene-based matrix is present in an amount of 60 to 95 wt % based on the total heterophasic propylene copolymer and (b) a dispersed ethylene-α-olefin copolymer, wherein the dispersed ethylene-α-olefin copolymer is present in an amount of 40 to 5 wt % based on the total heterophasic propylene copolymer and wherein the sum of the total amount of propylene-based matrix and total amount of the dispersed ethylene-α-olefin copolymer in the heterophasic propylene copolymer is 100 wt %, wherein the composition has a desired melt flow index in the range of 1 to 200 dg/min as measured according to ISO1133 (2.16 kg/230° C.), wherein at least part of the talc is surface-modified and wherein the amount of talc in the composit…
