Abstract

This disclosure relates to rotomolded articles, having a wall structure, where the wall structure contains at least one layer containing an ethylene interpolymer product, or a blend containing an ethylene interpolymer product, where the ethylene interpolymer product has: a Dilution Index (Yd) greater than −1.0; total catalytic metal ≧3.0 ppm; ≧0.03 terminal vinyl unsaturations per 100 carbon atoms. The ethylene interpolymer products have a melt index from about 0.5 to about 15 dg/minute, a density from about 0.930 to about 0.955 g/cm3, a polydispersity (Mw/Mn) from about 2 to about 6 and a CDBI50 from about 50% to about 98%. Further, the ethylene interpolymer products are a blend of at least two ethylene interpolymers; where one ethylene interpolymer is produced with a single-site catalyst formulation and at least one ethylene interpolymer is produced with a heterogeneous catalyst formulation.
