This disclosure relates to manufactured articles containing ethylene interpolymers. Specifically, films, containers and lids comprising at least one layer of an ethylene interpolymer product, or a blend containing an ethylene interpolymer product, where the ethylene interpolymer product has: a Dilution Index (Y.sub.d) greater than 0; total catalytic metal ?3.0 ppm; ?0.03 terminal vinyl unsaturations per 100 carbon atoms, and; optionally a Dimensionless Modulus (X.sub.d) greater than 0. The ethylene interpolymer products have a melt index from about 0.4 to about 100 dg/minute, a density from about 0.950 to about 0.970 g/cm.sup.3, a polydispersity (M.sub.w/M.sub.n) from about 2 to about 25 and a CDBI.sub.50 from about 55% to about 97%. 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.

This disclosure relates to a continuous solution polymerization process where ethylene interpolymer products having an improved color index; for example, products having higher whiteness (Whiteness Index (WI)) and lower yellowness (Yellowness Index (YI)). Product color was improved by adjusting selected solution polymerization reaction conditions. The disclosed ethylene interpolymer products have improved color relative to comparative polyethylene compositions.

Provided are blend compositions comprising a propylene-based elastomer and a polyalphaolefin. The blend compositions may be particularly useful in elastic film compositions, and especially useful as elastic film layers in nonwoven laminates. The film may comprise a blend of from about 0.5 to about 60 wt % of a polyalphaolefin and 40 to 99.5 wt % of a propylene-based elastomer. The film may comprise a blend of a propylene-base elastomer that comprises propylene and from 5 to 30 wt % of an -olefin and a polyalphaolefin having a kinematic viscosity (KV) at 100 C. of from 3 to 3000 cSt.

Interpenetrated polyolefin network for use in recovering or containing hydrocarbons such as hydrocarbons contained in oil, are disclosed. Advantageously, the interpenetrated polyolefin networks absorb the hydrocarbon, including viscous hydrocarbons and crude oils, to form a gel that can be collected and processed by heat to release the collected hydrocarbons.

A polyethylene composition including the product of the combination of at least one copolymer made from units derived from at least 85 wt % ethylene and a C.sub.3 to C.sub.10 -olefin and from 0.10 wt % to 10 wt % of a cyclic-diene terpolymer is provided.

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 (Y.sub.d) 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/cm.sup.3, a polydispersity (M.sub.w/M.sub.n) from about 2 to about 6 and a CDBI.sub.50 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.

A combination comprising a receptacle of defined internal volume, which contains a chemical reaction product. The product may be made in apparatus for undertaking a chemical reaction which comprises an elongate housing and a receptacle. The elongate housing may include a cooling means and end fittings which may include ports where fluids may be introduced and/or removed.

This disclosure relates to multilayer films having improved caulkability. These multilayer films have 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 (Y.sub.d) greater than 0; total catalytic metal 3.0 ppm; 0.03 terminal vinyl unsaturations per 100 carbon atoms, and; optionally a Dimensionless Modulus (X.sub.d) greater than 0.
