Described herein are propylene-based polymer compositions that comprise a reactor blend of a first polymer component and a second polymer component. The first polymer component has an ethylene content of from greater than 12 to less than 19 wt % ethylene, and the second polymer component has an ethylene content of from greater than 4 to less than 10 wt % ethylene. Preferably, the ethylene content of the first and second polymer components satisfy the formula:
−1.7143R.sub.1+29.771≤R.sub.2≤−1.9167R.sub.1+37.25.
The propylene-based polymer compositions are particularly useful for forming meltspun nonwoven compositions that exhibit a desirable balance of retractive force and permanent set.

Provided herein are methods of polymerizing α-olefin monomer with a catalyst and hydrogen in a slurry to produce low molecular weight polyolefins. Hydrogen is vented from the low molecular weight polyolefins and then the low molecular weight polyolefins are further polymerized in a gas phase to produce a polyolefin having a molecular weight distribution of between 4.0 and 30 and a flexural modulus between 1500 mPa and 2500 mPa.
