The present disclosure provides high density polyethylene resins having good low temperature impact resistance. The resins are suitable for use in rotomolding application for large parts. The resin is a bi- or trimodal resin produced using solution phase polymerization in the presence of a single site catalyst.

This disclosure relates to a continuous solution three reactor polymerization process. Process solvent, ethylene, optional comonomers, optional hydrogen and a single site catalyst system are injected into a first and second reactor configured in parallel to one another. A third reactor receives effluent from the first reactor, the second reactor, or a combination of the first and second reactors. Fresh monomer is feed to the third reactor for further polymerization and to give a final polyethylene product.

Catalyst compositions containing activator-supports and half-metallocene titanium phosphinimide complexes or half-metallocene titanium iminoimidazolidide complexes are disclosed. These catalyst compositions can be used to produce olefin polymers having relatively broad molecular weight distributions and low levels of long chain branching.

A phosphinimide catalyst system comprises: i) a phosphinimide pre-polymerization catalyst having a cyclopentadienyl ligand and a phosphinimide ligand which is substituted with a guanidinate type group; and ii) a catalyst activator. The catalyst system polymerizes ethylene with an alpha-olefin to give high molecular weight ethylene copolymer.

A phosphinimide catalyst system comprises: i) a phosphinimide pre-polymerization catalyst having two phosphinimide ligands, at least one of which is substituted by a phosphinimide moiety; and ii) a catalyst activator. The catalyst system polymerizes ethylene with an alpha-olefin to give high molecular weight ethylene copolymer.

A method of preparing a supported metallocene catalyst capable of more effectively preparing a polyolefin which may be preferably used for blow molding, etc., because its molecular weight distribution is such that polymer elasticity is increased to improve swell, is provided.

By controlling the ratio of catalyst components or the type of activator the homogeneity of a polymer produced using a single site catalyst may be improved.
