This disclosure relates to ethylene interpolymer product having intermediate branching. Intermediate branching was defined as branching that was longer than the branch length due to comonomer and shorter than the entanglement molecular weight (M.sub.e). Intermediately branched ethylene interpolymer products were produced in a continuous solution polymerization process employing an intermediate branching catalyst formulation. Intermediately branched ethylene interpolymer products were characterized by a Non-Comonomer Index Distribution (NCID.sub.i), a melt index from 0.3 to 500 dg/minute, a density from 0.858 to 0.965 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 10% to about 98%. A method based on triple detection cross fractionation chromatography (3D-CFC) was disclosed to measure NCID.sub.i.

The present disclosure relates to a Ziegler-Natta catalyst system comprising a pro-catalyst, a co-catalyst and a selectivity control agent. The pro-catalyst comprises a magnesium compound, a titanium compound and a multi-dentate internal donor, wherein the internal donor is tetraethyl 3,3,3′,3′-tetramethyl-2,2′,3,3′-tetrahydro-1,1′-spirobiindane-5,5′,6,6′-tetracarbonate. The present disclosure further relates to a process for polymerization of an olefin using the Ziegler-Natta catalyst system. The Ziegler-Natta catalyst system of the present disclosure shows very high hydrogen response and thus can be used to produce low to high molecular weight polyolefin.
