Ethylene alpha-olefin copolymers and methods

The present disclosure generally relates to ethylene alpha-olefin copolymers and methods of making ethylene alpha-olefin copolymers. The ethylene alpha-olefin copolymers may have a density of about 0.915 g/mL to about 0.918 g/mL, a rheological polydispersity index greater than 0.8, a melt index of about 0.4 dg/10 min to about 2.0 dg/10 min, and/or a CEF T.sub.50 of 84 C. or less. The ethylene alpha-olefin copolymers may be made by combining an ethylene monomer and one or more alpha-olefin monomers in the presence of a catalyst, such as a Ziegler-Natta catalyst.
