    Example 1

    [0106] Sample roofing membranes were prepared and compared to a control roofing membrane. Each of the sample roofing membranes comprised a first layer and an adhesive layer. The first layer for each of the sample roofing membranes comprised a thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) as a major polymer; and a butene-based ethylene copolymer as a minor polymer. Details for the first layerspecifically, the major polymer and the minor polymer (if present)and the adhesive, for both the sample roofing membranes and the control roofing membrane, are summarized in Table 1 below. As shown in Table 1 below, the weight percentages of the butene-based ethylene copolymer were varied. The control roofing membrane was similar to the various roofing membranes, except the control roofing membrane did not comprise the minor polymeri.e., the butene-based ethylene copolymer.

    Example 2

    [0107] The peel strength of the sample roofing membranes was measured and compared to the peel strength of the control roofing membrane. Each of the sample roofing membranes and the control roofing membrane were adhered to an oriented strand board (OSB), and the peel strength was measured according to ASTM D413. The measured peel strengths for each of the sample roofing membranes and the control roofing membrane are summarized in Table 2 below.

    TABLE-US-00002 TABLE 2 Peel Strength of Sample Roofing Membranes and Control Roofing Membrane Control Sample 1 Sample 2 Sample 3 Peel Strength 4.5 6.2 6.8 6.2 (PLI)

    [0108] As shown in Table 2, each of the sample roofing membranes exhibited an increase in peel strength when the butene-based ethylene copolymer was incorporated into the first layer as a minor polymer, relative to the control roofing membrane.

    Example 3

    [0109] The flexibility and stretchability of the sample roofing membranes were measured and compared to the flexibility and stretchability of the control roofing membrane. For the flexibility, the elongation modulus (psi) was measured at 100% elongation in the machine direction (MD) and the cross-machine direction (CMD), both according to ASTM D412. For stretchability, the percentage elongation at break in the machine direction (MD) was measured according to ASTM D412. The elongation modulus and the percentage elongation for each of the sample roofing membranes and the control roofing membrane are summarized in Table 3 below.

    [0110] As shown in Table 3, each of the sample roofing membranes exhibited similar or improved elongation modulus in the MD and CMD, relative to the control roofing membrane. In addition, each of the sample roofing membranes exhibited similar or improved percentage elongation at break in the CMD, relative to the control roofing membrane.
