This book focuses in the commercial use and process improvements of resins produced with metallocene, single site, and other modern catalytic methods. It presents research that broadens the scope of applications and shortens production cycles. The book also explores new and improved polymer blends that have resulted from the use of new catalysts. New applications made possible by improved and balance properties are also covered.

Current trends and the latest research from the international scientific and industrial community are presented here. Chapters cover use in extrusion, film forming, injection molding, foam production, fiber spinning, composites, and new applications. Precise testing methods, material characterization, polymer morphology and crystallization are also a focus of this book.
