In a process for producing a polymer blend, at least one first monomer is
polymerized in a first slurry phase reaction zone in the presence of a
supported first catalyst to produce a thermoplastic first polymer having
a crystallinity of at least 30%. At least part of said first polymer is
then contacted with at least one second monomer different from said first
monomer in a second solution phase reaction zone in the presence of a
second catalyst and in the absence of polyenes under conditions to
produce a second polymer having a crystallinity of less than 20%.
