This invention pertains to highly filled polymer compositions comprising a
low molecular weight ethylene and/or alpha olefin homopolymers and
copolymers, or blends therefrom, filled with high concentrations of
fillers or additives. Examples of such fillers or additives include fire
retardants, talc, ceramic manufacturing agents, color concentrates,
crosslinking agents, and blowing agents. Because of the low crystallinity
(and therefore high percentage of amorphous phase) and low viscosities of
the base polymers, highly processable compositions can be formed
containing even if containing relatively high loadings of fillers or
additives. Such highly filled compositions are thus ideally suited as
concentrates or masterbatch formulations for a variety of different
compounding applications.
