A method of making polyolefin with a target melt flow index and melt flow
rate is disclosed. The method polymerizes one or more olefinic monomers
in a single reactor containing a bicomponent catalyst system. The
catalyst system includes a first catalyst component and a second catalyst
component each characterized by a catalyst productivity and a
chain-transfer-agent response. The single reactor has a
chain-transfer-agent concentration and a temperature. The productivity of
the second catalyst component is substantially different temperature
dependent than that of the first catalyst component. The
chain-transfer-agent response of the second catalyst component is
substantially different sensitive than that of the first catalyst
component. The temperature of the reactor is adjusted so that the melt
flow ratio approaches the target value. The chain transfer agent
concentration in the reactor is adjusted so that the melt index
approaches the target value.
