Provided are an ethylene homopolymer having well-balanced properties of good heat resistance, good heat-sealability and good moldability, and its molded articles. The ethylene homopolymer is characterized in that the number of butyl branches per 100 methyl branches therein falls between 1 and 20, as measured through <13>C-NMR, that its density, d (kg/m<3>), falls between 880 and 980, and that the density, d, and its melting point, Tm ( DEG C), satisfy the conditions defined by the following formulae (1) to (3): <MATH> The ethylene homopolymer is molded into moldings.n |
