This invention relates to a process to produce propylene polymer using a bridged hafnium transition metal metallocene catalyst compounds having two indenyl ligands substituted at the 4 positions with a C 1 to C 10 alkyl, where the 3 positions are hydrogen (assuming the bridge position is counted as the one position) and the bridging atom is carbon or silicon which is incorporated into a cyclic group comprising 3, 4, 5, or 6 silicon and/or carbon atoms that make up the cyclic ring, where the propylene polymer has 1) greater than 40% vinyl chain ends, relative to the total unsaturated chain ends, 2) a Tm of 70° C. or more; an Mw of 3000 to 300,000 g/mol, and 4) a g′ vis of 0.90 or less. |
