The present invention relates to a polyethylene composition comprising a base resin which comprises a low molecular weight ethylene homo- or copolymer fraction (A) and a high molecular weight ethylene homo- or copolymer fraction (B), wherein fraction (A) has a lower average molecular weight as fraction (B), characterized in that the base resin has a weight average molecular weight (Mw) of from 190,000 g/mol to 300,000 g/mol and a complex viscosity at 0.05 rad/s (η* 0.05 rad/s ) of 75 to 500 kPa·s, a process for the production of said polyethylene composition, an article, suitably a pipe, comprising said polyethylene composition, and the use of said polyethylene composition according for the production of an article. |
