          Application No. 08/120,105                                                  

                                      APPENDIX                                        
          17. A process for the preparation of a polyolefin molding                   
               composition comprising at least two polyolefinic components,           
               wherein the composition is characterized by a broad,                   
               bimodal, or multimodal melting range in a DSC spectrum                 
               determined with a heating/cooling rate of 20°C/min wherein             
               the peak in the melting range has a maximum and can be                 
               bimodal or multimodal and the maximum of the peak in the               
               melting range is between 120 and 165°C, the half-intensity             
               width of the melting peak is broader than 10°C and the width           
               determined at quarter peak height is greater that 15°C,                
               wherein such process comprises the direct polymerization of            
               propylene or copolymerization of propylene with olefins of             
               the formula RaCH=CHRb, in which Ra and Rb are identical or              
               different and are a hydrogen atom or an alkyl radical having           
               2 to 14 carbon atoms wherein the polymerized ethylene                  
               content of the resulting polyolefin composition is from 0 to           
               2.5% by weight,                                                        
               to at least two polyolefins of different melting points,               
               wherein the melting points of the polyolefins must differ by           
               at least 5°C, and wherein the polymerization is carried out            
               at a temperature of from -60 to 200°C, and a pressure of               
                                         -1-
