    Abstract: A process for producing a polypropylene composition using a compounding extruder includes a) a melting section having a first elongated cylindrical tube with a first inlet port to receive a propylene-based polymer and additives containing an elastomer of ethylene and α-olefin comonomer having 4 to 8 carbon atoms and a first outlet port to discharge a first melt composition containing a melt of the propylene-based polymer and the additives and a first screw arranged in the first elongated cylindrical tube, convey the propylene-based polymer and the additives to the first outlet port, and a mixing section including a second elongated cylindrical tube having a second inlet port to receive the first melt composition, and a second outlet port to discharge a second melt composition containing the first melt composition and the optional further component and a second screw arranged in the second elongated cylindrical tube to convey the first melt composition to the second outlet, wherein the first screw and the second screw areoperable at different screw speeds. The process includes: A) feeding the propylene-based polymer and the additives to the first inlet and discharging the first melt composition from the first outlet, wherein the first screw is operated at a first screw speed and B) feeding the first melt composition from the first outlet to the second inlet, and discharging the second melt composition from the second outlet, wherein the second screw is operated at a second screw speed smaller than the first screw speed.
