1. An ethylene-based polymer composition formed by high pressure free radical polymerization comprising:
(i) ethylene monomer and (ii) a mixture of hydrocarbon-based molecules, each hydrocarbon-based molecule comprising three or more terminal alkene groups
to form an ethylene-based copolymer with monomers consisting of (i) and (ii) and having
a melt index (MI) from 0.1 to 1.0 g/10 min, and
an Mw/Mn greater than 20.
