Abstract
Homogeneous polymerization catalysts require large amounts of solvent and cannot control the polymer morphology. In order to solve this issue, a narrow-shaped spherical ZSM-5 zeolite was used in ethylene polymerization as a support for zirconocene (Cp2ZrCl2). Several heterogeneous catalytic precursors were prepared and used in ethylene polymerization reactions, which showed yields (between 980-8019 kg PE mol-1 h-1) and were efficient at promoting morphological replication of the support. So, a ...
Homogeneous polymerization catalysts require large amounts of solvent and cannot control the polymer morphology. In order to solve this issue, a narrow-shaped spherical ZSM-5 zeolite was used in ethylene polymerization as a support for zirconocene (Cp2ZrCl2). Several heterogeneous catalytic precursors were prepared and used in ethylene polymerization reactions, which showed yields (between 980-8019 kg PE mol-1 h-1) and were efficient at promoting morphological replication of the support. So, a well-established protocol for slurry polymerization reaction was found, yielding well-defined polymer particles in an advantageous polymerization process. ...
