Preparation of Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene Using Ziegler-Natta Catalyst System: Optimization of Parameters by Response Surface Methodology

Wear of Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene

Synthesis of high molecular weight polyethylene using FI catalyst

A FI Zr-based catalyst of bis[N-(3,5-dicumylsalicylidene)-2′,6′­diisopropylanilinato]zirconium(IV) dichloride was prepared and used for polymerization of ethylene. The effects of reaction conditions on the polymerization were examined in detail. The increase in ethylene pressure and rise in polymerization temperature up to 35 oC were favorable for catalyst/MAO to raise the catalytic activity as...

The coordinative state of aluminium alkyls in Ziegler-Natta catalysts.

The most commonly used cocatalyst species in Ziegler-Natta catalysts are aluminium alkyls. In this study we aim to find the interaction between aluminium centres of these activators and other components in the ZNC system. Initially we look at binary systems of Al-alkyl/MgCl2 and ternary systems of Al-alkyl/MgCl2/TiCl4, followed by donor containing systems. The aluminium alkyls prove to be very ...

Design of stereoselective Ziegler-Natta propene polymerization catalysts.

After five decades of largely serendipitous (albeit formidable) progress, catalyst design in Ziegler-Natta olefin polymerization, i.e., the rational implementation of new active species to target predetermined polyolefin architectures, has ultimately become a realistic ambition, thanks to a much deeper fundamental understanding and major advances in the tools of computational chemistry. In this...
