beside ziegler-natta and phillips catalysts the development of methylaluminoxane (mao) as cocatalyst incombination with metallocenes or other transition metal complexes for the polymerization of olefins haswidely increased the possibilities in controlling the polymer composition, polymer structure, tacticity and special properties with high precision. these catalysts allow the synthesis of isot...

in this study, the slurry polymerization of ethylene over ticl4/mgcl2/alet3 was obtained. firstly, to obtain the optimum value of [al]/[ti], the effect of [al]/[ti] on polymerization rate and catalyst yield was studied. also, the effect of catalyst content on yielding, crystallization, melting point and density of product were obtained. to determine the order of reaction, the monomer pressure w...

Forty years after the discovery of metallocene catalysts, there are still several aspects that remain unresolved, especially when “conventional” alkylaluminum activators not used. Herein, we systematically investigated synthesis polyethylene (PE) via three different zirconocene with alkyl substituents, activated organoboron compounds. The polymerization behavior, as well properties materials, w...

In this work we report the polymerization behaviour of natural clays (montmorillonites, MMT) as activating supports. These materials have been modified by treatment with different aluminium compounds in order to obtain enriched aluminium clays and to modify the global Brönsted/Lewis acidity. As a consequence, the intrinsic structural properties of the starting materials have been changed. These...

An overview is given of the chemistry of tris(azolyl)phosphines with focus on their preparation and application in coordinationand organometallic chemistry and catalysis. These systems share with the more abundant tris(pyrazolyl)borates and -methanes the ability to function as tridentate nitrogen ligands with hemilabile character, but the additional phosphine donor site grants them bifunctional...

INTRODUCTION Emulsion polymerization yielding polymer latexes, is carried out on a vast scale. The use of water as a dispersion medium offers a unique combination of features, such as effective heat transfer, effective stabilization of polymer particles by surfactants, and environmental friendliness. By contrast to polymerization in solution or in the bulk, in emulsion polymerization a large po...

A series of block copolymers bearing a single amino in-chain functionality was synthesized via anionic polymerization of styrene and ethylene oxide. By means of both a conventional and a continuous setup, living polystyrene was quantitatively end functionalized with an oxirane (DBAG) prior to the polymerization of the poly(ethylene oxide) segment. The in-chain amine was conjugated with a fluore...

The tridentate ligand 2,6-bis(3,5-diphenylpyrazol-1-ylmethyl)pyridine, abbreviated as 2,6-[(3,5-ph₂pz-CH₂)₂-py], a new pyridine-pyrazole derivative, was prepared from 2,6-bis(bromomethyl)pyridine and 3,5-diphenylpyrazole. The ligand was characterized by means of elemental analyses, ATR-IR, ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray crystallography. Using this ligand, a new mononuclea...

One of the most efficient and versatile ways to synthesize polyolefin nanocomposites is the in-situ polymerization of olefins in the presence of nano particles by metallocene catalysts. Metallocene/methylaluminoxane (MAO) catalysts are soluble in hydrocarbons and therefore they can be absorbed perfectly in solution onto the surface of particles or fibers and after addition of ethene or propene ...

a series of ethylene-propylene-2-ethylidenebicyclo [2.2.1] hept.5-ene terpolymers (epdm) have been prepared using a vocl3/al2et3cl3 catalyst under various al/v ratios and diene concentrations via solution polymerization and characterized by ftir, mooney viscosity (ml1+4,125oc), and thermal gravimetery analyzing. the polymerization yield was seen to increase with augmentation of the al/v ratio a...
