heterogeneous ziegler-natta and homogeneous metallocene catalysts exhibit greatly different active sitenature in olefin polymerization. in our previous study, it was reported that mgcl2-supported titanocenecatalysts can generate both ziegler-natta-type and metallocene-type active sites according to the type of activators.the dual active site nature of the supported titanocene catalysts was furt...

Copolymerization of ethylene with 1-hexene was carried out using two ansa-fluorenyl titanium derivative complexes. The substituent effect on the catalytic activity, monomer reactivity ratio and polymer property was investigated. It was found that the presence of t-Bu groups on fluorenyl ring exhibited remarkable catalytic activity and produced polymer with high molecular weight. However, these ...

Vanadium-modified (SiO2/MgO/MgCl2)•TiClx Ziegler-Natta catalysts were prepared through co-impregnation of water-soluble magnesium and vanadium salts under different pH values. Several key factors such as pH value of co-impregnation solution during catalyst preparation, catalyst performances including catalytic activity, ethylene/1-hexene copolymerization and hydrogen response were investigated....

Activities during ethylene/1-hexene copolymerization were found to increase using the mixed titania/silica-supported MAO with rac-Et[Ind]2ZrCl2 metallocene catalyst. Energy Dispersive X-ray spectorcopy (EDX) indicated that the titania was apparently located on the outer surface of silica and acted as a spacer to anchor MAO to the silica surface. IR spectra revealed the Si-O-Ti stretching at 980...

Chromium-vanadium (Cr-V) bimetallic catalysts are prepared by the introduction of vanadium into the Phillips catalyst which is one of the most significant industrial ethylene polymerization catalysts for tuning the Phillips catalyst performances and improving polyethylene properties. In the present work, titanium species were introduced into the fluorine-modified chromium-vanadium bimetallic ca...

A series of novel half-zirconocenes containing phosphine-(thio)phenolate chelating ligands of the type Cp'Zr(thf)Cl2[X-2-R(1)-4-R(2)-6-(PPh2)C6H2] (Cp' = C5Me5, 2a: X = O, R(1) = Ph, R(2) = H; 2b: X = O, R(1) = (t)Bu, R(2) = H; 2c: X = O, R(1) = R(2) = (t)Bu; 2d: X = O, R(1) = SiMe3, R(2) = H; 2e: X = S, R(1) = SiMe3, R(2) = H; Cp' = C5H5, 3b: X = O, R(1) = (t)Bu, R(2) = H; 3c: X = O, R(1) = R(...
