Polypropylene and poly(ethylene-co-1-octene) effective synthesis with diamine-bis(phenolate) complexes: Effect of complex structure on catalyst activ…
2017
A series of group 4 metal complexes bearing amine-bis(phenolate) ligands with the amino side-arm donor: (μ-O)[Me2N(CH2)2N(CH2-2-O-3,5-tBu2-C6H2)2ZrCl]2 (1a), R2N(CH2)2N(CH2-2-O-3-R1-5-R2-C6H2)2TiCl2 (R = Me, R1, R2 = tBu (2a), R = iPr, R1, R2 = tBu (2b), R = iPr, R1 = tBu, R2 = OMe (2c)), and Me2N(CH2)2N(CH2-2-O-3,5-tBu2-C6H2)(CH2-2-O-C6H4)TiCl2 (2d) are used in ethylene and propylene homopolymerization, and ethylene/1-octene copolymerization. All complexes, upon their activation with Al(iBu)3/Ph3CB(C6F5)4, exhibit reasonable catalytic activity for ethylene homo- and copolymerization giving linear polyethylene with high to ultra-high molecular weight (600·× 103–3600·× 103 g/mol). The activi…
Polymerization of ethylene by oxide-supported titanium halide catalyst: kinetic model with a deactivation of active species
2000
Abstract The effect of the calcination temperature of alumina, which was then used as a support for a titanium halide catalyst [TiCl4/Et2AlCl], on the catalyst activity in ethylene polymerization was investigated. α-Al2O3 was found to make a more advantageous catalyst support as compared to γ-Al2O3 despite the fact that the former offered a clearly lower specific surface area and its content of surface OH groups was inferior. The ethylene polymerization in the presence of the catalytic system on different alumina supports was investigated on the basis of a proposed kinetic model, taking into consideration the deactivation of active sites in the process. The improved activity was found to re…
Dichlorovanadium(IV) diamine-bis(phenolate) complexes for ethylene (co)polymerization and 1-olefin isospecific polymerization
2018
Abstract Two vanadium complexes bearing amine-bis(phenolate) ligands with the amino side-arm donor, [V{Me2NCH2CH2N(CH2-2-O-3,5-tBu2-C6H2)2}Cl2] (1) and [V{Me2NCH2CH2N(CH2-2-O-3,5-tBu2-C6H2)(CH2-2-O-C6H4)}Cl2] (2), were synthesised and characterized by FTIR and 1H NMR spectroscopy. Upon activation with Al(iBu)3/Ph3CB(C6F5)4, these complexes became active catalysts for 1-octene polymerization giving highly stereoregular polymers (mmmm ∼ 90%) having regioirregularly arranged units. The catalytic activity of the catalysts in ethylene homo- and copolymerization, and their ability to incorporate a comonomer were highly dependent on both the activator type and the complex structure. 1/EtAlCl2 exhi…
Ziegler–Natta catalysts based on vanadium halides: a DFT study
2003
Abstract Ziegler–Natta ethylene insertion into the carbon–metal bond for a number of fragments containing vanadium on different oxidation states as well as the halogen ligands has been studied by means of DFT. It is shown that the complexation and insertion energies are strongly influenced by the charge on the transition metal atom and, to some extent, by the electronegativity of the halogen atom. Complexation energy varies in the range −129 to −159 kJ/mol for charged species and −64 to −77 kJ/mol for neutral ones. Insertion energy follows a similar pattern and ranges from −28 to −62 and −82 to −100 kJ/mol, respectively. The calculated values are compared with the experimental results and d…
Marketing analysis of JJK Jyväskylä, a first division football club in Finland
2010
ABSTRACT Master’s Thesis, 78 pages, 3 appendices Sport Marketing 2010 This empirical case study investigated a First Division semi-professional football club in Finland and tried to explore interrelationships between factors that affect the marketing activities of the club. Previous research shows controversial results about how the on-field performance of a team, attendance and marketing opportunities are interconnected, which underpins the relevance of the present work. In addition, emphasis was also put on ascertaining the antecedents and level of fan satisfaction and identification towards the team, as well as discovering the relationship between them. Furthermore, the research was aime…
Synthesis and catalytic performance in ethylene and 1-octene polymerization of chlorotitanium(IV) silsesquioxane complexes. Effect of increasing liga…
2016
Abstract The series of titanasilsesquioxanes that differ in a way of binding to the transition metal ( via one, two or three oxygen atoms) and type of nonreactive substituents bonded to inorganic oxygen-silicon cage ( i -Bu, Ph, c -C 6 H 11 ) were prepared by reacting of TiCl 4 with 1 eqv. of the silsesquioxane ligand. Upon treatment with an appropriate cocatalyst, all titanium precatalysts are active in ethylene and 1-octene polymerization and produce from low to high molecular weight polyethylenes and moderately ([ mmmm ] = 44–74%) isotactic poly(1-octene)s. The influence of polymerization parameters, type of cocatalyst and the silsesquioxane structure on the catalytic behavior of the tit…
Synthesis and olefin homo- and copolymerization behavior of new vanadium complexes bearing [OSSO]-type ligands
2017
Novel vanadium complexes bearing [OSSO]-type ligands having two phenolato units linked through the –CH2S(CH2)4SCH2– (1V) or –CH2S(CH2)2SCH2– (2V) bridge are synthesized with good yields by reacting a deprotonated ligand with VCl4. They are then used in ethylene (co)polymerization after activation with EtAlCl2 and Et2AlCl. In the presence of EtAlCl2, both complexes promote ethylene polymerization with very high activities, over 4 × 107 g/(mol h), leading to PEs with high molecular weight and narrow molecular weight distribution. The prepared complexes exhibit lower activity for ethylene/1-octene copolymerization. It is also revealed that the catalyst based on the –CH2S(CH2)4SCH2– bridged com…
Microstructure of ethylene-1-hexene and ethylene-1-octene copolymers obtained over Ziegler–Natta catalysts supported on MgCl 2 (THF) 2
2001
Abstract The ethylene copolymerizations with 1-hexene or 1-octene in the presence of hydrogen using three catalysts, MgCl 2 (THF) 2 /VOCl 3 /Et 2 AlCl, MgCl 2 (THF) 2 /VCl 4 /Et 2 AlCl, MgCl 2 (THF) 2 /TiCl 4 /Et 2 AlCl, were investigated. It was found that the addition of hydrogen into the copolymerization feed reduces the molecular weight of the copolymers produced and decreases the activity of all the studied catalysts. The microstructure of the copolymers obtained was determined on the basis of 13 C NMR investigations and the reactivity ratios of the comonomers were calculated. The lack of tendency of the olefin comonomers to the creation of the polymer block was confirmed. It was found…
Effect of hydrogen on the ethylene polymerization process over Ziegler-Natta catalysts supported on MgCl2(THF)2. II. Kinetic studies
2000
This article reports on a study of the effects of hydrogen on the activity of vanadium and titanium catalysts supported on MgCl 2 (THF) 2 in ethylene polymerization. It was found that hydrogen did not change the stable nature of the active sites and the polydispersity index of the polyethylene obtained. The propagation rate, expressed as k p , was found to be independent of the presence and concentration of hydrogen, indicating that this reacting agent does not modify the reactivity of the active sites. However, the presence of hydrogen in the polymerization medium is responsible for partial deactivation of the active sites just before polymerization is initiated.
Olefin polymerization and copolymerization by complexes bearing [ONNO]-Type salan ligands: Effect of ligand structure and metal type (titanium, zirco…
2014
A series of novel titanium(IV) complexes bearing tetradentate [ONNO] salan type ligands: [Ti{2,2′-(OC6H3-5-t-Bu)2-NHRNH}Cl2] (Lig1TiCl2: R = C2H4; Lig2TiCl2: R = C4H8; Lig3TiCl2: R = C6H12) and [Ti{2,2′-(OC6H2-3,5-di-t-Bu)2-NHC6H12NH}Cl2] (Lig4TiCl2) were synthesized and used in the (co)polymerization of olefins. Vanadium and zirconium complexes: [M{2,2′-(OC6H3-3,5-di-t-Bu)2-NHC6H12NH}Cl2] (Lig4VCl2: M = V; Lig4ZrCl2: M = Zr) were also synthesized for comparative investigations. All the complexes turned out active in 1-octene polymerization after activation by MAO and/or Al(i-Bu)3/[Ph3C][B(C6F5)4]. The catalytic performance of titanium complexes was strictly dependent on their structures an…
