Copolymerization of ethylene with norbornene or 1-octene using supported ionic liquid systems

2016

Copolymerization of ethylene with norbornene (E/NB) and ethylene with 1-octene (E/Oct) is performed using supported ionic liquid (SIL) systems, in which metallocene (Cp2VCl2) or post-metallocene [VCl2(salenCl2)] vanadium catalysts are immobilized in pyridinium chloroaluminate ionic liquid supported on silica. The studied SIL catalysts show higher activities as well as stability than their non-supported analogues. In addition, higher activities and better comonomer incorporation are observed for norbornene (above 30 mol%). The comonomer incorporation has considerable influence on copolymer molecular weight (M w), melting temperature, crystallinity degree, and microstructure of the copolymers…

Copolymerization of Vinylidene Fluoride and Acrylic Acid in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide

2010

The free-radical copolymerization of vinylidene fluoride (VDF) and acrylic acid (AA) was carried out in supercritical carbon dioxide using both precipitation and dispersion techniques in the presence of an ammonium carboxylate perfluoropolyether compound. Formation of a copolymer was confirmed by variable contact time CP MAS NMR spectroscopy. Macromolecular matrices were significantly enriched in AA with respect to the initial feed composition and we found that the nonfluorinated monomer has a much higher reactivity ratio with respect to VDF. The cumulative concentration, crystallinity, and water affinity of the synthesized copolymers could be modified changing the initial feed composition,…

Vanadium complex with tetradentate [O,N,N,O] ligand supported on magnesium type carrier for ethylene homopolymerization and copolymerization

2010

Immobilization of 1,2‐cyclohexylenebis(5‐chlorosalicylideneiminato)vanadium dichloride on the magnesium support obtained in the reaction of MgCl2·3.4EtOH with Et2AlCl gives a highly active precursor for ethylene homopolymerization and its copolymerization with 1‐octene. This catalyst exhibits the highest activity in conjunction with MAO, but it is also highly active with AlMe3 as a cocatalyst. On the other hand, when combined with chlorinated alkylaluminum compounds, Et2AlCl and EtAlCl2, it gives traces of polyethylene. Moreover, its catalytic activity is strongly affected by the reaction temperature: it increased with rising polymerization temperature from 20 °C to 60 °C. The kinetic curve…

Facile and efficient chemical functionalization of aliphatic polyesters by cross metathesis

2016

International audience; An effective preparation of new tailor-made macromolecular materials via a combination of two (atom-efficient) catalytic transformations is reported. First, new aliphatic polyesters with alternated composition have been prepared using a salen aluminum catalyst system. Next, the pendant vinyl moieties in those copolymers have been selectively transformed into various functional groups by metathesis in the presence of homogeneous Grubbs catalysts. The latter metathesis reaction has been optimized in terms of catalytic activity and selectivity, to define the conditions for an effective and safe procedure that does not affect the macromolecular architecture. All polymer …

Copolymerization of ethylene with 1‐hexene over metallocene catalyst supported on complex of magnesium chloride with tetrahydrofuran

2004

The study of ethylene/1-hexene copolymerization with the zirconocene catalyst, bis(cyclopentadienyl)zirconium dichloride (Cp 2 ZrCl 2 )/methylaluminoxane (MAO), anchored on a MgCl 2 (THF) 2 support was carried out. The influence of 1-hexene concentration in the feed on catalyst productivity and comonomer reactivity as well as other properties was investigated. Additionally, the effect of support modification by the organoaluminum compounds [(MAO, trimethylaluminum (AlMe 3 ), or diethylaluminum chloride (Et 2 AlCl)] on the behavior of the MgCl 2 (THF) 2 /Cp 2 ZrCl/MAO catalyst in the copolymerization process and on the properties of the copolymers was explored. Immobilization of the Cp 2 ZrC…

Tri-alkenyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes as comonomers and active center modifiers in ethylene copolymerization catalyzed by bis(phenoxy-imi…

2018

Abstract In copolymerization of ethylene (E) with tri-alkenyl-silsesquioxanes (POSS-6-3 and POSS-10-3) were used bis(phenoxy-imine) titanium, zirconium and vanadium catalysts, as well as salen-type vanadium catalysts. There were obtained copolymers with POSS-R-3 units as side branches of polymer chains. The type of employed bis(phenoxy-imine) titanium, zirconium and vanadium catalysts and salen-type catalyst of vanadium determined the copolymer chain termination reactions, as well as the mechanism of modification of the active species by the POSS-R-3 comonomer. POSS-R-3 comonomers caused selective poisoning of bis(phenoxy-imine) zirconium catalyst and they provided protection against tight …

Oxovanadium(IV) complexes with [ONNO]-chelating ligands as catalysts for ethylene homo- and copolymerization

2014

Oxovanadium(IV) complexes with (ONNO)-type tetradentate Schiff base ligands: salen, acacen, aceten, acetph (H2salen = N,N'-ethylenebis(salicylideneimine), H2aceten = N,N'-ethylenebis(2-hydroxyacetophenoneimine), H2acacen = N,N'-ethylenebis(acetylacetonimine), H 2 acetph = N ,N ' -phenylene-1,2-b is (2-hydroxyacetophenoneimine)), were the first time investi- gated in ethylene polymerization and ethylene/1-octene copo- lymerization processes. In general, all these complexes are moderately active precatalyst for ethylene polymerization up- on activation with EtAlCl2 and they give high molecular weight linear polyethylenes. Their activity in copolymeriza- tion was found relatively low. However,…

Ethylene/POSS copolymerization behavior of postmetallocene catalysts and copolymer characteristics

2017

Copolymerization of ethylene with iso-butyl substituted monoalkenyl(siloxy)- or monoalkenylsilsesquioxane (POSS) comonomers over bis(phenoxy-imine) and salen-type titanium and zirconium catalysts was studied. It was found that the polyreaction performance was significantly depended by the kind of the catalyst and by the structure and concentration of POSS in the feed. The POSS comonomer was efficiently incorporated into the polymer chain at up to 0.2 mol %. The differences in the copolymer compositions as the functions of the catalyst kind and the POSS comonomer were observed, including the varied number-average sequence length of ethylene and unsaturated end groups, as determined by 1H NMR…
