Effect of hydrogen on the ethylene polymerization process over Ziegler–Natta catalysts supported on MgCl2(THF)2. I. Studies of the chain‐transfer rea…
2001
The effect of hydrogen on the molecular weight of polyethylene obtained over vanadium catalysts (based on VCl4 and VOCl3) supported on MgCl2(THF)2 was studied and the results were compared to those obtained for similar titanium catalysts. It was confirmed that the dependencies of the transfer reaction on the hydrogen concentration are a half‐order in all investigated systems. However, the transition metal of the catalytic site affects the ratio of the transfer rate with hydrogen to the propagation rate (ktr,H/kp) and the results showed that hydrogen is a more effective agent of polyethylene molecular weight control in vanadium‐based systems as compared to the titanium catalyst.

A series of group 4 metal complexes M(η5:η1:η1-C5Me4SiMe2NCH2CH2X)R2 (M = Ti; R = Me, CH2Ph; M = Zr, Hf; R = Me, Et, nPr, nBu, CH2Ph, CH2SiMe3, Ph) containing the tridentate-linked amido−tetramethy...
Structural flexibility of bis(phenoxyimine) titanium complexes in the early stages of olefin polymerization process: a DFT study
2010
The behaviors of three structurally similar salan- and phenoxyimine-based catalysts activated by perfluorophenylborate were compared in the early stages of ethylene polymerization. It was found that moderate modification of the ligand structure can dramatically reduce the interactions between the cationic active site and the counteranion and, as a result, decrease the theoretically calculated upper bound to the ion separation barrier from 15 to 2 kcal/mol. The interactions between the ions in the ion pair have further repercussions on the structure of the active sites (octahedral vs square pyramid), transition states and thus the insertion barriers.
Diene-Containing Half-Sandwich MoIII Complexes as Ethylene Polymerization Catalysts: Experimental and Theoretical Studies
2001
International audience; Seventeen-electron compounds of Mo III having the general formula [(h 5-C 5 R 5)Mo(h 4-diene)X 2 ] (R H, Me; diene butadiene, iso-prene, or 2,3-dimethylbutadiene; X Cl, CH 3) are a new class of ethylene polymerization catalysts. The polyethy-lene obtained shows a bimodal distribution , the major weight fraction being characterized by very long (M around 10 6) and highly linear polymer chains. The newly prepared pentamethylcyclo-pentadienyl (Cp*) derivatives are more active than the cyclopentadienyl (Cp) derivatives, but much less active than previously investigated niobium III compounds having the same stoichiometry. On the other hand, the turnover frequency of the a…
Sol–gel material as a support of organometallic catalyst for ethylene polymerization
2008
Abstract The sol–gel procedure was applied to obtain powdery materials with different structures and morphology. It was possible to produce almost non-porous silica powder, with an extremely low surface area (ca. 4 m 2 /g) and very high uniformity of spherical particles as well as materials with various uniformity of particles and different porosity, most likely associated with increasing pore volume. Dependent on the properties of the carrier, the resulting supported vanadium catalysts (VOCl 3 /AlEt 2 Cl) showed significant differences concerning activity and stability. It was confirmed that improved hydrophobicity of the carrier’s surface may be useful and improve the activity of the syst…
Enhancing performance of α‐diiminonickel precatalyst for ethylene polymerization by substitution with the 2,4‐bis(4,4'‐dimethoxybenzhydryl)‐6‐methylp…
2020
High activities in ethylene polymerization predetermine α‐diiminonickel precatalysts for potential industrial applications. In our study, we have synthesized and characterized a series of unsymmetrical 1‐(2,4‐bis(4,4′‐dimethoxybenzhydryl)‐6‐MeC6H2N)‐2‐arylimino‐acenaphthylene nickel(II) halides. The single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction study of representative compounds reveals distorted tetrahedral geometry. On activation with either Me2AlCl or modified methylaluminoxane, these nickel complexes exhibit high activities of the order of 106 g of PE (mol of Ni)−1 h−1 and produce polyethylene of generic application characterized by high molecular weight, narrow molecular weight distribution, and mod…
A practical ethylene polymerization for vinyl-polyethylenes: synthesis, characterization and catalytic behavior of α,α’-bisimino-2,3:5,6- bis(pentame…
2016
A series of α,α′-bis(arylimino)-2,3:5,6-bis(pentamethylene)pyridyliron chlorides was synthesized in a one-pot reaction and characterized by FT-IR and elemental analysis as well as X-ray crystallography for one representative iron complex, where the Fe center adopts a distorted square pyramidal geometry with three coordinating nitrogen and two chlorine atoms. The iron precatalysts, upon treatment with either methylaluminoxane (MAO) or modified methylaluminoxane (MMAO), exhibit high activities in the range of 107 g of PE per mol of Fe per h toward ethylene polymerization, yielding highly linear and, more importantly, vinyl-polyethylenes. The correlation between the structural features of iron…

Nośnikowy katalizator wanadocenowy z udziałem cieczy jonowych w polimeryzacji etylenu
2018
W pracy zsyntezowano szereg układów SILP z katalizatorem wanadocenowym – Cp2VCl2 poprzez immobilizację cieczy jonowych na różne rodzaje krzemionek, różniących się powierzchnią właściwą i wielkością porów, które modyfikowano wybranym związkiem glinoorganicznym – AlEtCl2 lub AlEt2Cl. Zsyntezowane układy analizowano metodami: FTIR, analiza elementarna, BET, AAS i SEM. Każdy z otrzymanych układów SILP był aktywny w polimeryzacji etylenu, niezależnie od ilości i rodzaju zastosowanego aktywatora (AlEtCl2 lub AlEt2Cl). Najwyższą aktywność w polimeryzacji etylenu osiągnięto wobec układu SILP z udziałem krzemionki o bardzo regularnej morfologii, gdzie do utworzenia etylochloroglinianowych anionów pi…
2-(1-Aryliminoethyl)-9-arylimino-5,6,7,8- tetrahydrocycloheptapyridyl iron(II) dichloride: synthesis, characterization, and the highly active and tun…
2014
A series of 2-(1-arylimino)ethyl-9-arylimino-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrocycloheptapyridine derivatives was synthesized and fully characterized, and thereafter reacted with iron dichloride to form their corresponding iron(II) complexes. The single crystals of representative organic and iron complex compounds were obtained and analyzed by the X-ray diffraction analysis, indicating the distorted bipyramidal geometry around the iron core. Moreover, DFT calculations were performed on selected species to determine their structural features. On treatment with either MAO or MMAO, all iron complex pre-catalysts showed high activities (up to 1.56 × 10(7) gPE mol(-1)(Fe) h(-1)) toward ethylene polymerization. …
