Weryfikacja kinetycznego modelu polimeryzacji etylenu wobec metaloorganicznych katalizatorów wanadowych na nośniku magnezowym

1998

The kinetic studies are reviewed on low-pressure polymerization of ethylene over two types of organovanadium catalysts, viz., MgCl 2(THF) 2/VCl 4/Et 2AlCl and MgCl 2(THF) 2VOCl 3Et 2AlCl, each deposited on a magnesium carrier. The polymerization rate was found to be directly related to the catalyst and monomer concentrations (Figs. 2 and 3), unless when the access of the monomer to the reactive V-C bond is restricted by diffusion. Polymer chain termination step was found to result from the reaction of the transfer onto the monomer and to be associated with the regeneration of the active site on which a new macromolecule can be formed. A kinetic model was developed for the ethylene polymeriz…
