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…
Synthesis of oxide-supported vanadium catalysts and their activity in ethylene polymerization
1999
The activity of oxide-supported vanadium-based catalyst systems (VOCl 3/Et 2AlCl) in low-pressure ethylene polymerization and the properties of the resulting polyethylenes were studied in relation to the type and mode of modification of the oxide support. Alumina, silica and an un"conventional silica-type material prepared by the sol-gel process were used as supports. Results are compared with those obtained earlier with a catalyst supported on MgCl 2(THF) 2. Of the oxides studied, the silica-type sol-gel material dehydrated and subsequently modified with Et 2AlCl proved to be the best carrier for a vanadium catalyst. The polyethylene prepared by using this catalyst support was found to exh…
Silica powder obtained by sol-gel method as a support of organometallic vanadium catalyst for ethylene polymerization
2004
Sol-gel technique was employed to obtain the silica-type powder, which after modification procedure was applied as asupport of organometallic catalytic system for ethylene polymerization. The powder product was synthesized using hydrolysis and condensation of TEOS, catalyzed by ammonia. Obtained material and a reference support (commercial silica Davisil) were characterized to determine their particle size distributions, BET surface area, pore volume and diameter. Gas-phase adsorption of vanadium catalyst on analyzed support materials as well as adsorption from the solution in hexane were carried out. Both carrier materials were thermally pretreated prior catalytic systems syntheses and the…
