ESR study on styrene polymerization with CpTiCl3/MMAO: Effect of monomer addition on catalyst activity
Abstract
An on‐line electron spin resonance (ESR) technique was applied to investigate the syndiospecific polymerization of styrene activated by the catalyst system CpTiCl3/MMAO. The measurements included trivalent titanocene concentration and monomer conversion. The activation procedure was found to have a dramatic effect on catalyst activity. Adding the reactants in the order of (MMAO + CpTiCl3) + St gave a much higher trivalent titanocene …
