Continuous Solution Polymerization of Ethylene Using Metallocene Catalyst System, Zirconocene Dichloride/Methylaluminoxane/Trimethylaluminum

Abstract

A high-pressure, high-temperature continuous stirred-tank reactor (CSTR) system having approximately an ideal residence time distribution (RTD) has been set up for the polymerization of olefins utilizing metallocene catalysts. Preliminary experiments of ethylene polymerized with the metallocene catalyst system zirconocene dichloride (Cp2ZrCl2)/modified-methylaluminoxane (MMAO)/trimethylaluminum (TMA) in toluene at 1500 psig have been carried …
