  • Patent number: 9725472
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel metallocene compound, a catalyst composition including the same, and a method of preparing an olefinic polymer by using the same. The metallocene compound according to the present invention and the catalyst composition comprising the same can be used for producing olefinic polymers, have outstanding polymerizing ability, and can produce olefinic polymers of ultra high molecular weight. In particular, when the metallocene compound according to the present invention is employed, an olefinic polymer of ultra high molecular weight can be obtained because it shows high polymerization activity even when it is supported on a carrier and maintains high activity even in the presence of hydrogen because of its low hydrogen reactivity.

  • Patent number: 9670297
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to a silica support for a metallocene catalyst used for olefin polymerization, a preparation method thereof, a metallocene catalyst using the same, and olefin polymer. Specifically, according to the present invention, a silica support used for preparing a metallocene supported catalyst is treated with a specific halogenized metal compound, thereby diversifying reaction sites to a cocatalyst when preparing a metallocene catalyst, and thus, the molecular weight distribution of produced olefin polymer may be much broadened and polymer having high molecular weight may be obtained compared to the existing support, even if the same metallocene catalyst is supported.

  • Patent number: 9657119
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a preparation method of a highly active supported metallocene catalyst which can prepare a polyolefin of high bulk density. More specifically, the present invention provides a method of preparing the supported metallocene catalyst in which one or more metallocene catalysts are loaded on the silica carrier of which the inside is penetrated by more cocatalyst than the prior art and the outside is attached with a substantial amount of the cocatalyst. The catalyst according to the present invention can prepare a polyolefin polymer with improved bulk density and efficiency while maintaining its highly active catalytic characteristic.

  • Patent number: 9644064
    Abstract: The present description relates to an olefin block copolymer with excellences in elasticity, heat resistance, and processability. The olefin block copolymer comprises a plurality of blocks or segments, each comprising an ethylene or propylene repeating unit and an ?-olefin repeating unit at different mole fractions. The olefin block copolymer comprises polymer chains containing 20 to 100 short-chain branches (SCBs) per 1,000 carbon atoms. A point where a first derivative of the number Y of the SCBs per 1,000 carbon atoms of each polymer chain with respect to the molecular weight X of the polymer chain is 0 exists between the minimum and maximum values of the molecular weight X.
