  • Patent number: 11198820
    Abstract: Provided is a conversion process for an organic oil, relating to the field of biomass utilization, energy and chemical industry. The conversion process is carried out in presence of an aqueous slurry and a catalyst selected from the group consisting of an iron oxide compound, a waste agent resulting from use of an iron oxide compound as desulfurizer, and a regeneration product of the waste agent, under a controlled molar ratio of iron element to sulfur element. It is found that free radical condensation polymerization of organic oil during cracking process can be blocked effectively by using carbonylation, and hydrogenation is achieved with active hydrogen produced from the conversion of CO and water. In the conversion process, organic material, especially biomass solid, can be directly converted without dehydration, and water can be additionally added to the biomass liquid or the mineral oil.

  • Patent number: 10246536
    Abstract: Compared to the prior art, this invention provides a functionalized highly syndiotactic polystyrene, comprising a repeating unit having a structure represented by formula (I), or comprising a repeating unit having a structure represented by formula (I) and a repeating unit having a structure represented by formula (II). It is indicated by the experimental results that the syndiotacticity selectivity of the highly syndiotactic polymer provided by this invention is no less than 90%, and the proportion of the repeating unit having a structure represented by formula (I) in the polymer may be arbitrarily adjusted and may be up to 100%. Meanwhile, the oxygen- or sulfur-containing groups in the polymer may increase the polarity of the highly syndiotactic polystyrene so as to increase the blendability of the highly syndiotactic polystyrene with other polymers.

  • Patent number: 9896519
    Abstract: This invention provides a metallocene complex and the preparation method thereof and a catalyst composition. This catalyst composition comprises a metallocene complex represented by formula (I) and an organic boron salt. Compared to the prior art, the catalyst used in this invention, which is the metallocene complex represented by formula (I), does not contain a group bonding between the heterocyclic fused cyclopentadienyl ring and the transition metal, and the coordination space of the central metal has a large opening degree. Therefore, the catalytic activity for more sterically hindered monomers is higher, and the comonomer incorporation is also higher. Furthermore, the metallocene complex represented by formula (I) used in this invention is a heterocyclic ring fused cyclopentadienyl ligand. Heterocyclic rings have relatively strong electron-donating capacity.

  • Publication number: 20160229928
    Abstract: This invention provides a metallocene complex and the preparation method thereof and a catalyst composition. This catalyst composition comprises a metallocene complex represented by formula (I) and an organic boron salt. Compared to the prior art, the catalyst used in this invention, which is the metallocene complex represented by formula (I), does not contain any side chain, and the coordination space of the central metal has a large opening degree. Therefore, the catalytic activity for more sterically hindered monomers is higher, and the comonomer incorporation is also higher. Furthermore, the metallocene complex represented by formula (I) used in this invention is a heterocyclic ring fused cyclopentadienyl ligand. Heterocyclic rings have relatively strong electron-donating capacity. By fusing a cyclopentadienyl group using heterocyclic rings, it is possible to change the electronic effect of the metal center and in turn increase the activity of catalyst.
