  • Publication number: 20230406965
    Abstract: A spherical carrier for olefin polymerization catalysts has at least one magnesium-containing compound having a structure represented by formula (1). The spherical carrier has a relatively good particle morphology, and substantially no abnormally morphological particles will appear. A method for preparing the spherical carrier can be used to prepare a carrier having a small particle size and greatly expands the particle size range of the preparable carrier. When the catalyst prepared by using the carrier is used for olefin polymerization, polymerization activity is good, substantially no abnormally morphological material is present, and hydrogen response is good.

  • Patent number: 9951157
    Abstract: Spherical carriers for an olefin polymerization catalyst, catalyst components, catalysts, and preparation methods therefor are disclosed. The method for preparing the spherical carriers comprises the following steps: (1) reacting, in the presence of at least one polymeric dispersion stabilizer, a magnesium halide with an organic compound containing active hydrogen to form a complex solution; (2) reacting said complex solution with an alkylene oxide-type compound to directly precipitate solid particles; and (3) recovering the solid particles to obtain spherical carriers. When a catalyst prepared by using the present spherical carrier is used in propylene polymerization, said catalyst exhibits high polymerization activity and high stereo-directing ability.
