  • Publication number: 20160002372
    Abstract: In the present disclosure, a Ziegler-Natta catalyst composition for the polymerization of olefin monomers to produce polyolefin with controlled molecular weight distribution is provided wherein said controlled molecular weight distribution ranges from narrow to broad. The desired control over the molecular weight distribution of polyolefin is accomplished by using a Ziegler-Natta catalyst composition having enhanced self-extinguishing property. In the Zeigler-Natta catalyst composition of the present disclosure, in addition to a titanium and magnesium containing pro-catalyst component, a mixture of tri-alkyl aluminum compounds as a co-catalyst mixture is used. The particular combination of tri-alkyl aluminum compounds in a pre-determined weight proportion provides desirable control over the molecular weight distribution of polyolefin.

  • Publication number: 20150073108
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a high surface area silicon derivative free magnesium-titanium catalyst system for ethylene polymerization comprising: magnesium mixed alkoxide and titanium chloride. The present invention also provides a simple process for the preparation of high surface area silicon derivative free magnesium-titanium catalyst system for ethylene polymerization by reacting magnesium alkoxide precursor with titanium compound using dialkyl dialkoxy silane as external donor. The invention further relates to the process for ethylene polymerization using the silicon derivative free magnesium-titanium catalyst system and polyethylene produced by the catalyst system having narrow molecular weight distribution and higher bulk density.

  • Patent number: 8283424
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the synthesis of a Ziegler Natta procatalyst, the process comprising first treating magnesium alkoxide with a twice used mixed solvent of TiCl4 and chlorobenzene to form a first stage product, then treating the first stage product with a once used mixed solvent of TiCl4 and chlorobenzene to form a second stage product and finally treating the second stage product with mixed solvent recovered by treatment of effluent from the first treatment with benzoyl chloride so as to convert contaminant of formula TiCl3OR in the effluent to an addition complex which is precipitated, filtered off and hydrolyzed to recover ethyl benzoate and to form Ti(OH)4 as a side product, the product after final treatment being subjected to a plurality of successive washing steps with used as well as recovered hexane.
