  • Patent number: 9062025
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a supported catalyst for olefin polymerization to which a novel transition metal compound and a co-catalyst compound are bound, and a preparation method for polyolefin using the supported catalyst. The transition metal compound bound to the catalyst of the present invention provides high activity for olefin-based monomers in heterogeneous reaction as well as in homogeneous system. Particularly, a polyolefin with higher molecular weight can be prepared by using the supported catalyst containing the transition metal compound bound to a support, rather than using the novel transition metal compound in a non-supported status, or the conventional transition metal compound in a supported or non-supported status.

  • Patent number: 8916662
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a preparation method for olefin-diene copolymer that comprises polymerizing at least one olefin-based monomer and at least one diene-based monomer in the presence of a catalyst comprising a novel transition metal compound. Using the novel transition metal compound as a catalyst, the preparation method for olefin-diene copolymer according to the present invention can not only acquire high catalytic activity for copolymerization of the olefin and diene monomers to achieve high process efficiency but allow it to easily control the fine-structure characteristics of the copolymer, thereby providing an olefin-diene copolymer having desired properties with ease.
