  • Patent number: 5241093
    Abstract: A process for preparing aluminophosphate compounds (and substituted derivatives) of the structural type VFI. This preparation process is characterized in that the speed of increase in temperature of the reaction mixture is greater than 250.degree. C./hour, the total time of heating of the reaction mixture, including the rise in temperature and the plateau heating, being less than one hour. The temperature of the plateau heating is between 100.degree. and 200.degree. C.The synthetic compounds in accordance with the invention possess(a) a general formula approximating to the following:1 Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 0.75-1.25 P.sub.2 O.sub.5 0-0.5 XO.sub.n/2 0-0.05 R y H.sub.2 OwhereX represents a heteroatom chosen from the group consisting of silicon, cobalt, magnesium and zinc;n is the degree of oxidation of the heteroatom X;y, the number of water molecules contained in the said compound, is greater than 0.

  • Patent number: 5055535
    Abstract: A process for the manufacture of a linear polyethylene with narrow molecular-weight distribution comprising polymerizing ethylene alone or a mixture of ethylene and an alpha-olefin in which ethylene represents at least about 70% by weight of the total monomers involved, in a gas-phase polymerization medium in the presence of a catalytic component containing at least one transition metal, magnesium, and a halogen, a co-catalyst comprising an alkylaluminum compound, and a monoether, the monoether having the general formula R'OR", wherein R' and R" are the same or different and each is a C.sub.1 to C.sub.8 linear or branched hydrocarbon radical or being a cyclic monoether with the oxygen forming a ring having 4 to 12 carbon atoms.
