Publication number: 20100048926Abstract: The present invention relates to a catalyst system which is a mixture of at least two catalytic species, the first catalytic species being a dehydrogenation catalyst and the second catalytic species being an epoxidation catalyst and comprising silver. The present invention also relates to a process for the production of epoxides, in particular a process for the production of an epoxide from an alkane or a mixture comprising an alkane and an alkene, which process comprises contacting said alkane or mixture comprising said alkane and said alkene and a source of oxygen with such a catalyst system comprising a mixture of at least two catalytic species, the first catalytic species providing dehydrogenation activity and the second catalytic species providing epoxidation activity and comprising silver.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 10, 2008Publication date: February 25, 2010Applicant: Centre National De La Recherche Scientifique ( C.N.R.S.)Inventors: Jean-Marie Basset, Jean-Richard Llinas, Mathias Mauvezin, Mostafa Taoufik, Jean Thivolle-Cazat

Publication number: 20090215972Abstract: A process for the polymerisation of ethylene or the copolymerisation of ethylene and alpha-olefins in the presence of a catalyst system comprising—as components (a) a transition metal compound, (b) a non-aluminoxane activator, and (c) optionally a support, comprises the use of a prepolymer prepared by contact of the catalyst components with ethylene and/or one of more alpha-olefins at a temperature in the range 60° C. to 100° C. The prepolymer may be isolated or used in situ for the polymerisation of ethylene or the copolymerisation of ethylene and alpha-olefins in particular 1-hexene. By use of the process thermal stability of the catalyst is improved leading to increased activity without any deterioration in polymer morphology.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 15, 2006Publication date: August 27, 2009Inventors: Yahya Ahmad Banat, Jean-Richard Llinas, Sergio Mastroianni, Gunter Weickert, Joelle Marie-Louise Collomb
