  • Patent number: 8513447
    Abstract: Trialkyl metal compounds, such as trialkyl gallium and indium compounds, are prepared in high yield and high purity by the addition of a trialkyl aluminum compound to a mixture prepared by adding a metal trihalide, e.g., GaCl3 or InCl3, and a halide salt of a monovalent metal to an ionic liquid such as a molten salt of the formula M[AlRnX(4-n)] wherein M is a monovalent metal such as Li, Na, K or Cs, R is an alkyl group X is a halide and n is a number from 1 to 3, typically at temperatures of from 75 to 160° C.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8450510
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an amine bridged metallocene catalyst, a method for producing the same, and a method for producing an ethylene-alpha olefin copolymer, which comprises polymerizing ethylene and alpha olefin in the presence of an olefin polymerization catalyst composition including a metallocene catalyst. The amine bridged metallocene catalyst may be produced by reacting one or more of substituted or unsubstituted cyclopentadiene and substituted or unsubstituted fluorene with amine to bridge them with nitrogen, and reacting them with a transition metal to coordinate them.

  • Patent number: 8431660
    Abstract: The present invention provides a non-metallocene transition metal compound that is easily produced, includes a tetrazol group having the high polymerization activity and high temperature stability in the polymerization of olefins, and a catalytic composition that includes the transition metal compound and a cocatalyst. In addition, the present invention provides a method for efficiently producing an olefin homopolymer or copolymer by using the catalytic composition.

  • Patent number: 8057714
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a synthesis method of metal cyclopentadienide by direct reaction of dicyclopentadiene with a group 1 metal in the presence of an aprotic solvent. Unlike the conventional method depending on retro Diels-Alder reaction of dicyclopentadiene to generate indirectly cyclopentadiene, the method of the present invention favors generation of cyclopentadiene and metal cyclopentadienide as well by adding dicyclopentadiene directly when the reaction temperature reaches to the boiling point of a reaction solvent.
