Patent number: 4534953Abstract: A process for preparing solid titanium trichloride useful for the polymerization of an .alpha.-olefin, which comprises precipitating violet-colored fine solid particles of titanium trichloride at a temperature of not higher than 150.degree. C. from a liquid of titanium trichloride liquefied in the presence of an ether, characterized in that after the amount of the precipitated violet-colored fine solid particles of titanium trichloride reaches at least 80% based on the total amount of titanium trichloride in the system, titanium tetrachloride is added in an amount within a molar ratio of from 0.2 to 10 based on the total amount of titanium trichloride in the system, followed by aging at a temperature of from 60.degree. to 120.degree. C.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 1983Date of Patent: August 13, 1985Assignee: Mitsubishi Chemical Industries, Ltd.Inventors: Nobuaki Goko, Yumito Uehara

Patent number: 4492787Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for producing a polypropylene-ethylene block copolymer by a continuous multi-stage polymerization comprising a first stage in which polypropylene is polymerized in a first polymerization vessel in the presence of a propylene polymerization catalyst, and a second stage in which propylene and ethylene are copolymerized in a second polymerization vessel, wherein the polypropylene slurry discharged from the first polymerization vessel is supplied to a concentrator to separate said slurry into a concentrated polypropylene slurry and a supernatant liquid, the concentrated polypropylene slurry is then introduced through an upper part of a hydraulic sedimentation classifier to be contacted with a countercurrent of the upward flowing of the supernatant fluid introduced through a lower part of said classifier to obtain hydraulically sedimented polypropylene, and non-hydraulically sedimented polypropylene; the thus obtained hydraulically-sedimented polypropylene is then supplieType: GrantFiled: August 30, 1982Date of Patent: January 8, 1985Assignee: Mitsubishi Chemical Industries LimitedInventors: Ryokichi Takashima, Nobuaki Goko, Yumito Uehara, Yasuhiro Nishihara, Hidetoshi Yamamoto

Patent number: 4200717Abstract: A solid titanium trichloride, produced by precipitation from a homogeneous solution or mixture with an ether, is treated by prepolymerization with propylene at a partial pressure of less than 1 kg/cm.sup.2. The pretreated titanium trichloride containing a propylene polymer is then admixed with an organoaluminum compound and the admixture is used as a catalyst in the polymerization of propylene.Type: GrantFiled: March 27, 1978Date of Patent: April 29, 1980Assignee: Mitsubishi Chemical Industries, Ltd.Inventors: Toshizo Abe, Nobuaki Goko, Yasuhiro Nishihara, Yukimasa Matuda

Patent number: 4117219Abstract: A process for producing stabilized polyolefins comprising adding an epoxide to a polyolefin slurry obtained through polymerization of .alpha.-olefins in the presence of a catalyst containing a halide of a transition metal and an organoaluminum compound to render the catalyst remaining in the polymer inactive, and then subjecting the polyolefin slurry after the above inactivation treatment to an evaporation treatment. The process is extremely simple and results in polyolefins and molded products which are highly stable against discoloration and heat.Type: GrantFiled: August 1, 1977Date of Patent: September 26, 1978Assignee: Mitsubishi Chemical Industries LimitedInventors: Genjiro Kakogawa, Tetsumi Suzuki, Nobuaki Goko, Koji Mukuraguchi
