  • Publication number: 20160002372
    Abstract: In the present disclosure, a Ziegler-Natta catalyst composition for the polymerization of olefin monomers to produce polyolefin with controlled molecular weight distribution is provided wherein said controlled molecular weight distribution ranges from narrow to broad. The desired control over the molecular weight distribution of polyolefin is accomplished by using a Ziegler-Natta catalyst composition having enhanced self-extinguishing property. In the Zeigler-Natta catalyst composition of the present disclosure, in addition to a titanium and magnesium containing pro-catalyst component, a mixture of tri-alkyl aluminum compounds as a co-catalyst mixture is used. The particular combination of tri-alkyl aluminum compounds in a pre-determined weight proportion provides desirable control over the molecular weight distribution of polyolefin.

  • Patent number: 6969747
    Abstract: An olefin polymerization titanium catalyst. It comprises a titanium compound and an organoaluminium compound cocatalyst supported on a soluble polysulfone comprising free reactive sulfone groups. The molar ratio of titanium of aluminum is 1–10:200 and the weight ratio of titanium to polysulfone is 0.01–0.1:0.3–2.5. The process for preparing the catalyst comprises preparing a supported titanium compound by contacting a solution of a polysulfone in a halogenated or polar solvent with a titanium compound or a solution thereof in a halogenated or polar solvent in an inert atmosphere at a temperature between 10° C. and the boiling point of the solvent such that the weight ratio of titanium to polysulfone is 0.01–0.1:0.3–2.5. The supported titanium compound is mixed with an organoaluminium cocatalyst such that the molar ratio of titanium to aluminum is 1–10:200.
