  • Patent number: 7648937
    Abstract: A catalyst system capable of producing a cyclic olefin polymer having a polar functional group and a high molecular weight with a high yield in which a catalyst is not deactivated due to polar functional groups of monomers, and a method of producing polymers using the same are provided. The catalyst system for polymerization of olefin according to the present invention has good thermal and chemical stability, and thus, in the method of preparing polyolefin using the catalyst system, the deactivation of a catalyst due to a polar functional group of the monomer can be prevented, and thus a high yield of the cyclic olefin polymer with a high molecular weight can be obtained when a ratio of the catalyst to the monomer is 1:5000, and the removal of a catalyst residue is not required.

  • Patent number: 7629481
    Abstract: Provided are a bridged metallocene compound particularly suitable for copolymerization of ethylene and alpha-olefin or cyclic olefin, a process of preparing the metallocene compound, and a process of preparing polyolefin using the metallocene compound. The bridged metallocene compound has low steric hindrance and good (co)polymerization activity, and thus, exhibits good activity in copolymerization of ethylene and alpha-olefin such as 1-hexene or 1-octene. Furthermore, the process of preparing the bridged metallocene compound is simplified, and thus, suitable for mass production.

  • Publication number: 20090192277
    Abstract: A method of producing a cyclic olefin polymer having a polar functional group and a high molecular weight with a high yield in which a catalyst is not deactivated due to polar functional groups, moisture and oxygen is provided. According to the olefin polymerization method, deactivation of a catalyst due to polar functional groups of monomers can be prevented, and thus a polyolefin having a high molecular weight can be prepared with a high yield, and the ratio of catalyst to monomer can be less than 1/5000 due to good activity of the catalyst, and thus removal of catalyst residues is not required.

  • Patent number: 7244805
    Abstract: Provided are a bimetallic zinc complex and a method of producing polycarbonate, including polymerizing an epoxy compound and carbon dioxide using the bimetallic zinc complex. The bimetallic zinc complex according to the present invention has a distance between zinc-zinc atoms, which is maintained in a limited range regardless of its concentration in a reaction medium for the polymerization. Thus, the bimetallic zinc complex can have a polymerization activity even at a high ratio of monomer/catalyst, thereby reducing a catalyst amount to be used, which is economically advantageous. Further, the bimetallic zinc complex can produce a high molecular weight polycarbonate.
