摘要
Methylaluminoxane (MAO) is the most important cocatalyst of metallocene catalysts. In order to raise the hydrolysis reactions repeatability and the yield,we used the pretreated A12(SO4)3 18H2O to synthesize MAO. A few factors which influence the yield and the cocatalytic activity of MAO were discussed. The optimum condition of the reaction was obtained. The yield of MAO was raised from 40% to 49%. Synthesis of MAO: All the apparatus used was oven dried overnight and cooled under highly pure nitrogen atmosphere before use. The synthesis of MAO is carried out according to the procedure described below. 2M TMA/toluene solution was placed in a 200ml pressure balanced funnel. In a tluee necked 500ml round bottomed flask equipped with a teflon magnetic bar, the pretreated A12(SO4)3.18H2O was dispersed in dry toluene. The first neck was fitted with the pressure balanced funnel with a nitrogen outlet. The second neck was connected to nitrogen inlet. The third neck was connected to a thermowell.
