The properties of the catalyst such as particle size distribution, catalytic activity, hydrogen responsibility and copolymerization performance were investigated and compared with commercial catalyst (imported catalyst). Copolymerization of ethylene and 1-butylene using the catalyst was stud-ied in a pilot plant. The composition, structure and property of the copolymer were characterized by 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (13C NMR) and gel permeation chromatography-Infrared (GPC-IR), and compared with those of the copolymer obtained from a commercial catalyst. In comparison with the commercial catalyst, the novel cata-lyst had a higher activity (up to 34.6 kg·g-1) and a better particle size distribution (PSD), and produced polymers having higher bulk density (up to 0.37 g·cm-3) with less fine resin. Meanwhile, the novel catalyst showed a higher hydrogen responsibility and better copolymerization performance. The results indicated that the copolymer obtained from the novel catalyst has a higher branch in the high molecular weight fraction and lower branch in the low mo-lecular weight fraction.展开更多

Computations of stage efficiencies or height equivalent to a theoretical plate (HETP) were entirely avoided by this model. The consistency of simulated results and experimental data in conversions and concentration of each component along a column indicates that the model predicts the actual process well. The influences of operating parameters on hydrolytic conversions, such as feed molar ratios, feed locations, feed and reflux rates, heights of reactive and stripping sections, were analyzed adequately by simulating calculations. A good operating mode was then obtained, which is helpful to the development of a new process.展开更多

Complex GPC data on polypropylene synthesized by these novel catalysts were analyzed using the method of fitting the molecular weight distribution (MWD) curves with a multiple Flory-Schulz function. It was found that multiple active centers exist in these novel catalysts. Detailed study of the effects of the Ti-loadings in the catalysts on the distribution of the active centers showed that the Ti-loadings in the novel MgCl2-supported Z-N catalysts might affect the proportion of each type of active centers; and might be the main factor responsible for the effect of the Ti-loadings on the microstructure, the molecular weight and molecular weight distribution width of the resultant polymer, the catalytic activity and polymerization kinetics.展开更多

The effects of graphene feed ratio on catalyst morphology and ethylene polymerization behavior were examined. The synthesized catalyst exhibited very high activity for ethylene polymerization. The resultant polyethylene (PE)/G nanocomposites showed a layered morphology, and the graphene fillers were well dispersed in the PE matrix. In addition, the thermal stability and mechanical properties of PE were significantly enhanced with the introduction of a very small amount of G fillers (0.05 wt%). This work provides a facile approach to the production o fhigh‐performance PE.展开更多

Polyethylene glycol could solubilize crystalline magnesium chloride. The resulting solution was used for the preparation of Ziegler-Natta propylene polymerization catalysts. These catalysts are highly active and stereospecific. The relationship between the catalytic activity and the Al/Ti ratio was studied in detail.展开更多
