Advances in the catalyses of polymerizations

Abstract

Nearly all technical processes for the production of polymers are carried out in the presence of catalysts. In the case of addition polymerization reactions, two mechanisms are possible: Start of the reaction via an initiator (e.g., peroxides) or start via a true catalyst (e.g., Ziegler/ Natta systems). In both areas remarkable progress has been made: Cationic “living” polymerizations of oxacycloalkanes, group transfer polymerization, metal-catalyzed alternating copolymerization of ethylene with carbon monoxide, and metallocene-catalyzed polymerizations of alpha-olefins. The polymerization of alpha-olefins with metallocene catalysts not only leads to the improvement of well-known polymers like polyethylene and polypropylene, but also enables the production of new polymers like syndiotactic polypropylene, syndiotactic polystyrene, and cycloolefin copolymers on an industrial scale.     

New materials from new catalysts

The polyolefins, especially polypropylene and polyethylene, industry of today is very different from that of 10 years ago. The development of highly active and stereospecific catalysts, represented by Ti/Mg supported catalysts, have made the gas-phase polymerization process practical. The trend in catalyst development is shifting from an emphasis on improving the stereospecificity and activity toward improving the polymer physical properties, processability and morphology. Many hybrid thermoplastic olefins, such as high-impact copolymers, propylene–ethylene–butene terpolymers, and very low density polyethylene, have already been developed by utilizing the features of the gas-phase polymerization process. These hybrid thermoplastic olefins cover a very broad range of products. They cannot be clearly identified as polyethylenes, polypropylenes or elastomers. Incidentally, metallocene catalysts for polyolefins have been under development for the past 15 years, and are now in the early stage of commercialization. These catalysts differ significantly from the conventional heterogeneous catalysts. They can polymerize not only ethylene, propylene and other linear α-olefins, but also styrene, cycloolefins and functional monomers In addition, they can control the microstructure of polymer molecules by varying the transition metals and the cyclopentadienyl ligands. Because of these features, we have to be confident that the development of metallocene catalysts, or more widely homogeneous catalysts, may be a dominant force throughout the 1990s in the polyolefin industries.

Propylene polymerizations with a binary metallocene system—Chain shuttling caused by trimethylaluminium between active catalyst centers

Propylene was polymerized at varying trimethylaluminium (TMA) concentration with a homogeneous binary metallocene catalyst system activated by methylaluminoxane (MAO) in an attempt to better understand interactions between active catalyst sites and to clarify the role of the TMA as a chain shuttling agent. TMA‐free polymerization conditions were obtained by chemical treatment of MAO solution with 2,6‐di‐tert‐butyl‐4‐methylphenol (BHT). A binary catalyst system consisting of catalyst precursors diphenylmethyl(cyclopentadienyl)(9‐fluorenyl)zirconium dichloride ( 1 ) producing high M_w syndiotactic polypropylene and rac‐dimethylsilylbis(4‐tert‐butyl‐2‐methyl‐cyclopentadienyl)zirconium dichloride ( 2 ) producing low M_w isotactic polypropylene was investigated. At the studied polymerization conditions, chain shuttling between the active catalysts caused by TMA was confirmed. The chain shuttling reactions caused changes in catalyst activity, molecular weights, melting behavior, and polymer microstructure. We propose that TMA is capable to transfer a growing polymer chain from catalyst 2 to catalyst 1 , and a stereoblock copolymer is formed. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Copolymerization of propylene and methyl vinyl ketone with metallocene catalysts: Synthesis,properties, and thermal and photooxidation of modified polypropylene

The copolymers of propylene and methyl vinyl ketone are synthesized at 60°С by copolymerization in the propylene bulk in the presence of the polymethylaluminoxane-activated metallocene catalysts, namely, the isospecific С₂-symmetric metallocene catalyst rac-Me₂Si(2-Me-4-PhInd)₂ZrCl₂ and the syndiospecific Сs-symmetric metallocene catalyst Ph₂ССpFluZrCl₂, and characterized. It is shown that a noticeable insertion of methyl vinyl ketone into a polypropylene chain is possible during copolymerization initiated by the syndiospecific catalytic system, whereas in the case of the isospecific system, the insertion of methyl vinyl ketone is hindered. The thermal oxidation of the resulting polymers is studied. With the use of chemiluminescence, the accumulation of peroxy macroradicals under the action of daylight in samples based on isotactic and syndiotactic polypropylene is detected. It is found that even a low (0.2 mol %) content of methyl vinyl ketone endows polypropylene with the capability to undergo rapid and controlled degradation under natural conditions.

A Single-Gallery Model for the In Situ Production of Polyethylene-Clay Nanocomposites

Polyolefin-clay nanocomposites are finding many new applications because of their improved properties, such as high modulus, elevated scratch resistance and low gas permeability. Currently, these composites are produced by melt blending organically modified clay with polyolefins. The most challenging step in this process is the intercalation and exfoliation of the clay to produce a homogenously dispersed phase at the nanoscale. A promising alternative to melt blending is in-situ polymerization, where the polymer is produced between the clay layers in the polymerization reactor. In-situ polymerization of olefins with metallocene catalysts supported on clay can produce nanocomposites using conventional polymerization reactors, provided that the clay can be used as a support for the olefin polymerization catalyst. In this approach, the clay fulfills the functions of catalyst support and dispersed phase in the final nanocomposite. In this work, a mathematical model describing particle growth during in-situ polymerization of ethylene with a metallocene catalyst supported on clay will be discussed. The model expands the approach of the multi-grain model used in heterogeneous olefin polymerization to account for the layered structure of clays.
