Mechanism and kinetics of polymerization of propylene in a microwave plasma

Flowing microwave plasma of propylene and propylene with argon was studied by mass spectrometry. Plasma composition was investigated as a function of external parameters such as pressure, argon/propylene ratio, and microwave-induced power. It was found that the propylene broke down to C₂H₂ and CH₄, or reacted further with propylene. Two main products, leading to the determination of three main chain reactions for the polymerization of propylene by ion-molecule interactions, were observed, namely, C₂H₂ and CH₄. These were the propylene, acetylene, and ethylene chain reactions. It was also found that the propylene disappeared in a pseudo-first-order reaction. Consequently an overall rate constant for the polymerization was determined (50 sec^–1 at 1 torr pressure for propylene plasma). This constant is found to be linearly dependent upon the propylene percent concentration, and nonlinearly dependent upon plasma pressure.Partly presented at the 157th meeting of the Electrochemical Society, St. Louis, Missouri, May 11–16, 1980.     

Hydrogen effects in propylene polymerization reactions with titanium‐based Ziegler–Natta catalysts. I. Chemical mechanism of catalyst activation

The hydrogen activation effect in propylene polymerization reactions with Ti‐based Ziegler–Natta catalysts is usually explained by hydrogenolysis of dormant active centers formed after secondary insertion of a propylene molecule into the growing polymer chain. This article proposes a different mechanism for the hydrogen activation effect due to hydrogenolysis of the Ti? iso‐C₃H₇ group. This group can be formed in two reactions: (1) after secondary propylene insertion into the Ti? H bond (which is generated after β‐hydrogen elimination in the growing polymer chain or after chain transfer with hydrogen), and (2) in the chain transfer with propylene if a propylene molecule is coordinated to the Ti atom in the secondary orientation. The Ti? CH(CH₃)₂ species is relatively stable, possibly because of the β‐agostic interaction between the H atom of one of its CH₃ groups and the Ti atom. The validity of this mechanism was demonstrated in a gas chromatography study of oligomers formed in ethylene/α‐olefin copolymerization reactions with δ‐TiCl₃/AlEt₃ and TiCl₄/dibutyl phthalate/MgCl₂–AlEt₃ catalysts. A quantitative analysis of gas chromatography data for ethylene/propylene co‐oligomers showed that the probability of secondary propylene insertion into the Ti? H bond was only 3–4 times lower than the probability of primary insertion. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 40: 1353–1365, 2002

Propylene polymerization with catalysts containing divalent titanium

The behavior in propylene polymerization of divalent titanium compounds of type [η⁶-areneTiAl₂Cl₈], both as such and supported on activated MgCl₂, has been studied and compared to that of the simple catalyst MgCl₂/TiCl₄. Triethylaluminium was used as cocatalyst. The Ti–arene complexes were active both in the presence and in the absence of hydrogen, in contrast to earlier reports that divalent titanium species are active for ethylene but not for propylene polymerization. ¹³C-NMR analysis of low molecular weight polymer fractions indicated that the hydrogen activation effect observed for the MgCl₂-supported catalysts should be ascribed to reactivation of 2,1-inserted (“dormant”) sites via chain transfer, rather than to (re)generation of active trivalent Ti via oxidative addition of hydrogen to divalent species. Decay in activity during polymerization was observed with both catalysts, indicating that for MgCl₂/TiCl₄ catalysts decay is not necessarily due to overreduction of Ti to the divalent state during polymerization. In ethylene polymerization both catalysts exhibited an acceleration rather than a decay profile. It is suggested that the observed decay in activity during propylene polymerization may be due to the formation of clustered species that are too hindered for propylene but that allow ethylene polymerization. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

SIMULATION OF EFFECTS OF REACTIVE IMPURITIES ON PROPYLENE POLYMERIZATION IN LOOP REACTORS THROUGH GENERATION FUNCTION TECHNIQUE

The estimation of the amount of reactive impurities in a loop reactor is of strategic importance to the propylene polymerization industry. It is essential to investigate the level of impurities in order to develop reliable monitoring and control strategies. This paper described one approach based on generation function technique with the following two steps. First, a new mechanism for propylene polymerization was proposed by considering the effects of the reactive impurities in the material on the propylene polymerization. Second, a series of equations of population balance for the propylene polymerization in loop reactors were established based on the proposed mechanism. Accordingly, the equations were transformed into the mathematic matrix through the generation function technique to investigate the effects of the reactive impurities on the propylene polymerization. Significant effects of the reactive impurities were analyzed through computational simulation. The results show that the concentration of active centre on catalysts and the polymerization conversion both decrease with the increase of the initial concentration of any reactive impurity; hydrogen concentration decreases with the increase of the initial concentration of ethylene or butylenes, whereas, it increases with the increase of the initial concentration of propadiene; the simulated weight average molecular weight and the molecular weight distribution index of polymer resins both increase with the increase of the initial concentration of ethylene or butylenes. They decrease with the increase of the initial concentration of propadiene.     

Quantum-chemical study of the effect of the association phenomenon on the active sites structure in butadiene polymerization reaction initiated by organolithium compounds

The electronic and geometric structures of monomeric and associated forms of crotyllithium (models for the active sites in the anionic polymerization of butadiene) have been calculated using a CNDO method. It appears that the cisoid configuration of the chain ends is energetically preferred for monomeric and dimeric forms of living macromolecules; in the case of tetramer, the transoid configuration is the more stable. The characteristics of C_α and C_γ atoms of substituted allylic groups undergo a certain bringing together when passing from monomer to dimer. The results are used for interpretation of the dependence of polybutadiene microstructure upon conditions during polymerization.     

Ultrahigh Branching of Main‐Chain‐Functionalized Polyethylenes by Inverted Insertion Selectivity

Branched polyolefin microstructures resulting from so‐called “chain walking” are a fascinating feature of late transition metal catalysts; however, to date it has not been demonstrated how desirable branched polyolefin microstructures can be generated thereby. We demonstrate how highly branched polyethylenes with methyl branches (220 Me/1000 C) exclusively and very high molecular weights (ca. 10⁶ g mol^?1), reaching the branch density and microstructure of commercial ethylene–propylene elastomers, can be generated from ethylene alone. At the same time, polar groups on the main chain can be generated by in‐chain incorporation of methyl acrylate. Key to this strategy is a novel rigid environment in an α‐diimine Pd^II catalyst with a steric constraint that allows for excessive chain walking and branching, but restricts branch formation to methyl branches, hinders chain transfer to afford a living polymerization, and inverts the regioselectivity of acrylate insertion to a 1,2‐mode.     

Ultrahigh Branching of Main-Chain-Functionalized Polyethylenes by Inverted Insertion Selectivity

Branched polyolefin microstructures resulting from so-called “chain walking” are a fascinating feature of late transition metal catalysts; however, to date it has not been demonstrated how desirable branched polyolefin microstructures can be generated thereby. We demonstrate how highly branched polyethylenes with methyl branches (220 Me/1000 C) exclusively and very high molecular weights (ca. 10⁶ g mol⁻¹), reaching the branch density and microstructure of commercial ethylene–propylene elastomers, can be generated from ethylene alone. At the same time, polar groups on the main chain can be generated by in-chain incorporation of methyl acrylate. Key to this strategy is a novel rigid environment in an α-diimine Pd^II catalyst with a steric constraint that allows for excessive chain walking and branching, but restricts branch formation to methyl branches, hinders chain transfer to afford a living polymerization, and inverts the regioselectivity of acrylate insertion to a 1,2-mode.     

Radiation-induced emulsion copolymerization of tetrafluoroethylene with propylene. IV. Effects of emulsifier concentration and dose rate

Radiation-induced emulsion copolymerization of tetrafluoroethylene with propylene was carried out by batch operation with an initial molar ratio of tetrafluoroethylene to propylene of 3.0 in the emulsifier concentration range of 0.1 to 3.0% and in the dose rate range of 2 × 10⁴ to 2 × 10⁵ R/hr. The effects of emulsifier concentration and dose rate on the polymerization rate and the number-average degree of polymerization are discussed in comparison with the Smith-Ewart theory. The polymerization rate is proportional to the 0.26 power of emulsifier concentration and to the 0.7 power of dose rate. The degree of polymerization is independent of the emulsifier concentration and the dose rate above the critical micelle concentration (CMC) of the emulsifier. These results are not in agreement with the Smith-Ewart theory. It is explained that the termination reaction is a degradative chain transfer of propagating radicals to propylene. On the other hand, the copolymerization in emulsion occurs either below the CMC or in the absence of emulsifier. Under these conditions, however, it is impossible to obtain a copolymer of high molecular weight at a high rate of polymerization because of the presence of a small number of polymer particles formed and the short interval of chain growth in the polymer particle.
