Prioity claim
The application requires the USSN12/950 that submits on November 19th, 2010, and 501 and interests and the right of priority of the EP10196508.5 that submits on December 22nd, 2010.
Invention field
The present invention relates to field of olefin polymerisation, especially use mixed catalyst composition to make the method for olefinic polymerization and copolymerization.
Background of invention
Polyolefine with bimodal attitude molecular weight distribution is desirable, because they can be with the combination of the improved processing characteristics of the favourable mechanical property of high molecular weight block and low molecular weight fraction.This provides to compare with the polyolefine that high molecular weight block or low molecular weight fraction are only arranged has useful and polyolefine desirable performance combination.For example, although high molecular is given polyolefin polymer with desirable mechanical property and stable bubble formation usually, but it also suppresses to extrude processing by the counterpressure that improves in the forcing machine usually, promote the melt fracture defective in the expanding bubble, possibly, also promote orientation degree in the finished film.On the other hand, low-molecular-weight polyolefin has excellent workability usually, but intensity difference.Keep desirable mechanical property, stable bubble formation, therefore the multimodal attitude molecular weight distribution polyolefin that comprises low molecular weight fraction and high molecular weight block in the time of the forcing machine counterpressure that reduces and downtrod melt fracture is desirable.This type of polyolefine may have great applicability in the film that requires the useful and desirable performance combination of this kind and other goods.
Polyolefine with multimodal attitude molecular weight distribution can followingly obtain: with high molecular polyolefine and low-molecular-weight polyolefin physical blending, such as U.S. Patent number 4,461, like that open in 873.Yet the blend of these physics preparations contains high gel level usually, and this causes because the film outward appearance of the difference that those gels cause.Although workability has improvement, blend is expensive often, requires the completely homogeneity of mixture of melts, and increases the additional blend step that bothers for manufacturings/manufacture craft.
Some commercial runs use the technological operation of multiple reaction device with the machinable bimodal attitude molecular weight distribution polyethylene product of preparation in two or more reactors.In multiple reaction device method, each reactor prepares the single component of final product.For example, as described in EP0057420, by two step method, use two tandem reactors to carry out the preparation of bimodal attitude molecular weight distribution high density polyethylene(HDPE).In described two step method, can Optimizing Technical and catalyzer in order to provide high-level efficiency and productive rate for each step in the group method.Yet, use the multiple reactor technology to increase cost and processing consideration.
Yet, being difficult to for example use, single catalyst prepares for example bimodal attitude molecular weight distribution polyethylene of bimodal attitude molecular weight distribution polyolefin, because usually need two groups of independently reaction conditionss.As an alternative, other people has attempted using in same reactor two kinds of different catalysts to prepare simultaneously two kinds of polymkeric substance in this area.
The catalyst system that comprises two kinds of different metal cyclopentadienyl catalysts is disclosed in the preparation of the bimodal attitude molecular weight distribution polyolefin among the EP0619325.EP0619325 has described the polyolefine with multimodal or bimodal at least attitude molecular weight distribution, for example poly preparation method.Employed metallocenes is that for example, dichloro two (cyclopentadienyl) closes zirconium and dichloro ethylenebis (indenyl) is closed zirconium.By in same reactor, using two kinds of different metalloscene catalysts, obtain bimodal at least molecular weight distribution.
WO99/03899 discloses the application for preparing the poly catalyst composition with wide or bimodal molecular weight distribution in single reactor.Described catalyzer is by silicon oxide (in advance 600 ℃ lower calcining) and dibutylmagnesium, n-butyl alcohol and titanium tetrachloride, and the interaction preparation of closing the solution of zirconium of methylaluminoxane and dichloro ethylenebis [1-indenyl].
U.S. Patent number 7,163,906 disclose a kind of catalyst composition, this catalyst composition comprises the product of contact of at least a Metallocenic compound, at least a organic chromium polymerizing catalyst, fluorided silica and at least a alkylaluminium cpd, and then this catalyst composition is used for making vinyl polymerization in inert atmosphere.U.S. Patent number 7,163, the metallocenes that uses among 906 the embodiment are that dichloro two (n-butyl cyclopentadienyl) closes zirconium and employed organo-chromium compound comprises two cumene chromium and two luxuriant chromium.U.S. Patent number 7,163, disclosed metallocenes in 906-organic chromium catalyst system preparation is characterised in that the very polyethylene of wide molecular weight distribution (70.3-8.4).U.S. Patent number 7,163, the polyethylene of preparation shows medium molecular weight distributions in 906, has owing to the peak, center of metallocene components and the wide tail composition on high and that side of lower molecular weight owing to the chromium component time.In addition, U.S. Patent number 7,163,906 openly do not use molecular switch to activate a kind of catalyzer and the another kind of catalyzer of passivation.
Can provide aspect the method for polyolefinic various molecular weight fractions control with multimodal attitude molecular weight distribution in exploitation and to still have significant challenge.Therefore, still need to allow to the composition of each kurtosis of the multimodal attitude molecular weight distribution polymer concrete method of control in addition.
