Description

Catalyst composition, preparation method thereof and application thereof in reaction for synthesizing 1-butene through selective dimerization of ethylene
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of polymer synthesis, and particularly relates to a catalyst composition, a preparation method thereof and application thereof in reaction for synthesizing 1-butene through selective dimerization of ethylene.
Background
The catalytic systems reported so far for the selective dimerization of ethylene into 1-butene include catalytic systems based on vanadium, iron or cobalt, tungsten, tantalum, nickel, titanium. Of these systems, titanium-based catalytic systems are the best. Patent US 2943125 to ziegler et al discloses a process for the dimerization of ethylene to 1-butene using a catalyst obtained by mixing a trialkylaluminum with a zirconium tetraalkoxide. During this reaction, a certain amount of high molecular weight polymer (i.e., polyethylene) is also formed; this has a rather detrimental effect on the implementation of the method. Patent CN1031364A discloses a process for preparing butene-1, which comprises dimerization of ethylene in the presence of titanium tetraalkoxide-trialkylaluminum in a hydrocarbon solvent of a catalytic system, followed by distillation of the reactants resulting from the dimerization, in the presence of a compound selected from the group consisting of: mono-and diols, aliphatic and cyclic ethers, aliphatic ketones, carboxamides. The catalyst used in the method is expensive, and in the generated product, the selectivity of the butene-1 is low, only 70 percent, and a large amount of butene-2 is contained.
Therefore, there is a need to develop a catalyst composition with high activity and selectivity and low polyethylene content in the product, a preparation method thereof, and an application thereof in the reaction of ethylene selective dimerization to 1-butene.
