Description

Supported metallocene catalyst and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to a supported metallocene catalyst and a preparation method thereof, and relates to a method for preparing bimodal polyethylene by using a single reactor and a single metallocene catalyst system, and the obtained polyethylene.
Background
Polyolefin resin, as one of important synthetic materials, directly affects the development of national economy. At present, the polyolefin industry in China develops rapidly, but the yield and the performance can not meet the market demand, and particularly the demand of high-performance polyolefin materials increases rapidly, so that how to improve the performance of general high polymer materials such as polyethylene and the like is a hot spot of research of people. The bimodal polyethylene consists of high molecular weight polyethylene and low molecular weight polyethylene, the high molecular weight part can ensure the physical mechanical strength of the polymer, and the low molecular weight part can improve the processability of the polymer, so that compared with common polyethylene products, the bimodal molecular weight distribution polymer, particularly polyethylene, can give consideration to good mechanical properties and processability, and is widely applied in recent years.
To achieve these characteristics, there are three methods for industrially producing bimodal polyethylene currently, in which polymers having different molecular weights are produced through two reactors by a parallel reaction tank process and then blended in a molten state, but this method is expensive and it is difficult to control the uniformity of product quality.
The method has the advantages of flexible operation, convenient product switching and higher equipment investment cost. The currently used tandem production processes in industrial production mainly include Borstar process by Borealis corporation in finland, CX process by Mitsui corporation in japan, unipol ii process by UCC corporation in usa, and spherinene process by Basell corporation in england.
The method adopts a single reaction kettle process, uses a catalyst with multiple active points, or a single catalyst and multiple carriers, or a mixed catalyst, and common catalyst systems comprise a composite bimetallic catalyst system, a Ziegler-Natta/metallocene composite catalyst, a Ziegler-Natta/Ziegler-Natta composite catalyst, a double metallocene composite catalyst, a chromium-based/metallocene composite catalyst, a metallocene/late transition metal composite catalyst and the like. This process is considered a revolutionary advance due to the substantial reduction in equipment costs. At present, the method is realized in some chemical companies, for example, UCC of the United states adopts a gas phase method and a suitable mixed catalyst in a Unipol process unit to synthesize a bimodal polyethylene product. The university catalyst, developed by Univariation, can produce bimodal HDPE in a single reactor. Both british BP and Phillips companies have performed corresponding research and development work.
For example, WO99/03899 by Mobil corporation, this type of catalyst has been reported to have better copolymerization performance than Ziegler-Natta catalysts, and the molecular weight of the resulting polymer is relatively large, so that the high molecular weight portion of the resulting resin has low branching degree, even no branching, while the low molecular weight portion has high branching, and the material cannot achieve balance between processability and strength, and does not achieve ideal compounding effect.
In the prior art, chinese patent CN 109705242a discloses a supported metallocene catalyst, a preparation method and an application thereof, a single metallocene catalyst composite carrier, the supported catalyst has a double-activity center, and the composite carrier comprises a first carrier and a second carrier; the first carrier is an inorganic carrier modified by antimony chloride and alkyl aluminum, and the second carrier is carboxylated polystyrene, wherein the inorganic carrier is silicon dioxide or silica gel. Chinese patent CN 106589178A discloses a method for preparing a vanadium and metallocene bimetallic catalyst, which comprises the steps of obtaining vanadium oxide in an oxidation state by high-temperature roasting, reacting under a reduction condition to obtain pre-reduced vanadium oxide in a low oxidation state, then loading the pre-reduced vanadium oxide and a metallocene composition on an inorganic carrier to obtain a vanadium/metallocene composite catalyst, and applying the vanadium/metallocene composite catalyst to olefin preparation.
Both single metallocene catalyst composite supports and bimetallic catalysts require special design in the preparation of the catalyst, so that the prepared catalyst contains two active centers, one for producing low molecular weight polyethylene and the other for producing high molecular weight polyethylene. Therefore, the synergistic effect of a bimetallic catalyst or a dual-carrier system needs to be considered when a catalytic system is designed, so that the limitation of catalyst selection is increased, and the important significance is provided for developing a single-carrier supported single metallocene catalyst to prepare a bimodal polyethylene product.
