2. Description of the Related Art As a catalyst for homopolymerizing or copolymerizing olefins such as ethylene and propylene, a catalyst in which a titanium compound is supported on a magnesium compound is widely used. Further, in the field of such olefin polymerization catalysts, there is known a technique of using a magnesium compound such as magnesium chloride or magnesium alkoxide as a carrier raw material without crushing in order to improve the catalytic activity and the powder form of the olefin polymer. Has been.

As such a technique, for example, in order to improve the morphology such as particle size and shape of an olefin polymer, JP-A-63-280707 and the like disclose magnesium on an inorganic oxide such as silica. Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 58-000811 discloses a method of supporting a compound, and a method of using a magnesium compound once dissolved in a solvent such as alcohol and then precipitated again. However, these methods are extremely complicated in terms of steps because treatments such as loading, dissolution and precipitation of the magnesium compound are essential. In addition, these methods have a drawback that the catalyst performance is not stable, such that only the catalytic activity at the initial stage of polymerization is high.

As a technique for overcoming such drawbacks, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 4-130107 discloses a method of using a magnesium compound obtained by reacting metal magnesium, alcohol and a specific amount of halogen as a catalyst carrier. Is disclosed. However, in this method, depending on the properties of the magnesium metal particles, the particle size distribution of the obtained carrier or polymer powder was not always sufficient.

[0012]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Next, each catalyst component used in the present invention will be described. The following are preferred examples, and the present invention is not limited to these. 1. Catalyst Component [A] Solid Catalyst Component for Olefin Polymerization (a) Magnesium Compound In the present invention, the magnesium compound (a) is represented by the following formula (I) from the viewpoint of morphology of polymer powder, morphology improvement and polymerization activity. Particle size distribution index (P) is 4.
A compound obtained by reacting a halogen and / or a halogen-containing compound having a halogen atom of 0.0001 gram atom or more with respect to 1 gram atom of metal magnesium, alcohol, and metal magnesium of less than 0, preferably less than 3.0. To use. P = (D ₉₀ / D ₁₀ ) ... (I) [wherein, D ₉₀ represents the particle diameter of magnesium metal corresponding to a cumulative weight fraction of 90%, and D ₁₀ represents the cumulative weight fraction. The particle size of metallic magnesium corresponding to a ratio of 10% is shown. ] It is not preferable to use metallic magnesium having a particle size distribution index (P) of 4.0 or more because a solid catalyst component having high catalytic activity cannot be obtained from a magnesium compound obtained by reacting the metallic magnesium. Such metallic magnesium having a particle size distribution index (P) of less than 4.0 can be produced by classifying particles obtained by cutting, mechanical pulverization or melting / spraying with a sieve or the like.

The shape of metallic magnesium is not particularly limited as long as it satisfies the requirement of the above-mentioned particle size distribution index (P). Therefore, metallic magnesium having an arbitrary particle diameter, for example, granular, ribbon-shaped, powdered metallic magnesium or the like can be used. Incidentally, the average particle diameter D with respect to the cumulative weight fraction of magnesium metal is 50%
₅₀ is preferably 10 to 10000 μm, and the average particle diameter D ₅₀ is particularly preferably ₅₀ to 2000 μm. If the average particle size is small, the reaction is difficult to control, and if the particle size is too large, the reaction time becomes long and the productivity may decrease. Further, if it is out of this range, the resulting magnesium compound may have a deteriorated shape such as a particle size distribution or sphericity.

As the alcohol, it is preferable to use a lower alcohol having 1 to 6 carbon atoms. In particular, the use of ethanol is preferable because a solid product that significantly improves the expression of catalytic performance can be obtained. The purity and water content of the alcohol are not particularly limited, but when an alcohol having a high water content is used, a film of magnesium hydroxide is formed on the surface of the magnesium metal, so that the water content is 1% or less, particularly 2,000.
It is preferable to use 0 ppm or less of alcohol. Further, in order to obtain an olefin polymer having a better morphology, the smaller the water content, the more preferable, and generally 200 ppm or less is desirable.

As the halogen, chlorine, bromine or iodine, particularly iodine is preferably used. The halogen atom of the halogen-containing compound is preferably chlorine, bromine or iodine.
Further, among the halogen-containing compounds, halogen-containing metal compounds are particularly preferable. As the halogen-containing compound, specifically, MgCl ₂ , MgI ₂ , Mg (OEt) Cl,
Mg (OEt) I, MgBr ₂ , CaCl ₂ , NaCl,
KBr etc. can be used conveniently. Among these, especially M
gCl ₂ is preferred. These states, shapes, particle sizes, etc. are not particularly limited and may be arbitrary, and for example, they can be used as a solution in an alcohol solvent (for example, ethanol). It is speculated that iodine or MgCl ₂ is preferable, but it is considered that it is highly effective in improving the solubility of the magnesium compound in ethanol.

The alcohol is preferably used in an amount of 2 to 100 mol, particularly preferably 5 mol, per 1 mol of magnesium metal.
Use an amount that results in ~ 50 moles. If the amount of alcohol used is too large, the yield of the magnesium compound (a) with good morphology may decrease, and if it is too small,
Stirring in the reaction tank may not be performed smoothly. However, the molar ratio is not limited.

In the halogen or the halogen-containing compound, the halogen atom in the halogen or the halogen-containing compound is 0.0001 gram atom or more, preferably 0.0005 gram atom or more, and more preferably 0.001 gram atom per 1 gram atom of metallic magnesium. Use an amount of at least gram atoms. If it is less than 0.0001 gram atom, when the obtained magnesium compound (a) is used as a carrier for the solid catalyst component, the polymerization activity and the morphology of the olefin polymer become poor.

In the present invention, the halogen and the halogen-containing compound may be used alone or in combination of two or more kinds. Further, halogen and a halogen-containing compound may be used in combination. When the halogen and the halogen-containing compound are used in combination, the amount of all halogen atoms in the halogen and the halogen-containing compound is
An amount of 0.0001 gram atom or more, preferably 0.0005 gram atom or more, more preferably 0.001 gram atom or more is used with respect to 1 gram atom of metallic magnesium.

The upper limit of the amount of halogen and / or halogen-containing compound used is not particularly limited and may be appropriately selected within the range where the magnesium compound (a) of the present invention can be obtained. Generally, it is preferred to use an amount of less than 0.06 gram atom.

In the present invention, the particle size of the magnesium compound (a) can be freely controlled during the production of the magnesium compound (a) by appropriately selecting the amount of halogen and / or halogen-containing compound used within the above range. .

In the production of the magnesium compound (a), metal magnesium having the above-mentioned particle size distribution index (P), alcohol, and halogen and / or a halogen-containing compound are usually added until hydrogen gas is no longer observed ( The reaction is usually performed for 10 to 30 hours. Specifically, when iodine is used as the halogen, a method in which solid iodine is added to an alcohol solution of metallic magnesium and then heated to react, an alcohol solution of iodine is added to an alcohol solution of metallic magnesium. It can be produced by a method of dropping and then reacting by heating, a method of dropping and reacting an alcohol solution of iodine while heating an alcohol solution of metallic magnesium.

Any of the methods may be carried out in an atmosphere of an inert gas (eg, nitrogen gas or argon gas), optionally using an inert organic solvent (eg, saturated hydrocarbon such as n-hexane). preferable.

The reaction temperature of magnesium metal, alcohol, and halogen and / or halogen-containing compound is usually 30 to 90 ° C. Preferably 30-60
C, and the performance is improved in this temperature range. This is speculated, but it is considered that the reaction rate and the solubility are excellent in balance, and a uniform magnesium compound is produced.

Regarding the addition of magnesium metal, alcohol and halogen and / or halogen-containing compound, it is not necessary to add all of them from the beginning, and they may be added separately. For example, there is a method in which the entire amount of alcohol is charged from the beginning and metallic magnesium is charged in several times. In such a case, it is possible to prevent a temporary large amount of hydrogen gas from being generated, which is desirable from the viewpoint of safety. Also, the reaction tank can be downsized. Moreover,
It is also possible to prevent the entrainment of alcohol, halogen, etc., which is caused by the temporary large generation of hydrogen gas. The number of divisions may be determined in consideration of the scale of the reaction tank, and is not particularly limited, but considering the complexity of the operation, usually 5 to 10 times is preferable.

The reaction itself may be a batch type or a continuous type. Furthermore, as a modified method, a small amount of metallic magnesium is first added to the alcohol that has been entirely added from the beginning, the product produced by the reaction is separated and removed in another tank, and then a small amount of metallic magnesium is added again. It is also possible to repeat.

When the magnesium compound (a) thus obtained is used for preparing the solid catalyst component [A],
What was dried may be used, and what was washed with an inert solvent such as heptane after filtration may be used.

In any case, the magnesium compound (a) of the present invention can be used as a carrier for the solid catalyst component without performing operations such as pulverization or classification for equalizing the particle size distribution. The magnesium compound (a) of the present invention is nearly spherical, has a sharp particle size distribution, and has a small variation in sphericity from particle to particle.

The magnesium compound (a) has the following formula (I
The particle size distribution index (P ') represented by I) is usually 3.4.

(II) [wherein, D ₉₀ represents the particle diameter of the magnesium compound (a) corresponding to a cumulative weight fraction of 90%, and D ₁₀ represents Shows the particle diameter of the magnesium compound (a) corresponding to a cumulative weight fraction of 10%. When the magnesium compound (a) having such a particle size distribution index (P ′) is used, a polymer having a higher polymerization activity and an excellent particle shape can be obtained. The particle size distribution index (P ') indicates the degree of spread of the particle size distribution of the magnesium compound (a). The smaller this value is, the narrower the particle size distribution is and the more uniform the particle size is. It means that a large amount of the magnesium compound (a) is contained.

The magnesium compound (a) has a sphericity (S ') represented by the following formula (III) of usually 2.0.
It is less than 0, preferably less than 1.50. S ′ = (L ₁ / L ₂ ) ³ (III) [wherein, L ₁ is the longest diameter of the projected view of the magnesium compound obtained by image processing with a scanning electron microscope and image processing. Where L ₂ represents the diameter of a circle equal to the projected area of the magnesium compound. The magnesium compound (a) having such a sphericity (S ′) is preferable from the viewpoint of catalytic activity and morphology of polymer particles. The sphericity (S ') indicates the degree of sphere of the object, and indicates that the object with S' = 1 is a true sphere. Therefore, the closer S ′ is to 1, the closer each particle of the magnesium compound (a) is to a true sphere. Such a magnesium compound (a) having a particle size distribution index (P ′) of less than 3.4 and a sphericity (S ′) of less than 2.00 is a metallic magnesium having the above particle size distribution index (P).

The molecular weight of the olefin polymer can be adjusted by adding a chain transfer agent, preferably hydrogen. Further, an inert gas such as nitrogen may be present. Regarding the catalyst component in the present invention, the solid catalyst component [A], the organoaluminum compound [B] and the electron donating compound [C] are mixed at a predetermined ratio and contacted, and then the olefin is immediately introduced. Polymerization may be performed, or after contacting, aging may be performed for about 0.2 to 3 hours, and then olefin may be introduced to perform polymerization. Furthermore, this catalyst component can be supplied by suspending it in an inert solvent, an olefin or the like. In the present invention, post-treatment after polymerization can be carried out by a conventional method. That is, in the gas phase polymerization method, after the polymerization, the polymer powder discharged from the polymerization vessel may be passed through a nitrogen stream or the like in order to remove olefins and the like contained therein. Depending on the case, it may be pelletized by an extruder, and in that case, a small amount of water, alcohol or the like may be added in order to completely deactivate the catalyst. Further, in the bulk polymerization method, after the polymerization, the monomer can be completely separated from the polymer discharged from the polymerization vessel, and then pelletized.
