±éåäœã®è£œé ã«å¥œé©ãªææ³ã§ããã The above-mentioned type of polymerization method is known as one type in which a polymer is produced by polymerizing various polymerizable monomers. For example, taking the polymerization of olefins as an example, inert hydrocarbons and/or olefins to be polymerized are used as a medium that forms a liquid phase under reaction conditions, and the olefin polymers formed are dissolved in the liquid medium. A method of polymerizing olefins under such conditions is known. This method is particularly suitable for producing medium- and low-density grade ethylene copolymers for which slurry polymerization is difficult.

ã«ãããã When carrying out this type of solution polymerization,
In order to obtain a polymer with good homogeneity, it is generally preferable to carry out the polymerization under conditions in a non-two-phase separation region that exhibits a uniform liquid phase between the upper cloud point and the lower cloud point. It is common to carry out polymerization. However, when attempting to produce high molecular weight polymers by these types of solution polymerization techniques, the solution viscosity of the polymerization system increases, making it difficult to remove the polymerization heat, pump the product, and process the polymerization system. Stirring and mixing cannot be performed smoothly. For this reason, it is necessary to operate in a state where the polymer concentration is diluted, and as a result, there are problems with disadvantages such as a decrease in production capacity per unit volume of the polymerization vessel and an increase in polymer separation cost.

ã»ã¹ã§ãã€ãã The present inventors conducted research in order to develop an improvement method that avoids the above-mentioned disadvantages in solution polymerization. As a result, solution polymerizations of the type described above are carried out under conditions in the two-phase separation region above the upper cloud point, where polymerization uniformity would be expected to be lost, but with the exception that both phases are in a well-dispersed state of mixing. By carrying out the polymerization under sufficient stirring conditions, it is possible to create a dispersion-mixed state such as a droplet dispersion system with a higher concentration of polymer in a liquid phase with a lower concentration of polymer. This is presumed to be due to the formation of a reaction system, but it was discovered that an improvement could be achieved in which the above-mentioned troubles could be conveniently overcome without impairing the uniformity of polymerization, and
It has already been proposed in Publication No. 58-7402. This method is
To significantly increase the solution viscosity of the polymerization system by leading the produced polymerization liquid to a separation zone and separating the phases, collecting the polymer concentration liquid phase, and recycling and reusing the polymer diluted liquid phase to the polymerization tank. without pumping the product,
It was a rational process for producing polymers because the stirring and mixing of the polymerization system and the removal of polymerization heat could be carried out smoothly.

ããªããªãããšããªã©ã®å€ãã®å©ç¹ãããã As a result of studies aimed at further improving the above-mentioned polymerization process and developing a more rational process, the present inventors found that the polymerization system inside each polymerization tank was in the two-phase separation region above the upper cloud point. When polymerizing in a polymerization process consisting of multiple stages of polymerization tanks in which both phases are dispersed and mixed, the initial viscosity is By adopting a method in which the molecular weight is increased to a higher molecular weight and further polymerization is continued in a subsequent polymerization tank, the density and molecular weight distribution of the resulting polymer can be adjusted much more easily than the method proposed in the above-mentioned publication. The inventors have discovered that the object can be achieved and have arrived at the present invention. According to the present invention, polymerization can be carried out in a state where the apparent viscosity of the system is lower than in conventional homogeneous solution systems, and therefore, an increase in the amount of polymer produced per reaction volume can be achieved, and phase separation is also possible. The viscosity of the polymer dilute solution phase obtained is extremely low and has excellent cooling efficiency, so that the heat of polymerization reaction can be easily and efficiently removed;
The medium can be easily and efficiently circulated and reused in the polymerization tank, and in the case of olefin polymerization, less hydrogen is used in the first stage polymerization tank to produce a high molecular weight polymer. 1st and 2nd row
There are many advantages such as eliminating the need to install a hydrogen separation device between the stages of polymerization tanks.

ã»ã¹ãšãªããšããç¹åŸŽãæããŠããã Since it is impossible to avoid the above-mentioned drawbacks in the conventional homogeneous solution-based multi-stage polymerization method, a low molecular weight polymer is usually produced in the first stage polymerization tank, and the molecular weight is increased in the subsequent stage polymerization tank. However, this method requires a hydrogen separation device between the polymerization tanks in order to adjust the molecular weight distribution and density of the produced polymer, and it also requires separation of copolymer components in the recycled solvent. Therefore, large-scale distillation equipment was required. In contrast, the method of the present invention is characterized by eliminating the drawbacks of conventional multistage polymerization methods and providing an excellent multistage polymerization process by employing the method described below.

ããã In the method of the present invention, polymerization is carried out in a multi-stage polymerization tank that satisfies the conditions that the polymer formed forms two liquid phases and is dissolved and dispersed in a medium that forms a liquid phase under reaction conditions. At this time, the polymerization system inside each polymerization tank is in a two-phase separation region above the upper cloud point, and both phases are in a dispersed stirring mixed state. The resulting polymer solution produced in each polymerization tank is then led to a separation zone where it is separated into two liquid phases consisting of a polymer-rich liquid phase and a polymer-dilute liquid phase. The polymer is recycled and reused, and the polymer concentrated liquid phase is supplied to a subsequent polymerization tank to continue the polymerization reaction. In the method of the present invention, the polymerization liquid produced from the last stage polymerization tank is led to the separation zone in the same manner as described above, where it is separated into two liquid phases consisting of a polymer-concentrated liquid phase and a polymer-dilute liquid phase. The liquid phase is circulated to the polymerization tank and reused, and the polymer is separated and recovered from the polymer-concentrated liquid phase according to a conventional method.

ãã The polymerization temperature is selected in such a range that phase separation above the upper cloud point is observed. The upper cloud point is
Although it depends on the type and mutual ratio of liquid phase components in the polymerization system, experimentally, the transmitted light is measured,
It can be easily determined as the temperature at which the transmitted light intensity rapidly attenuates. At temperatures between the lower and upper cloud points, the polymer dissolves in a homogeneous liquid phase; however, at temperatures above the upper cloud point, a concentrated solution phase of the polymer and a dilute polymer phase occur. Phase separates into solution phase. In general, the higher the temperature, the higher the concentration of the polymer in the concentrated solution phase, and conversely, the lower the concentration of the polymer in the dilute solution phase. The two-phase separation region can vary depending on not only the temperature but also the type and proportion of monomers and polymers formed, the type of solvent, the pressure of the reaction system, and other conditions. Therefore, by using the above-mentioned transmitted light measurement method, the conditions of the two-phase separation region above the upper cloud point can be easily determined in advance experimentally.

ããäžã€ã³ã¹ããäœæžãããããšãã§ããã From the point of view of polymerization operations, the higher the polymer concentration in the concentrated solution phase and the higher the average molecular weight of the polymer, the more viscous it becomes, so the stirring power required to uniformly disperse the concentrated solution phase in the dilute solution phase also increases. However, it also tends to adhere to the stirring blades and polymerization walls.
Trouble can be prevented by modifying the shape of the stirring blade. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of separation operations, the larger the density difference between the two phases, the better the separation efficiency, which facilitates the operations required for post-processing operations and reduces costs.

ã®ã奜ãŸããã The actual polymerization temperature should be determined by taking into consideration various factors such as the advantages and disadvantages of such operations, changes in catalyst activity due to temperature, and equipment costs associated with increases and decreases in operating pressure, but in general, it is necessary to determine the actual polymerization temperature from the upper cloud point. Approximately more than that
During temperatures 200°C above the upper cloud point, especially about
Preferably, the temperature is selected between 10° C. higher and about 150° C. higher. Further, when using a titanium catalyst component highly activated by a magnesium compound as described above, it is preferable to carry out the polymerization at a temperature range of about 100 to about 300°C, particularly about 120 to about 250°C. The concentration of the olefin polymer varies depending on the molecular weight of the olefin polymer, but is adjusted to a range of about 10 to about 1000 g/, more preferably about 30 to about 200 g/in the combined state of both liquid phases. It is industrially advantageous to do so. The polymerization pressure is preferably in the range of, for example, atmospheric pressure to about 150 kg/cm 2 , particularly about 10 to about 70 kg/cm 2 .
Hydrogen optionally used during polymerization is, for example, about 0.0001 to about 20 mol per mol of olefin,
It is particularly preferable to use it in a range of about 0.001 to about 10 moles.

If the stirring is insufficient, a dilute phase clearly appears in the upper phase portion, which impairs the uniformity of polymerization, which is not preferable. Therefore, stirring conditions are adopted such that such a separated phase does not appear. By performing polymerization in a well-dispersed state in this way, the polymerization rate is lower than when performing homogeneous phase solution polymerization at the same polymer concentration.
It is possible to carry out polymerization in a state where the viscosity is actually low, and even when producing a high molecular weight polymer, the polymerization can be carried out under relatively high concentration conditions.

ãã Phase separation does not need to be performed completely; for example, both phases may be separated in a state in which a part of the dilute phase is mixed with the concentrated phase. Part or all of the polymer diluted liquid phase in the upper phase is recycled and reused in the polymerization reaction. At this time, if the material is cooled in advance before being introduced into the polymerization zone, the heat of polymerization can be effectively removed. In other words, compared to cooling the polymerization product liquid itself, the phase-separated polymer thinner phase has a lower viscosity, so the heat exchange effect in the cooler is higher, so it is less efficient in terms of thermal energy and industrial efficiency. This is extremely advantageous for practical implementation. Furthermore, since a highly concentrated polymer solution can be obtained by simply performing phase separation, operations required for polymer separation can be facilitated and separation costs can be reduced.
