본 발명은 일반적인 메탈로센 촉매 중합에서와 마찬가지로 좁은 분자량 분포의 폴리에틸렌 왁스를 제조하며, 생성되는 폴리에틸렌 왁스의 분자량 분포는 중량평균분자량(weight-average molecular weight)을 수평균분자량(number-average molecular weight)로 나눈 값 즉, 분산도(disperisity)로 1 ∼ 3의 값을 갖음을 특징으로 하는데, 이 역시 메탈로센 촉매에 형성되는 중합 활성점의 균일성에 기인하는 것이다. 일반적인 메탈로센 촉매 중합의 경우, 메탈로센 촉매중합의 또다른 특징으로서 중합체내에 불포화 말단기를 포함하게 되는데, 본 발명에서 얻어지는 폴리에틸렌 왁스는 중합체내의 불포화 말단기 생성이 억제되는 중합 메카니즘상의 특이성을 갖는다.The present invention produces polyethylene wax with a narrow molecular weight distribution as in general metallocene catalyzed polymerization, the molecular weight distribution of the resulting polyethylene wax is a weight-average molecular weight number-average molecular weight (number-average molecular weight) It is characterized by having a value of 1 to 3 divided by), that is, a dispersion (disperisity), which is also due to the uniformity of the polymerization active point formed on the metallocene catalyst. In general metallocene catalyzed polymerization, another characteristic of metallocene catalyzed polymerization includes unsaturated end groups in the polymer. The polyethylene wax obtained in the present invention has a specificity on the polymerization mechanism in which the generation of unsaturated end groups in the polymer is suppressed. Have
메탈로센 촉매에 의한 α-올레핀의 중합에서는 일반적인 중합조건하에서 대부분 β-수소이탈반응을 통하여 중합체 말단에 비닐, 비닐리덴, 비닐렌기를 통칭하는 불포화 결합기를 포함하게 된다[J. Polym. Sci., Polym. Chem., 28, 15(1990);Macromol. Rapid Commun., 18, 715(1997);Macromol. Chem. Phys., 197, 4237(1996);Polymer, 37, 5011(1996);Macromlecules, 27, 2120(1994);J. Am. Chem. Soc., 114, 1025(1992)]. 이와 같이 중합체내에 포함되는 불포화 결합기는 포화된 탄화수소기에 비하여 화학적·열적으로 불안정하여 중합체의 화학적·열적 안정성을 해치게 되는데, 많은 경우 산소 존재하의 라디칼 공격에 의한 열산화 열화반응(thermal oxidative degradation)에 의한 착색, 산화, 가교 및 절단 반응들이 문제가 된다.In the polymerization of α-olefin by a metallocene catalyst, under the general polymerization conditions, most of the polymers include unsaturated bond groups collectively known as vinyl, vinylidene, and vinylene groups at the end of the polymer through β-hydrogenation reaction [ J. Polym. Sci., Polym. Chem. , 28, 15 (1990); Macromol. Rapid Commun. , 18, 715 (1997); Macromol. Chem. Phys. , 197, 4237 (1996); Polymer , 37, 5011 (1996); Macromlecules , 27, 2120 (1994); J. Am. Chem. Soc. , 114, 1025 (1992). As such, the unsaturated bond groups included in the polymer are chemically and thermally unstable compared to the saturated hydrocarbon group, thereby impairing the chemical and thermal stability of the polymer. Coloring, oxidation, crosslinking and cleavage reactions are problematic.
현재 공업적인 폴리올레핀 왁스 제조방법으로서, 가장 광범위하게 채택되고 있는 폴리올레핀 수지의 열분해에 의한 제조방법[Int. Polym. Sci. Technol., 23, 104(1996) ; 일본국 공개특허 평4-351608호] 역시 열분해 메카니즘상 생성되는 왁스 중합체의 내부 또는 말단에 비닐, 비닐리덴, 비닐렌과 같은 불포화 결합기를 포함하게 된다[Die Angew. Makro. Chem., 247, 31(1997);Macromolecules, 28,7973(1995)].Production method by thermal decomposition of polyolefin resin which is the most widely adopted method of producing polyolefin wax at present [ Int. Polym. Sci. Technol ., 23, 104 (1996); Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 4-351608 also includes unsaturated bond groups such as vinyl, vinylidene, and vinylene at the end or inside of the wax polymer generated on the pyrolysis mechanism [ Die Angew. Makro. Chem. , 247, 31 (1997); Macromolecules , 28,7973 (1995).
이 외에도 열분해 방법에 의한 폴리에틸렌 왁스의 제조에 있어서는 고점도체의 고중합체를 고온에서 조작하여 생산하는 방식이므로 다음과 같은 문제점이 수반하게 된다: 첫째, 반응기 내의 유동성이 불량하여 온도 분포가 균일하지 못하며 이에 따라 발열체에 밀착한 부분은 온도 과열에 의한 탄화 및 지나친 열분해가 진행되기 쉬우며 반대로 발열체로부터 먼부분은 충분한 열분해가 진행되지 못하게 되어 전반적으로 얻어지는 열분해 생성물이 불균일하며, 반응의 제어가 어려워 동일한 품질의 제품을 얻기가 어렵다. 둘째, 열분해 생성물 내에 다량의 오일상 저중합체 생성물이 포함되거나, 탄화된 알맹이가 포함되거나, 황색의 착색이 일어나기 쉬운 문제점이 있고, 일반적으로 중합 분산도가 넓어 균일한 품질을 기대하는 응용분야에는 사용할 수 없는 문제점을 가지고 있다.In addition, in the production of polyethylene wax by the pyrolysis method, a high viscosity high polymer is produced by operating at a high temperature, and thus, the following problems are involved: First, the fluidity in the reactor is poor, so that the temperature distribution is not uniform. Therefore, the part in close contact with the heating element tends to be prone to carbonization and excessive pyrolysis due to temperature overheating. On the contrary, the part far from the heating element does not undergo sufficient thermal decomposition, resulting in non-uniform pyrolysis products. Hard to get product Secondly, pyrolysis products contain a large amount of oily oligomer product, carbonized kernels, or yellowing, and are generally susceptible to yellowing. I have a problem that I can't.
상기한 바와 같은 문제점을 피할 수 있는 가장 유력한 폴리에틸렌 왁스의 제조방법은 에틸렌을 저중합하는 합성법으로 제조하는 방법이며, 폴리에틸렌의 분자량을 낮은 값으로 통제하기 위해서는 수소를 중합의 연쇄이동제로 사용하게 된다. 이 방법에서 분자량의 통제는 반응기내에 투입되는 수소의 양에 의존하며 수소의 연쇄이동반응에 의한 분자량 저하 효과는 전통적인 불균일계 지글러-나타 촉매에서 보다 메탈로센 촉매에 의한 에틸렌 중합에서 효과적으로 나타난다[J. Polym. Sci., Polym. Chem., 28, 15(1990);Prog. Polym. Sci., 20, 309(1995)]. 또한 이 방법은 수소의 연쇄이동 반응에 의한 중합체 성장의 중단에 기초한 것이므로 중합체 말단에 불포화 결합기가 형성되는 것을 피할 수 있어 효과적인 폴리에틸렌 왁스의제조 방법으로 인식되게 되었다[대한민국특허 제137,960호; 미국특허 제4,914,253호; 미국특허 제5,023,388호]. 그러나 이 방법은 폭발성 가스인 수소를 사용해야 하는 위험요소가 내포되어 있으며, 수소의 투입과 제거에 필요한 장치적· 공정적 복잡함이 부가될 뿐 아니라, W. Kaminsky 등의 연구에 의하면 수소의 사용은 메탈로센 촉매의 중합 활성도를 낮추는 문제점을 갖게 된다[Makromol. Chem., Rapid Commun., 5, 225(1984)].The most potent method for producing polyethylene wax that can avoid the above problems is a method of producing ethylene by low polymerization method, and hydrogen is used as a chain transfer agent for polymerization in order to control the molecular weight of polyethylene to a low value. Control of the molecular weight in this way is dependent on the amount of hydrogen and the molecular weight decreases the effect of the chain transfer reaction of hydrogen traditional heterogeneous Ziegler are placed in a reactor when effective in the ethylene polymerization by the metallocene catalyst than in the Ziegler-Natta catalyst [J Polym. Sci., Polym. Chem. , 28, 15 (1990); Prog. Polym. Sci. , 20, 309 (1995). In addition, this method is based on the interruption of polymer growth due to the chain transfer reaction of hydrogen, thereby avoiding the formation of unsaturated bond groups at the end of the polymer, which has been recognized as an effective method for producing polyethylene wax [Korea Patent No. 137,960; US Patent No. 4,914,253; US Patent No. 5,023,388]. However, this method implies the danger of using explosive gas, hydrogen, and not only does it add to the mechanical and process complexity required for the introduction and removal of hydrogen, but W. Kaminsky et al. There is a problem of lowering the polymerization activity of the Rosene catalyst [ Makromol. Chem., Rapid Commun ., 5, 225 (1984)].
본 발명은 분자량 분포가 낮아 중합체의 특성이 균일하며 착색과 냄새 및 탄화 알맹이를 포함시키지 않는 고품질의 폴리에틸렌 왁스를 수소를 사용하지 않는 메탈로센 촉매 중합법으로 제조하는 방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a method for producing high-quality polyethylene wax with a low molecular weight distribution, uniform polymer properties, and without coloring, odor, and carbonization by metallocene catalytic polymerization without hydrogen.

트리메틸알루미늄은 메탈로센 촉매의 조촉매인 알루미녹센의 제조원료로서 많은 경우 알루미녹센 내에 2 내지 40 몰%가 미반응물로 잔류되어 포함되는데 잔류농도는 알루미녹센의 제조방식에 의하여 변화될 수 있다. 많은 경우에 이러한 알루미녹센에 포함된 잔류 트리메틸알루미늄은 알루미녹센이 중합의 조촉매로 사용되기 전에 감압증류 등의 방법으로 제거되지만, 트리메틸알루미늄에 의한 반응기 내의 불순물 제거 효과 등으로 알루미녹센에 포함된 상태로 중합 반응기내에 그대로 투여되기도 한다. 이러한 트리메틸알루미늄 및 알루미녹센에 의한 에틸렌 중합체의 연쇄이동 반응은 많은 연구자에 의하여 인식되어 보고되어 있으나, 이 연쇄이동 반응은 메탈로센 촉매 중합에 있어 대부분 β-수소이탈반응에 비하여 미미하게 진행되는 것으로 보고되어 있어, 메탈로센 촉매 중합에 있어 폴리에틸렌의 분자량을 통제하는 주요 연쇄이동 반응은 β-수소이탈반응인 것으로 알려져 왔다[J. Am. Chem. Soc., 114, 1025(1992);Macromol. Rapid Commun, 18, 715(1997);J. Polym. Sci., Polym. Chem., 26, 3089(1988);J. Polym. Sci., Polym. Chem., 28, 15(1990)].Trimethylaluminum is a raw material for the production of aluminoxane, a co-catalyst of a metallocene catalyst, and in many cases, 2 to 40 mole% of unreacted material is contained in the aluminoxane. The residual concentration may be changed by the method of manufacturing the aluminoxane. In many cases, the residual trimethylaluminum contained in such aluminoxane is removed by distillation under reduced pressure before aluminoxane is used as a cocatalyst of polymerization, but is contained in aluminoxen due to the effect of removing impurities in the reactor by trimethylaluminum. It may also be administered as it is in the polymerization reactor. The chain transfer reaction of the ethylene polymer by trimethylaluminum and aluminoxane has been recognized and reported by many researchers, but this chain transfer reaction is inferior to the β-hydrogen dehydrogenation reaction in the metallocene catalytic polymerization. As reported, the main chain transfer reaction controlling the molecular weight of polyethylene in metallocene catalyzed polymerization has been known to be β-hydrogenation reaction [ J. Am. Chem. Soc. 114, 1025 (1992); Macromol. Rapid Commun , 18, 715 (1997); J. Polym. Sci., Polym. Chem. , 26, 3089 (1988); J. Polym. Sci., Polym. Chem. , 28, 15 (1990).
이러한 알루미늄에 의한 연쇄이동 반응은 1,5-헥사디엔의 고리화 중합반응에서 중요하게 진행된다는 것이 매우 드문 예로서 보고되어 있을 뿐, 트리메틸알루미늄과 같은 트리알킬알루미늄을 연쇄이동제로 사용하는 폴리에틸렌 왁스의 제조에 관한 연구보고나 특허출원은 전무한 상황이다.It has been reported very rarely that such chain transfer reaction by aluminum is important in the cyclization polymerization of 1,5-hexadiene, and the polyethylene wax using trialkylaluminum such as trimethylaluminum as a chain transfer agent There are no research reports or patent applications on manufacturing.
본 발명은 치환된 시클로펜타디에닐 배위자를 갖는 특정구조의 메탈로센 촉매를 사용하여 에틸렌을 중합할 때 40 ∼ 180℃의 낮은 중합온도에서도 알킬알루미늄을 연쇄이동제로 사용하여 폴리에틸렌 중합체의 분자량을 효과적으로 제어할수 있다는 사실로부터 고안된 것으로, 수소를 사용하지 않는 메탈로센 촉매에 의한 폴리에틸렌 왁스의 제조방법이며, 중합 메카니즘상의 통상적인 반응 후처리과정(work-up)을 거쳐 포화된 구조의 폴리에틸렌 왁스를 얻을 수 있게 된다.In the present invention, when the ethylene is polymerized using a specific structure of a metallocene catalyst having a substituted cyclopentadienyl ligand, an alkylaluminum is used as a chain transfer agent even at a low polymerization temperature of 40 to 180 ° C. to effectively use the molecular weight of the polyethylene polymer. Designed from the fact that it can be controlled, it is a method for producing polyethylene wax using a metallocene catalyst which does not use hydrogen, and a polyethylene wax having a saturated structure is obtained through a conventional reaction work-up on a polymerization mechanism. It becomes possible.

이와 같은 본 발명을 더욱 상세히 설명하면 다음과 같다.Referring to the present invention in more detail as follows.
본 발명은 메탈로센 촉매를 사용하는 에틸렌 중합법을 사용하여 분자량을 통제하는 연쇄이동제로 알킬알루미늄을 사용하여 포화된 분자구조와 좁은 분자량 분포를 갖는 폴리에틸렌 왁스를 제조하는 방법에 그 특징이 있다.The present invention is characterized by a method for producing polyethylene wax having a saturated molecular structure and a narrow molecular weight distribution using alkylaluminum as a chain transfer agent controlling molecular weight using an ethylene polymerization method using a metallocene catalyst.
본 발명은 알루미늄에 의한 연쇄이동 효과를 활성화하여 낮은 분자량의 폴리에틸렌 왁스를 용이하게 합성하기 위하여 고안된 것으로서 특정 형태의 시클로펜타디에닐 골격의 배위자를 갖는 메탈로센 촉매와 알루미녹센 또는 유기보레이트의 조촉매 그리고 연쇄이동제로 트리메틸알루미늄 또는 트리에틸알루미늄을 사용하여 50∼180℃의 중합온도에서 중합하여 제조함을 그 구성요건으로 한다.The present invention is designed to facilitate the synthesis of low molecular weight polyethylene wax by activating the chain transfer effect by aluminum, and is a co-catalyst of a metaloxene catalyst having a ligand of a specific form of cyclopentadienyl skeleton and aluminoxene or organic borate. In addition, using the trimethylaluminum or triethylaluminum as a chain transfer agent, the polymerization is carried out at a polymerization temperature of 50 to 180 DEG C to make the composition requirement.
트리메틸알루미늄 또는 트리에틸알루미늄 등의 연쇄이동제에 의한 알루미늄 연쇄이동 효과는 β-어고스틱 상호작용(β-agostic interaction)의 입체 장애적 억제로부터 유도될 수 있는데, 메탈로센 촉매의 중심금속이 취하는 β-수소와의 β-어고스틱 상호작용은 메탈로센 촉매의 에틸렌 중합에 있어 에틸렌 단량체 삽입반응과 β-수소이탈반응의 가장 중요한 반응 중간체로 인식되고 있다[Organometallics, 14, 746(1995)]. 이러한 β-어고스틱 상호작용은 입체화학적 견지에서 메탈로센 촉매의 중심금속과 결합한 성장 고분자 사슬의 β-탄소와 β-수소의 σ결합이 메탈로센 촉매의 두 시클로펜타디에닐 배위자가 이루고 있는 평면의 가운데 적도면(equtorial plane)에 놓여져야 하게 되는데, 이 때 β-탄소에 연결된 성장 고분자 사슬은 이 적도면에 수직하게 위치하게 됨으로써 시클로펜타디에닐 배위자와 입체장애적 상호작용(steric interaction)을 일으키게 되고 이 β-어고스틱 상호작용을 통하여 전자적 안정화를 취하려는 중심금속을 포함하는 메탈로센 화합물을 열역학적으로 불안정하게 한다. 그러나 비스(시클로펜타디에닐)지르코늄 디클로라이드 촉매처럼 치환기가 없는 시클로펜타디에닐 골격구조를 배위자로 하는 메탈로센 촉매는 이러한 β-어고스틱 상호작용에서 상기한 입체 장애적 상호작용이 크지 않아 충분한 전자적 안정화를 취함으로써 트리메틸알루미늄과 같은 알킬알루미늄 화합물에 의한 연쇄이동 효과가 크게 나타나지 않는다.The effect of aluminum chain transfer by chain transfer agents such as trimethylaluminum or triethylaluminum may be derived from steric hindrance inhibition of β-agostic interaction, Β-agotic interaction with hydrogen has been recognized as the most important reaction intermediate of ethylene monomer insertion and β-hydrogen reaction in ethylene polymerization of metallocene catalysts [Organometallics, 14, 746 (1995)]. In the stereochemical view, the β-agotic interaction is characterized by the formation of two cyclopentadienyl ligands of the metallocene catalyst by the σ bond of the β-carbon and β-hydrogen of the growth polymer chain bonded to the central metal of the metallocene catalyst. It must be placed in the middle equator plane of the plane, where the growth polymer chains linked to β-carbons are placed perpendicular to this equator plane, causing steric interaction with the cyclopentadienyl ligand. And through this β-agotic interaction, the metallocene compound containing the central metal to take electronic stabilization is thermodynamically unstable. However, metallocene catalysts having a substituent-free cyclopentadienyl skeleton, such as bis (cyclopentadienyl) zirconium dichloride catalysts, are not sufficient in such β-agotic interactions to provide sufficient By taking electronic stabilization, the effect of chain transfer by alkylaluminum compounds such as trimethylaluminum is not large.
그러므로 본 발명에서는 이러한 시클로펜타디에닐 골격구조의 배위자에 의한 입체 장애적 상호작용을 크게 하기 위하여 보다 많은 치환기를 갖는 시클로펜타디에닐 골격구조를 배위자로 갖는 메탈로센 촉매가 유효하며, 최소한 1개 이상의 치환기를 포함하는 치환된 시클로펜타디에닐 배위자를 갖는 메탈로센 촉매를 사용한다.Therefore, in the present invention, a metallocene catalyst having a cyclopentadienyl skeleton structure having more substituents as a ligand is effective to increase steric hindrance interaction by the ligand of the cyclopentadienyl skeleton structure, and at least one A metallocene catalyst having a substituted cyclopentadienyl ligand containing the above substituents is used.

Metallocene compound. It is also possible to use compounds substituted with methyl chloride, dimethyl, dimethylamine and the like instead of dichloride in each compound.

Wherein R 1 , R 2 , R 3 and R 4 are the same as or different from each other and are an alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, and n is an integer of 1 to 25.

본 발명의 촉매계에 포함되는 조촉매는 상기한 알루미녹센 화합물 및 유기보레이트 화합물 이외에도 공지된 올레핀 중합용 메탈로센 촉매의 조촉매 중에서 선택된 어느 하나 또는 둘 이상을 함께 사용할 수도 있다.As the cocatalyst included in the catalyst system of the present invention, in addition to the aluminoxane compound and the organic borate compound, any one or two or more selected from the cocatalysts of the known metallocene catalyst for olefin polymerization may be used.
연쇄이동제로 사용하는 알킬알루미늄은 메탈로센 촉매 1 몰당 100 몰 내지 100,000 몰 범위에서 사용될 수 있으며, 상기 범위 미만의 적은 양이 사용되는 경우에는 폴리에틸렌 왁스 제조를 위한 충분한 중합도 제어효과를 볼 수 없는 문제가 있으며, 반대로 상기에서 기술한 범위를 초과하는 과량의 양을 사용하는 경우에는 중합활성도가 지나치게 낮아지는 문제가 유발될 수 있다.Alkyl aluminum used as a chain transfer agent may be used in the range of 100 mol to 100,000 mol per mol of the metallocene catalyst, and when a small amount less than the above range is used, sufficient polymerization degree control effect for producing polyethylene wax may not be obtained. On the contrary, if an excessive amount exceeding the above-described range is used, a problem of excessively low polymerization activity may be caused.
상기와 같은 촉매계는 실리카와 같은 담체화합물에 담지시켜서 사용할 수 있다.Such a catalyst system can be used by being supported on a carrier compound such as silica.
이상에서 설명한 바와 같은 촉매계를 사용하여 폴리에틸렌계 공중합체 왁스를 제조하고자 한다면, 에틸렌과 α-올레핀을 공단량체로 사용하여 함께 반응기에 투입시켜 중합하여 얻을 수 있다. 상기한 α-올레핀의 구체적 예로는 프로필렌, 1-부텐, 1-펜텐, 1-헥센, 1-옥텐, 1-데센, 3-메틸-1-펜텐, 시클로펜텐, 노르보르넨, 5-비닐-2-노르보르넨, 1,4-헥사디엔, 4-메틸-1,4헥사디엔, 5-메틸-1,4-헥사디엔, 5-메틸-1,5-헵타디엔, 5-메틸-1,4-헵타디넨, 6-메틸-1,7-옥타디엔, 7-메틸-1,6-옥타디엔, 스티렌, 디비닐벤젠, 알릴벤젠 등이다.If the polyethylene copolymer wax is to be prepared using the catalyst system as described above, ethylene and α-olefin may be used as a comonomer to be introduced into the reactor and polymerized. Specific examples of the α-olefins mentioned above include propylene, 1-butene, 1-pentene, 1-hexene, 1-octene, 1-decene, 3-methyl-1-pentene, cyclopentene, norbornene, 5-vinyl- 2-norbornene, 1,4-hexadiene, 4-methyl-1,4hexadiene, 5-methyl-1,4-hexadiene, 5-methyl-1,5-heptadiene, 5-methyl-1 , 4-heptadinene, 6-methyl-1,7-octadiene, 7-methyl-1,6-octadiene, styrene, divinylbenzene, allylbenzene and the like.
중합온도는 분자량 제어에 큰 영향을 미친다. 중합온도가 낮을 수록 큰 활성화 에너지가 요구되는 연쇄이동반응보다는 낮은 활성화 에너지가 요구되는 단량체 삽입반응이 상대적으로 강화되는 효과를 갖게 되어 분자량이 증가하게 되므로, 낮은 중합도를 요하는 폴리에틸렌 왁스에는 적절하지 않게 된다. 그러므로 본 발명에서는 상온이상의 온도에서 중합이 이루어지는 것이 바람직하며, 더욱 바람직하게는 40℃∼180℃의 온도 범위이며, 더욱 더 바람직하게는 40∼150℃의 온도 범위이다. 중합반응온도가 이보다 낮으면 얻어지는 중합체의 분자량이 필요이상으로 증가할 수 있으며 그 이상으로 높을 경우에는 중합활성도가 지나치게 낮아지는 문제가 있을 수 있다.The polymerization temperature has a great influence on the molecular weight control. The lower the polymerization temperature, the more effective the monomer insertion reaction, which requires lower activation energy than the chain transfer reaction, which requires a larger activation energy, and thus the higher molecular weight. Therefore, it is not suitable for polyethylene wax requiring low polymerization degree. do. Therefore, in the present invention, the polymerization is preferably performed at a temperature above room temperature, more preferably in the temperature range of 40 ° C to 180 ° C, and even more preferably in the temperature range of 40 to 150 ° C. If the polymerization temperature is lower than this, the molecular weight of the resulting polymer may increase more than necessary, and if it is higher than this, there may be a problem that the polymerization activity is too low.
또한, 본 발명은 저온·저압 중합조건을 특징으로 하는 바, 중합 압력이 700 ∼ 2,000 기압에 이르는 고압 조건하에 중합이 이루어지는 고압 라디칼 중합에 비해서 휠씬 낮은 압력의 에틸렌 중합이 가능한, 메탈로센 촉매 중합의 특징인 상압 부근의 저압 중합 조건이 그대로 적용될 수 있다.In addition, the present invention is characterized by low-temperature and low-pressure polymerization conditions, metallocene catalytic polymerization capable of ethylene polymerization at a much lower pressure than the high-pressure radical polymerization that the polymerization is carried out under high pressure conditions of the polymerization pressure of 700 to 2,000 atm.

이상의 실시예에서는 지르코늄계 메탈로센 촉매에 대해서만 구체적으로 예시하고 있지만, 타이타늄계의 메탈로센 촉매를 사용하여도 동일한 효과를 얻을 수 있으며, 그 뿐만 아니라 공중합 단량체의 종류 및 농도, 용매의 변화, 촉매와 조촉매의 종류 및 농도, 촉매계의 담지화 방법 등을 활용하여서도 다양한 결과를 성취할 수 있다.In the above examples, the zirconium-based metallocene catalyst is specifically illustrated, but the same effect can be obtained by using a titanium-based metallocene catalyst, as well as the type and concentration of the copolymerized monomer, the change of the solvent, Various results can also be achieved by utilizing the type and concentration of catalyst and cocatalyst, and the method of supporting the catalyst system.
이상의 실시예 및 비교예로부터 알 수 있듯이, 본 발명은 특정구조의 메탈로센 촉매를 중합 촉매로 사용하고 중합의 연쇄이동제로 알킬알루미늄을 사용하여, 열산화 안정성 등을 크게 악화시키는 말단 불포화기의 생성을 최대한 억제시켜 포화된 말단기 구조의 폴리에틸렌 왁스를 온화한 중합 조건하에서도 효과적으로 제조하고 있다. 본 발명에 따른 제조방법에 의해 얻어진 폴리에틸렌 왁스의 분자량 분포는 메탈로센 촉매의 특징인 중합 분산도 3이하의 균일한 분자량 분포를 갖는다.As can be seen from the above examples and comparative examples, the present invention uses a metallocene catalyst having a specific structure as a polymerization catalyst and an alkylaluminum as a chain transfer agent of the polymerization, and thus, a terminal unsaturated group which greatly deteriorates thermal oxidation stability and the like. By suppressing the production as much as possible, polyethylene wax having a saturated end group structure is effectively produced even under mild polymerization conditions. The molecular weight distribution of the polyethylene wax obtained by the production method according to the present invention has a uniform molecular weight distribution of 3 or less in terms of polymerization dispersion degree which is characteristic of the metallocene catalyst.
