Oppfinnelsens bakgrunnThe background of the invention
Denne oppfinnelse angår en ny katalysatorkomposisjonThis invention relates to a new catalyst composition
som er egnet for initiering og akselerering av polymerisasjon av ett eller flere a-olefiner, og en polymerisasjonsprosess hvor en slik katalysatorkomposisjon anvendes. which is suitable for initiating and accelerating the polymerization of one or more α-olefins, and a polymerization process where such a catalyst composition is used.
Det er velkjent at olefiner såsom etylen, propylen ogIt is well known that olefins such as ethylene, propylene and
1-buten i nærvær av metallkatalysatorer, særlig reaksjons-produktene av organometalliske forbindelser og overgangsmetall-forbindelser kan polymeriseres for å danne tilnærmet lineære polymerer med forholdsvis høy molekylvekt. Typiske slike polymerisasjoner utføres ved forholdsvis høye temperaturer og trykk. 1-butene in the presence of metal catalysts, especially the reaction products of organometallic compounds and transition metal compounds can be polymerized to form approximately linear polymers with a relatively high molecular weight. Typical polymerizations of this type are carried out at relatively high temperatures and pressures.
Blant metodene for fremstilling av slike lineære olefin-polymerer, er noen av de mest anvendte de som er beskrevet av professor Karl Ziegler i US-patenter 3 113 115 og 3 257 332. Among the methods for preparing such linear olefin polymers, some of the most widely used are those described by Professor Karl Ziegler in US Patents 3,113,115 and 3,257,332.
Ved disse metoder oppnåes den anvendte katalysator ved åIn these methods, the catalyst used is obtained by
blande en forbindelse av et overgangsmetall fra gruppe 4b, 5b,mix a compound of a transition metal from group 4b, 5b,
6b og 8 i Mendeleev's periodiske system med en organometallisk forbindelse. Generelt er halogenidene, oksyhalogenidene og alkoksydene eller estrene av titan, vanadium og zirkonium de mest anvendte overgangsmetallforbindelser. Vanlige eksempler på de organometalliske forbindelser omfatter hydridene, alkyl- 6b and 8 in Mendeleev's periodic table with an organometallic compound. In general, the halides, oxyhalides and alkoxides or esters of titanium, vanadium and zirconium are the most widely used transition metal compounds. Common examples of the organometallic compounds include the hydrides, alkyl-
og halogenalkyl-derivatene av aluminium, alkylaluminium-halogenider, Grignard-reagenser, alkalimetall-aluminiumhydrider, alkalimetall-borhydrider, alkalimetall-hydrider, jordalkalimetall-hydrider og lignende. Vanligvis utføres polymerisasjonen i et reaksjonsmedium som omfatter en inert organisk væske, for eksempel et alifatisk hydrokarbon og den ovennevnte katalysator. Ett eller flere olefiner kan bringes i kontakt med reaksjonsmediet på enhver egnet måte, og en molekylvekt-regulator, så- and the haloalkyl derivatives of aluminum, alkyl aluminum halides, Grignard reagents, alkali metal aluminum hydrides, alkali metal boron hydrides, alkali metal hydrides, alkaline earth metal hydrides and the like. Usually, the polymerization is carried out in a reaction medium comprising an inert organic liquid, for example an aliphatic hydrocarbon, and the above-mentioned catalyst. One or more olefins may be brought into contact with the reaction medium in any suitable manner, and a molecular weight regulator, so-
som hydrogen, settes ofte til reaksjonskaret for å regulere polymerenes molekylvekt. Slike polymerisasjonsprosesser ut- such as hydrogen, is often added to the reaction vessel to regulate the molecular weight of the polymers. Such polymerization processes out-
føres enten ved slurry-polymerisasjonstemperaturer (dvs. hvorconducted either at slurry polymerization temperatures (i.e. where
den resulterende polymer ikke er oppløst i hydrokarbon-reaksjonsmediet). eller ved oppløsningspolymerisasjonstempera- the resulting polymer is not dissolved in the hydrocarbon reaction medium). or at solution polymerization tempera-
turer (dvs. hvor temperaturen er tilstrekkelig høy til å trips (i.e. where the temperature is sufficiently high to
solubilisere polymeren i reaksjonsmediet).solubilize the polymer in the reaction medium).
Etter polymerisasjonen er det vanlig å fjerne katalysator-rester fra polymeren ved gjentatt behandling av polymeren med alkohol eller et annet deaktiverende middel såsom en vandig, basisk oppløsning. Slike katalysator-deaktiverings og/eller -fjernelsesprosesser er kostbare både med hensyn til tid og forbrukt materiale såvel som med hensyn til utstyr som kreves for å utføre slik behandling. After polymerization, it is common to remove catalyst residues from the polymer by repeated treatment of the polymer with alcohol or another deactivating agent such as an aqueous, basic solution. Such catalyst deactivation and/or removal processes are expensive both in terms of time and material consumed as well as in terms of equipment required to carry out such treatment.
Dessuten ledsages de fleste slurry-polymerisasjonsprosesser hvor de ovennevnte kjente katalysatorsysterner anvendes, av problemer med avsetning i reaktoren. Som et resultat av slik reaktor-avsetning, er det nødvendig å stoppe prosessen ofte for å rengjøre polymerisasjonsreaktoren. Moreover, most slurry polymerization processes where the above-mentioned known catalyst systems are used are accompanied by problems with deposition in the reactor. As a result of such reactor deposition, it is necessary to stop the process frequently to clean the polymerization reactor.
På bakgrunn av de ovennevnte problemer man støter på ved anvendelse av vanlige Ziegler-katalysatorer, ville det være meget ønskelig å tilveiebringe en polymerisasjonskatalysator som er tilstrekkelig aktiv til å eliminere behovet for fjernelse av katalysator-rester og som gjør at problemer med reaktor-avsetning blir minimale. Ved slurry-polymerisasjonsprosesser ville det være særlig ønskelig å tilveiebringe en høyeffektiv katalysator som fører til et polyolefin-pulver med øket romvekt . On the basis of the above-mentioned problems encountered when using conventional Ziegler catalysts, it would be highly desirable to provide a polymerization catalyst which is sufficiently active to eliminate the need for removal of catalyst residues and which causes problems with reactor deposition to be minimal. In slurry polymerization processes, it would be particularly desirable to provide a highly efficient catalyst that leads to a polyolefin powder with an increased bulk density.

at det resulterende produkt ikke i vesentlig grad reduserer TiCl4 ved en temperatur på ca. 25°C. Halogenidkilden er til stede i en mengde som er tilstrekkelig til å omdanne tilnærmet alle de grupper som er bundet til et magnesiumatom i komponent (la) til en halogenid-gruppe. that the resulting product does not significantly reduce TiCl4 at a temperature of approx. 25°C. The halide source is present in an amount which is sufficient to convert almost all the groups which are bound to a magnesium atom in component (la) into a halide group.
Et annet trekk ved foreliggende oppfinnelse er det hydrokarbon-uoppløselige, faste reaksjonsprodukt av (A) det hydrokarbon-uoppløselige, faste reaksjonsprodukt av (1) reaksjonsproduktet av (a) en hydrokarbylmagnesium-forbindelse eller et hydrokarbyl- eller hydrokarbyloksy-aluminiumkompleks derav med (b) en oksygenholdig og/eller nitrogenholdig forbindelse, med (2) en halogenidkilde; (B) en overgangsmetall-forbindelse; og (C) et reduksjonsmiddel. Another feature of the present invention is the hydrocarbon-insoluble solid reaction product of (A) the hydrocarbon-insoluble solid reaction product of (1) the reaction product of (a) a hydrocarbyl magnesium compound or a hydrocarbyl or hydrocarbyloxy aluminum complex thereof with (b ) an oxygen-containing and/or nitrogen-containing compound, with (2) a halide source; (B) a transition metal compound; and (C) a reducing agent.

The amount of component (B) is that which is sufficient to provide a Mg:Tm atomic ratio of about 0.05:1 to approx. 50:1, preferably from approx. 0.1:1 to approx. 5:1, and most preferably from approx. 0.2:1 to approx. 1:1. Sufficient amounts of component (C) are used to theoretically reduce almost all of the transition metal.

Egnede overgangsmetall-forbindelser som kan anvendes, omfatter de som rep r resenteres ved formelen TmY n X z-n , hvor Tm er et overgangsmetall i sin høyeste stabile valenstrinn og er valgt fra gruppene IV-B, V-B og VI-B i det periodiske system; Suitable transition metal compounds that can be used include those represented by the formula TmY n X z-n , where Tm is a transition metal in its highest stable valence step and is selected from groups IV-B, V-B and VI-B of the periodic table;

Egnede organiske inerte fortynningsmidler i hvilke katalysator-bæreren og katalysatoren kan fremstilles og i hvilke a-olefin-polymerisasjonen kan utføres, omfatter for eksempel flytendegjort etan, propan, isobutan, n-butan, isopentan, n-pentan, n-heksan, de forskjellige isomere heksaner, isooktan, paraffiniske blandinger av alkaner med fra 8 til 12 karbonatomer, cykloheksan, metylcyklopentan, dimetylcykloheksan, dodekan, eicosan, industrielle opp-løsningsmidler sammensatt av mettede eller aromatiske hydrokarboner såsom kerosen, naftaer osv., særlig når det er be-fridd for eventuelle olefin-forbindelser og andre forurensninger, og særlig de som har kokepunkter i området fra ca. -50 til ca. 200°C. Også innbefattet som egnede inerte fortynningsmidler er benzen, toluen, etylbenzen, kumen, dekalin og lignende. Suitable organic inert diluents in which the catalyst support and catalyst can be prepared and in which the α-olefin polymerization can be carried out include, for example, liquefied ethane, propane, isobutane, n-butane, isopentane, n-pentane, n-hexane, the various isomeric hexanes, isooctane, paraffinic mixtures of alkanes with from 8 to 12 carbon atoms, cyclohexane, methylcyclopentane, dimethylcyclohexane, dodecane, eicosane, industrial solvents composed of saturated or aromatic hydrocarbons such as kerosene, naphthas, etc., especially when liberated for any olefin compounds and other contaminants, and especially those with boiling points in the range from approx. -50 to approx. 200°C. Also included as suitable inert diluents are benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, cumene, decalin and the like.
Katalysatoren og katalysator-bærerene ifølge oppfinnelsen fremstilles fordelaktig under en inert atmosfære såsom nitrogen, argon eller en annen inert gass, ved temperaturer i området fra ca. -50 til ca. 200°C, fortrinnsvis fra ca. 0 til ca. 100°C. Blandingstiden for de forskjellige komponenter er ikke kritisk, men tider fra ca. 1 minutt til ca. 36 timer ansees å være mest ønskelig. Tiden er vanligvis den som vil tillate fullstendig reaksjon ved reaksjonstemperaturen. Hurtig blanding av katalysator-komponentene eller dårlig omrøring fører til en katalysator som er forholdsvis uensartet med hensyn til partikkelstørrelsesfordeling og fører til polymerer med en uønsket bred partikkelstørrelsesfordeling. The catalyst and catalyst carriers according to the invention are advantageously produced under an inert atmosphere such as nitrogen, argon or another inert gas, at temperatures in the range from approx. -50 to approx. 200°C, preferably from approx. 0 to approx. 100°C. The mixing time for the different components is not critical, but times from approx. 1 minute to approx. 36 hours is considered to be most desirable. The time is usually that which will allow complete reaction at the reaction temperature. Rapid mixing of the catalyst components or poor stirring results in a catalyst that is relatively non-uniform in particle size distribution and leads to polymers with an undesirably broad particle size distribution.
Magnesium-forbindelsen, den eventuelle aluminium-, sink-eller bor-forbindelse, og den oksygen-holdige og/eller nitrogen-holdige forbindelse kan blandes i en hvilken som helst rekkefølge. Et bunnfall dannes noen ganger, avhengig av den anvendte oksygen- eller nitrogen-holdige forbindelse, når den oksygen-holdige og/eller nitrogen-holdige forbindelse og magnesium-forbindelse blandes, og klumper vil dannes hvis reaksjonskomponentene blandes med dårlig omrøring, for raskt eller i for konsentrert blanding. Disse klumper resulterer i en ferdig katalysator som inneholder klumper som i sin tur fører til en polymer under slurry-polymerisasjonsbetingelser med en uønsket bred partikkelstørrelsesfordeling med en betydelig prosentandel av partikler som ikke kan passere gjennom en 40 mesh sikt. Tilsetning av en aluminium-, sink-eller bor-forbindelse kan resultere i en hydrokarbon-oppløs-ning av blandingen av magnesium-forbindelse og oksygen-holdig og/eller nitrogen-holdig forbindelse og eliminerer de tidligere nevnte uønskede virkninger. Det foretrekkes å sette den' oksygen-holdige og/eller nitrogen-holdige forbindelse til en oppløsning av magnesium-forbindelsen og aluminium-, sink- eller bor-forbindelsen for å oppnå en ønsket jevn polymerpartikkel-størrelsesfordeling. The magnesium compound, the possible aluminum, zinc or boron compound, and the oxygen-containing and/or nitrogen-containing compound can be mixed in any order. A precipitate is sometimes formed, depending on the oxygen- or nitrogen-containing compound used, when the oxygen-containing and/or nitrogen-containing compound and magnesium compound are mixed, and lumps will form if the reaction components are mixed with poor stirring, too quickly or in too concentrated mixture. These lumps result in a finished catalyst containing lumps which in turn lead to a polymer under slurry polymerization conditions with an undesirably broad particle size distribution with a significant percentage of particles that cannot pass through a 40 mesh sieve. Addition of an aluminum, zinc or boron compound can result in a hydrocarbon solution of the mixture of magnesium compound and oxygen-containing and/or nitrogen-containing compound and eliminates the previously mentioned undesirable effects. It is preferred to add the oxygen-containing and/or nitrogen-containing compound to a solution of the magnesium compound and the aluminium, zinc or boron compound in order to achieve a desired uniform polymer particle size distribution.
Når katalysatoren ifølge oppfinnelsen anvendes under opp-løsnings-polymerisasjonsbetingelser, er den ovennevnte katalysator-partikkelstørrelsesfordeling ikke så viktig. Hvis imidlertid en aluminium-forbindelse tilsettes som et solubili-serende middel, forenkles katalysatorfremstillingen når det anvendes lukkede metallkar for katalysatorfremstillingen, slik som man vil anvende ved kommersiell fremstilling av polymerer og kopolymerer av etylen. When the catalyst according to the invention is used under solution polymerization conditions, the above-mentioned catalyst particle size distribution is not so important. If, however, an aluminum compound is added as a solubilizing agent, the catalyst production is simplified when closed metal vessels are used for the catalyst production, as would be used in the commercial production of polymers and copolymers of ethylene.
Egnede kokatalysatorer eller aktivatorer som katalysa-torene ifølge oppfinnelsen kan omsettes med, bringes i kontakt med eller anvendes sammen med ved polymerisasjonen av a-olefiner, omfatter de aluminium-, bor-, sink- eller magnesium-forbindelser som representeres ved formlene Al (R3)., X , B(R<3>)3_aXa,MgR<3>2,MgR<3>X, ZnR<3>2eller blandinger derav, hvor Suitable cocatalysts or activators with which the catalysts according to the invention can be reacted with, brought into contact with or used together with in the polymerization of α-olefins include the aluminium, boron, zinc or magnesium compounds represented by the formulas Al (R3 )., X , B(R<3>)3_aXa,MgR<3>2,MgR<3>X, ZnR<3>2or mixtures thereof, where
X og R<3>er som tidligere angitt, og a har en verdi fra 0 tilX and R<3> are as previously indicated, and a has a value from 0 to
2, fortrinnsvis 0 til 1, og særlig foretrukket 0.2, preferably 0 to 1, and particularly preferably 0.
Spesielt egnede kokatalysatorer eller aktivatorer omfatter for eksempel dietylaluminiumklorid, etylaluminium-diklorid, dietylaluminiumbromid, trietylaluminium, triisobutylaluminium, dietylsink, dibutylmagnesium, butyletylmagnesium, butylmagnesiumklorid, diisobutylaluminiumhydrid, isoprenylaluminium, trietylbor, trimetylaluminium, blandinger derav og lignende. Particularly suitable cocatalysts or activators include, for example, diethyl aluminum chloride, ethyl aluminum dichloride, diethyl aluminum bromide, triethyl aluminum, triisobutyl aluminum, diethyl zinc, dibutyl magnesium, butyl ethyl magnesium, butyl magnesium chloride, diisobutyl aluminum hydride, isoprenyl aluminum, triethyl boron, trimethyl aluminum, mixtures thereof and the like.
Kokatalysatorene eller aktivatorene anvendes i slike mengder at Al, B, Mg, Zn:Ti eller blandinger derav atomforholdet er fra ca. 0,1:1 til ca. 1000:1, fortrinnsvis fra ca. 5:1 til ca. 500:1, og særlig foretrukket fra ca. 10:1 The cocatalysts or activators are used in such quantities that Al, B, Mg, Zn:Ti or mixtures thereof have an atomic ratio of from approx. 0.1:1 to approx. 1000:1, preferably from approx. 5:1 to approx. 500:1, and particularly preferred from approx. 10:1
til ca. 200:1.to approx. 200:1.
Katalysatoren og kokatalysatoren eller aktivatoren kan settes separat til polymerisasjonsreaktoren, eller de kan blandes sammen før tilsetning til polymerisasjonsreaktoren. The catalyst and cocatalyst or activator may be added separately to the polymerization reactor, or they may be mixed together prior to addition to the polymerization reactor.
Olefiner som hensiktsmessig homopolymeriseres eller kopolymeriseres ved utførelse av foreliggende oppfinnelse, er generelt ett eller flere av de alifatiske a-olefiner som for eksempel etylen, propylen, buten-1, penten-1, 3-metyl-buten-1, 4-metylpenten-l, heksen-1, okten-1, dodecen-1, oktadecen-1, 1,7-oktadien og lignende. Det skal forståes at a-olefiner kan kopolymeriseres med ett eller flere andre a-olefiner og/eller med små mengder, dvs. opp til 2 5 vekt% basert på polymeren, av andre etyleriisk umettede monomerer såsom styren, a-metylstyren og lignende etylenisk umettede monomerer som ikkeødelegger vanlige Ziegler-katalysatorer. Olefins which are suitably homopolymerised or copolymerised in carrying out the present invention are generally one or more of the aliphatic α-olefins such as ethylene, propylene, butene-1, pentene-1, 3-methyl-butene-1, 4-methylpentene- 1, hexene-1, octene-1, dodecene-1, octadecene-1, 1,7-octadiene and the like. It should be understood that α-olefins can be copolymerized with one or more other α-olefins and/or with small amounts, i.e. up to 25% by weight based on the polymer, of other ethylenically unsaturated monomers such as styrene, α-methylstyrene and similar ethylenically unsaturated monomers which do not destroy ordinary Ziegler catalysts.
De fleste fordeler oppnåes ved polymerisasjonen av alifatiske a-monoolefiner, særlig etylen og blandinger av etylen og opp til 50 vekt%, særlig fra ca. 0,1 til ca. 40 vekt% av propylen, buten-1, heksen-1, okten-1, 4-metylpenten-l, 1,7-oktadien eller lignende a-olefin eller a-diolefin basert på total monomer. Most advantages are achieved by the polymerization of aliphatic α-monoolefins, especially ethylene and mixtures of ethylene and up to 50% by weight, especially from approx. 0.1 to approx. 40% by weight of propylene, butene-1, hexene-1, octene-1, 4-methylpentene-1, 1,7-octadiene or similar α-olefin or α-diolefin based on total monomer.
Ved polymerisasjonsprosessen hvor det ovennevnte katalytiske reaksjonsprodukt anvendes, foretaes polymerisasjonen ved tilsetning av en katalytisk mengde av den ovennevnte katalysator-komposisjon til en polymerisasjonssone inneholdende en a-olefinmonomer, eller vice versa. Polymerisasjonssonen holdes ved temperaturer i området fra ca. 0 til ca. 300°C, fortrinnsvis ved slurry-polymerisasjonstemperaturer, for eksempel fra ca. 0 til ca. 95°C, mer foretrukket fra ca. 50 til 90°C, med en oppholdstid på ca. 15 minutter til 24 timer, fortrinnsvis 30 minutter til 8 timer. Det er vanligvis ønskelig å ut-føre . polymerisas jonen i fravær av fuktighet og oksygen, og en katalytisk mengde av det katalytiske reaksjonsprodukt er vanligvis i området fra ca. 0,0001 til ca. 0,1 milligram-atomer titan pr. liter fortynningsmiddel. Det skal imidlertid forståes at den mest fordelaktige katalysator-konsentrasjon vil være avhengig av polymerisasjonsbetingelsene såsom temperatur, trykk, fortynningsmiddel og tilstedeværelse av katalysator-gifter, og at det ovennevnte område er angitt for å vise maksimale katalysator-utbytter. Ved polymerisasjonsprosessen kan det generelt anvendes et bæremiddel som kan være et inert organisk fortynningsmiddel eller overskudd av monomer. For å utnytte den fulle fordel av den høy-effektive katalysator ifølge foreliggende oppfinnelse må man ta sikte på å unngå overmetning av fortynningsmidlet med polymer. Hvis slik metning finner sted før katalysatoren blir oppbrukt, oppnåes ikke den fulle effektivitet av katalysatoren. For de beste resultater foretrekkes at mengden av polymer i bæremidlet ikke overstiger ca. 50 vekt% basert på den totale vekt av reaksjonsblandingen. In the polymerization process where the above-mentioned catalytic reaction product is used, the polymerization is carried out by adding a catalytic amount of the above-mentioned catalyst composition to a polymerization zone containing an α-olefin monomer, or vice versa. The polymerization zone is kept at temperatures in the range from approx. 0 to approx. 300°C, preferably at slurry polymerization temperatures, for example from approx. 0 to approx. 95°C, more preferably from approx. 50 to 90°C, with a residence time of approx. 15 minutes to 24 hours, preferably 30 minutes to 8 hours. It is usually desirable to carry out . The ion is polymerized in the absence of moisture and oxygen, and a catalytic amount of the catalytic reaction product is usually in the range from about 0.0001 to approx. 0.1 milligram-atoms of titanium per liter of diluent. However, it should be understood that the most advantageous catalyst concentration will depend on the polymerization conditions such as temperature, pressure, diluent and presence of catalyst poisons, and that the above range is indicated to show maximum catalyst yields. In the polymerization process, a carrier can generally be used which can be an inert organic diluent or an excess of monomer. In order to take full advantage of the high-efficiency catalyst of the present invention, one must aim to avoid supersaturation of the diluent with polymer. If such saturation takes place before the catalyst is used up, the full efficiency of the catalyst is not achieved. For the best results, it is preferred that the amount of polymer in the carrier does not exceed approx. 50% by weight based on the total weight of the reaction mixture.
Det skal forståes at inerte fortynningsmidler som anvendes i polymerisasjonsblandingen, kan anvendes slik som angitt ovenfor. It should be understood that inert diluents used in the polymerization mixture can be used as indicated above.
De polymerisasjonstrykk som fortrinnsvis anvendes, er forholdsvis lave, for eksempel fra ca. 0,7 til ca. 35 ato. Polymerisasjonen ifølge oppfinnelsen kan imidlertid skje ved trykk fra atmosfæretrykk opp til trykk som bestemmes av kapasiteten hos polymerisasjonsutstyret. Under polymerisasjonen er det ønskelig å omrøre polymerisasjonsblandingen for å oppnå bedre temperatur-kontroll og for å opprettholde jevne polymerisasjonsblandinger i hele polymerisasjonssonen. The polymerization pressures that are preferably used are relatively low, for example from approx. 0.7 to approx. 35 ato. However, the polymerization according to the invention can take place at pressures from atmospheric pressure up to a pressure determined by the capacity of the polymerization equipment. During the polymerization, it is desirable to stir the polymerization mixture to achieve better temperature control and to maintain uniform polymerization mixtures throughout the polymerization zone.
Hydrogen anvendes ofte ved utførelse av foreliggende oppfinnelse for å regulere molekylvekten av den resulterende polymer. For denne oppfinnelses formål er det gunstig å anvende hydrogen i konsentrasjoner varierende fra ca. 0 til ca. 80 volum% i gass- eller flytende fase i polymerisasjonskaret. De høyere mengder hydrogen innenfor dette område er funnet å føre til generelt mer lavmolekylære polymerer. Det skal forståes at hydrogen kan tilsettes med en monomer-strøm til polymerisasjonskaret eller settes separat til karet før, under eller etter tilsetningen av monomer til polymerisasjonskaret, men under eller før tilsetningen av katalysatoren. Under anvendelse av den generelt beskrevne metode kan polymerisasjonsreaktoren drives med flytende materiale eller med en gassfase og ved oppløsnings- eller slurry-polymerisasjonsbetingelser. Hydrogen is often used in carrying out the present invention to regulate the molecular weight of the resulting polymer. For the purposes of this invention, it is advantageous to use hydrogen in concentrations varying from approx. 0 to approx. 80% by volume in gas or liquid phase in the polymerization vessel. The higher amounts of hydrogen within this range have been found to lead to generally lower molecular weight polymers. It should be understood that hydrogen can be added with a monomer stream to the polymerization vessel or added separately to the vessel before, during, or after the addition of monomer to the polymerization vessel, but during or before the addition of the catalyst. Using the generally described method, the polymerization reactor can be operated with liquid material or with a gas phase and under solution or slurry polymerization conditions.
Monomeren eller blandingen av monomerer bringes i kontakt med det katalytiske reaksjonsprodukt på vanlig måte, fortrinnsvis ved å bringe katalysator-komposisjonen og monomer sammen med omhyggelig omrøring som oppnåes ved passende røring The monomer or mixture of monomers is brought into contact with the catalytic reaction product in a conventional manner, preferably by bringing the catalyst composition and monomer together with thorough agitation achieved by suitable stirring
eller på annen måte. Røring kan fortsettes under polymerisasjonen. Når det gjelder raskere reaksjoner med mer aktive katalysatorer, kan man anvende midler for tilbakeløpskjøling av monomer og oppløsningsmiddel, hvis en av de sistnevnte or otherwise. Stirring can be continued during the polymerization. In the case of faster reactions with more active catalysts, means for reflux cooling of monomer and solvent can be used, if one of the latter
er til stede og således fjerne reaksjonsvarmen. I ethvert tilfelle må man sørge for å fjerne den eksoterme polymerisa-sjonsvarme, for eksempel ved avkjøling av reaktorveggene osv. Eventuelt kan monomeren bringes i dampfase i kontakt med det katalytiske reaksjonsprodukt, i nærvær eller fravær av flytende materiale. Polymerisasjonen kan utføres på satsvis måte eller på kontinuerlig måte, som for eksempel ved å føre reaksjonsblandingen gjennom et langstrakt reaksjonsrør som utvendig er i kontakt med et egnet kjølemedium for å opprettholde den ønskede reaksjonstemperatur, eller ved å føre reaksjonsblandingen gjennom en likevekts-overstrømningsreaktor eller en serie av slike. is present and thus remove the heat of reaction. In any case, care must be taken to remove the exothermic polymerization heat, for example by cooling the reactor walls, etc. Optionally, the monomer can be brought in vapor phase into contact with the catalytic reaction product, in the presence or absence of liquid material. The polymerization can be carried out in a batch manner or in a continuous manner, such as by passing the reaction mixture through an elongated reaction tube which is externally in contact with a suitable cooling medium to maintain the desired reaction temperature, or by passing the reaction mixture through an equilibrium overflow reactor or a series of such.
Polymeren utvinnes lett fra polymerisasjonsblandingenThe polymer is easily recovered from the polymerization mixture
ved å avdrive uomsatt monomer og oppløsningsmiddel hvis slikt anvendes. Ingen ytterligere fjernelse av forurensninger kreves. En betydelig fordel ved foreliggende oppfinnelse er således by driving off unreacted monomer and solvent if such is used. No further removal of contaminants is required. A significant advantage of the present invention is thus
at man eliminerer trinnene med fjernelse av katalysator-rest.that one eliminates the steps of removing catalyst residue.
I noen tilfeller kan det imidlertid være ønskelig å tilsetteIn some cases, however, it may be desirable to add
en liten mengde av et katalysator-deaktiverende reagens.a small amount of a catalyst-deactivating reagent.
Den resulterende polymer finnes å inneholde ubetydelige mengder av katalysator-rest. The resulting polymer is found to contain negligible amounts of catalyst residue.

EKSEMPEL 1EXAMPLE 1
A. Katalysator fremstilling:A. Catalyst preparation:
532 milliliter av en 0,470 molar dibutylmagnesium-oppløsning (250 millimol) ble dråpevis tilsatt en omrørt oppløsning av n-propylalkohol (38 ml, 505 millimol) i heksan (400 ml). En opp-løsning av titantetraklorid (55 ml, 500 millimol) i heksan (200 ml) ble dråpevis tilsatt til den resulterende oppslemning under kontinuerlig omrøring. 342 milliliter av 1,46 molar dietylaluminiumklorid (500 millimol) ble dråpevis tilsatt over en periode på 2 timer under kontinuerlig omrøring. De hydrokarbon-uoppløselige produkter ble tillatt å sedimentere, og den overliggende oppløsning ble fjernet ved dekantering. De faste stoffer ble igjen oppslemmet i frisk heksan. Dekanteringsprosedyren ble gjentatt ytterligere 4 ganger for å fjerne de heksan-oppløselige reaksjonsprodukter. 532 milliliters of a 0.470 molar dibutylmagnesium solution (250 mmol) was added dropwise to a stirred solution of n-propyl alcohol (38 mL, 505 mmol) in hexane (400 mL). A solution of titanium tetrachloride (55 mL, 500 mmol) in hexane (200 mL) was added dropwise to the resulting slurry with continuous stirring. 342 milliliters of 1.46 molar diethyl aluminum chloride (500 millimoles) was added dropwise over a period of 2 hours with continuous stirring. The hydrocarbon-insoluble products were allowed to settle, and the supernatant solution was removed by decantation. The solids were reslurried in fresh hexane. The decantation procedure was repeated an additional 4 times to remove the hexane-soluble reaction products.
B. Polymerisering av etylen:B. Polymerization of ethylene:
En målt porsjon av katalysatoroppslemning, fremstilt i A ovenfor, innholdende 0,025 millimol titan ble tilsatt til en 1,8 liters omrørt reaktor av rustfritt stål inneholdende 1,0 liter tørt, oksygenfritt heksan og 2,0 ml av 0,616 molar triisobutylaluminium. De molare forhold Al:Ti var 49:1. Reaktorens nitrogenatmosfære ble erstattet med hydrogen ved gjennomblåsing, reaktorens innhold ble oppvarmet til 85°C, og reaktorens trykk ble regulert til 70 psig (5 kg/cm ) med hydrogen. Etylen ble så tilsatt for opprettholdelse av et reaktortrykk på 170 psig (12 kg/cm.2) . Etter to timer ved 85°C ble reaktorens innhold filtrert og polyetylenet tørket i et vakuum natten over ved ca. 60°C, hvilket gav 283 gram polyetylen med en smelteindeks på 0,7 og en romvekt på 19,3 lbs/ft 3 (0,31 g/ml). Katalysatorens effektivitet var 236 000 gram polyetylen pr. gram titan. A metered portion of catalyst slurry, prepared in A above, containing 0.025 millimoles of titanium was added to a 1.8 liter stirred stainless steel reactor containing 1.0 liters of dry, oxygen-free hexane and 2.0 ml of 0.616 molar triisobutylaluminum. The Al:Ti molar ratio was 49:1. The reactor nitrogen atmosphere was replaced with hydrogen by purging, the reactor contents were heated to 85°C, and the reactor pressure was regulated to 70 psig (5 kg/cm 2 ) with hydrogen. The ethylene was then added to maintain a reactor pressure of 170 psig (12 kg/cm 2 ). After two hours at 85°C, the contents of the reactor were filtered and the polyethylene dried in a vacuum overnight at approx. 60°C, yielding 283 grams of polyethylene with a melt index of 0.7 and a bulk density of 19.3 lbs/ft 3 (0.31 g/ml). The catalyst's efficiency was 236,000 grams of polyethylene per grams of titanium.

A. Katalysator fremstilling:A. Catalyst preparation:
En oppløsning av n-propylalkohol (37,6 ml, 500 millimol) i heksan (100 ml) ble dråpevis tilsatt på 1/2 time til en om-rørt oppløsning av 532 ml 0,470 molar dibutylmagnesium (250 millimol). Heksan ble tilsatt til den resulterende oppslemning til et totalvolum på 800 ml. En oppløsning av TiCl4 (55,0 ml, 500 millimol) i heksan (200 ml) ble dråpevis tilsatt over en periode på en time. Oppslemningen ble fortynnet med heksan til 1200 ml og de hydrokarbon-uoppløselige produkter tillatt å sedimentere. En del av den overliggende væske (600 ml) ble fjernet ved dekantering. De faste stoffer ble igjen oppslemmet i frisk heksan (600 ml). Dekanteringen ble gjentatt ytterligere to ganger for fjerning av heksanoppløselige reaksjonsprodukter.

Oppløsningens temperatur ble holdt ved under 40°C mens 1,00 dpv n-propylalkohol og 6,33 dpv heksan ble tilsatt. Den resulterende oppløsnings-temperatur b-le holdt ved 35°C mens 3,08 dpv titantetraklorid langsomt ble tilsatt. Den resulterende oppslemning ble kjølt til ca. 25°C, de faste stoffer tillatt å sedimentere og den overliggende væske fjernet ved dekantering. De faste stoffer ble igjen oppslemmet i frisk heksan og dekanteringsprosedyren gjentatt inntil mindre enn 10 mol% av det samlede titaninnhold er i oppløsning. A solution (4.14 parts by weight, dpv) of butylethylmagnesium containing 2.40 wt% magnesium in heptane and a solution (2.19 dpv) of 20.3 wt% triisobutylaluminum in hexane were mixed in a jacketed stirred reactor . The temperature of the solution was maintained at below 40°C while 1.00 dpv n-propyl alcohol and 6.33 dpv hexane were added. The resulting solution temperature was maintained at 35°C while 3.08 dpv of titanium tetrachloride was slowly added. The resulting slurry was cooled to approx. 25°C, the solids allowed to settle and the overlying liquid removed by decantation. The solids were reslurried in fresh hexane and the decantation procedure repeated until less than 10 mol% of the total titanium content is in solution.
Den resulterende oppslemning etter dekanteringene var 140 millimolar med hensyn på magnesium og hadde en samlet vekt på 6,84 dpv. Titantetraklorid (0,59 dpv) ble tilsatt til den omrørte oppslemning. En 25 vekt% dietylaluminiumklorid-oppløsning (1,64 dpv) i heksan ble langsomt tilsatt til den omrørte blanding. De faste stoffer ble tillatt å sedimentere og den overliggende væske fjernet ved dekantering. De faste stoffer ble igjen oppslemmet i frisk heksan og dekanteringsprosedyren gjentatt flere ganger for fjerning av de hydrokarbonoppløselige stoffer. The resulting slurry after the decantations was 140 millimolar with respect to magnesium and had a total weight of 6.84 dpv. Titanium tetrachloride (0.59 dpv) was added to the stirred slurry. A 25% by weight diethylaluminum chloride solution (1.64 dpv) in hexane was slowly added to the stirred mixture. The solids were allowed to settle and the overlying liquid was removed by decantation. The solids were reslurried in fresh hexane and the decantation procedure repeated several times to remove the hydrocarbon solubles.
B. Polymerisering:B. Polymerization:
Den i eksempel 30(A) fremstilte katalysator ble fortynnet med heksan til 0,3 millimolar med hensyn på titan. Denne fortynnede katalysator ble så tilsatt, med en hastighet på ca. 12 dpv pr. time, til en partielt full agitert reaktor. Samtidig ble 100 dpv etylen pr. time, 1 dpv buten-1 pr. time og 22 3 dpv heksan pr. time tilsatt reaktoren mens reaktorens temperatur og trykk ble regulert ved henholdsvis 85°C og 170 psig. En 2 vekt% oppløsning av triisobutylaluminium i heksan ble tilsatt med en slik hastighet at den gav et Al/Ti-atomforhold på ca. 50:1 i reaktoren. Hydrogen ble tilsatt til reaktorens gassformige fase slik at den ønskede polymer-smelteindeks ble oppnådd. Reaktorens innhold ble uttatt kontinuerlig, polymeren og heksanet ble separert og den tørkede polymer oppsamlet. Polymeren hadde en smelteindeks på 11. Katalysatorens effektivitet var ca. 400 000 pund polymer pr. pund titan. The catalyst prepared in Example 30(A) was diluted with hexane to 0.3 millimolar with respect to titanium. This diluted catalyst was then added, at a rate of approx. 12 dpv per hour, to a partially full agitated reactor. At the same time, 100 dpv ethylene per hour, 1 dpv buten-1 per hour and 22 3 dpv hexane per hour added to the reactor while the reactor temperature and pressure were regulated at 85°C and 170 psig respectively. A 2% by weight solution of triisobutylaluminum in hexane was added at such a rate that it gave an Al/Ti atomic ratio of approx. 50:1 in the reactor. Hydrogen was added to the gaseous phase of the reactor so that the desired polymer melt index was achieved. The contents of the reactor were withdrawn continuously, the polymer and hexane were separated and the dried polymer collected. The polymer had a melt index of 11. The catalyst's efficiency was approx. 400,000 pounds of polymer per pound of titanium.
