- High molecular weight, high density polyethylene is used to manufacture storage containers, such as large industrial drums (e.g., 30- and 55- gallons) and intermediate bulk containers (IBC) such as 100- and 300-gallon containers.
- HMW HDPE is also used in sheet extrusion/thermoforming operations to produce large parts such as truck bed liners, "port-a-potties” or portable toilets, and "dunnage trays” for holding and transporting large industrial parts such as transmissions.
- the end user expects - and governmental regulations often require - that the container meet certain minimum requirements, such as for impact resistance, top load, Environmental Stress Crack Resistance (ESCR), and chemical resistance.
- ESCR Environmental Stress Crack Resistance
- chemical resistance the manufacturer of the containers expect ease of processability.
- a chromium compound such as chromium oxide
- a support of one or more inorganic oxides such as silica, alumina, zirconia or thoria
- inorganic oxides such as silica, alumina, zirconia or thoria
- U.S. Patent No. 2,825,721 describes chromium catalysts and methods of making the catalysts. It is also known to increase polymer melt index by using a silica-titania support as disclosed, for example, in U.S. Patent No. 3,887,494. Numerous activation procedures have been described in the prior art for optimizing catalyst performance and resultant ethylene polymer characteristics, such as U.S. Patent Nos.
- Embodiments of the present invention may have the advantage over previously known methods of producing blow molding HDPE by having an improved ESCR versus density relationship, yet maintaining good processing and stiffness characteristics.
- a process to polymerize ethylene, or ethylene and at least one other olef ⁇ n, particularly an alpha olefin, and even more particularly an alpha olefin comprising 3 to 10 carbon atoms to produce a polymer particularly suitable for the large part molding market, (e.g., blow molding, sheet extrusion/thermoforming especially in the production of containers such as 30- and 55-gallon drums and IBCs.
- an object of the invention is to provide an activated catalyst for the manufacture of blow molding resin.
- the invention provides polyethylene resins produced by the inventive process, and articles formed of such resins.
- Typical articles include, for example, containers for the shipping of large industrial parts, and industrial bulk containers such as drums (e.g., 30- and 55-gallon drums), and the like, and 100-, 300-, and 400-gallon IBCs, and the like.
- the support is a silica-titania support.
- Silica-titania supports are well known in the art and are described, for example, in U.S. Patent No. 3,887,494.
- Silica-titania supports can be produced as described in U.S. Patent Nos. 3,887,494, 5,096,868 or 6,174,981 by "cogelling" or coprecipitating silica and a titanium compound.
- Such a cogel can be produced by contacting an alkali metal silicate such as sodium silicate with an acid such as sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid or acetic acid, or an acidic salt.
- the titanium component can be conveniently dissolved in the acid or alkali metal silicate solution and co- precipitated with the silica.
- the titanium compound can be incorporated in the acid in any form in which it subsequently will be incorporated in the silica gel formed on combination of the silicate and the acid and from which form it is subsequently convertible to titanium oxide on calcination.
- Suitable titanium compounds include, but are not limited to, halides such as TiCl 3 and TiCl 4 , nitrates, sulfates, oxalates and alkyl titanates. In instances where carbon dioxide is used as the acid, the titanium can be incorporated into the alkali metal silicate itself.
- the titanium compound can be incorporated in the alkali metal silicate and in such instances, convenient titanium compounds are water soluble materials which do not precipitate the silicate, i.e., are those convertible to titanium oxide on calcination such as, for example, various titanium oxalates, such as K 2 TiO(C 2 0 4 ) 2 -H 2 O, (NH 4 ) 2 TiO(C 2 O 4 ) 2 -H 2 O and Ti 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 3 ⁇ 2 O.
- various titanium oxalates such as K 2 TiO(C 2 0 4 ) 2 -H 2 O, (NH 4 ) 2 TiO(C 2 O 4 ) 2 -H 2 O and Ti 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 3 ⁇ 2 O.
- the term "silica-titania" support includes supports formed by any of these coprecipitation or cogel processes, or other processes by which titania and silica are both incorporated into the support.
- titanium is incorporated by surface-modifying a supported chromium catalyst.
- a supported chromium catalyst is meant to include any supported chromium catalyst that is further modified to include titanium; see, e.g., C.E. Marsden, Plastics, Rubber and Composites Processing and Applications, 21 (1994), 193- 200.
- the alkyl group R of the alkoxide can be a C 3 to C 8 linear or branched alkyl group; a particular example of a suitable titanium alkoxide is titanium tetraisopropoxide.
- the titanium compound preferably is generally present in an amount of from a lower limit of 0.5% or 1% or 2° o by weight to an upper limit of 12% or 10% or 8% or 6% or 5% or 4% or 3% by " weight, with ranges from any lower limit to any upper limit being contemplated. It is preferred that the amount of titanium be in the range of 1.0 wt.% to 5.0 wt.%, more preferably 1.5 wt.% to 4.5 wt.% (3.0 ⁇ 1.5 wt.%). In an embodiment, the even more preferable range is 2.5 ⁇ 0.5 wt.%.
- the chromium compound can be incorporated in any convenient method known in the art.
- a chromium compound and optionally a titanium compound is dissolved in an acidic material or the silicate and thus coprecipitated with the silica.
- a suitable chromium compound for this method is chromic sulfate.
- Another method to incorporate a chromium compound into the catalyst system is to use a hydrocarbon solution of a chromium compound convertible to chromium oxide to impregnate the support after it is spray dried or azeotrope dried (i.e., a xerogel). Exemplary of such materials are t-butyl chromate, chromium acetylacetonate, and the like.
- Suitable solvents include, but are not limited to, pentane, hexane, benzene, and the like.
- an aqueous solution of a chromium compound simply can be physically mixed with the support.
- Chromium can be present in the catalyst an amount from a lower limit of 0.1 or 0.5 or 0.8 or 1.0% by weight to an upper limit of 10% or 8% or 5% or 4% or 3% or 2% by weight, with ranges from any lower limit to any upper limit being contemplated.
- the preferred amount of chromium is about 1.0 ⁇ 0.5 wt.%, particularly when the process utilizes the slurry loop platform, discussed more fully below.
- inorganic oxides may optionally be present, such as thoria, zirconia, boron oxide, alumina, and the like, but in a preferred embodiment, with regard to inorganic oxides other than that of the silica support, only the oxides of chromium and titanium are present to the extent provided by ordinary purification techniques. In another embodiment, additional metals are permissible provided they do not materially affect the basic characteristics of the catalyst or the activation procedure according to the present invention.
- the weight percent of the aforementioned metals are based on the weight of the support, e.g, silica in the preferred embodiment.
- Catalysts as described above which are useful in the present invention are commercially available, such as The PQ Corporation, W.R. Grace and Company, and Ineos Silicas Americas, LLC.
- the catalyst treated by the process according to the present invention comprises chromium and titanium on a support.
- the catalyst used in the process according to the present invention will be a commercial supported catalyst that may have hydrocarbon residues deposited thereon.
- a beneficial hydrocarbon treatment has been described previously and used in activating catalysts for producing utility conduit resin and extruded pipe resin, in PCT/US03/09871, PCT/US03/09869 and PCT/US03/09870, respectively. It is highly surprising that such treatment could be useful in producing resin for blow molding and sheet extrusion/thermoforming applications.
- the chromium and titanium-based supported catalyst to be treated by the method described herein has hydrocarbon residues deposited thereon.
- Hydrocarbon residues as used herein means any species or moiety containing hydrogen and carbon, which is present on the catalyst and/or support. Without limitation, such hydrocarbon residues may be present on the catalyst and/or support as a result of having been deposited during the manufacture of the catalyst or support, such as organic solvent residues or by the deposition of one or more of chromium, titanium, zirconium, aluminum, and boron on the support from an organic solution (e.g., chromium acetate), such as described in the previously mentioned U.S Patent No. 5,895,770. Hydrocarbon residues may also be present in supported catalysts comprising chromium and/or titanium made by gel processes such as in the cogel and tergel catalysts described previously.
- chromium and titanium-based supported catalyst is intended to distinguish the catalyst according to the present invention from a “chromium-based catalyst” which does not contain titanium.
- Chromium and titanium and optional species, if present, may have been deposited from solution and hydrocarbon residues are present at least in part as a result of this deposition process (e.g., hydrocarbon residues may be from the solvent or metal counter ion). Hydrocarbon residues may also be present as a result of the manufacture or processing of the support.
- the chromium and titanium-based supported catalyst according to the present invention is then placed in an activating reactor to be treated by the process according to the present invention.
- the invention may be practiced using any known method for bringing gases and solids into contact with each other, such as in a static bed or a fluidizing bed.
- activating reactor is not intended to be limiting with respect to equipment design or configuration, and the terms "activator” and “activating reactor” are used interchangably herein for convenience.
- the activating reactor will be a fluidized bed reactor.
- the activating reactor may be heated by, for instance, internal activator reactor rods, by an external source of heat applied to the activating reactor walls, such as electrical heat or by heat of combustion, by provision for heating the gas entering the activating reactor via one or more gas inlet valves, or by a combination of such heating sources, all of which can be measured and controlled by means per se well known.
- an external source of heat applied to the activating reactor walls such as electrical heat or by heat of combustion
- provision for heating the gas entering the activating reactor via one or more gas inlet valves or by a combination of such heating sources, all of which can be measured and controlled by means per se well known.
- activator temperature is typically measured at or very close to the catalyst bed and thus, as would be understood by one of skill in the art, “activator temperature” is taken as surrogate for the temperature of the catalyst.
- the catalyst used in the process according to the present invention is a chromium and titanium-based supported catalyst activated in activator at about 370-540°C (700-1000°F), preferably 370-450°C (700-850°F), more preferably 370-425°C (700-800°F), still more preferably 370 to 400°C (700-750°F), under an inert atmosphere, followed by the introduction of an oxidant, preferably in the form of air, and controlling the reactor temperature so that the temperature of the catalyst activator does not exceed 510°C (950°F), preferably no higher than about 480°C (900°F), and yet still more preferably no higher than about 450°C (850°F), most preferably no higher than about 425°C (800°F).
- the activator temperature is controlled by the rate of addition of oxygen and by the temperature of the gas entering the activator.
- the present invention also includes a process for polymerizing ethylene including treating a chromium and titanium-containing supported catalyst at about 370-400°C (700-750°F) under an inert atmosphere which may be at least partially preheated to a temperature higher or lower than the activating reactor temperature, followed by the controlled introduction of an oxidant, preferably in the form of air, which has been preheated to a temperature no greater than about 400°C (750°F), most preferably by air which has been preheated to about 200°C (400°F) or less, while controlling the temperature spike so that the temperature of the catalyst activator does not exceed 510°C (950°F), preferably no higher than about 480°C (900°F), and yet still more preferably no higher than about 450°C (850°F), most preferably no higher than about 425 °C (800°F).
- additional hold periods at temperatures lower than 370°C are contemplated.
- the activator temperature is ramped up from room temperature to about 205°C ⁇ 25°C (400°F ⁇ 45 °F) at about 220°C/hr (400F/hr) and held at this temperature under a nitrogen atmosphere for a period of one minute to up to about 6 hours, or even more, followed by a temperature ramp up to a preselected temperature between about 370-540°C (700-1000°F), preferably 370-450°C (700-850°F), more preferably 370-425°C (700-800°F), still more preferably 370 to 400°C (700-750°F), at a rate of about 200°C/hr (350°F/hr), while still under an inert atmosphere.
- This temperature and inert atmosphere is then held constant for a period of from one minute up to about 6 hours.
- the nitrogen (or inert gas) treatment may occur to an even higher temperature, however (without wishing to be bound by theory) it is believed that above about 540°C (1000°F) the supported chromium and titanium catalyst may be converted partially or wholly into a form ("green batch") which is less amenable to a subsequent treatment with oxygen. A green batch may also be observed under conditions where the oxygen is present at a concentration of less than about 20% by volume, i.e., less oxygen than is normally present in air. Thus temperatures of above about 540°C should be avoided during the treatment under pure nitrogen or other inert gaseous treatment and during conditions where pure nitrogen is mixed with air.
- Activation may then be completed by contacting the catalyst in the activating reactor with an oxidizing atmosphere, preferably an atmosphere consisting essentially of air.
- an oxidizing atmosphere preferably an atmosphere consisting essentially of air.
- the final activation hold temperature is a key to the blow molding resin according to the present invention.
- a lower final hold temperature yields a polymer having a better ESCR but its activity will be too low for economical polymerization reactor operation, while a higher final hold temperature yields improved polymerization reactor performance but without adequate ESCR.
- activator temperature is typically measured at or very close to the catalyst bed and thus, as would be understood by one of skill in the art, "activating reactor temperature” or “activator” is taken as surrogate for the temperature of the catalyst.
- the thus-activated supported chromium and titanium-based catalyst is then preferably cooled to about 150-315°C (300-600°F), purged with nitrogen while cooling to room temperature and then used as desired.

- a hydrocarbon carrier or diluent advantageously aliphatic paraffin such as propane, butane, isobutane, isopentane, or mixtures thereof.
- propane, butane, isobutane, isopentane or mixtures thereof.
- the slurry loop olefin polymerization reactor may be operated in a single stage process or in multistage processes. In multistage processing, the polymerization of olefins is carried out in two or more polymerization reactors. These polymerization reactors can be configured in series, in parallel, or a combination thereof.
- U.S. Pat. No. 6,380,325 sets forth a two stage flash process which is a preferred platform to practice the present invention.
- the resin according to the present invention may be produced using the catalyst treated according to the processes described above by slurry loop polymerization conducted at temperature conditions in the range of about 88- 110°C (190-230°F).

- the catalyst is held in the activating reactor under these conditions for about 3.5 hours.
- the gas inlet preheaters are set to 450°C (850°F) during the period that the activating reactor temperature is held at 400°C (750°F) under nitrogen, and shortly before the introduction of the 20 CFM of air, the gas inlet preheaters are lowered to about 200°C (400°F).
- a controlled amount of oxidant is introduced, in the form of dry air at a rate of 20 CFM, with a decrease in the nitrogen flow to approximately 122 CFM, so that the amount of oxygen in the activating reactor is at a concentration of about 2.8% by volume, while maintaining the activating reactor at about 400°C (750°F).
