Definitions

  • the present invention pertains to process for manufacturing ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. It also pertains to a method for converting the polyethylene into a polyethylene film.
  • EP 1057835 describes a process for the polymerisation of ethylene at a temperature between 250 and 500K with a lanthanide catalyst. It is indicated that the catalyst may in principle be used on a support, but this is not elucidated further. The catalyst is used for the production of polyethylene with a low degree of chain entanglement due to crystallisation of individual chains during polymer formation.
  • Ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene with a low degree of entanglement is produced by polymerisation of ethylene at a temperature of 225 to 325K using an unsupported single-site catalyst or a mixture of unsupported single-site catalysts at a catalyst concentration of less than 1.10-4 mol/1.

This document contains only a general description of how the UHMWPE is to be manufactured. It mentions the possibility of using a catalyst on a support, but does not elucidate anything.
  • the invention is therefore directed to a process for manufacturing an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, wherein olefin monomers are contacted with a catalytic system under polymerisation conditions to form a polyethylene, wherein the catalytic system comprises an active component on a particulate carrier in a site density in the range of 5*10 (- 9) to 5*10 (-6) mole of catalytic sites per m2 of carrier surface area, the particulate carrier having an average particle diameter in the range of 1-300 nm, wherein the polyethylene has a weight average molecular weight (Mw) of at

  • catalysts may be used with or without an activator.
  • the site density is calculated as the number of moles of catalyst that are added to the carrier particles, divided by the specific surface area of the carrier particles. This latter value can be determined via BET as is known in the art.
  • the catalyst does not have to be removed from the polymer after polymerisation, but will be further processed with the polymer .
  • the catalyst particles have an average particle diameter in the range of 1-300 nm.
  • the use of smaller particles is considered preferred, because this will lead to polyethylene with a more disentangled character.
  • the average diameter is determined via dynamic light scattering (DLS) , BET, and/or electron microscopy. It is noted that as the presence of active catalyst component will not influence the particle size of the carrier to any measurable extent, the values given in this specification apply equally to the carrier and to the catalyst.
  • the relationship between the site density of the catalyst on the carrier and the particle size of the carrier can translate into an average number of sites per carrier particle which is in the range of 1 to 1000.
  • the quality of the polymer will be improved if the number of sites per particle is relatively limited. It is believed that this will reduce the chances of polymer molecules interacting with each other. It is therefore considered preferred for the average number of sites per carrier particle to be in the range of 1 to 500.
  • the number of sites per catalyst particle will depend, int. al., on the amount of catalyst to be added to the system, and on the particle size of the material. If there are a low number of sites per particle, the number of particles will be relatively high, and this may result in the presence of substantial amounts of carrier material in the system.
  • the number of sites per particle is in the range of 50-500 sites per particle, e.g., in the range of 100-400 sites per particle more in particular in the range of 150 to 300 sites per particle. In another embodiment, the number of sites per particle is in the range of 1 to 50, still more in particular in the range of 1-10, or even in the range of 1-5. To avoid waste of material, the lower ranges mentioned above are preferably obtained with relatively small particles, e.g., with an average diameter of 1-50 nm, more in particular 1-20 nm, or even smaller.

Transformation-toughened zirconia, which is commercially available, has a microstructure m which the zirconia is in the tetragonal phase. When transformation toughened zirconia is put under stress, the material will transform from the tetragonal phase into the monoclinic phase. This phase transformation is accompanied by expansion of the material.
  • transformation-toughened zirconia when transformation-toughened zirconia is put under stress, the expansion of the material caused by the phase transformation will stop propagation of cracks formed in the material. Moreover, the presence of zirconia in the polymer matrix will promote delocalisation of stresses generated during impact, thus circumventing the brittle nature of ceramics. Accordingly, transformation-toughened zirconia is capable of absorbing substantial amounts of energy, and its presence in a ballistic material thus helps to dissipate impact energy.
