摘要:
The synthesis of [TiInd(N=CBu2)Cl-2] and the applications of [TiCp'(N=C'Bu-2)Cl-2] (Cp'= Ind, Cp*, Cp) as ethylene and propylene homopolymerisation catalysts, as well as its behaviour as catalysts of ethylene and 10-undecen-l-ol copolymerisation are described. The optimisation of the catalytic reactions showed that all compounds are very active homopolymerisation catalysts, particularly [TiInd(N=C'Bu-2)Cl-2] that gives 123.37 x 10(6) g/(molTi [E] h) and 50.77 x 10(6) g/(molTi [P] h) of linear polyethylene and atatic polypropylene, respectively. The less active homopolymerisation catalyst, [TiCp(N=C'Bu-2)Cl-2], is the most effective ethylene/ 10-undecen-l-ol copolymerisation catalyst, leading to the highest degree of polar monomer incorporation. The polymers obtained were characterised by NMR and DSC. The molecular structures of [TiCp'(N=C'Bu-2)Cl-2] (Cp= Ind, Cp*) were determined by Xray diffraction studies. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V.
