Abstract:

Constrained geometry catalyst (CGC) is particularly suitable for the preparation of high performance polyolefin elastomer (POE) using ethylene and α-olefin solution polymerization process. Based on the reaction mechanism of ethylene copolymerization with 1-octene catalyzed by CGC, a kinetic model was established and its kinetic parameters were determined. The kinetic model was validated by the consumption rate of ethylene and catalyst activity. Based on the kinetic model and sequence structure oriented copolymerization mechanism, a sequence distribution model of ethylene and 1-octene copolymerization was established. The model can accurately predict the sequence distribution, the content of short branch chains and their changing trend with reaction conditions. The results show that with the increase of 1-octene concentration, the average sequence length of ethylene decreases gradually and linearly, while the average sequence length of 1-octene increases linearly. The model can provide a theoretical reference for regulating the structure of the POE chain from the perspective of polymerization process.

摘要:

限制几何构型催化剂(constrained geometry catalyst,CGC)特别适用于乙烯与α-烯烃溶液聚合法制备高性能聚烯烃弹性体POE(polyolefin elastomer)。基于CGC催化乙烯与1-辛烯共聚反应机理,建立了乙烯与1-辛烯共聚反应动力学模型并确定了动力学参数。采用前期实验获得的乙烯消耗速率曲线与催化剂平均活性验证了动力学模型的准确性。基于动力学模型和面向序列结构的共聚机理,建立了乙烯与1-辛烯共聚过程序列分布模型。模型可准确预测序列分布与短支链含量及其随反应条件的变化趋势。结果表明,随着1-辛烯浓度的增加,乙烯序列长度逐渐减小,其平均序列长度线性降低,而1-辛烯平均序列平均长度呈线性增加的趋势。所建模型可为从聚合过程角度调控POE链结构提供理论参考。
