Description

A kind of High-melt-strength propylene/butene copolymer and preparation method thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to and a kind ofly prepare the method with high melt strength, propylene, be specifically related to a kind of preparation method of propylene/butene random copolymer.The invention still further relates to a kind of propylene/butene random copolymer with high fondant-strength.
Technical background
Obtain a wide range of applications in the manufacture fields such as the cutting out property of propylene polymer structures makes it in injection moulding, extrudes, curtain coating, two-way stretch, but common polypropylene molecule limits its application in fields such as thermoforming, foaming and blowings because melt strength is not high.Therefore, development has the polypropylene of high fondant-strength and good ductility, is the interested problems of people always.So-called high melt strength, propylene (HMSPP) just refers to melt under tension, can bear higher power during fracture.In the prior art, melt flow rate (MFR) MFR is the propene polymer of about 2g/10min, and its higher melt strength can reach 0.8-1N (newton).
The principal element affecting melt strength of polypropylene is the structure of polymer molecule, comprises the size of molecular weight, and whether molecular weight distribution and molecular chain contain the length of long-chain branch and long-chain branch and distribution etc.Usually, the molecular weight of propene polymer is larger, and its melt strength is larger; But molecular weight is larger, more unfavorable for polyacrylic post-treatment processability.Therefore, consider the practical application of material, making polypropylene have wider molecular weight distribution is needs; In addition, make to produce long branched chain structure in polypropylene molecular chain, also can improve polyacrylic melt strength.
In prior art, the method for conventional raising melt strength of polypropylene mainly contains: the methods such as reactive extrursion method, radiation modification method and modulation polymerization technique technology.Reactive extrursion method is by adding superoxide and other polyfunctional reactant monomers in polypropylene powder, forms polyacrylic crosslinked or long chain branching, thus improve polyacrylic melt strength by the technique of reactive extrursion.The principle of radiation modification selects suitable source of radiation and dose delivery polypropylene, caused, reach the object of grafting by irradiation, can directly linear chain be ruptured, shift and reconfigure, formation branching by irradiated polypropylene during irradiation; Also irradiation is carried out again after can adding polyfunctional monomer in polypropylene, between macromole, ligation is played after polyfunctional monomer is excited, thus formation branched structure, make to produce long branched chain structure in polypropylene molecular chain, thus improve polyacrylic melt strength.
And modulation polymerization technique technology is the method more commonly used, it is normally prepared broad molecular weight distribution polypropylene by multiple reactor or obtains long chain branched polypropylene with metallocene catalyst in-situ polymerization, thus improves the melt strength of final polymkeric substance.Wherein, adopt the reactor of multiple series connection to prepare broad molecular weight distribution polypropylene to commonly use the most, it is normally selecting different amounts of hydrogen, different comonomers, namely the polypropylene being obtained wide molecular weight distribution (MWD) in the different reactor of production differing molecular weight polymers by series polymerizations is conducive to, such as: wherein a kind of reactor is conducive to the polymkeric substance producing higher molecular weight, another kind of reactor is then conducive to the polymkeric substance producing lower molecular weight.
Such as, disclose a kind of method preparing the propene polymer with high fondant-strength and wide molecular weight distribution in US Patent No. 6875826 and US7365136, it is in the endless tube-gas-phase polymerization reactor of series connection, select a kind of Ziegler-Natta catalyst with lower hydrogen response, the maximum feature of this Ziegler-Natta catalyst is exactly need to adopt a kind of siloxanes containing cycloalkyl such as dicyclopentyl dimethoxyl silane as external electron donor, to carry out multistage (two reactors) propylene homo and close or copolymerization.By controlling the density of hydrogen of each reactor, the polypropylene (MFR < 0.1g/10min) of first stage production " high molecular weight block ", its weight content is 10-35%, subordinate phase produces the polypropylene (MFR > 0.5g/10min) of " low molecular weight fraction ", its weight content is the MFR=0.1-20g/10min of 65-90%, final polymkeric substance.Reaction finally obtains having wide molecular weight distribution (M w/ M n> 6), linear high fondant-strength alfon.
When adopt above-mentioned prepare the method for broad molecular weight distribution polypropylene by multiple reactor time, perfect condition makes the molecular weight of the high molecular weight block of decision mechanical properties of polymer and degree of isotacticity more high better, especially possesses a certain amount of " very high molecular weight block "; And determine that the molecular weight of " low molecular weight fraction " of polymer-extruded performance (processing characteristics) is more low better, and need to possess more content.For propylene polymerization, the kind of external electron donor can produce significantly impact to the taxis of polymkeric substance and molecular weight distribution usually; But the component of catalyzer and characteristic not change in two reactors in above-mentioned patent, therefore in the polyreaction in two stages, catalyzer is consistent for the reaction sensibility of molecular weight regulator (hydrogen), has certain limitation like this for the control of polymer chain characteristic or adjustment.
Specifically, when in catalyst system, use has the external electron donor of lower hydrogen response, as used dicyclopentyl dimethoxyl silane in patent US6875826, although the molecular weight of polymkeric substance can be made higher in the first stage of producing higher molecular weight fraction, but it is when producing the subordinate phase of lower molecular weight fraction, due to the insensitivity that external electron donor is adjusted hydrogen, then need high hydrogen content, just likely reach actual requirement.And if in catalyst system use have higher hydrogen adjust susceptibility external electron donor time, although hydrogen usage is less when producing the subordinate phase of lower molecular weight fraction, the polyacrylic extrusion performance of product is also easy to be met, but it is when producing the first stage of higher molecular weight fraction, it is enough large that molecular weight can not do, thus affect the mechanical property of the finished product.
Polypropylene resin composite described in patent CN1241196A and uses thereof, also uses two-stage method to obtain the polypropylene resin composite of high melting tension force; Wherein the first stage prepares the polypropylene of high molecular under no hydrogen condition, and second segment prepares low-molecular-weight polypropylene under hydrogen existence condition, uses identical external electron donor, as dicyclopentyl dimethoxyl silane in whole process; Preparation-obtained polypropylene can be greater than 1.5 × 10 containing molecular weight 6high molecular weight components.But it can not solve the adjoint problem of aforementioned patent US6875826 equally.
Although disclosed the method using the catalyzer of two kinds of different external electron donors in different steps in prior art, such as in patent CN1156999A " dual donor catalyst system for olefinic polymerization ", its first stage uses tetraethoxysilane to make external electron donor, and subordinate phase uses dicyclopentyl dimethoxyl silane to make external electron donor; Patent CN1612901A and US6686433B1 in addition similarly.Its processing step is all first prepare small molecules polypropylene, then at the more macromolecular polypropylene of subordinate phase preparation, thus obtain the polyolefine of high-crystallinity.If use method described in these patents to produce polypropylene, when the first stage prepares small molecules, this adjusts responsive higher external electron donor also will work in subordinate phase to hydrogen, thus cannot prepare supramolecular in subordinate phase.Equally, the propene polymer of the high fondant-strength with superior mechanical property and processing characteristics cannot also be obtained in these patents.

As everyone knows, polymer is not made up of the compound of unimodal molecular weight, even the polymer of a kind of " purely ", the mixture of the polymeric homologue that, molecular weight identical by chemical constitution is not etc. yet, structure is different formed.The characteristic of this high molecular molecular weight heterogeneity (i.e. molecular size range differ, uneven), is just called the polymolecularity of molecular weight.The high molecular molecular weight generally recorded is all molecular-weight average.The molecular-weight average of polymkeric substance is identical, but dispersiveness is not necessarily identical.Usually, people use gel permeation chromatograph to measure the molecular weight distribution of polymkeric substance, can obtain number-average molecular weight, weight-average molecular weight, Z-average molecular weight or (Z+1)-average molecular weight by molecular weight distribution curve.High molecular weight block, to the weighted of these Molecular weight Averages, is the trend increased successively, i.e. M n< M w< M z< M z+1.Usually, people adopt M w/ M nrepresent the molecular weight distribution of polymkeric substance, M nnear the low-molecular-weight part of polymkeric substance, namely low molecular weight part is to M naffect larger; M wthe part of high molecular in polymkeric substance, namely high molecular weight moieties is to M waffect larger.There is good over-all properties/processing characteristics, generally by the molecular weight distribution M of propene polymer to make polypropylene w/ M ncontrol within 6-20.
But the present inventor is found by repetition test, only control M w/ M nthese data, can not meet the demand that the present invention prepares high fondant-strength, also " very high-molecular weight polymer fraction " must be controlled just can reach object of the present invention quantitatively in certain scope.Particularly preferably " very high-molecular weight polymer fraction " and " low-molecular weight polymer fraction " is controlled all quantitatively in certain scope.Consider due to a small amount of " very high molecular weight block " not remarkably influenced M w, but M can be affected significantly z+1.And relatively large " low-molecular weight polymer fraction " is to M nimpact is comparatively large, therefore, in propene polymer of the present invention, ensures M z+1/ M nit is very important for being more than or equal to 70.
In the multipolymer of the propene/but-1-ene of the invention described above, preferably, the fraction content that molecular weight is greater than 5,000,000 is more than or equal to 1.0wt%, more preferably, is more than or equal to 1.5wt%.Preferably, the content that molecular weight is less than the fraction of 50,000 is more than or equal to 15.0wt%, is less than or equal to 40wt%; More preferably be more than or equal to 17.5wt%, be less than or equal to 30%.M z+1/ M nbe preferably more than or equal 80.Butene content 0.5wt% ~ 10wt% in preferred copolymer.
Preferably, the multipolymer of this propene/but-1-ene is at 230 DEG C, and MFR during load 2.16kg is 1.6-6g/10min; More preferably its MFR is 2.5-6g/10min.
In addition, the present invention, by the control to each molecular weight fraction, can obtain the polymkeric substance that dispersion index PI is 6.0-20.0, is preferably 9.0-16.0.
Inventive polymers compared with prior art, has higher melt strength, is greater than 0.8 newton, even can more than 2.2 newton; Its optical property and toughness are better than common homo-polypropylene, and fusing point is lower than common homo-polypropylene; While improving product optical property, hexane extractable (hexane extractable is proportional with xylene soluble content) is but obviously less compared with propylene/ethylene copolymer, mainly can be used for preparation medical treatment, health field foaming product, biaxially oriented film, articles thermoformed therefrom and blow-molded article.

Table 4. embodiment polymer physics performance
Data from form, comparative example 1 does not add the high external electron donor of a hydrogen response in subordinate phase reaction, its polypropylene product small molecular amount is inadequate, and the melting index of product is low, and extrusion performance (processing characteristics) is very poor and limit its use.
In addition, in actual production, the density of hydrogen (10000ppm) that in comparative example 1, subordinate phase uses reaches capacity high level substantially; Under non-critical operational condition, in reactor, hydrogen can not infinitely increase, when density of hydrogen is greater than 10000ppm, not only can cause damage to appliance arrangement, in subsequent propylene, hydrogen removes also very difficult, finally, follow and cause density of hydrogen in the first reactor uncontrollable at low level with carrying hydrogen in propylene.Therefore, propene polymer can not be made to meet the particular product performance parameters described in the present invention by controlling merely density of hydrogen.
