Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of olefin polymerization, in particular to a material mixing method and a material mixing device suitable for olefin copolymerization and an olefin copolymerization method.
Background
Gelation is a phenomenon commonly found in polymerization reactions in synthetic rubbers. The gel has a serious detrimental effect on the polymerization itself and on the quality of the product, for example, in the polymerization of ethylene-propylene rubber under Ziegler Natta catalysis, the formation and accumulation of gel, which severely reduces the deterioration of the polymer properties and makes the polymerization itself impossible and thus forcibly halted. The gel damage is especially serious for the ethylene-propylene copolymerization reaction under the catalyst composed of transition metal vanadium and organic metal aluminide compared with other homopolymerization reactions.
There is still a need to continue to reduce gels during polymerization, such as co-polymerization of ethylene-propylene-diene or ethylene-propylene-diene under catalyst systems consisting of transition metal vanadium and organometallic aluminides. The homogeneous mixing of several reaction materials is one of the key factors for achieving the above-mentioned goal.
As shown in fig. 1, the mixing manner of the materials for olefin copolymerization, especially for full liquid-phase ethylene-propylene rubber copolymerization, which is currently used as the prior art, is as follows: the first material (molecular weight regulator, for example hydrogen) is mixed into the pump outlet line of the fourth material (organic solvent, for example hexane) through the first flow meter 7 and the first back pressure valve 17, the gauge pressure of the first pressure gauge 12 should be higher than that of the fourth pressure gauge 15; the second material (the first comonomer, for example, ethylene) passes through the second flowmeter 8 and the second backpressure valve 18 and is mixed into the pump outlet pipeline of the fourth material, and the gauge pressure of the second pressure gauge 13 is higher than that of the fourth pressure gauge 15; a third material (a second comonomer, such as propylene) passes through a third flow meter 9 and a third backpressure valve 19 and is mixed into a pump outlet pipeline of a fourth material, and the gauge pressure of a third pressure gauge 14 is higher than that of a fourth pressure gauge 15; a fifth material (a third comonomer, such as diolefin) is mixed into the pump outlet pipeline of the fourth material through a fifth flow meter 11 and a fifth back pressure valve 21, and the gauge pressure of a fifth pressure gauge 16 is higher than that of a fourth pressure gauge 15; the fourth material passes through a fourth flowmeter 10 and a fourth backpressure valve 20, is mixed with the materials respectively, and then goes to a mixer 23.
The above-mentioned material mixing has a problem that the solubility of the first material (for example, hydrogen) and the fourth material (for example, hexane) is extremely low, and the two materials cannot be uniformly mixed after contacting each other. The chromatographic analysis of the material after the mixer shows that the dissolution of the material cannot be improved even after the material passes through the mixer, and the content of hydrogen in the material is high or low, so that the gel content of part of the sample in the gel sample obtained by polymerization is high.

For terpolymerization reactions also requiring the use of dienes, the fifth feed can be introduced as a diene in step 2) or step 3), so that the gel content of the resulting terpolymerized product is also lower.
According to the invention, the first and second feeds are different kinds of alpha-olefins, which may be various alpha-olefins conventionally employed in the art for the copolymerization of olefins, such as C2-C10, as specific examples of such alpha-olefins, for example: one or more of ethylene, propylene, butene, pentene, hexene, heptene, octene, nonene, decene, and the like.

Preferably, the second material is propylene, butene or octene, more preferably propylene.
According to the present invention, the fourth material may be various organic solvents for olefin copolymerization known in the art. The organic solvent may be appropriately selected according to the desired product to be synthesized. Such a solvent may be, for example, a hydrocarbon compound having 5 to 11 carbon atoms, preferably a hydrocarbon compound having 5 to 9 carbon atoms.
