Description
SPECIFICATION
Zirconium and/or hafnium based catalyst for the polymerization of unsaturated compounds
The present invention relates to a process for the homopolymerization or the copolymerization of a-olefins, comprehensive of ethylene, characterized by the use of a novel catalytic system based on a catalyst on the basis of titanium, magnesium, zirconium or hafnium.The catalytic system resulting from the association of such a catalyst with two further components, as specified hereinunder, has a so peculiar and surprising behaviour, as to result efficacious, among others, in the preparation of homopolymers having a broad molecular weight distribution, or of copolymers having also a high environmental stress cracking resistance (E.S.C.R,), property required for particular items, such as e.g. bottles, an addition to other characteristics, such as a so broad molecular weight distribution, as to render the products particularly suitable to the manufacturing of films or of tubes, as it will be better clarified hereinunder.
The polymerization of ethylene by means of titanium-based catalysts is largely described in Patent literature. For instance, in the UK Patent No 2068389 granted on June 1984 there is disclosed a process of homopolymerization (or of copolymerization) of unsaturated compounds, in particular of ethylene and higher a-olefins, to yield homopolymers (or copolymers) having a broad distribution of molecularweights (8 < Mw/Mn c 12) suitable to be formed by the blow-moulding technique, but not particularly suitable for items such as films or tubes.Such a process uses as the catalyst, in combination with an aluminium organometallic compound, a chemical composition on the basis of titanium trihalogenide of the following formula:
Ti X3 mM'Yn q MW'p. cAl Y"3.sRs wherein Xis a halogen ion and m, q, c, M', M", Y, Y', Y", n, p, s, R have the meaning reported in the specification of the hereinabove mentioned Patent Application.
In the UK Patent No 2103226 granted on March 1985 a process is on the contrary disclosed for the polymerization and the copolymerization of a-olefins (including ethylene) also in the presence of conjugated diolefins, and in particular for the polymerization of ethylene with 1,3-butadiene, based on the use of a multi-component catalytic system, wherein one of such components contains titanium and magnesium, the polymers obtained by this process have anyway in a narrow molecular weight distribution (3 < Mw/Mn < 5).
We have now found, what is the object of the present invention, that it is possible to obtain a catalyst particularly suitable as the catalytic component in the homopolymerization of ethylene, or in the copolymerization of ethylene with o-olefins.
The catalyst being the object of the present invention is obtained by means of a method comprising the following steps: a) vaporization in vacuo of magnesium and reaction of the vapours obtained with a compound of quadrivalent titanium in the presence of a halogen atom donor compound and of a compound of zirconium and/or hafnium.
b) thermal treatment of the mixture obtained by means of the addition of an alcohol of formula ROH, wherein
R is an aliphatic linear or branched chain containing from 1 to 10 carbon atoms, possibly substituted with aromatic groups, to the previously prepared cold solution.
c) thermal treatment of the mixture obtained by means of the addition of at least one organometallic compound of aluminum of formula AlR'3.yXy, wherein R' represents a hydrocarbon radical, X represents a halogen and Y is a number equal to or comprised within the range of from 0 to 2, such that 1 < Halogenide/Al < 2, to the previously prepared solution.
The vaporization of step a is carried out under pressures comprised between or equal to 100 and 104 tory, at a temperature ranging from 300 to 600 C. The reaction of the vapours thus obtained with the titanium compound in the presence of the halogen-donor is carried out at low temperature, usually at temperatures between or equal to -80 and + 20"C. To the purpose of maintaining the reaction mixture in the fluid condition, to the cooled reactants, generally within the range of from - 100 to + 10 C, an inert hydrocarbon diluent such as e.g. n.heptane or n.hexane may be added.
The thermal treatment of step b occurs at temperatures equal to or comprised within the range of from 50 to 100 C, for times equal to or comprised within the range of from 60 ' to 180 ', under stirring.
The organometallic compound of aluminium is added in the step c as such, or as a hydrocarbon solution, the preferred compound being Al2EtCl3.
The thermal treatment of stepc is carried out at a temperature equal to, or comprised within the range of from 80 to 100"C under stirring. The following molar ratios are used: 0.3% Mg/ROH < 2
5 < Mg/Ti 20 2Mg/Zr < -= 5
1 < Mg/Hf < 10 The compound of zirconium or of hafnium, which may be also introduced in the second step, is selected among the halogenides and the alkoxides, and in particular zirconium tetraalkoxide, zirconium tetrachloride, hafnium tetrachloride is used.
The alcohol ROH may be a primary, secondary or tertiary alcohol, wherein R is an aliphatic, linear or branched chain, containing from 1 to 10 carbon atoms, possibly substituted with aromatic groups, but preferably butyl alcohol, amyl alcohol, isoamyl alcohol, benzyl alcohol is used.
As the halogen donor, the organic halogenides can be used, in particular those of formula CmH2m+2-xXxf wherein X = Cl, Br, m represents a number equal to or comprised within the range of from 1 to 18 andx is a number equal to or comprised within the range of from 1 to 4, and in this case they may also constitute the said diluent medium, or inorganic halogenides can be used of elements in a high valence state, but capable of existing in at least two oxidation states, such as Snow4, SbCI5, POOl3, Viol4.
As for the titanium compound, this can be selected within a broad range of products such as, e.g.
trihalogenhides and tetrahalogenides of titanium, titanium tetraalcoxides and halogeno-alkoxides, titanium tetrabenzyl and halogeno-benzyl derivatives, titanium tetraallyl and halogeno allyls, titanium amides and amido-halogenides, chelates of titanium, and so on. Their use resulted to be particularly efficacious, and it is a second object of the present invention, as components of catalytic systems in the homolymerization of ethylene or in the copolymerization of ethylene with a-olefins.
We have indeed found that it is possible to prepare polymers or copolymers of ethylene by causing the polymerization to occur in the presence of a system constituted by a derivative of aluminum of formula AlRpX3.p, with R being a hydrocarbon residue, X halogen and p equal to or comprised within the range of from 1 to 3, and by a catalyst based on zirconium or hafnium as hereinabove defined.
The a-olefins to be copolymerized with ethylene are preferably butene-1, propene, hexene-1, octene-1.
Said composition can be directly used in the polymerization, as obtained from the hereinabove disclosed preparation method, without any filtration or separation. The polymerization is carried out in its turn in the presence of a hydrocarbon solvent which may of course be the same as the diluent used for the preparation of titanium derivative, at temperatures ranging from 20 to 200 C, and under pressures ranging from 1 to 60 atmospheres.
Alternatively, the polymerization may be accomplished by directly delivering the momomer or the monomers in the gaseous state, on the catalytic system. Polymers and copolymers of ethylene are obtained with high yields, with broad molecular weight distribution, as it appears from the values of Mw/Mn obtained by gel permeation chromatography (G.P.C.) comprised within the range of from 12 to 20.
Such polymers are particulary suitable to the extrusion and blow-moulding technology, in particular for film production.
Thanks to their high environmental stress cracking resistance, the products are particularly suitable for some applications such as containers for detergents and large containers.
