Dec 18, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/739178
Inventors:
Natarajan Muruganandam - Belle Mead NJ, 08502

US Patent:
6703340, Mar 9, 2004
Filed:
Oct 2, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/263569
Inventors:
Xinmin Yang - Franklin Park NJ
Michael D. Awe - Langhorne PA
Natarajan Anand Muruganandam - Belle Mead NJ
Assignee:
Univation Technologies, LLC - Houston TX
International Classification:
B01J 3100
US Classification:
502152, 502103, 502116, 502132, 526160, 526943, 526131, 526130, 5261351
Abstract:
A process for the production of an ionic transition metal catalyst in supported form than is highly productive under gas phase olefin polymerization conditions. In the process a an aluminum alkyl is added to a suitable solvent after which a neutral metallocene compound is added to the solution under stirring in a quantity that provides for a ratio of Al to transition metal of at least 25:1. To this metallocene-aluminum alkyl solution is next added an ionic compound the anionic portion of which is a non-coordinating anion under stirring until all materials are dissolve. The ionic compound is added in a quantity that provides for a ratio of NCA to transition metal of at least 1:1. Next the support particles are added to the solution and thereafter the solution is heated to at least 40Â C. and held at this elevated temperature for at least 0. 5 hour. Thereafter the solvent is removed and the supported catalyst is dried under vacuum.

Abstract:
A method for preparing a spray dried catalyst and a low viscosity, low foam spray dried catalyst system for olefin polymerization are provided. In one aspect, the method includes preparing a catalyst system including one or more components selected from metallocenes, non-metallocenes, and activators, adding mineral oil to the catalyst system to form a slurry, and adding one or more liquid alkanes having three or more carbon atoms to the slurry in an amount sufficient to reduce foaming and viscosity of the slurry. In one aspect, the catalyst system includes one or more catalysts selected from metallocenes, non-metallocenes, and a combination thereof, wherein the catalyst system is spray dried. The system further includes mineral oil to form a slurry including a catalyst system, and one or more liquid alkanes having three or more carbon atoms in an amount sufficient to reduce foaming and viscosity of the slurry.
