ethylene was homopolymerized over ziegler-natta catalyst and the homopolymerization was modeled using moment equations. mechanism was modeled according to five different reaction centers of catalyst. for each center, there are different reaction rate coefficients; therefore the final product of each center would be expected to be different. modeling results showed good conformity to the experim...

in the present work, a titanium-based ziegler-natta catalyst was employed to synthesize ultra molecular weight polyethylene in a slurry medium. the effect of different parameters such as ethylene pressure, temperature, catalyst composition, and hydrogen pressure was studied. as the results indicate, increasing either [al]/[ti] ratio or temperature causes polymerization rate to go through a maxi...

copolymerization of ethylene and propylene was investigated using a 4th generation phthalate ziegler-natta catalyst in normal hexane in a buchi reactor. the effects of different mole fractions of [al]/[ti], [si]/[al] and various amounts of hydrogen on productivity and weight percent of ethylene on the product, were studied. in the copolymerization reactions, tri-isobutyl aluminum (tibal) was us...

Understanding the kinetics of olefin polymerization with Ziegler-Natta and related catalysts means identifying the main kinetic parameters such as k(p) and concentration of active sites. The high-pressure quenched-flow technique could be an absolute method for counting active sites and for activation studies of molecular catalysts. A kinetic study of metallocene catalysts and a phenoxy-imine ti...

In propylene (C3) polymerization with Ziegler-Natta catalyst, not only internal donor but also external is very important to make isotactic polypropylene (PP) higher yield. Most propylene-based polymers have been commercially produced catalysts combined dialkyl-dialkoxy silane compounds (R2Si(OR)2) such as C-donor, P-donor, and D-donor donors. this paper, we will introduce the performance amino...

in the current work, ethylene polymerization was investigated from a mathematical modeling point of view. the initiation (activation), propagation, termination, and deactivation reactions were taken into account and the relevant equations used in the modeling were obtained from the elementary reactions. some assumptions including neglecting the transfer and deactivation reactions were considere...
