Chap 12. Zieglar-Natta Catalyst

- Before Z-N Catalyst invention, PP composites were only atactic form - After that, isotactic PP composites of extraordinary MW(>106) is synthesized

LDPE = HPPE HDPE PP

This has less hardness, stiffness and strength compared to HDPE, but better ductility, Free radical

10 billion lb/yr

Use chromium compounds.

Zieglar-Natta process is recent application.

A few number of branches

AlR3, AlHR2

Natta

4 billion lb/yr

Characteristic conditions for PP

PP and solid catalysts are put together at 50 to 90 below 5atm.℃ ℃After stopping of reaction, it is washed with H2O or ROH to remove the catalysts.MW is on the control of chain transfer agent

E.g.) CO2, O2, H2, H2O, …
