Problems solved by technology

However, the preparation of the above-mentioned catalysts is complicated and not practical, mainly due to the use of large amounts of aluminoxane; moreover, butadiene must be added to the pre-prepared catalyst to prepare the pre-polymerized catalyst, resulting in The association of the polar end groups of the β forms a very viscous solution, so it is very difficult to feed the above prefabricated catalyst from the preparation vessel into the polymerization reactor in industrial practice

[0098] It has been shown that the use of different types of neodymium tertiary carboxylates leads to a gradual improvement in the rate of polymerization in a manner inversely proportional to the content of proton-donating species. Specifically and similarly to that observed in batch reactors, the decrease in water content leads to a gradual decrease in the Mw / Mn index.

[0099] However, unlike the batch tests performed above, for a particularly clean catalyst, at the same Mooney value, a gradual decrease in the viscosity in styrene due to the degree of branching can be observed, via g M A gradual change in the index value is shown (control polymers F, G, H, I, L).

[0100] The degree of branching increases with the increase of synthesis temperature.
