preparation example Construction

[0116] After the preparation of the heterophasic polypropylene (HECO), the heterophasic polypropylene (HECO) is transferred from the second reactor system (2 nd RS) is discharged via the output port (O) and conveyed via the second transfer line (CL2) to the purge vessel (PB) containing the feeder (F).

[0117] According to the invention, said outlet (O) may preferably be of continuous or batch type.

[0118] Use a purge vessel (PB) to remove residual monomers, volatile gas components such as oligomers, and remove and / or passivate other chemical components such as residues of utilities such as electron donors, alkanes According to et al., the purge vessel (PB) is also known as steam generator, product dryer, devolatilizer, degasser, stripper or flash tank. In this case, preference is given to using nitrogen and steam.

[0119]It is known to those skilled in the art that the purge vessel (PB) has a conical shape at the bottom end. The feeder (F) is preferably located at this...

[0324] Example 1 (comparative example)

[0325] The matrix part of heterophasic polypropylene is produced in a loop-first gas phase reactor (GPR) combination. The rubber part of the polymer is produced in the second GPR and the third GPR. From a production point of view, the most important thing is to achieve a good stiffness-shock resistance balance. The requirements for the final product are as follows: MFR 2 =18-25g / 10min; XCS=30-35wt%; C 2 =16-20wt%; IV of AM 1.7-1.9dl / g; flexural modulus = 1000MPa; Charpy impact (Charpy RT) (-20) ° C = 12kg / m 2 .

Abstract

A process for the production of viscous high-impact heterophasic polypropylene (HECO) in a reactor plant sequence comprising: (i) a first reactor system; (ii) a first transfer line ( CL 1) connecting the first reactor system to a second reactor system comprising an outlet; (iii) a second delivery line connecting the outlet to a purge vessel comprising a feeder; and (iv) the delivery system , which is connected to a feeder; and the preparation of said heterophasic polypropylene (HECO) comprises the following steps in sequence: (a) producing a polypropylene matrix (M) in said first reactor system; (b) converting at least A portion of said polypropylene matrix is ​​conveyed via a first transfer line into said second reactor system; (c) producing an elastomeric copolymer in the second reactor system to obtain heterophasic polypropylene (HECO); (d ) discharging said heterophasic polypropylene (HECO) from the second reactor system via an outlet; (e) conveying said discharged heterophasic polypropylene (HECO) via a second transfer line to said containing feeder and (f) further transporting the discharged heterophasic polypropylene (HECO) from the purification vessel to the conveying system via the feeder; the produced heterophasic polypropylene (HECO) Additive (A) is provided which is fed into the heterophasic polypropylene (HECO) produced: (α) at ​​the output of the second reactor system; or (β) at At the feeder (F) of the purge vessel (PB).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a new process for the manufacture of heterophasic polypropylene (HECO). Background technique [0002] Many applications require a balance of rigidity and good impact resistance. In this case heterophasic polypropylene (HECO) is often the raw material of choice. Heterophasic polypropylene (HECO) is a polymer with a matrix phase and a dispersed phase. The matrix phase is usually a propylene homopolymer or copolymer and the dispersed phase is usually an elastomeric material such as a propylene copolymer comprising ethylene and / or other higher alpha-olefins. In some demanding applications, high impact materials are desired. Impact resistance is only achieved with heterophasic polypropylene (HECO) which contains a rather high content of elastomeric material. An undesired side effect of this high content of elastomeric material is that the heterophasic polypropylene (HECO) is sticky. Viscous materials tend to agglomerate...
