Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of olefin catalytic polymerization, specifically to a silane compound, a catalyst composition, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Solid catalysts, with magnesium, titanium, halogens, and electron donors as basic components, can be used in the polymerization of ethylene or propylene. When used in propylene polymerization, both an alkylaluminum co-catalyst and an external electron donor component must be added simultaneously. Without an external electron donor, most catalysts produce polymers with low isotacticity, typically below 90%, which is detrimental to industrial production and polymer applications. Therefore, the addition of an external electron donor plays a crucial role in most propylene polymerization catalysts.

[0003] Patent CN111978346A uses an aromatic amino-siloxane compound as an external electron donor, which improves the hydrogen sensitivity of the catalyst and is used to prepare high-flow polypropylene materials. However, the isotacticity of the prepared polypropylene is relatively low. Patent CN1583805B discloses a new type of siloxane compound as an external electron donor component in olefin polymerization catalysts. When using this external electron donor for propylene polymerization, the hydrogen sensitivity is improved, but the improvement is small. Patent CN109535287A selects siloxane, glycerol fatty acid esters containing polar groups, and polyglycerol fatty acid esters as external electron donor components, which solves the problem of activity shift caused by ethers in catalytic polymerization. It is suitable for propylene polymerization in various processes. However, this external electron donor contains three compounds, making the process technology complex and costly.
