Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of propylene polymerization, and in particular to an organic carrier-supported polypropylene catalyst system and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Since the discovery of ZN catalyst in the 1950s, with the innovation of polyolefin production technology and catalysts, the production and demand of polyolefins have continued to grow. Polypropylene is one of the fastest-growing synthetic resins, and its production and consumption will continue to grow.
[0003] Currently, industrial polypropylene catalysts are primarily ZN-type catalysts and metallocene catalysts, primarily used to produce highly isotactic polypropylene. In addition, metallocene and post-metallocene catalysts are used to produce small amounts of syndiotactic polypropylene, atactic polypropylene, and propylene-based elastomers. For industrial polypropylene production equipment, such as those using slurry, bulk, or gas-phase polymerization processes, the catalyst must be loaded to control the morphology of the resulting polymer and avoid problems such as reactor agglomeration and blockage.
[0004] Existing industrial catalysts primarily utilize inorganic supports for ZN catalysts and metallocene catalysts. These supports primarily include silica, magnesium chloride, magnesium ethoxide, and molecular sieves. For example, MgCl2-supported polypropylene catalysts typically include the following components: MgCl2 / TiCl4 / internal electron donor (ID) / silane-based external electron donor (ED). Common internal electron donors include phthalates such as diisobutyl phthalate (DIBP) and di-n-butyl phthalate (DNBP), phenolic esters, succinates, and diether-based internal electron donors. Inorganic support-supported polypropylene catalysts typically exhibit high polymerization activity, better control of polymer morphology, and high bulk density. However, inorganic supports often introduce additional impurities (beyond the Mg and Ti catalyst components), making the development of highly clean polypropylene products difficult.
[0005] Unlike reported inorganic supports, organic polymer supports themselves do not introduce impurities that would affect polymer performance. Furthermore, organic supports have controllable pore structures, high specific surface areas, stable thermal properties, and are easily functionalized. Through support design and functionalization, high-performance or distinctive polyolefin catalysts can be prepared. There are public reports on porous organic supports supporting ZN catalysts, typically using organic supports containing functional groups such as carboxylic acid, hydroxyl, cyano, and amino groups. For example, U.S. Patent No. 4,623,707 uses an organic support prepared from a chloromethylated styrene monomer to prepare a ZN catalyst. For example, in “Porous polyethylene spheres with nanofiber structure from Ziegler-Natta catalyst supported on porous polymer particles” (2011; Vol. 52, pp. 602-605), a cyano-functionalized organic support was used to prepare a POP support-supported ZN polyethylene catalyst. In J. Polym. Res., "Ethylene polymerization on polymer supported Ziegler-Natta catalyst" (2012; 19: 9892, pp. 1-13), a ZN polyethylene catalyst was prepared using a POP support functionalized with methyl methacrylate. In Catalyst Letters, "Immobilization of Titanium Tetrachloride on Mixed Support of MgCl2 xEB / Poly(methyl acrylate-co-1-octene): Catalyst for Synthesis of Broad MWD Polyethylene" (2009; 132; 87-93), a ZN catalyst was prepared using a copolymer of methacrylic acid and 1-octene as a support for the preparation of polyethylene with a broad molecular weight distribution. In addition, metallocene catalysts prepared using organic supports, such as those prepared using an organic support containing carboxylate groups in US Pat. No. 5,587,439, reported that these organic polymer-supported ZN catalysts are generally suitable for polyethylene catalysts, with few reports of their use in propylene polymerization. This is mainly because the ZN catalyst system supported by the above organic carrier has low propylene polymerization activity. Even after the internal electron donor ID is used to regulate the regularity of the polypropylene molecular chain, although its isotacticity and propylene polymerization activity are improved, it cannot meet the requirements of commercial application.
[0006] Therefore, there is a need in the art to further study organic-supported catalysts for propylene polymerization. Summary of the Invention

[0020] Beneficial effects of the present invention:
[0021] The ZN polypropylene catalyst supported on a porous organic polymer carrier of the present invention has a pore structure that can be adjusted by the carrier's pore structure. By designing functional monomers, the catalyst regulates the chemical environment of the titanium active center, forming a solid-phase component of an organic-support-supported POP-SO3H / RMgX / TiCl4 / ID (internal electron donor) polypropylene catalyst. The synergistic effect between the sulfonic acid groups on the carrier and the internal electron donor ID enhances the stereospecificity of the catalyst's Ti active center, thereby resulting in a wider molecular weight distribution for the resulting polypropylene. During propylene polymerization, the ZN-type catalyst solid-phase component requires the addition of an external electron donor and a co-catalyst. The catalyst exhibits excellent polymerization activity and a high polymer isotacticity, exceeding 98%. TREF fractionation results indicate that the resulting homopolymerized polypropylene has a higher elution temperature (i.e., this segment has higher chain regularity), exceeding 123°C (compared to the elution temperature of other commercial homopolymerized PP, which is generally around 122°C). Furthermore, the product exhibits a broad molecular weight distribution, ranging from 8 to 15. Conventional ZN-type polypropylene catalysts typically struggle to produce polypropylene with both high chain regularity and a broad molecular weight distribution. The organic carrier-supported ZN polypropylene catalyst has good industrial prospects, and the catalyst system has advantages in developing homopolymer products with high rigidity and toughness balance.

[0024] The following is a detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention. These embodiments are implemented based on the technical solutions of the present invention, and detailed implementation methods and processes are given. However, the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments. The experimental methods for which specific conditions are not specified in the following embodiments are generally based on conventional conditions.
[0025] The present invention provides an organic carrier-supported polypropylene catalyst system, comprising a solid phase component, a co-catalyst and an external electron donor, wherein the solid phase component comprises a porous organic polymer carrier, a magnesium compound, a titanium compound and an internal electron donor, and the porous organic polymer carrier is a copolymer comprising divinylbenzene and a sulfonic acid group-containing functional monomer.
[0026] The present invention utilizes the synergistic effect of sulfonic acid functional monomers and an internal electron donor to impart excellent stereospecificity to the catalyst and a broad molecular weight distribution to the resulting polymer chains. Experimental results show that when the catalyst system (POP-SO3...MgX / TiCl4 solid catalyst component) is used to catalyze propylene polymerization without the internal electron donor, the resulting polypropylene exhibits a broad molecular weight distribution and a certain degree of stereospecificity. However, when the internal electron donor is added, the synergistic effect of the sulfonic acid functional monomers and the internal electron donor significantly enhances the catalyst's polymerization activity and the stereospecificity of the active centers, while also maintaining a relatively broad molecular weight distribution for the resulting polypropylene product.
[0027] However, when the catalyst is used for propylene polymerization, the cocatalyst will complex with the internal electron donor, causing the Ti atoms and the internal electron donor to lose stability and reoccupy the random active sites complexed by the internal electron donor, resulting in a decrease in the catalyst's directional ability. The present invention adds an external electron donor to preferentially bind the external electron donor to the cocatalyst, preventing the internal electron donor from falling off, reducing the amount of internal electron donor removed by the cocatalyst, ensuring the stability of the stereoactive centers in the catalyst, and thus making the prepared polymer have higher isotacticity.
[0028] The catalyst system of the present invention is a ZN catalyst. The porous organic polymer support is a copolymer obtained by copolymerizing divinylbenzene and a sulfonic acid functional monomer. In one embodiment, the sulfonic acid functional monomer has the formula R2HC=C(R3)R1SO2OH, R2HC=C(R3)R1SO3H, or R2HC=C(R3)R1SO2OM.

The R1 and R2 groups may also contain other substituents such as chlorine, bromine, fluorine, iodine, an alkyl group, a phenyl group, or a naphthyl group. R3 is an H atom, an alkyl group containing 1-6 carbon atoms in the main chain, or a phenyl group. M is a metal. In one embodiment, M is an alkali metal or an alkaline earth metal; in another embodiment, M is Na, Mg, or Al.
[0029] When the number of carbon atoms in R1 is 0 and R3 is an H atom, the chemical formula of the functional monomer is R2HC=CHSO2OH; when R1 is a phenylene group and R3 is an H atom, the chemical formula of the functional monomer is R2HC=CH-PhSO3H; when R2 is a phenyl group, the number of carbon atoms in R1 is 0 and R3 is an H atom, the chemical formula of the functional monomer is PhHC=CHSO3H; when the number of carbon atoms in R1 and R2 is 0 and R3 is an H atom, the chemical formula of the functional monomer is H2C=CHSO3H. In addition, the functional monomer can also be selected from R2HC=C(R3)R1SO2OH metal salts and their hydrates, such as sodium salts and their hydrates, Mg, Al salts, etc. and their hydrates, such as R2HC=CHR1SO2ONa.xH2O.

[0035] In one embodiment, the internal electron donor ID of the present invention is a diester, diphenol ester, glycol ester, succinate, or diether internal electron donor. The internal electron donor includes, but is not limited to, the following internal electron donors, such as diisobutyl phthalate (DIBP), di-n-butyl phthalate (DNBP), 9,9-dimethoxyfluorene, 2,3-diisobutyl diisopropylsuccinate, 3-methyl-5-tert-butyl-1,2-benzenediol dibenzoate, 2-isopropyl-2-isopentyl-1,3-propanediol dibenzyl ester (IAIPPDB), 2-isopropyl-2-isopentyl-1,3-propanedimethyl ether (IAIPDMP), and the like.
[0036] In one embodiment, the mass of the porous organic polymer support in the solid phase component is 60 to 85 parts, the mass of the magnesium compound in the solid phase component calculated as magnesium element is 1 to 8 parts, the mass of the titanium compound in the solid phase component calculated as titanium element is 1 to 8 parts, and the mass of the internal electron donor in the solid phase component is 1 to 10 parts.
[0037] In one embodiment, the external electron donor is a silane compound, that is, a silane-type external electron donor, and the silane-type external electron donor includes but is not limited to cyclohexylmethyldimethylsilane (C external donor), dicyclopentenyldimethoxysilane (D external donor), diisopropyldimethoxysilane (P external donor), diisobutyldimethoxysilane (B external donor), and tetraethoxysilane (TEOS).

The alkyl aluminum is calculated as aluminum, and the titanium compound is calculated as titanium. The molar ratio of the amount of the alkyl aluminum added to the amount of the titanium compound used is 10-500.
[0040] The present invention also provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned organic carrier-supported polypropylene catalyst system, wherein the method for preparing the solid phase component of the catalyst comprises:
[0041] The porous organic polymer carrier and the magnesium compound are reacted in an inert solvent at a reaction temperature of 0°C to 50°C and a reaction time of 15 to 120 minutes. The unreacted magnesium compound is then filtered and added to an organic solvent containing a titanium compound to react at a reaction temperature of 0°C to 80°C and a reaction time of 15 to 180 minutes. An internal electron donor is then added and the reaction is carried out at 20-120°C to obtain a solid phase component.
[0042] Among them, a porous organic polymer support (taking POP-SO3H as an example) is treated with a magnesium-containing compound to obtain POP-SO3...MgX, and then a titanium compound is added to react to obtain POP-SO3...MgX / TiCl4, and then an internal electron donor ID is added to obtain a ZN-type POP-SO3...MgX / TiCl4 / ID polypropylene catalyst solid phase component.
[0043] The cocatalyst and external electron donor are added to the reaction system along with the solid phase components when the catalyst system is used for propylene polymerization, ultimately forming a POP-type polypropylene catalyst system. The cocatalyst can also serve as an impurity remover for the polymerization reaction system, removing trace amounts of water from the system.
[0044] In one embodiment, the preparation method of the solid phase component of the catalyst of the present invention is as follows: after the porous organic polymer support containing the sulfonic acid functional monomer is dried, it is added to an inert solvent under anhydrous and oxygen-free operating conditions, and then a magnesium compound is added, and the reaction is carried out at 0°C to 50°C for 15 to 120 minutes. After the reaction is completed, the unreacted magnesium compound is filtered, and then an inert solvent and a titanium compound are added, the temperature is adjusted to 0°C to 80°C, and the reaction is carried out for 15 to 180 minutes. Then, an internal electron donor is added at 20-120°C, and the reaction is carried out for 15 to 180 minutes. The product is then washed with an inert solvent to obtain the solid phase component of the catalyst.
[0045] The porous organic polymer support of the present invention is typically prepared using free radical polymerization, and can be prepared using processes such as dispersion polymerization, suspension polymerization, and emulsion polymerization. The functional monomer content in the support is determined by the amount of divinylbenzene and the sulfonic acid group-containing functional monomer added, resulting in a sulfonic acid group-functionalized organic support. For example, a dispersion polymerization process can be used to prepare a narrowly dispersed, highly fluid sulfonic acid-functionalized organic support, designated POP-SO3H.
[0046] In one embodiment, the porous organic polymer support of the present invention is prepared by free radical copolymerization of divinylbenzene as a base monomer with a sulfonic acid functional monomer using a dispersion polymerization or suspension polymerization process. The porous organic polymer support of the present invention can be represented by POP-SO3H or POP-SO3M, where M represents a metal.
[0047] More specifically, the method for preparing the porous organic polymer support of the present invention comprises adding divinylbenzene and a sulfonic acid group-containing functional monomer to a dispersing solvent, followed by adding a stabilizer and an initiator. After stirring and dispersing the mixture uniformly, the mixture is reacted at 50-80°C for 5-12 hours, followed by washing, filtering, and drying to produce the porous organic polymer support containing sulfonic acid groups. If the functional monomer used is a sulfonic acid group-containing sulfonate or a hydrate thereof, the prepared porous organic polymer support is then reacted with an acid, such as hydrochloric acid or dilute sulfuric acid, at 20-80°C for 0.2-2 hours, washed once or twice, and filtered and dried to produce the POP-SO3H support.
[0048] In one embodiment, the dispersing solvent can be a lower alcohol containing 1-4 carbon atoms or an alcohol / water mixed solvent system, with a mass ratio of alcohol to water of 5-15:1. The dispersing solvent can be methanol, ethanol, propanol, isopropanol, 1-butanol, isobutanol, etc. Unless otherwise specified, all ratios are by mass. A small amount of additional solvents, such as ethyl acetate, methyl formate, tetrahydrofuran, etc., can be added to the solvent system to adjust the solubility parameter of the solvent system, thereby controlling the pore structure and morphology of the prepared carrier. The mass ratio of the total monomer addition (divinylbenzene and sulfonic acid functional monomer) to the dispersing solvent is 1:5-20, ensuring uniform dispersion of the system. The mass ratio of the sulfonic acid functional monomer to divinylbenzene is 0.2-2:1. The stabilizer is polyvinyl alcohol or a polypropylene oxide-polyethylene oxide copolymer. The weight-average molecular weight of the stabilizer is controlled between 6,000 and 100,000, and the ratio of the stabilizer addition to the total monomer addition is 0.5-3:100. The initiator is a common free radical initiator, including azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) or dibenzoyl peroxide (BPO). The ratio of the initiator to the total amount of monomer added is 0.5-3:100. The polymer obtained by the reaction can be washed with a dispersing solvent to remove impurities.
[0049] The monomers used in the preparation of the porous organic polymer carrier of the present invention are divinylbenzene (DVB) and sulfonic acid functional monomers (such as sodium p-styrenesulfonate, sodium vinylsulfonate, propylene sulfonic acid, sodium propylenesulfonate, or its hydrate). Commercially available monomers can be used. For example, divinylbenzene can be a commercial monomer containing 55% or 80% DVB by weight. Divinylbenzene requires pretreatment before use to remove the polymerization inhibitor. Numerous methods are available in the art for removing polymerization inhibitors, such as washing with sodium hydroxide solution and distilled water. Sulfonic acid functional monomers, such as sodium vinylbenzenesulfonate hydrate and sodium propylenesulfonate hydrate, are solid particles and can be used directly.
[0050] In one embodiment, the magnesium compound is added in an amount of 1 to 30 mmol per gram of the porous organic polymer support, preferably 3 to 20 mmol per gram of the porous organic polymer support, calculated as magnesium. In the solid phase component preparation process of the present invention, an excess of Ti compound is usually added to load the catalyst. In one embodiment, the titanium compound is added in an amount of 5 to 200 mmol per gram of the porous organic polymer support, preferably 50-150 mmol per gram of the porous organic polymer support, calculated as titanium. The ratio of the internal electron donor to the porous organic polymer support is 0.02-0.3 g per gram of the porous organic polymer support.
[0051] In one embodiment, the specific surface area of the porous organic polymer carrier of the present invention is measured by using the BET nitrogen adsorption method using Nova2000e. Preferably, the specific surface area of the carrier is greater than 100 m 2 / g, more preferably 100-600m 2 / g; pore volume is greater than or equal to 0.2ml / g.
[0052] The porous organic polymer-supported ZN polypropylene catalyst system of the present invention is suitable for gas-phase, bulk or slurry polymerization reactions, and the suitable reaction conditions are a temperature of 30 to 80°C and a pressure of 0.1 to 2.0 MPa. Suitable solvents for slurry polymerization are alkanes containing 5 to 10 carbon atoms, and the preferred solvent is hexane. In bulk polymerization, the polymerization pressure is generally 2.8 to 4.0 MPa, and the polymerization temperature is generally 68 to 72°C. Hydrogen is usually used during the polymerization process to adjust the polymer molecular weight or polymer melt index. The porous organic polymer-supported ZN polypropylene catalyst system of the present invention can be used for propylene homopolymerization and copolymerization of propylene with ethylene and other α-olefins. The α-olefins can be butene, isobutylene, pentene, hexene, octene, 4-methyl-1-pentene, etc.
[0053] The catalyst system of the present invention, starting from the carrier, selects a functional monomer containing a sulfonic acid group, R2HC=C(R3)R1SO2OH, through the design and optimization of functional monomers, thereby preparing a porous organic polymer POP-SO3H carrier suitable for polypropylene catalysts. The carrier is then modified to load an active component containing a magnesium / titanium compound onto the carrier, and an internal electron donor is further loaded onto the catalyst, thereby preparing a porous organic polymer (POP) carrier-supported ZN-type polypropylene catalyst system, POP-SO3H / RMgX / TiCl4 / ID (internal electron donor) solid phase component. The synergistic effect of the sulfonic acid groups on the carrier and the internal electron donor ID enhances the stereospecificity of the catalyst and allows the production of polypropylene with a broad molecular weight distribution. During propylene polymerization, the catalyst solid phase component requires the addition of an external electron donor and a cocatalyst, resulting in a catalyst with good polymerization activity and a high polymer isotacticity of over 98%. TREF fractionation results indicate that the homopolymerized polypropylene has a higher chain regularity. Furthermore, the product has a broad molecular weight distribution, ranging from 8 to 15.
[0054] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described in detail below through specific examples. Unless otherwise specified, the percentages "%" below are all weight percentages.
[0055] The molecular weight and distribution of the polypropylene prepared by propylene polymerization in the present invention are obtained by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) of Polymer Char. The isotacticity of the polymer is obtained by n-heptane extraction test results. In addition, the regularity and distribution of the polymer molecular chains are evaluated by temperature rise elution fractionation (TREF) test of Polymer Char. The main fractions are room temperature soluble part and high temperature elution part. For homopolypropylene, the room temperature soluble part is atactic polypropylene. As the elution temperature increases, the chain regularity of the eluted polypropylene molecular chains increases.

[0148] Table 2 Propylene polymerization results of catalysts of Examples 48-63
[0149]
[0150]
[0151] As shown in Table 3, the porous organic polymer-supported ZN polypropylene catalyst POP-SO3H / RMgX / TiCl4 / ID (internal electron donor) exhibits excellent polymerization activity, with homopolymerization activity exceeding 15,000 gPP / gcat.h. While lower than that of catalysts supported on conventional inorganic MgCl2 supports, its activity is significantly improved over existing organic polymer supports, meeting the standards of existing industrial catalysts. Importantly, the synergistic effect of the sulfonic acid groups on the support and the internal electron donor ID gives the Ti active centers in the prepared catalyst enhanced stereospecificity, resulting in a wider molecular weight distribution for the resulting polypropylene. Experiments have shown that, when the internal electron donor-free catalyst POP-SO3H / RMgX / TiCl4 is used, the polymer produced has a very broad molecular weight distribution, exceeding 22 (Comparative Example 62). The addition of an internal electron donor further enhances the stereospecificity of the catalyst, achieving a polymer isotacticity exceeding 98%. TREF fractionation results indicate that the homopolypropylene exhibits a higher elution temperature (i.e., the chain segments exhibit higher chain regularity), exceeding 123°C (other commercial homopolypropylene typically exhibit elution temperatures around 122°C). Furthermore, the catalyst maintains a broad molecular weight distribution, ranging from 8 to 15. Conventional ZN-type polypropylene catalysts generally have difficulty producing polypropylene with both high chain regularity and a wide molecular weight distribution. Even with the addition of a compounded internal electron donor, i.e., two internal electron donors (compared to Example 22), Example 21 exhibits a relatively high polymer isotacticity but a relatively narrow molecular weight distribution. In Example 22, although the polymer achieves a relatively wide molecular weight distribution, the chain regularity of the highly isotactic molecular chains in its TREF fractionation (high-temperature elution peak) is still lower than that of the catalyst of the present invention. Generally speaking, internal electron donors determine polymer stereoregularity (molecular chain regularity, of which isotacticity is a part), molecular weight distribution, hydrogen sensitivity, polymerization activity, and the like, and are a very important component of polypropylene catalysts. Comparative Example 22 uses two internal electron donors, diphenol esters and fluorene diethers (compared to Example 21, it can be seen that fluorene diethers, as internal electron donors, have relatively high isotacticity but a relatively narrow molecular weight distribution), indicating that compounded internal electron donors are required to achieve a wide molecular weight distribution and high chain regularity. Example 14 only needs to use the most commonly used DIBP internal electron donor to achieve the effect of Comparative Example 22. If a diphenol ester internal electron donor is used, as in Example 16, the polymer can achieve ultra-high chain tacticity and a wide molecular weight distribution using the same diphenol ester internal electron donor.
[0152] Compared with existing catalysts, the POP-SO3H / RMgX / TiCl4 / ID catalyst disclosed in the present invention has a simple preparation method. Its active center has both a wide molecular weight distribution and high stereospecificity, giving it good industrial prospects. In particular, this catalyst system has advantages in developing homopolymer products with high rigidity and toughness balance.
[0153] Figure 1 is the temperature rise elution fractionation (Tref) curve of the polypropylene prepared in the embodiment of the present invention, further, Figure 1 The following are the temperature rise elution fractionation (Tref) curves for the polypropylene prepared in Example 16, Comparative Example 22, and Comparative Example 61. These curves typically have two main peaks: one is the room-temperature soluble peak, representing the atactic polypropylene component; the other is the high-temperature elution peak. Higher elution temperatures indicate more regular polypropylene chains, fewer defects, and stronger crystallization ability. Larger peak areas indicate higher content of these components. As can be seen from the curves, the polypropylene represented by the TREF fractionation curve in Example 16 has the lowest atactic content, while its high-temperature elution peak has the highest elution temperature, indicating the highest regularity of these subchains.
[0154] Figure 2 The GPC molecular weight and distribution curve of the polypropylene prepared in the embodiment of the present invention are shown in FIG. Figure 2 The following are GPC molecular weight and distribution curves for the polypropylenes prepared in Example 16, Comparative Example 21, Comparative Example 22, and Comparative Example 61. In these curves, Comparative Example 61 (without the addition of an internal electron donor) and Example 16 both exhibit broad molecular weight distributions. While the molecular weight distribution of Comparative Example 22 is broadened by the addition of a compounded internal electron donor, its polymer molecular chain regularity (TREF curve) is lower than that of Example 16. Comparative Example 21 exhibits a narrower molecular weight distribution.
[0155] Furthermore, the ZN-type polypropylene catalyst prepared by this invention can also be used for the copolymerization of propylene and ethylene to produce copolymerized polypropylene products. The catalyst has good copolymerization ability. When ethylene monomer is added, the catalyst activity is significantly increased, and the polymer molecular weight distribution is relatively broad.
