Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a titanium-containing solid catalyst component and an olefin polymerization catalyst, belonging to the field of olefin polymerization. Background Technology

[0002] As the demand for polyolefins increases, the requirements for olefin polymerization catalysts are also becoming more stringent. Currently, the most widely used catalyst is the Ziegler-Natta catalyst supported on magnesium chloride. Chinese patents CN85100997A and CN1453298A disclose catalyst preparation methods that generally consist of a solid catalyst component composed of magnesium, titanium, halogens, and electron-donating organic compounds. However, meeting various performance requirements, such as high stereoregularity, high catalyst activity, and low ash content, makes the preparation of such a catalyst component very difficult.

[0003] Isotactic polybutene-1 possesses excellent mechanical properties, outstanding creep resistance, low-temperature fluidity, and resistance to environmental stress cracking, as well as abrasion resistance, flexibility, and high filler capacity. Compared to other polyolefins, polybutene-1 exhibits the best resistance to stress cracking, and its creep resistance is significantly higher than that of polyethylene or polypropylene. Particularly under stress not exceeding the yield point, its outstanding creep resistance remains unchanged up to 110°C. Furthermore, isotactic polybutene-1 maintains excellent mechanical properties under heated conditions; its heat resistance allows for long-term use at 80–90°C, with an upper limit of 110°C for use in hot water. Its abrasion resistance is comparable to that of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, thus giving it a unique advantage in hot water pipe applications.

[0004] However, due to limitations in catalyst level and polymerization process, polybutene-1 has always had low polymerization activity and insufficient stereoregularity, often requiring deashing or removal of atactic substances. Furthermore, the complex polymerization process has resulted in excessively high prices for polybutene-1 polymer products, limiting its widespread application and development.

[0005] Methods for preparing isotactic polybutene-1 generally include gas-phase methods and liquid-phase methods using hydrocarbons or butene-1 monomers as solvents. In liquid-phase polymerization, currently disclosed processes typically use butene-1 monomer itself as the solvent or reaction medium to address the separation of the product after polymerization. Polymerization is carried out under the combined action of the main catalyst titanium trichloride and the co-catalyst diethylaluminum chloride (DEAC). In some cases, a mixture of diethylaluminum iodide and DEAC is also used, as disclosed in European Patent EP187034. However, this process system has low polymerization activity, and the stereoregularity of the resulting polybutene-1 is not high enough, often requiring deashing or removal of atactic compounds. The post-polymerization processing is complex, and the properties of the resulting polymer are not ideal. The polybutene-1 prepared using patent US6306996 has improved isotacticity to 95% and activity to 14000 g / gcat.4h. However, due to the high ash content of the obtained polymer, the isotacticity and polymerization activity are not ideal, and the performance of the obtained polymer is not satisfactory.

[0057] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the embodiments, but the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.

[0058] It should be noted that the evaluation of the alkoxymagnesium particles and polyolefins prepared in the embodiments of the present invention was carried out using the following methods:

[0059] 1. The particle size and particle size distribution of alkoxy magnesium compounds and catalysts were measured using the Malvern Mastersizer™ 2000 hexane dispersant laser diffraction method, where SPAN = (D90-D10) / D50.

[0060] 2. The content of internal electron donors in the olefin polymerization catalyst components was determined by gas chromatography.

[0061] 3. The activity of the polymer is calculated by dividing the weight of the final polymer by the weight of the initially added catalyst components.

[0062] 4. The isotactic index (II) of polypropylene is tested as follows: 2 grams of dry polymer sample is placed in an extractor and extracted with boiling heptane for 6 hours. The residue is then dried to constant weight, and the isotacticity is calculated using the following formula:

[0063] Isotacticity II = Mass of extracted polymer / 2 × 100%.

[0064] 5. The isotactic index (II) of polybutene-1 is tested as follows: 3 grams of the sample is dried in a vacuum oven at 75±5℃ for 60 minutes. The polybutene-1 sample is then moistened with ether in an extractor and extracted with ether by boiling for 12 hours. The residue is then dried to constant weight, and the isotacticity is calculated using the following formula:

[0065] Isotacticity II = mass of polybutene-1 after extraction / 3 × 100%.

[0066] 6. Propylene Polymerization: In a 5-liter high-pressure reactor, nitrogen gas was used to purge at 70°C for 1 hour. Then, at room temperature, 5 mL of a triethylaluminum solution in hexane (0.5 mmol / mL), 1 mL of a cyclohexylmethyldimethoxysilane (CHMMS) solution in hexane (0.10 mmol / mL), 10 mL of anhydrous hexane, and 10 mg of solid catalyst were introduced into the nitrogen gas stream. The high-pressure reactor was closed, and 1.0 L (under standard conditions) of hydrogen and 2.0 L of liquid propylene were introduced. The temperature was raised to 70°C within 10 minutes with stirring. After polymerization at 70°C for 2 hours, stirring was stopped, unpolymerized propylene monomers were removed, and the polymer was collected for testing.

[0067] 7. Butene-1 Polymerization: Use a 5L high-pressure polymerization reactor. After pressurizing and leak testing, and verifying that the reactor is airtight, start the reactor agitator and adjust the speed to 100rpm. Heat the polymerization reactor to 70℃~75℃, use a vacuum pump to statically evacuate for at least 2 minutes, and fully purge the reactor with nitrogen at least 5 times. Then, purge the reactor with nitrogen to 0.05MPa~0.10MPa.

[0068] Under nitrogen protection, the prepared triisobutylaluminum solution and dicyclopentyldimethoxysilane solution were added to the feeder. Using a syringe containing a catalyst sample (mass m0), the mixture in the feeder was drawn up and added to the mixture. The feed valve between the polymerization reactor and the feeder was opened, and the mixture containing the catalyst was added to the reactor. The syringe was rinsed with 5 mL of hexane and added to the polymerization reactor. The feed valve and vent valve were then closed. The hydrogen valve was opened, and 0.85 L (under standard conditions) of hydrogen was added. The hydrogen valve was then closed. The liquid butene-1 feed valve was opened, and 2.3 L of liquid butene-1 was added. The feed valve was then closed. The stirring speed was adjusted to 300 rpm, and the reactor was heated using the temperature-regulating water system. Timing was started when the reactor temperature reached 70°C, and the reaction was carried out for 1 hour. The reactor temperature was maintained at 70°C ± 1°C using the temperature-regulating water system.

[0069] Preparation Example 1

The mixture was stirred and heated until the reflux temperature of the reaction system was reached. Then, 640g of magnesium powder was added sequentially. The reaction was continued until completion, i.e., no more hydrogen was emitted. The mixture was then washed, separated, and dried. The resulting diekoxymagnesium support had an average particle size (D50) of 47.0μm, a particle size distribution index of 0.82, and a magnesium isooctoxy content of 1.7wt%.

[0071] Example 1

[0072] In a 100 mL reactor that has been fully purged with high-purity nitrogen, 10 g of magnesium alkoxy particles from Preparation Example 1, 50 mL of toluene, 3.0 mL of polymethylsiloxane with a kinematic viscosity of 100 cSt, and 2.0 mL of tetraethyl titanate were added. The mixture was heated to 60 °C and held at that temperature for 8 hours to obtain suspension X1. Simultaneously, in a 300 mL reactor that has been fully purged with high-purity nitrogen, 10 mL of toluene and 90 mL of titanium tetrachloride were added. The mixture was heated to 80 °C, and then suspension X1 was added. The mixture was slowly heated to 115 °C. During the heating process, 3.0 mL of di-n-butyl phthalate (DNBP), 1.0 mL of diethyl phthalate, and 1.0 mL of 3,5-heptanediol dibenzoate were added. The mixture was held at that temperature for 2 hours, and then the liquid was filtered clean. Then, a mixture of 30 ml titanium tetrachloride and 120 ml toluene was added, heated to 110°C, and held at that temperature for 1 hour. The liquid was then filtered clean. Next, a mixture of 120 ml titanium tetrachloride and 30 ml toluene was added, heated to 110°C, and stirred for 1 hour. This process was repeated twice. The liquid was then filtered off, and the resulting solid was washed four times with 150 ml of hexane at 60°C. The liquid was then filtered off and the solid powder was dried, yielding the solid catalyst component. Test data are shown in Table 1.

[0073] Example 2
