[0103] Comparative Example 1 This comparative example provides a method for preparing polyethylene wax by catalyzing ethylene polymerization with a Ziegler-Natta catalyst (CN101589072A), invented by V. Schlenk et al. of Evonik Degussa LLC. The method uses a Ziegler-Natta catalyst composed of titanium tetrachloride and a dialkylaluminum halide. Under polymerization conditions such as a polymerization temperature of 185°C, an Al / Ti molar ratio of 1.4, and substantially no solvent in the polymerization system, the obtained polyethylene wax product has a weight-average molecular weight of 4100 g / mol, a molecular weight distribution index of 3.40, a melting point of 117°C, and a drop melting point of 120°C.

[0104] Comparative Example 2 This comparative example provides a method for preparing polypropylene wax by polymerization of a metallocene compound in the presence of hydrogen (CN1206720A), invented by H.F. Hermann et al. of Clariant Co., Ltd., using ethylene bis-1, l'-(2-methyl-4-phenylindenyl) zirconium dichloride as a catalyst, under polymerization conditions such as 12 mmol triethylaluminum, a polymerization temperature of 70°C, and 2.5 bar hydrogen, the obtained polypropylene wax product has a weight average molecular weight of 5600 g / mol, a molecular weight distribution index of 2.27, a melting point of 152°C, and a drop melting point of 155°C.

[0105] Taking the poly (4-methyl-1-pentene) wax prepared in Example 12 as an example, its performance was measured and compared with the polyethylene wax and polypropylene wax in Comparative Examples 1-2. The specific results are shown in Table 7: Table 7. Comparison results of polyolefin wax properties.

[0106] sample Polyethylene wax (Comparative Example 1) Polypropylene wax (Comparative Example 2) Poly(4-methyl-1-pentene) wax (Example 12) Weight average molecular weight (g / mol) 4100 5600 4500 Molecular weight distribution index 3.40 2.27 1.92 Melting point (℃) 117 152 183 Drop melting point (℃) 120 155 186 Surface tension (mN / m) 31 31~33 24 As shown in Table 7, compared with polyethylene wax (Comparative Example 1) and polypropylene wax (Comparative Example 2), the molecular weight distribution of the poly (4-methyl-1-pentene) wax of the present invention is narrower, not higher than 2.0, which makes it have better lubrication performance; in terms of temperature resistance, the melting point and drop melting point of the poly (4-methyl-1-pentene) wax of the present invention are not less than 180°C, which is much greater than the melting point and drop melting point of the polyethylene wax and polypropylene wax in the comparative example, showing better temperature resistance; in terms of stripping performance, the surface tension of the poly (4-methyl-1-pentene) wax of the present invention is extremely low, which is 24 mN / m, which is much less than the surface tension of the polyethylene wax and polypropylene wax in the comparative example, showing better easy stripping performance. The experimental results show that compared with the existing polyethylene wax and polypropylene wax, the poly (4-methyl-1-pentene) wax provided by the present invention has better lubrication performance, temperature resistance and easy stripping performance.
