Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of polyolefins, and in particular to a polyolefin composition and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Highly crystalline polypropylene has good heat deformation temperature, high bending modulus and certain impact resistance. It is widely used in food packaging boxes, heat-resistant parts of household appliances and blending modification. At present, the mainstream high-crystalline polypropylene at home and abroad is usually prepared by adding nucleating agents to polypropylene base resins. As a common additive for polymer modification, nucleating agents can improve the crystallinity of products, thereby improving the rigidity of products, shortening the molding cycle, and maintaining the dimensional stability of the final product. Its mechanism of action is: in the molten state, it provides crystal nuclei, so that the crystallization mechanism of the polymer is transformed from the original homogeneous nucleation to heterogeneous nucleation, improving the crystallization ability and refining the grains.
[0003] At present, the industry mainly adds nucleating agents during the polymer pelletizing process. Regardless of whether it is an inorganic nucleating agent, an organic nucleating agent or a polymer nucleating agent, adding it during the pelletizing stage will more or less lead to problems such as poor compatibility and poor dispersibility between the nucleating agent and the polymer, which will prevent many properties of polyolefin products from being brought into play, and sometimes will also lead to a deterioration in the appearance of the polymer product, such as the appearance of white spots in the product.
[0004] Another method of adding a nucleating agent is to produce or add the nucleating agent before or during the polymerization process, which is intermittent addition of the nucleating agent. In the continuous polymerization process, the catalyst is introduced uniformly, which can better ensure the stability of the performance of different batches of products. Compared with the introduction of the polymer of the vinyl compound into the polymerization reaction process, its stability may be affected by the polymerization reaction process, so that the nucleation effect cannot be guaranteed, and the obtained polymer lamellae are of low thickness, poor impact performance, and poor heat resistance. Summary of the invention
[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the problems existing in the prior art and to provide a polyolefin composition and a preparation method thereof.
[0006] In order to achieve the above objectives, the first aspect of the present invention provides a polyolefin composition, wherein the long period thickness of the polyolefin composition is 12 nm or more; the thickness of the lamellar crystal region is 6.5 nm or more, and the mass crystallinity is 56% or more.
[0007] A second aspect of the present invention provides a method for preparing a polyolefin composition, the method comprising:
[0008] (1) in a first prepolymerization reactor, mixing a polymerizable monomer a with a first prepolymerization catalyst component to conduct a first prepolymerization reaction;
[0009] (2) continuously conveying the product obtained in step (1) to a second prepolymerization reactor, contacting it with a second prepolymerization catalyst component and a polymerizable monomer b to carry out a second prepolymerization reaction; the relationship between the prepolymerization ratio REP1 of the first prepolymerization reaction and the prepolymerization ratio REP2 of the second prepolymerization reaction satisfies: REP1 / REP2≤0.4, and the polymerizable monomer a is not propylene;
[0010] (3) The product obtained in step (2) is mixed with polymerizable monomer c to carry out polymerization reaction.
[0011] The third aspect of the present invention provides a polyolefin composition prepared by the above method.
[0012] Through the above technical scheme, the polyolefin composition of the present invention has high long-period thickness and lamellar crystal region thickness, excellent bending modulus, good impact performance (impact strength), and good heat resistance. The method of the present invention can significantly improve the melting temperature, crystallization temperature, crystal region thickness and long-period thickness of the polymer and the bending modulus of the polymer, and no nucleating agent needs to be added in the subsequent processing process. At the same time, compared with the method of intermittent pretreatment of catalysts and polymerization monomers, the polymer performance parameters obtained by the method of the present invention are more stable and the quality is more stable.
