Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of olefin polymerization catalyst technology, and more specifically to a catalyst composition and an olefin polymerization method. Background Technology

[0002] The preparation of polymers with novel structures and excellent properties using inexpensive monomers has always been one of the research directions that polymer chemistry researchers have been working tirelessly towards. In 2006, Arriola et al. of Dow Chemical Company in the United States used FI-type zirconium catalyst and aminopyridine hafnium catalyst from Mitsui Chemicals Co., Ltd. in Japan to prepare olefin block copolymers (OBCs) with alternating semi-crystalline and amorphous segment structures under the action of diethylzinc (ZnEt2) (see: Science, 2006, 312(5):714-719). In many properties, OBCs have surpassed other types of thermoplastic polyolefins. For example, in terms of thermal properties, compared with polyolefin elastomers, OBCs exhibit a faster crystallization rate and a more regular crystal morphology, and have better heat resistance. In terms of mechanical properties, OBCs show higher tensile strength, tear strength, elongation at break, and elastic recovery than traditional polyolefin thermoplastic elastomers, making them an ideal alternative to styrene block copolymer TPEs. In terms of processing performance, compared with olefin random copolymers and blends, OBC has the characteristics of easy processing and a balance of rigidity and toughness (see: Elastomers, 2018(3):69-75). Therefore, thanks to its unique properties, it has received widespread attention from the academic and industrial communities at home and abroad.

[0003] In the synthesis of block copolymers, the complexation and separation processes between the catalyst active center and the chain shuttle need to be rapid and reversible. As a novel thermoplastic elastomer, the catalyst olefin block copolymer must have high polymerization activity, but it cannot become a dormant species due to excessively strong binding between the active center and the chain shuttle (see: Macromolecules, 2008, 41(12):4090-4094). Therefore, screening a suitable catalytic system is extremely difficult, and the research progress on the preparation of single-active-center catalysts for OBCs has been relatively slow.

[0004] In 1995, Brookhart et al. pioneered the synthesis of a series of highly active α-diimine nickel / palladium catalysts, which exhibit unique chain-shunt behavior. These catalysts can catalyze the homopolymerization of ethylene to prepare branched polymers with a branching degree of up to 116 branches / 1000C (see: J Am Chem Soc, 1995, 117(23):6414-6415). Furthermore, US6380341B1 and US6169151B1 report the use of stereometallocene catalysts, which exhibit different reaction rates and other polymerization characteristics through interconversion between two stereoconfigurations to form block-structured olefin polymers. Chain shuttle polymerization can prepare novel block polymers with different structures, offering strong product controllability and broad application prospects. Current research reports the use of nickel diimide metallotolocene catalysts to achieve chain shuttle polymerization in the presence of diethylzinc (Macromolecules 2009, 42, 1834-1837). However, the polymerization temperature is relatively low, only 20°C, and the "soft" and "hard" segments of the block copolymers lack precise control. This results in poor reactant flowability and low olefin polymerization activity at high temperatures, failing to meet the requirements of existing solution-based ethylene polymerization equipment. Furthermore, the types of olefin polymerization catalysts capable of achieving chain shuttle polymerization in the presence of chain transfer agents are very limited. Therefore, new catalyst systems for olefin polymerization capable of chain shuttle polymerization are still needed to meet industrial requirements. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned problems in the prior art by providing a catalyst composition and a method for olefin polymerization. Both the first and second metal complexes used can maintain high copolymerization activity of ethylene with C3-C16 α-olefins or cycloolefins at higher temperatures, and the resulting polymers have high molecular weights and narrow molecular weight distributions.

[0270] As can be seen from Table 1, compared with Comparative Examples 1-2 and 6-7 (using metal complexes A1 and B1, but without the addition of chain shuttles), the molecular weight distribution of the polymers prepared in the examples using the catalyst composition of the present invention is significantly lower than that of the polymer mixtures prepared in the comparative examples.

[0271] Compared with Comparative Example 3 (which used metal complex A1 and metal complex B5, but the structure of metal complex B5 is different from that of the present invention), the catalyst composition of the present invention still has high polymerization activity under high temperature conditions, and the molecular weight of the polymer obtained is significantly higher than that of Comparative Example 3.

[0272] Comparative Example 4, using only the first metal complex, yielded a polymer with a smaller molecular weight under the same conditions; Comparative Example 5, using only the second metal complex, yielded a polymer with a larger molecular weight. Furthermore, both the first and second metal complexes used maintained high ethylene polymerization activity at higher temperatures, resulting in polymers with a narrower molecular weight distribution.

[0273] Comparative Examples 1-2 and 6-7 (using two metal complexes A1 and B1, but without the addition of a chain shuttler) could only produce polymer mixtures, not block polymers. The polymer molecular weight distribution M obtained in Examples 1-14 of this invention is shown. w / M n The results were significantly smaller than those of polymers prepared without a chain shuttler, indicating that when the first and second metal complexes were used in combination with a chain shuttler, a block polymer was formed, which was completely different from the mixtures of polymers prepared using only the first and second metal complexes in Comparative Examples 1-2 and 6-7.

[0274] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above; however, the present invention is not limited thereto. Within the scope of the inventive concept, various simple modifications can be made to the technical solutions of the present invention, including combinations of various technical features in any other suitable manner. These simple modifications and combinations should also be considered as the content disclosed in the present invention and are all within the protection scope of the present invention.
