Description

Internal electron donor compound, catalyst component and olefin polymerization method TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of olefin polymerization catalysts, and relates to an internal electron donor compound, a catalyst component and an olefin polymerization method for olefin polymerization, such as alpha-olefin polymerization. BACKGROUND

[0002] It is well known that Ziegler-Natta catalysts for olefin polymerization comprise three parts of a magnesium chloride carrier, an internal electron donor compound and a titanium compound, wherein the internal electron donor compound can not only improve the activity of the catalyst, but also enhance the stereospecificity of the catalyst. If the catalyst lacks a suitable internal electron donor compound, the activity of the catalyst will be affected, and the polymer prepared therefrom may have low isotacticity, leading to production difficulties and limiting end-use applications.

[0003] Up to now, a series of compounds have been widely used as internal electron donors to prepare Ziegler-Natta catalysts, such as aromatic monoester or diester compounds, such as diisobutyl phthalate or ethyl benzoate, used in US4784983A, diol ester compounds used in CN1453298A, succinic acid ester compounds used in CN1313869A, diether compounds used in EP0361494A, salicylic acid ester compounds used in CN1257920C / CN104829757B, 1,2-phenylene aromatic diester compounds used in US61141902A, amide or amide ester compounds used in EP15186252A / CN108570120A, etc. However, in industrial production, each of these internal electron donor compounds has certain defects in practical application, such as: the catalyst using aromatic diester compounds has low catalytic activity; the catalyst using diether compounds has high catalytic activity and good hydrogen response sensitivity, but the obtained polymer has poor regioselectivity; the catalyst using salicylic acid ester compounds has general activity and high xylene solubles; the catalyst using 1,2-phenylene aromatic diester compounds has good catalytic activity and hydrogen response sensitivity, but the obtained polymer has relatively high xylene solubles; the catalyst using amide or amide ester compounds has low activity and high xylene solubles.

[0004] Because of the importance of the role played by the internal electron donor compound in the catalyst and the existing defects of the current internal electron donor compounds in practical application, the improvement of the internal electron donor compound has always been a research hotspot in the field.

[0005] CN1257920C and US61141902A use salicylate and 1,2-phenylene aromatic diester compounds as internal electron donors of propylene polymerization catalyst, but do not realize the importance of group substitution on the benzene ring. CN104829757B and US61141902A make some simple substitutions on the benzene ring, but the activity and stereoselectivity and hydrogen regulation ability of the catalyst still have room for further improvement.

[0006] Phthalate compounds as plasticizer substances have attracted more and more attention on the potential harm to human health, which also limits its use in Ziegler-Natta catalyst; secondly, different internal electron donors have a significant impact on the performance of Ziegler-Natta catalyst, and by developing different internal electron donors to obtain high-efficiency catalysts with different functions, which is of great importance to the further development of polyolefin industry.

[0007] Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a new internal electron donor which can overcome the defects of the prior art for preparing olefin polymerization catalyst. SUMMARY

[0233] Table 2

[0234] The polymerization results in Table 2 show that using a 3-4 cyclic modified salicylic acid derivative as an internal electron donor catalyst for propylene polymerization exhibits excellent activity and low xylene solubility. Under the same preparation process, the activity and isotacticity of the 3-4 cyclic modified salicylic acid derivative as an internal electron donor catalyst are significantly better than those of the uncyclic derivatized salicylic acid. The molecular weight distribution of the resulting polypropylene is significantly wider than that of polypropylene obtained with phthalate catalysts. Furthermore, the isotacticity is higher when R3 is 3-4 cyclic, and even higher when there is a substituent at the 5-position. The isotacticity can be further improved when there is a 5-6 cyclic ring.
