The invention discloses a preparation method of a supported
metallocene catalyst and application of the supported
metallocene catalyst in
ethylene polymerization, and the preparation method comprises the following steps: adding a
toluene solution containing trimethylaluminum into a container, adding
benzoic acid, reacting at low temperature, then heating to medium temperature for reaction, then heating to high temperature for reaction, cooling, adding n-
hexane, filtering, and
drying to obtain the supported
metallocene catalyst. Extracting supernatant liquid, and
drying to obtain an sMAO product; adding the sMAO product and a modifier into a container, then adding a
toluene solution, cooling to obtain a
slurry, treating the
slurry with n-
hexane to obtain a colorless
solid precipitate, removing a supernatant,
drying and separating to obtain a modified sMAO
solid; and adding the modified sMAO
solid and a metallocene compound into a container, adding
toluene, heating, cooling to obtain an orange solid precipitate, removing the supernatant, and drying the remaining
slurry to obtain the supported metallocene catalyst. The preparation method of the supported metallocene catalyst has the characteristics of simple preparation process, spherical catalyst particles, narrow
particle size distribution and the like.
