Long-term efficiency for reducing entanglements of nascent polyethylene by a polystyrene-modified Ziegler-Natta catalyst

Yu Cao et al.

Summary: By successfully incorporating PS chains into silica hierarchical pores, weakly entangled UHMWPE was synthesized at 70 degrees Celsius with exceptional activity, where the PS blocks effectively compartmentalized the polyethylene chains to reduce entanglements. The ubiquitous PS isolators efficiently hindered chain overlaps during polymerization, resulting in significantly improved toughness/stiffness/strength balance of the weakly entangled UHMWPE.

Probing into Effects of Support Pre-Treatment on the Polymerization Behavior and Morphology Development of Mg(OEt)2-Based Ziegler-Natta Catalysts

Mohammad Hossein Jandaghian et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of milling and heat-treatment of Mg(OEt)2 as precursors in the synthesis of supported Ziegler-Natta catalysts. The support treatment did not affect elemental analysis results, but significantly influenced the morphology of catalyst pores. Catalysts made using different treated supports showed differences in activity, particle size, and distribution.

Summary: Poly (epsilon-caprolactone, PCL) matrix composite scaffolds with controlled gradient pore structure (GPS) were prepared by 3D printing. It is shown that GPS stimulates the osteogenic and chondrogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in vitro. Different effects of nanobioceramics (Bioglass and Titania) on the cell differentiation and tissue-ingrowth kinetics are reported.

Solution-state NMR study of organic components of industrial Ziegler-Natta catalysts: Effect of by-products on catalyst performance

Ashutosh Thakur et al.

Summary: In the preparation of Ziegler-Natta (ZN) catalysts, various Mg(OEt)(2)-based catalysts were studied for their organic components through solution-state NMR measurements, revealing that internal donors (ID) may undergo side reactions to produce organic by-products, such as titanium alkoxy by-products. These by-products, resulted from the reaction between Mg(OEt)(2) and TiCl4, were found to be detrimental to the catalyst activity, impacting the crystallinity and stereoregularity of the polypropylene produced. Possible reasons for the negative effects of titanium alkoxy by-products were discussed.

Ahad Hanifpour et al.

Summary: A series of new titanium (IV) complexes with tetradentate diamine-diphenolates were synthesized, showing high activities in 1-decene oligomerization experiments. The oligomers obtained by Cat3 exhibited the highest isotacticity value. The molecular weight of the obtained oligomers was found to be closely related to the ligand structures.

Formation of Highly Active Ziegler-Natta Catalysts Clarified by a Multifaceted Characterization Approach

Alessandro Piovano et al.

Summary: The formation of nanosized and defective b-MgCl2 in Ziegler-Natta catalysts was investigated using a variety of characterization techniques, revealing that the addition of TiCl4 and an internal donor such as dibutyl phthalate (DBP) play crucial roles in the reconstruction and growth of MgCl2 seeds. The complex interactions between TiClx(OEt)(4-x) and DBP were studied, shedding light on the catalytic activity of the catalyst during the preparation process. This multifaceted approach provided deep insights into the industrial catalyst preparation method.

TiCl4/MgCl2/MCM-41 Bi-Supported Ziegler-Natta Catalyst: Effects of Catalyst Composition on Ethylene/1-Hexene Copolymerization

Xiaoyu Liu et al.

Summary: In this study, TiCl4/MgCl2/MCM-41 type bi-supported Ziegler-Natta catalysts with different MgCl2/MCM-41 ratios were synthesized and used for ethylene/1-hexene copolymerization. It was found that the bi-supported catalysts exhibited higher activity and stronger comonomer activation effect compared to the TiCl4/MgCl2 catalyst. The introduction of MCM-41 in the support significantly changed the active center distribution of the catalyst, resulting in less production of low molecular weight copolymer fractions with high 1-hexene content.
