Abstract:
A new catalyst system, for the homo- and copolymerization of olefins, conjugated or unconjugated dienes or mixtures thereof, is composed of a Ziegler catalyst transition metal compound and an aluminum compound having the general formula:
wherein X is hydrogen or halogen; both R''s are hydrocarbon radicals; and R'' is an unsaturated or saturated aliphatic divalent hydrocarbon radical, unsubstituted cycloalkyl radical or unsubstituted aryl radical.
Abstract:
A process for the stercospecific polymerization of conjugated diene by polymerizing in the presence of a catalyst comprising a compound of a transition metal of titanium vanadium zirconium, cobolt, manganese and nickel and a polyiminic polymer.
