Abstract:
A novel Phillips catalyst for the homopolymerization of ethylene and the copolymerization of ethylene with .alpha.-olefins contains, as a catalytically active component, a chromium catalyst supported on a finely divided aluminum silicate gel, modified with a fluoride and activated in an oxidizing atmosphere at elevated temperatures. The finely divided aluminum silicate gel (carrier gel) used here has an alumina content of from 0.5 to 6% by weight, the alumina being concentrated in the surface region of the carrier gel particles. The novel Phillips catalyst has high productivity and gives high molecular weight ethylene homopolymers and copolymers which have excellent low temperature impact strength and do not tend to swell in the blow molding process on emergence from the extruder die.

In the process, the supported catalyst (1) used is one which is obtained (using specific methods and substances in each case) by a procedure in which (1.1) in a first stage (1.1.1), a suspension is first prepared from (1.1.1.1) a finely divided silicate carrier and (1.1.1.2) an inert organic solvent, (1.1.2) a suspension is then prepared from (1.1.2.1) a finely divided chromium trioxide and (1.1.2.2) an inert organic solvent, (1.1.3) thereafter (1.1.3.1) the suspension resulting from (1.1.2) is combined with (1.1.3.2) a phosphate or phosphite, (1.1.4) then (1.1.4.1) the suspension obtained from (1.1.1) is combined with (1.1.4.2) the reaction product obtained in (1.1.3), (1.1.5) thereafter (1.1.5.1) the suspension formed in (1.1.4) is combined with (1.1.5.2) a titanate, (1.1.6) finally the suspension obtained in (1.1.5) is evaporated to dryness and then (1.2) in a second stage, (1.2.1) the intermediate obtained in (1.1) is first treated with a nitrogen stream, (1.2.2) an intermediate obtained in (1.2.1) is then heated in an oxygen-containing gas stream and finally (1.2.3) the intermediate obtained in (1.2.2) is treated with a nitrogen stream, and a lithiumalkyl is used as (2).
