Abstract:
A polymer-bonded granular adsorptive, absorptive, chemisorptive, or catalytically active material and a process for producing molded bodies from this material. An objective was to develop a polymer-bonded granular adsorptive, absorptive, chemisorptive, or catalytically active material which is capable of forming an open-pore and sorptive foamed body at increased temperatures while not reducing the specific surface of the active material and with a binding effect only during the mixing and processing phases, as well as a process for producing molded bodies from this material. This objective was met by mixing and processing an adsorptive, absorptive, chemisorptive, or catalytically active fine-grained material together with a finely particulate, meltable polyethylene with the addition of a binding agent having an oligocondensate basis.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for preparing a carrier used in olefin polymerization catalysts, comprising suspending anhydrous magnesium chloride in an inert hydrocarbon solvent and then under stirring, activating the magnesium chloride with a C2-C8 alcohol at a temperature of 30° C. to 200° C., with the molar ratio of said alcohol to said magnesium chloride being in the range of 0.05 to 2.5. Moreover, in order to make the resultant catalysts more active, the process according to the present invention can further include a pre-dispersing step conducted prior to the activation step, wherein the dispersing agent is alkoxides of titanium or C3-C8 alcohols and the molar ratio of said dispersing agent to said magnesium chloride is 0.01 to 2.0. The catalyst prepared from the resultant carrier is suitable for polymerizing ethylene or compolymerizing ethylene with alpha-olefin.
Abstract:
The olefin polymerization catalyst comprises a supported transition metal, magnesium and halogen; the support comprises aluminum phosphate and at least one oxide of silica or alumina. The catalyst is formed by impregnating the support with a liquid complex formed by reacting a magnesium compound and a transition metal compound, which can contain either oxygen or halogen, and then precipitating the complex on the support with an organoaluminum compound which may be halogenated. The catalyst is used with an organometallic cocatalyst.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to photocatalyst-carrying structures which can be used particularly in an environment of high temperature and humidity or outdoor environment requiring alkali resistance and also to composites of photocatalyst coating materials to produce the said structures. The composites of photocatalyst coating materials are characterized in containing a photocatalyst and a zirconium compound and/or tin compound in order to endow alkali resistance. The photocatalyst-carrying structure has an adhesive layer between a photocatalyst layer and a carrier. The photocatalyst layer contains a photocatalyst, and a zirconium compound and/or tin compound to endow alkali resistance.
