摘要:
A process is provided for extruding a bimodal polyethylene resin. The process includes providing a polyethylene homopolymer or copolymer resin having a bimodal molecular weight distribution; conveying the resin through an extruder having a feed zone in which the resin is not melted, a melt-mixing zone in which at least a portion of the resin is melted, and a melt zone in which the resin is in a molten state, each zone being partially filled with the resin; and contacting the molten resin in the melt zone with a gas mixture of 8 to 40% by volume O2. The resin can be further pelletized. The oxygen-tailored resin can be used to make polyethylene films having improved bubble stability.

摘要:
A process of forming a bimetallic catalyst composition comprising a cocatalyst (a trialkylaluminum compound) and a catalyst precursor. The precursor comprises at least two transition metals; a metallocene complex is a source of one of said two transition metals. The precursor is produced in a single-pot process by contacting a porous carrier, in sequence, with a dialkylmagnesium compound, an aliphatic alcohol, a non-metallocene transition metal compound, a contact product of a metallocene complex and a trialkylaluminum compound, and methylalumoxane.

摘要:
A make-up catalyst of at least one metallic component of a bimetallic catalyst component is used in conjunction with a bimetallic catalyst to control the proportion of weight fractions in broad or bimodal molecular weight distribution olefin resin product. The bimetallic catalyst which is formed with at least one metallocene of a transition metal, produces broad or bimodal molecular weight distribution polyolefin resin whose composition depends on the ratio of the concentration of the two catalyst components producing the HMW/LMW components. The make-up catalyst consisting of a single metal component is added in proportion necessary to make-up the deficiencies in the amount of the HMW/LMW component. The type of make-up catalyst added depends on whether increase of the HMW or LMW component produced by the bimetallic catalyst is sought.

The invention relates to a catalyst component which is a tract product of reagents comprising silica which has a pore volume which exceeds 2.9 cc/gram and an average pore diameter which exceed 400 Angstroms;a metallocene of a first transition metal, activated by an alumoxane,a contact product of dialkylmagnesium and trialkylsilanol,a second transition metal source which exhibits a hydrogen response which is different from that of the metallocenean olefin of 4 to 20 carbon atoms. This catalyst component is activated by an aluminum alkyl activator.
摘要:
Resins which are in situ catalytically produced blends of broad bimodal molecular weight distribution ethylene resin are produced. The resins of the invention are characterized by a blend of low molecular weight component and high molecular weight component with HMW component weight fraction which is greater than 0 (zero). Generally, the LMW/HMW weight fraction can be controlled within a very broad range. The resin has a molecular weight distribution, which is characterized as MFR or Mw/Mn. The bimodal molecular weight resins can be processed into films on existing equipment, and exhibit good processability in blown film production and provide film product of excellent FQR. The resin of the invention exhibits reduced tendency towards die-lip buildup and smoking in on-line operations.
