Abstract:
One aspect of the present invention relates to a catalyst system for use in olefinic polymerization, containing a solid titanium catalyst component; an organoaluminum compound having at least one aluminum-carbon bond; and an organosilicon compound comprising a (cycloalkyl)methyl group. Another aspect of the present invention relates to a method of making a catalyst for use in olefinic polymerization, involving the steps of reacting a Grignard reagent having a (cycloalkyl)methyl group with an orthosilicate to provide an organosilicon compound having a (cycloalkyl)methyl moiety; and combining the organosilicon compound with an organoaluminum compound having at least one aluminum-carbon bond and a solid titanium catalyst component to form the catalyst.
Abstract:
A wheel-type resistance device includes a flywheel rotatably mounted on a shaft, a mount secured to the shaft and having a slot, left and right mounting strips anchored to the mount and having pulled ends adjacent to the slot, left and right pulling cords respectively connected to the pulled ends and respectively having left and right lugged ends, a guiding block operable to move along the slot such that a hauling force is transmitted for lugging the lugged ends to thereby move the mounting strips, and a force apportioning member coupling the lugged ends with the guiding block such that during movement of the guiding block, a main amount of the hauling force is initially diverted to the left pulling cord to move the left mounting strip, and the hauling force transmitted to the left and right lugged ends is subsequently equalized to move the left and right mounting strips.
Abstract:
The invention is directed to inorganic oxide-containing aerogels and the method of preparing such oxide-containing aerogels which are characterized by high surface areas and high pore volume. The preparation comprises dissolving the inorganic alkoxide or metal salt in a solvent optionally containing a catalytic amount of an acid or base and hydrolyzing the metal compound which is then further treated with a fluid at or above its critical temperature and pressure to extract the solvent.
Abstract:
One aspect of the present invention relates to a catalyst system for use in olefinic polymerization, containing a solid titanium catalyst component prepared by contacting a titanium compound and a magnesium compound; an organoaluminum compound having at least one aluminum-carbon bond; and an organosilicon compound comprising at least one of cyclobutyl group. Another aspect of the present invention relates to a method of making a catalyst for use in olefinic polymerization, involving the steps of reacting a Grignard reagent having a cyclobutyl group with an orthosilicate to provide an organosilicon compound having a cyclobutyl moiety; and combining the organosilicon compound with an organoaluminum compound having at least one aluminum-carbon bond and a solid titanium catalyst component prepared by contacting a titanium compound and a magnesium compound.

The invention is directed to inorganic oxide aerogels and the method of preparing such inorganic oxide aerogels which are characterized by high surface areas and high pore volume. The preparation comprises dissolving the inorganic alkoxide or metal salt in a solvent optionally containing a catalytic amount of an acid or base and hydrolyzing to form a gelled or colloidal material which is further treated with a fluid at or above its critical temperature and pressure to extract the solvent which is then dried to remove surface water.
