    Abstract: Methods of making polyisobutylene and catalyst systems are described. Polyisobutylene compositions and catalyst system compositions are also described. In some embodiments, a method of making a catalyst system includes: providing a support material; calcining the support material; and forming a catalyst system by adding to the support material (a) a mixture comprising BF3, (b) a mixture comprising BF3 and a complexing agent, or (c) both. In some embodiments, a method of making a polymer composition includes providing a catalyst system comprising: (a) a support material selected from the group consisting of Al2O3, ZrO2, TiO2, SnO2, CeO2, SiO2, SiO2/Al2O3, and combinations thereof; and (b) BF3; providing a feedstock comprising isobutylene; forming a reaction mixture comprising the feedstock and the catalyst system; contacting the isobutylene with the catalyst system; and obtaining a polymer composition.

    Abstract: In an embodiment, a process to convert a feed includes introducing a feed to an oligomerization catalyst in an oligomerization reactor to form a first reactor effluent; introducing the first reactor effluent to a distillation unit to form a first distillation effluent and a second distillation effluent, the second distillation effluent comprising an oligomer of isobutylene; and introducing the second distillation effluent to a cracking reactor to form a cracking reactor effluent comprising a high purity isobutylene. In another embodiment, an apparatus includes a feed line coupled to a first end of an oligomerization reactor; a first distillation unit coupled with a second end of the oligomerization reactor; a first end of a cracking reactor coupled to a second end of the first distillation unit via a first line; a first end of an isomerization reactor coupled to: a third end of the first distillation unit and the feed line.

    Abstract: Embodiments described herein generally relate to new processes for converting C4 feeds to isobutylene. In an embodiment is provided a process for forming isobutylene that includes hydroisomerizing 1,3-butadiene present in a C4 feed to form a hydroisomerization product effluent comprising isobutylene and 2-butene; and forming an isobutylene feed by separating the isobutylene from the hydroisomerization product effluent. Embodiments of the present disclosure also generally relate to new processes for converting C4 feeds to polyisobutylene. In an embodiment is provided a process that includes hydroisomerizing a C4 feed comprising 1,3-butadiene in a hydroisomerization reactor to form a hydroisomerization product effluent comprising isobutylene and 2-butene; separating the isobutylene from the hydroisomerization product effluent to form a first isobutylene-containing feed; forming a reaction mixture comprising a polymerization catalyst and the first isobutylene-containing feed; and reacting the reaction mixture, in a polymerization reactor, to form a polymerization product effluent comprising polyisobutylene.
