Provided for herein is a process to produce an essentially homogeneous single liquid phase hydrocarbon-rubber cement from a polymer slurry comprising a hydrocarbon-rubber, a diluent, and unreacted monomer(s), the process comprising: (a) contacting the polymer slurry with a hydrocarbon solvent; and (b) removing the diluent in amounts not sufficiently more than is necessary to produce the essentially homogeneous single liquid phase hydrocarbon-rubber cement wherein the mass fraction of monomer(s) in the hydrocarbon-rubber cement, based on the total amount of hydrocarbon-rubber present in the hydrocarbon-rubber cement, is less than the mass fraction of monomer(s) in the hydrocarbon-rubber slurry, based on the total amount of hydrocarbon-rubber present in the hydrocarbon-rubber slurry, wherein the diluent comprises a hydrofluorocarbon.

The invention relates to a new catalyst system that improves the heat transfer capability of a butyl reactor slurry process system in the production of random copolymers of one or more isoolefin monomers and one or more conjugated diene monomers in continuous slurry polymerization processes. The process is carried out in an anhydrous polymerization system containing a mixture of the monomers in a polar diluent along with a Lewis acid and a C5 or greater initiator having a tertiary halide.

A process plant for the manufacture of halobutyl rubber is provided with online monitoring and control of the process parameters to control the properties of the product. It incorporates an in-situ measurement system that does not require the removal of any sample material from the process. It uses a Fourier Transform Near Infrared (FTNIR) spectrometer, fiber-optic cables, a viscometer for measuring solution viscosity and a Resistance Temperature Device (RTD) for temperature measurement. An online real-time analyzer system using a Constrained Principal Spectral Analysis program predicts the property of the polymer product and provides the process control system with analysis of the data using derived relationships between the physical properties of the polymer and these spectral measurements and the measured values of fluid viscosity and temperature. Differences between the predicted and desired property of the product are used to control process parameters. The method can be used for a variety of chemical process plants.
摘要:
The disclosure provides for a process and polymerization system to produce isoolefin polymers (72) utilizing polymorphogenates (16, 26) in the catalyst system to control polydispersity (MWD). The disclosure also provides a catalyst system (20) comprising a plurality of active catalyst complex species (34) formed by combination of a Lewis acid (24), an initiator (22) and a polymorphogenate (26), as well as polymers made using the catalyst system or process. The polymorphogenate (16, 26) can promote or mimic the formation of different active catalyst complex species (34) having different polymerization rates, i.e. different rates of propagation, chain transfer, or termination, as observed by different polydispersities resulting from the presence of relatively different proportions of the polymorphogenate.

Provided is a method for reducing depositions in polymerization vessels, where the method includes the steps of providing a reaction vessel having polymerization contact surfaces, polishing a majority of the polymerization contact surfaces to have an average percent excess surface areas (SAxs) of 2% or less, introducing a catalyst system and at least one monomer or comonomer mixture in the reaction vessel, and polymerizing the at least one monomer or comonomer mixture. The catalyst may be soluble in the diluent used for polymerization. The method may be useful for low temperature polymerization systems.
