    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for transitioning from a first contiunuous polymerization reaction of ethylene and a first comonomer for producing a linear low density polyethylene conducted in the presence of a Ziegler-Natta catalyst in a gas phase reactor to a second contiunuous polymerization reaction of ethylene and a second comonomer for producing a high density polyethylene conducted in the presence of a chromium-based catalyst in the gas phase reactor, the process comprising: (i) reducing the feed of the first comonomer into the reactor until the ratio of the first comonomer to ethylene in the reactor is at most 0.1; (ii) discontinuing the introduction of the Ziegler-Natta catalyst while the introduction of a co-catalyst of the Ziegler-Natta catalyst is continued and subsequently discontinuing the introduction of the co-catalyst; (iii) maintaining the polymerization conditions in the reactor and permitting polymerization to continue for a time in order to allow the components of the Ziegler-Natta catalyst present in the reactor to consume themselves in the production of additional polymer; (iv) discontinuing the introduction of all feeds into the reactor; (v) depressurizing the reactor; (vi) flow-purging the reactor; (vii) reducing the reactor temperature; (viii) introducing ethylene and H2 into the reactor to obtain a partial pressure of ethylene and a volume ratio of H2 to ethylene for the second polymerization reaction, wherein the partial pressure of ethylene is increased to the pressure for the second polymerization reaction at such a speed that the reactor temperature is maintained at a temperature lower than the temperature of the first polymerization conditions; (ix) increasing the reactor temperature to a temperature of the second polymerization conditions; (x) introducing the second catalyst into the reactor and (xi) introducing the second comonomer into the reactor to obtain a reactor composition for the second polymerization reaction.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a polymerization process for the production of high density polyethylene by polymerization of ethylene in the presence of a catalyst composition comprising a chromium compound, a support material wherein the alcohol is a primary alcohol having the formula (I) wherein R, R′ and R″ are the same or different and respectively represent a linear or branched N alkyl, cycloalkyl, phenyl or phenyl containing radicals comprising from 5 to 15 carbon atoms and wherein only one of R, R′ or R″ can be a hydrogen radical and/or wherein the alcohol is a secondary alcohol and/or a secondary cyclic alcohol. The catalyst composition may also comprise a titanium compound. The high density polyethylene may be applied in the production of blow molded articles.
