Abstract:
A process for producing sticky polymers at polymerization reaction temperatures in excess of the softening temperature of the sticky polymers in a fluidized bed reactor catalyzed by a transition metal catalyst, which comprises conducting the polymerization reaction above the softening temperatures of the sticky polymers in the presence of about 0.3 to about 80 weight percent, based on the weight of the final product of an inert particulate material having a mean particle size of from about 0.01 to about 10 microns whereby polymer agglomeration of the sticky polymers is maintained at a size suitable for continuously producing the sticky polymers.
Abstract:
Ethylene copolymers having a very low molecular weight are continuously prepared in a fluidized bed in the presence of reduced concentrations of hydrogen, at improved catalyst activity and polymer productivity, by effecting polymerization in the presence of a dialkylzinc compound.
