Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present invention relates to a solid catalyst component
for CH.sub.2.dbd.CHR olefin polymerization, where R is hydrogen or
hydrocarbon group having 1 to 12 carbon atoms, and more
particularly, the present invention relates to a solid catalyst
component containing at least one particular type of
ring-substituted ether-acid ester compound, a catalyst containing
the solid catalyst component and the application of the catalyst in
reactions of olefin polymerization, particularly in the reactions
of propylene polymerization.
BACKGROUND ART
[0002] Electron donor compounds can maximally change the property
of the active center of Ziegler-Natta catalysts for olefin
polymerization, thereby changing the performance of the catalyst to
the greatest extent. Therefore, in a sense, research on
high-efficiency Ziegler-Natta catalyst is to find better electron
donors. The research on the internal electron donor in China and
abroad is mainly focused on traditional fatty acid esters and
aromatic acid ester compounds; diethers (e.g. EP0361493, EP0728724)
and succinic acid esters (e.g. WO9856834, WO0063261, WO03022894)
compounds; and diol esters (e.g. CN1580033, CN1580034, CN1580035)
compounds, etc. However, in practical applications, there are some
problems with the aforementioned compounds serving as the electron
donor of catalyst component for olefin polymerization, e.g. the
polymers obtained by use of the catalyst system prepared by diether
compounds have a narrow molecular weight distribution, while the
polymer products obtained by use of the succinic acid ester
catalyst system have a broad molecular weight distribution. The
activity of diol esters catalyst system is often not as good as
that of diether system. In order to obtain a more balanced overall
performance of the catalyst, a variety of new compounds have been
developed and used in the preparation of Ziegler-Natta
catalysts.
[0003] Introduction of more functional groups into a compound
structure is one of the general trend in creating the electron
donor compounds with excellent overall performance. There are many
reports on the preparation and application of the polyfunctional
compounds, such as the development of new internal electron donor,
such as keto-ether (WO2010144079), keto-ester (WO2005097841), and
ether-ester (WO2005123784, WO2012087522, WO2012087527). The main
purpose of introducing multiple functional groups in a compound is
to take full use of the advantages of these functional groups.
[0004] However, Ziegler-Natta catalyst components prepared by using
the aformentioned compounds are still unsatisfactory in
activity/isotacticity when used for olefin polymerization,
therefore further research and development are still required.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0005] The object of the present invention is to provide a solid
catalyst component for CH.sub.2.dbd.CHR olefin polymerization.

chloride, triethoxy titanium chloride, tripropoxy titanium chloride
or tri-n-butoxy titanium chloride. These titanium halides can be
used alone or in combination. Titanium tetrachloride is preferably
used.
[0065] Solid catalyst component of the present invention can be
prepared in various ways.
[0066] According to one way of preparation, a solution of
TiCl.sub.4 or titanium alkoxide in an aromatic hydrocarbon (e.g.,
toluene, xylene, etc.), is reacted with magnesium dihydrocarboxide
such as magnesium dialkoxide or magnesium diaryloxide or the like
at -25-0.degree. C., and halogenated at 80-130.degree. C. Treatment
with solution of TiCl.sub.4 in an aromatic hydrocarbon can be
repeated one or more times and the ring-substituted ether-acid
ester compounds of the general formula (I)-(V) can be added in such
treatments. For example, it may be prepared according to the
preparation method of titanium-containing solid catalyst component
as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,077,357: successively adding
magnesium ethoxide, titanium tetraethoxide, o-cresol, ethanol and
chlorobenzene with stirring; quickly adding
TiCl.sub.4/chlorobenzene solution to the above liquid, heating the
mixture until complete dissolution, continuing to heat the mixture
up to a particular temperature; after using N.sub.2 bubbling to
remove the ethanol reactant, continuing stirring for a
predetermined duration of time, and then washing with hot
chlorobenzene, washing twice with isooctane, then drying by N.sub.2
to obtain a carrier. Alternatively, the preparation can be done in
accordance with another example: successively adding TiCl.sub.4,
titanium tetraethoxide, magnesium ethoxide and o-cresol in
chlorobenzene with stirring; adding ethanol and keeping stirring at
high temperature for 3 h until magnesium ethoxide is dissolved; hot
filtering and washing with warm chlorobenzene and then with
isooctane, finally drying by N.sub.2.
[0067] According to another method, magnesium alkoxide or magnesium
chloroalkoxide are reacted with an excess of TiCl.sub.4 in a
solution containing the ring-substituted ether-acid ester compounds
represented by the general formula (I)-(V) at a temperature of
80-135.degree. C. According to a preferred method, the titanium
compound represented by the general formula TiX.sub.n(OR).sub.4-n,
wherein R is C.sub.1-C.sub.20 hydrocarbon group, X is halogen,
n=1-4; preferably TiCl.sub.4, is reacted with the adduct
represented by the formula MgCl.sub.2.mROH to prepare a solid
catalyst component, wherein m is a number from 0.1 to 6, preferably
from 2 to 3.5, and R is a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 20 carbon
atoms. The adduct can be suitably prepared to be spherically shaped
according to the following method: in the presence of an inert
hydrocarbon which is immiscible with the adduct, alcohol and
magnesium chloride are mixed, followed by quickly cooling the
emulsion to solidify the adduct in the form of spherical particles.
Examples of the spherical MgCl.sub.2.mROH adduct prepared according
to the method can be found in U.S. Pat. No. 4,399,054 and in U.S.
Pat. No. 4,469,648. The obtained adduct can be directly reacted
with the Ti compound or it can be first subjected to thermal
controlled dealcoholation (80-130.degree. C.) to obtain an adduct
in which the mole number of alcohol is generally lower than 3,
preferably between 0.1 and 2.5. The adduct (dealcoholated or
itself) can then be suspended in cold TiCl.sub.4 (generally
-25-0.degree. C.) to react with the titanium compound; the mixture
was heated to 80-130.degree. C. and kept at this temperature for
0.5-2 hours. Treatment with TiCl.sub.4 can be repeated one or more
times. During the treatment with TiCl.sub.4, the ring-substituted
ether-acid ester compounds represented by the general formula
(I)-(V) may be added and this treatment can be repeated one or more
times.
[0068] Another method for preparing the solid catalyst component of
the present invention includes steps as follows: anhydrous
magnesium chloride and the ring-substituted ether-acid ester
compounds represented by the general formula (I)-(V) are grinded
together under a condition that activation of the magnesium
dichloride occurs. The product thus obtained can be treated with an
excess of TiCl.sub.4 at a temperature of 80-130.degree. C. one or
more times. After the above treatment the product is washed with a
hydrocarbon solvent until no chlorine ions exist. According to a
further method, the product obtained by co-grinding anhydrous
magnesium dichloride, titanium compound and the ring-substituted
ether-acid ester compounds represented by the general formula
(I)-(V) is treated with a halogenated hydrocarbon such as
1,2-dichloro ethane, chlorobenzene, methylene chloride or the like.
This treatment is carried out at a temperature from 40.degree. C.
to boiling point of the halogenated hydrocarbon for 1-4 hours. Then
the product can be obtained generally by washing with an inert
hydrocarbon solvent such as hexane.
[0069] According to another method, magnesium dichloride is
preactivated according to a well known method, and then treated
with an excess of TiCl.sub.4 at a temperature of about
80-135.degree. C., wherein the solution contains ring-substituted
ether-acid ester compounds represented by the general formula
(I)-(V). The solid is treated with TiCl.sub.4 repeatedly and washed
with hexane to remove any unreacted TiCl.sub.4.
[0070] A further method comprises the preparation carried out with
reference to the preparation of titanium-containing solid catalyst
component as disclosed in CN1208045: in the presence of one
compound selected from alcohols, phenols, ketones, aldehydes,
ethers, amines, pyridine and esters, a liquid magnesium compound is
contacted with the liquid titanium compound to precipitate a solid
at a low temperature, the temperature of contact is usually at
-70-200.degree. C., preferably -30-130.degree. C., during contact,
a ring-substituted ether-acid ester compounds represented by the
general formula (I)-(V) is added for treatment.
[0071] Another method of the solid catalyst component of the
present invention comprises: a magnesium compound is dissolved in a
solvent system consisting of an organic epoxy compound,
organophosphorus compound and an inert diluent composition to form
a homogeneous solution, which is mixed with the titanium compound
to precipitated a solid in the presence of co-precipitation agent;
the solid is treated with a ring-substituted ether-acid ester
compound represented by the general formula (I)-(V) to allow the
ring-substituted ether-acid ester compound to load on the solid, if
necessary, the thus-obtained product is then treated with titanium
tetrahalide and an inert diluent, wherein the co-precipitating
agent is one of organic acid anhydride, organic acid, ether and
ketone. Among the components, based on per mol of magnesium halide,
organic epoxy compound is 0.2 to 10 mol, organophosphorus compound
is 0.1 to 3 mol, co-precipitation agent is 0.03 to 1.0 mol, halides
and derivatives of transition metal Ti are 0.5 to 150 mol.
[0072] The solid catalyst component of the present invention can
also be prepared by using an inorganic oxide, such as SiO.sub.2,
alumina or the porous resin, which is preloaded with a magnesium
compound as a carrier, and activated by known methods, and then
treating the loaded carrier with an excess of TiCl.sub.4 at a
temperature of about 80-135.degree. C., wherein a ring-substituted
ether-acid ester compounds represented by the general formula
(I)-(V) is added during treatment.
[0073] The above reactions result in the formation of magnesium
halide in an active form (normal crystalline magnesium halide has a
regular structure, and can only load a small amount of Ti, thus
having low activity. To prepare high activity loaded catalyst,
magnesium halide must undergo activating treatment. The activating
treatment includes using physical and/or chemical methods to turn
the magnesium halide into microcrystalline, such that the active
centers are located on the surface, edges and defects of magnesium
halide. The treated magnesium halide microcrystalline suitable for
loading Ti is considered "active magnesium halide"). In addition to
these reactions, there are other well known methods in the
literature which start with a compound different from the magnesium
halide to form magnesium halide in an active form.
[0074] In any preparation methods, the ring-substituted ether-acid
ester compounds represented by the general formula (I)-(V) can be
directly added or obtained through an optional manner, for example,
by use of appropriate precursors to prepare in situ, the
appropriate precursors can complete the conversion in the presence
of suitable electron donor compounds, for example, by
esterification, transesterification etc. known chemical reactions.
Typically, MgCl.sub.2 and ring-substituted ether-acid ester
compounds represented by the general formula (I)-(V) are used in
the molar ratio of 0.01-5, preferably 0.05-2.0.

olefin CH.sub.2.dbd.CHR (co)polymerization, wherein the olefin is
ethylene, propylene, 1-butene, 4-methyl-1-pentene, 1-hexene or

[0084] In order to use the catalysts of the present invention for

can be used for both homo-polymerization and co-polymerization.
Typically, the molar ratio of component b to component a is 1-1000

[0085] The addition order of the components is arbitrary.
Preferably, component b is firstly added to the polymerization

since the oxygen of the ether bond and the ester bond has a strong
coordination effect and is relatively stable during the preparation
of the catalyst, therefore playing an positive and effective role
in the activity and isotacticity of the catalysts. And the same
compound containing both ether bond and ester bond can have the
advantages of two different functional groups and play a positive
role especially in the regulation of the catalyst activity and
control of polymer structure.
[0091] The specific ring-substituted structure of the compounds of
the present invention has a steric effect and can dictate the
stereo-configuration of ether and ester functional groups, thus
having a positive effect in the formation of the catalyst active
sites and improvement of the stereospecificity of the catalyst.
[0092] The present inventors have found in experiments that, when
these compounds are used as an electron donor to prepare a
Ziegler-Natta catalyst component, the catalyst component has an
excellent activity and a polymer product having a high isotacticity
can be obtained. The compounds of the invention are applied to
several most representative Ziegler-Natta catalyst preparation
systems including magnesium ethylate system, magnesium chloride
alcoholate system and magnesium chloride dissolution and
precipitation system and other major systems, respectively, the
resulting catalysts have a high compound content, indicating that
the compounds have good coordination performance and stability; the
resulting catalysts are generally higher in activity than the
catalysts prepared using traditional aromatic diester electron
donor under the same conditions, and have a high
stereospecificity.
