Abstract

We investigated the kinetics of ethylene polymerization using a metallocene/MAO/ Al(Et)1.5(OC2H5)1.5 ternary catalytic system at 60–90°C and 600 kPa. Three different unbridged metallocene catalysts were used: (Ind)2ZrCl2 (I), (BenzInd)2ZrCl2 (II), and (Flu)2ZrCl2 (III). We studied the effects of ligand structure, co-catalysis, and the activation energy of the deactivation reaction. Depending on the catalyst concentration, deactivation proceeds as a first-order reaction. In the ternary catalytic system, the half-life is highly dependent on the ligand structure, with the activation energy of deactivation for catalyst I being lower than for catalysts II and III. At 60°C, the half-lives of unbridged metallocenes I and II are slightly lower than that of III. With increasing temperature, the half-lives of II and III decrease similarly, but I deactivates much faster.
