Definitions

  • This invention relates to an ionic catalytic process for the production of poly- -olefin resins which process permits improved control over tacticity, molecular weight and molecular weight distribution.
  • Such poly- ⁇ -olefins are produced to the desired tactic configurations by polymerization of ⁇ -olefin monomers in the presence of a catalyst system comprising an ionic reaction product of a cyclopentadienyl Group 4 metal compound (hereafter a "metallocene”) of specific structure and an activator compound comprising a cation which is capable of reacting with a non-cyclopentadienyl ligand of the metallocene and an anion which is compatible with and non-coordinating to the metallocene cation generated upon reaction of the metallocene with said activator compound.
  • a catalyst system comprising an ionic reaction product of a cyclopentadienyl Group 4 metal compound (hereafter a "metallocene”) of specific structure
  • the catalyst system can be tailored to the production of the desired wight average molecular weight (M w ) poly- -olefins with end group functionalization and select tacticity type and level such as isotactic, syndiotactic or hemiisotactic configurations.
  • M w wight average molecular weight
  • Polymers comprised of ⁇ -olefin monomers have hydrocarbyl groups pendent from the polymer backbone chain. Relative to the polymer backbone chain, the pendent hydrocarbyl groups may be arranged in different stereochemical configurations which are denominated as atactic, isotactic, or syndiotactic pendent group configuration.
  • the degree and type of tacticity of a polyolefin molecule is a critical determinant of the physical properties which a resin composed of such polymer molecules will exhibit.
  • the weight average molecular weight (M w ) of a poly- ⁇ -olefin is an important physical property determinant of the practical uses to which such polymer can be put.
  • the M w of such a resin must generally be in excess of 100,000.
  • the poly- -olefin resin must generally have a high degree of crystallinity.
  • the degree of crystallinity which a poly- ⁇ -olefin is capable of obtaining is, in major part, determined by the stereochemical regularity of the hydrocarbyl groups which are pendent to the polymer molecule backbone, i.e., the tacticity of the polymer.
  • tacticity Five types have been described in poly- ⁇ -olefins: atactic, normal isotactic, isotactic stereoblock, syndiotactic, and hemiisotactic. Although all of these tacticity configurations have been primarily demonstrated in the case of polypropylene, in theory each is equally possible for polymer comprised of any ⁇ -olefin, cyclic olefin or internal olefin.
  • the final resin properties and its suitability for particular applications depend on the type of tacticity, (stereoregularity) the melting point, the average molecular weight, the molecular weight distribution, the type and level of monomer and comonomer, the sequence distribution, and the presence or absence of head or end group functionality.
  • the catalyst system by which such a stereoregular poly- ⁇ -olefin resin is to be produced should, desirably, be versatile in terms of M w , MWD, tacticity type and level, and comonomer choice. Further, the catalyst system should be capable of producing these polymers with or without head and/or end group functionality, such as olefinic unsaturation.
  • Such catalyst system must be capable, as a commercially practical constraint, of producing such resins at an acceptable production rate.
  • the catalyst system should be one which, at its productivity rate, provides a resin product which does not require a subsequent treatment to remove catalyst residue to a level which is acceptable for the resin in the end use application desired.
  • an important feature of a commercial catalyst system is its adaptability to a variety of processes and conditions.
  • Conventional titanium based Ziegler-Natta catalysts for the preparation of isotactic polymers are well known in the art. These commercial catalysts are well suited for the production of highly crystalline, high molecular weight materials. The systems are, however, limited in terms of molecular weight, molecular weight distribution, and tacticity control. The fact that the conventional catalysts contain several types of active sites further limits their ability to control the composition distribution in copolymerization.
  • U.S. Patent No. 4,794,096 discloses a chiral, stereorigid metallocene catalyst which is activated by an alumoxane cocatalyst which is reported to polymerize olefins to isotactic polyolefin forms.
  • Alumoxane cocatalyzed metallocene structures which have been reported to polymerize stereoregularly are the ethylene-bridged bis(tetrahydroindenyl) titanium and -zirconium (IV) catalyst. Wild et al, in J. Organomet. Chem.
  • metallocene-alumoxane produced isotactic poly- ⁇ -olefin resins generally have a higher than desired catalyst residue content.
  • Syndiotactic polyolefins were first disclosed by Natta et al. in U.S. Patent No. 3,258,455. As reported, Natta obtained syndiotactic polypropylene by using a catalyst prepared from titanium trichloride and diethyl aluminum monochloride. A later patent to Natta et al., U.S. Patent No. 3,305,538, discloses the use of vanadium triacetylacetonate or halogenated vanadium compounds in combinations with organic aluminum compounds for production of syndiotactic polypropylene.
  • U.S. Patent No. 4,892,851 describes catalyst systems consisting of a bridged metallocene having at least two differently substituted cyclopentadienyl ring ligands which, when cocatalyzed with an alumoxane, is stated to be capable of production of syndiotactic polypropylene. Again, in commercial production to obtain a sufficient productivity level with such catalyst system, the content of alumoxane is undesirably high and consequently the catalyst residue in the resin so produced is undesirable.
  • Ionically activated catalyst systems are becoming more desirable to minimize or avoid difficulties encountered with alumoxane activated systems.
  • the first of various publications regarding ionic activators was by Turner et al. in EPA 277,004 and EPA 277,003.
  • EPA 277,004 and 277,003 describe bis- cylopentadienyl metallocene catalyts for the production of homo-or co ⁇ polymers of polyolefins, including polypropylene.
  • PCT application WO 92/05208 describes bis-cyclopentadienyl, ionically activated moieties useful for the production of syndiotactic polypropylene.
  • Dow Corporation has several publications which describe mono-cyclopentadienyl, ionically activated moieties useful for the production of polyolefins, however the teachings of the publications are to polyethylene, not stereoregular polypropylene or polymers having stereoregular characteristics.
  • the invention comprises a highly versatile process and catalyst system for the production of stereoregular polyolefins, particularly useful for the production of controlled tacticity poly- ⁇ -olefins with variable molecular weight, molecular weight distribution, stereoregularity and end group functionalization.
  • the process comprises contacting ⁇ -olefin monomer and comonomers in a suitable solvent at a temperature of from about -10° C to about 300° C with an ionic catalyst to produce a polymer.
  • the ionic catalyst comprises a cationic cyclopentadienyl derivative of the Group 4 metals, said derivatives containing at least one cyclopentadienyl (Cp) ligand, electrochemically balanced by one or more non-coordinating anions.
  • the cyclopentadienyl Group 4 metal component (hereafter referred to as a "metallocene”) selected for the ionic catalyst is a chiral racemic compound
  • a poly- ⁇ - olefin which is predominantly of an isotactic stereochemical configuration
  • the metallocene selected for the ionic catalyst is a bridged stereorigid compound composed of one Cp ligand and a heteroatom ligand, there may also be produced a poly- ⁇ -olefin which is predominantly of the syndiotactic stereochemical configuration.
  • the ionic catalyst system of this invention derivated from a particular metallocene complex will produce a polymer having the same type of tacticity which would be produced using methylalumoxane as the activating reagent.
  • the ionic catalyst system allows new levels of control of the polymer properties (M w , MWD, tacticity level, end groups, comonomer content, etc.) for a single metallocene precursor by use of various non-coordinating anions as well as by the addition of third components such as Lewis bases and chiral Lewis bases. It has been discovered that the structure of the non- coordinating anion in the ionic catalyst species has a dramatic effect on the activity, molecular weight, comonomer incorporation, and end group unsaturation.
  • This versatility is important in the use of metallocene catalysts to produce a broad family of polyolefins (e.g., PE, LLDPE, EP, PP etc.) but it is particularly important for the production of tacticity controlled poly- ⁇ -olefins (e.g., syndiotactic, isotactic) because 1) the preparation of new bridged metallocene structures is synthetically difficult 2) adjusting process parameters such as temperature or monomer concentration to adjust the molecular weight of the product also affects the level of tacticity and the melting point, and 3) use of chain transfer agents such as H2 to lower the molecular weight causes loss of end-group unsaturation which is a desirable and unique feature of poly- ⁇ -olefins produced using metallocene-based catalysts.
  • tacticity controlled poly- ⁇ -olefins e.g., syndiotactic, isotactic
  • Advantages of employing monocyclopentadienyl-heteroatom mettallocene catalyst activated by ionic systems include: (1) greater ability than bis (cyclopentadienyl) metalloanes to incoporation larger alpja olefins; (2) the ability to produce high molecular weight polymers, especially when using Ti based metallocenes.
  • the invention provides a method for producing a poly- ⁇ -olefin of a desired stereochemical configuration.
  • the poly- ⁇ -olefin polymers may be produced to a weight average molecular weight (M w ) which suits it to high strength applications, and the so produced resin contains minimal catalyst residue which does not require deashing of the resin to render it suitable for desired end use applications.
  • M w weight average molecular weight

Abstract

Procédé catalytique ionique utilisé pour produire des résines de poly-α-oléfines présentant une configuration stéréochimique, ce procédé permettant de mieux contrôler la tacticité, la masse moléculaire et la distribution de cette dernière. On produit ces poly-α-oléfines ayant les configurations tactiques recherchées en polymérisant des monomères d'α-oléfine en présence d'un système catalyseur comprenant un produit de réaction ionique issu de la réaction d'un composé métallique cyclopentadiényle du groupe 4 (un 'alliage organométallique') possédant une structure spécifique et d'un composé activateur comprenant un cation capable de réagir de manière irréversible avec au moins un ligand non cyclopentadiényle de l'alliage organométallique et un anion qui est compatible et sans coordination avec le cation de l'alliage organométallique produit lors de la réaction de l'alliage organométallique avec ledit composé activateur. En sélectionnant de manière appropriée les composants de l'alliage organométallique et du composé activateur on peut adapter spécifiquement le système catalyseur à la production de polymères présentant une configuration stéréochimique.
