Preparation of bimetallic catalyst based on anthracene frameworks and use thereof in olefin high temperature solution polymerization

Abstract

A preparation method of bimetallic catalysts based on anthracene frameworks and use thereof in olefin polymerization is reported. Anthrecene frameworks were introduced, heat resistance of the catalysts is improved, and by changing central metals and configurations of the frameworks, steric and electronic effects of the metal catalysts of this model can be adjusted and controlled conveniently, and polyolefin polymer materials of different structures and different properties can be prepared, the bimetallic catalyst can be used in ethylene homopolymerization for preparation of high density polyethylene, ethylene/1-octene copolymerization for preparation of polyolefin elastomers and ethylene/norbornene copolymerization for preparation of cycloolefin copolymers. The bimetallic catalyst based on anthracene frameworks can be used in olefin high temperature solution polymerization for preparing polyolefin elastomers and cycloolefin copolymers, the polyolefin elastomers obtained have molecular weights as high as MW=890 kg·mol−1, and the cycloolefin copolymers have copolymerization monomer insertion rates as high as 45 mol %.
