Abstract
This invention is generally directed toward a supported catalyst system useful for polymerizing olefins. The method for supporting the catalyst of the invention provides for a supported metallocene catalyst formed by vacuum or pressurized impregnation.
Claims18
A process of polymerizing olefins alone or in combination with one or more other olefins, the process comprising polymerizing in the presence of a supported catalyst system formed by the steps of:
- a) introducing a porous inorganic carrier to a vessel having a starting pressure;
- b) depressurizing the vessel;
- c) introducing into the vessel a solution comprising a metallocene catalyst component and an activator while maintaining the depressurized pressure from step (b);
- d) pressurizing the vessel;
- and
- e) recovering the supported catalyst system;
- wherein steps (a) and (b) are performed before step (c).
