Abstract

A process is disclosed for producing homopolymers of propylene or copolymers of propylene with other olefins or their mixtures.
Polymerisation is carried out under pressures from 100 to 3000 bars and at temperatures from 100 to 330· C, using as catalyst a metallocene catalyst system.

Description

2 1 1 S 7 1 1 o.z. 0050/42666 --Preparation of polypropylene under hiqh pressure The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of homopolymers of propylene or copoly-mers of propylene with other olefins or mixtures thereof.
s Processes for the preparation of homo- and/or copolymers of propylene at low pressures and with the use of Ziegler catalyst systems are disclosed in, for ex-ample, EP-A 351 392 and EP-A 321 852. However, hetero-geneous systems are present, the productivities are unsatisfactory and the choice of comonomers is lLmited.
It is an object of the present invention to proYide a process for the preparation of homo- and/or copolymers of propylene which does not have the stated disadvantages.
We have found that this o~ject is achieved by a process for the preparation of homopolymers of propylene or copolymers of propylene with other olefins or mixture~
thereof, wherein polymerization is carried out at from 100 to 3000 bar and at from 100 to 330C and the catalyst used is a metallocene catalyst system.
These processes gi~e linear homopolymers with propylene or linear copolymers which have short chain branche~
Cyclic olefins of 3 to 12, preferably 4 to 8, carbon atom~, dienes, in particular ~ dienes of 4 to 10 carbon atoms, 3uch as hexa-1,5-diene, and olefins of 2 to 10 carbon atom~, preferably ethylene, butenes and hexenes~ have proven suitable as olsfins which can be copolymerized with propylene, the ~-olefins being par-ticularly preferred. These olefins may also have aryl or hetero element substituents, such as styrene or un-saturated substituted silanes.
As a rule, these comonomers are used in amounts of from 0.1 to 99.9~ preferably from 1 to 99 t ~ by weight, based on the amount of propylene.
The catalysts used are metallocene catalyst systems which contain, among the actiYe components, a 21~8~11 - 2 - o.Z. 0050/42666 complex of metals of subgroups IV and V of the Periodic Table, in particular of titanium, zirconium, hafnium, vanadium, niobium or tantalum. Preferably used complexes are those in which the metal atom is bonded via ~ ~onds to unsaturated cyclic hydrocarbon atoms, for example cyclopentadienyl, fluorenyl or indenyl group3. Further-more, in the preferably used complexes, the metal atom may also be bonded to further ligand~, in particular to fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine or to Cl-C1O-alkyl, for example methyl, ethyl, propyl or butyl. Particularly suitable complexes contain in particular chlorine.
Preferred metallocene catalyst systems contain, as active components, a) a metallocene complex of the general formula I

Complexes of this type can be synthesized by conventional methods, the reaction of ~h~ correspondingly substituted, cyclic hydrocarbon anions with halides of titanium, zirconium, hafnium, vanadium, niobium or tantalum being preferred. Examples of corresponding preparation processes are described in, inter alia, Journal of Organometallic Chemistry 369 (1989) r 359~370 .
The metallocene co~plexe-~ may also be present in cationic form, a~ described in EP-A 277 003 and EP-A 277 ~:
004. `:
In addition to the complexes, the metallocene catalyst sy~tem~ g~nerally al~o contain oligomeric alumoxane compounds of th~ general formula II or III, :~
where R17 is preferably methyl or ethyl and m is from~10 to 25.
20 ~ The preparation of these oligomeric alumoxane compounds is usually carried out by reacting a solution ~-of trialkylaluminum with water and i~ described in, inter alia, EP-A 284 708 and US-A 4,794,096. ::
As a rule, the oligomeric alumoxane compounds obtained are in the form of mix~ur~s of both linear and cyclic chain moleculec of different lengths, ~o that m i~
to be regarded as an average value. The alumoxane co~pounds may also b~ present a~ a mixture with other m~t~l alkyls, preferably with alkylaluminum~
In the novel proce~, it has proven advantageous to use the complex of metal~ of subgxoups IV and V of the Periodic Tabl~ and the oligomeric alumoxane compounds in amounts such that the atomic ratio of aluminum from the oligomeric alumoxane compound to the transition metal from the complex of metals of subgroups IV and V of the Periodic Table is from lO : 1 to lO~ : 1, in particular 21 ~ ~' 71 i - 8 - O.Z. 0050/42666 from 10 : l to lO~
For the novel process, the catalysts are general-ly used in an amount of from 10~1 to 10-9, preferably from 10-2 to lO-s, mol/l of metal.
The process can be carried out in the reactors usually used for high pressure polymerization, for example in stirred autoclaves.
It has proven advantageous first to mix the complex of metals of subgroups IV and V of the Periodic Table with the oligomeric alumoxane compound before the polymerization, with the result that an activated catal yst sy~tem is formed. The duration of the activation step i~ u~ually from 1 to 120 minutes, preferably from 10 to 100 minutes. Mixing is preferably carried out in such a way that the complex is brought into contact with the solution of the oligom~ric alumoxane compound in an inert solven~`, for example in benzene, toluene, hexane, h~ptane or a mixture thereof, at from 0 to 50C. `~
The novel process can b~ carried out by a method in which the solution of complexes and oligomeric alumoxane compounds are mixed upstream of the reactor and/or are fed .into the reactor at a plu2ality sf points.
The polymerization can be carried out batchw.ise or continuou ly. Pressures of from 100 to 3,500 bar, preferably from 500 to 3,000, in particular from 1,800 to 3,000, bar and temperatures of from 100 ~o 330C, prefer-ably from 120 to 300C, in parti ular from 120 to 2509C, ar~ employed. Th~ residence tLme~ are from 20 to 240, preferably from 30 to 120, seconds.
Th~ e~ential advantage~ of ~he novel process are that high productivities are achieved~ the choice of comonomer~ i~ very large and high conversions arQ reached in con~unction with short residence tLmes and high .
molecular w~ights.
