The Effect of Titanium Tetra-Butoxide Catalyst on the Olefin Polymerization.

ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study was to assess the ability of titanium Ti(IV) alkyloxy compounds supported by organic polymer polyvinyl chloride (PVC) to polymerize ethylene by feeding triethylaluminium (TEA) as a cocatalyst. Additionally, the impacts of the molar ratio of [Al]/[Ti] on the catalytic activities in ethylene's polymerization and of the comonomer through utilization of diverse quantities of comonomers on a similar or identical activity were studied. The optimal molar ratio of [Al]/[Ti] was 773:1, and the prepared catalyst had an initial activity of up to 2.3 kg PE/mol Ti. h. when the copolymer was incorporated with 64 mmol of 1-octene. The average molecular weight (Mw) of the copolymer produced with the catalysts was between 97 kg/mol and 326 kg/mol. A significant decrease in the Mw
