Notizen:
Bis(triphenylsilyl) chromate is an active catalyst for ethylene polymerization without further treatment or additives. Catalytic activity is markedly increased when the compound is deposited on silica-alumina and is further increased if it is deposited on silica and then treated with an aluminum alkyl. Polymer molecular weight can be controlled by reaction temperature, hydrogen addition, support type, and reducing agent structure to give polymers ranging in melt index from essentially zero to 〉 100. In the supported catalysts the bis(triphenylsilyl) chromate appears to be bound to the support and to undergo a reduction step either by reaction with ethylene or with aluminum alkyl prior to polymerization. The active site is envisioned as chromium alkyl, bound to the support, with propagation occurring by insertion of the monomer into a Cr—C bond. Chain termination is by chain transfer to monomer.
