Title:
DUAL- OR MULTI-HEADED CHAIN SHUTTLING AGENTS AND THEIR USE FOR THE PREPARATION OF BLOCK COPOLYMERS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/016991
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
This disclosure relates to olefin polymerization catalysts and compositions, their manufacture, and the production of polyolefins using specific catalyst compositions, including the use of chain-shuttling agents in the olefin polymerization process. Specifically, this disclosure provides for dual-headed and multi-headed chain shuttling agents (CSAs or MSAs) and for their use in preparing blocky copolymers. By controlling the ratio of dual-headed and multi-headed CSA sites to mono-headed CSA sites, a blocky copolymer can be provided having properties such as a narrow molecular weight distribution and/or improved melt properties.
