Abstract

New non-metallocene polymerization catalysts derived from 1,2-bis(3,5-di-tert-butyl-2-hydroxiphenyl)oxamide (L) and transition metals (Ti, Zr, Hf) were synthesized and tested for ethylene polymerization reactions. The syntheses were carried out from various bases and solvents (triethylamine/toluene, NaH/THF and NaOH/methanol). The zirconium compound (5) showed the highest catalytic activity (the polyethylene molecular weight was 98,000 Da) and polydispersity index (1.8-2.0) when n-heptane was used as solvent. In terms of Tm and crystallinity, this catalyst produced the highest density linear polyethylene. © 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
