Catalyst for stereoregular α-olefin polymerization and process for producing stereoregular α-olefin polymer {Catalyst for stereoregular polymerization of α-olefin and process for producing stereoregular α-olefin polymer}
[2] Mainly stereoregular α-olefin polymers have been conventionally produced using multi-site catalysts such as solid catalysts, but recently single-site obtained using metallocene complexes having a specific structure. It is known that stereoregular α-olefin polymers can also be produced by site catalysts.
[3] For example, a preparation example of a high stereoregular isotactic propylene polymer using a metallocene complex in which two 1 to 3 substituted η 5 -cyclopentadienyl groups are crosslinked (see Japanese Patent No. 2587251, 2627669 specification and 2668732 specification) and the like are known. It has also been reported that syndiotactic propylene polymers are obtained by using isopropylidene (cyclopentadienyl) (fluorenyl) zirconium dichloride or the like with an aluminumoxy compound, which is a Cs symmetric metallocene complex [J: Am. Chem. Soc., 1988, 110, 6255. Also, Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 9-510745 uses (2-phenylindenyl) zirconium dichloride and methylaluminoxane to have stereo isotactic segments and atactic segments in one molecular chain. A method for producing block polypropylene is disclosed.
[4] However, since these known single site catalysts are soluble in the reaction system, when used for polymerization (e.g., slurry polymerization, gas phase polymerization, bulk polymerization, etc.) according to the formation of the α-olefin polymer particles, the resulting α-olefin polymer is hardened. There was a problem in that it could not be taken out or in the continuous polymerization process, the catalyst was scattered together with the fine particles of the α-olefin polymer, and the growth of the polymer may occur in the piping of the subsequent process.
[5] In addition, in the known method of using a single-site catalyst, the method for producing the α-olefin polymer was not sufficiently efficient.
[6] In addition, the stereoregularity of the stereoregular α-olefin polymers obtained using these known single site catalysts is not necessarily high enough, and the stereoregularity of the stereoblock polypropylene obtained according to the above-described method is particularly isotactic. Development of a method for obtaining stereoblock polypropylene having a higher stiffness and higher rigidity in the range of 6-33% pentad fraction has been required.

[190] Specific examples of such isotactic stereoregular propylene polymers include homopolymers of propylene; Random copolymers of propylene with comonomers such as ethylene and / or α-olefins having 4 to 12 carbon atoms in an amount of not losing crystallinity; Or homopolymerization of propylene or copolymerization of propylene with ethylene or an α-olefin having 4 to 12 carbon atoms (this is referred to as "shear polymerization"), and then the α-olefin having 3 to 12 carbon atoms and ethylene in one or multiple stages. Block copolymers etc. which superpose | polymerize (it calls this "post-stage polymerization") are mentioned. The amount that does not lose crystallinity with a random copolymer depends on the type of comonomer, but, for example, in the case of ethylene, the amount of repeating units derived from ethylene in the copolymer is usually 10% by weight or less, 1-butene, or the like. For other α-olefins, the amount of repeating units derived from the α-olefins in the copolymer is usually 30% by weight or less, preferably 10% by weight or less. In the case of shear polymerization in a block copolymer, for example, the polymerization amount of ethylene is usually 10% by weight or less, preferably 3% by weight or less, more preferably 0.5% by weight or less, and the polymerization amount of α-olefin is It is usually 15% by weight or less, preferably 10% by weight or less, and in the case of post-stage polymerization, the polymerization amount of ethylene is usually 20 to 80% by weight, preferably 30 to 50% by weight.
[191] Specific examples of the monomer combination constituting the copolymer include a combination of propylene and ethylene, propylene and 1-butene, propylene and 1-hexene, but the present invention is not limited thereto.
[192] In addition, an isotactic pentad fraction is used as a measure of isotactic stereoregularity.
[193] The isotactic pentad fraction referred to herein is a crystalline polypropylene measured using the method disclosed in A. Zambelli et al., Macromolecules, 6, 925 (1973), i.e. 13 C-NMR. The isotactic chain in the pentad unit in a molecular chain, in other words, it is the fraction of the propylene monomer unit in the center of the chain which meso bonded five consecutive propylene monomer units. However, the attribution of an NMR absorption peak is performed based on the literature published after that (Macromolecules, 8, 687 (1975)). The isotactic pentad fraction may be abbreviated as "mmmm%". The upper limit of theoretical mmmm% is 1.000.
[194] In the present invention, an isotactic stereoregular α-olefin polymer having a mmmm% of 0.800 or more and more preferably an isotactic stereoregular α-olefin polymer of 0.900 or more (more preferably 0.940 or more, even more preferably 0.955 or more) It can be manufactured highly.
[195] In addition, in the present invention, by selecting the transition metal compound (B) component of the catalyst as described above, it is possible to produce stereo block poly (α-olefin) having a higher isotactic pentad fraction than the conventional one. . As alpha-olefin, it is as having mentioned above, but propylene is especially preferable.
[196] In addition, a stereo block poly (α-olefin) has isotactic and atactic segments in one molecular chain, and when viewed as a whole, it shows relatively low stereoregularity (isotactic pentad fraction) and high melting point. It is a polymer and is a polymer different from the conventional isotactic crystalline poly (α-olefin) and atactic poly (α-olefin).
[197] According to the present invention, stereoblock poly (α-olefin) having higher stereoregularity expressed in isotactic pentad fraction and higher melting point can also be obtained.
[198] The polymerization method is also not particularly limited, and gas phase polymerization in a known gas monomer, solution polymerization using a solvent, slurry polymerization, and the like are possible. As a solvent used for solution polymerization or slurry polymerization, aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents, such as butane, pentane, heptane, and octane, aromatic hydrocarbon solvents, such as benzene and toluene, or halogenated hydrocarbon solvents, such as methylene chloride, are mentioned, or olefin itself is added to a solvent It is also possible to use (bulk polymerization). Among them, it is particularly suitably applied to polymerization (for example, slurry polymerization, gas phase polymerization, bulk polymerization, etc.) involving the formation of the α-olefin polymer particles. The polymerization type may be any of batch polymerization and continuous polymerization, and the polymerization may be performed by dividing the polymerization into two or more stages having different reaction conditions.
[199] The polymerization time is generally appropriately determined depending on the kind of the olefin polymer desired and the reaction apparatus, but can be in the range of 1 minute to 20 hours.
[200] The slurry polymerization may be carried out in accordance with a known slurry polymerization method or polymerization conditions, but is not limited thereto. Preferred polymerization methods in the slurry method include a continuous reactor in which monomers (and comonomers), feeds, diluents and the like are continuously added as necessary and the polymer product is taken out continuously or at least periodically. As a reactor, the method of using a loop reactor, the method of using a plurality of stirring reactors in which a different reactor or different reaction conditions are used in series or in parallel, or combined them etc. can be illustrated.
[201] As the diluent, for example, an inert diluent (medium) such as paraffin, cycloparaffin or aromatic hydrocarbon can be used. The temperature of the polymerization reactor or reaction zone may usually be in the range of about 0 to about 150 ° C, preferably 30 to 100 ° C. The pressure can typically be varied from about 0.1 to about 10 MPa, preferably 0.5 to 5 MPa. Pressure may be taken to keep the catalyst in suspension, to keep the medium and at least some monomers and comonomers in the liquid phase and to contact the monomers and comonomers. Thus, the medium, temperature and pressure may be chosen such that the α-olefin polymer is produced as solid particles and recovered in this form.
[202] The gas phase polymerization may be carried out according to known gas phase polymerization methods and polymerization conditions, but is not necessarily limited thereto. As the gas phase polymerization reactor, a fluidized bed reactor, preferably a fluidized bed reactor having an enlarged portion is used. There is no problem in the reaction apparatus provided with the stirring blade in the reaction tank.
[203] As a method of supplying each component to a polymerization tank, methods, such as supplying in the absence of moisture using inert gas, such as nitrogen and argon, hydrogen, etc., or dissolving or diluting in a solvent and supplying it in the form of a solution or a slurry, can be used.
[204] Each catalyst component can be supplied separately and can be supplied by contacting any component in advance in any order.
[205] As polymerization conditions the temperature is in the range below the temperature at which the resulting polymer melts, preferably 0 to 150 ° C, particularly preferably 30 to 100 ° C. In addition, hydrogen may be added as a molecular weight regulator for the purpose of controlling the melt flowability of the final product. In addition, you may make an inert gas coexist in mixed gas in superposition | polymerization.
[206] The molecular weight of the α-olefin polymer can be controlled by various known means such as adjusting the temperature of the reaction zone, introducing hydrogen, and the like.
[207] Each catalyst component, monomer (and comonomer) can be added to the reactor or reaction zone in any order by any known method. For example, the method of adding each catalyst component, monomer (and comonomer) to a reaction zone simultaneously, the method of adding in order, etc. can be used. If desired, each catalyst component may be precontacted in an inert atmosphere prior to contacting the monomer (and comonomer).
[208] In addition, especially when using a transition metal compound of the formula (I), a higher molecular weight α-olefin polymer can also be prepared, and preferably a weight average molecular weight of 350,000 to 600,000 (more preferably 380,000 to 600,000) , More preferably 400,000 to 600,000).

[227] (Wherein D 50% is the polymer particle diameter of 50% cumulative volume fraction and D 15.87% represents the polymer particle diameter of 15.87% cumulative volume fraction).
