“…More importantly, though grouped into the traditional catalyst category, the latter family of catalysts is still constantly improving itself on all-round catalytic performance to meet the ever-growing consumer demands for PP properties by, for example, innovating on the electron donor (both internal and external) technology. − MgCl 2 /TiCl 4 containing 9,9-bis(methoxymethyl)fluorine (BMMF) as the internal electron donor is a mere example of the latest generation (fifth-generation) Ziegler–Natta catalysts, which has shown a set of exceptionally good catalytic properties for propylene polymerization including, but not limited to, high catalyst activity, high hydrogen response, and high comonomer (ethylene and higher α-olefins) incorporation rate and distribution homogeneity. − Unfortunately, for all the prevailingness and resilience of Ziegler–Natta catalysts in the PP industry, previously there have been no suitable chemistries for them to synthesize LCB-PP. The otherwise effective nonconjugated α,ω-diolefin/propylene copolymerization chemistry for both metallocene and nonmetallocene catalysts becomes dubious when it comes to Ziegler–Natta catalysts. , The task of industrial production of LCB-PP resins has to a great extent remained pending, not least with Ziegler–Natta catalysts.…”
