Abstract:ABSTRACT31 complexes of bis -(benzimidazole, benzothiazole and benzoxazole) compounds with Ti (IV) metal centers were synthesized, characterized, activated with methylalumoxane (MAO) and then tested for catalytic ethylene polymerization. The activities of the various catalysts were found to be functions of the hetero atoms in the ligand frameworks. The highest activity was obtained with 39 / MAO (573 kg PE / mol cat. h). The produced polyethylenes showed high molecular weights (up to 1.5 × 10 6 g/mol) and broa… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
