The morphology of the growing polymer particles is important in olefin polymerisation on
supported catalysts. It has a significant impact on the rate of mass and energy transport, and …

Different approaches to modeling the gas phase polymerization of ethylene that have been
considered in the literature are reviewed. It is shown that while simple, well‐mixed models …

Efficient fragmentation of catalyst particles during the polymerization of olefins is a
necessary process to maintain catalyst activity and obtain discrete polymer particles with …

Ziegler-type catalysts are the grand old workhorse of the polyolefin industry, yet their
hierarchically complex nature complicates polymerization activity–catalyst structure …

A commercial SiO2 modified by the addition of a TiO2 layer on its surface and pore walls
offers a support for metallocene‐based ethylene polymerization catalysts with a 35 …

Abstract A MgCl 2-based Ziegler–Natta catalyst was characterized using X-ray diffraction
(XRD) patterns, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy …

The structural, vibrational, and electronic properties of silica-supported Ziegler–Natta
catalysts industrially relevant for polyethylene production were investigated in detail by …

The kinetic behaviors of ethylene and propylene polymerizations with the same MgCl2-
supported Ziegler–Natta (Z–N) catalyst containing an internal electron donor were …

Abstract The Sanchez–Lacombe model is used to investigate the multiphase and
multicomponent thermodynamic equilibrium during ethylene polymerization and ethylene/1 …

Polyolefins are the largest produced plastics in the world, wherein continuous stirred tank
reactors and fluidized bed reactors are traditionally employed for commercial production …
