Highly active self-immobilized FI-Zr catalysts in a PCP framework for ethylene polymerization

Chem Commun (Camb). 2015 Dec 4;51(93):16703-6. doi: 10.1039/c5cc06460k. Epub 2015 Oct 5.

Abstract

A series of zirconium-based porous coordination polymers (PCPs) containing FI catalysts in the frameworks have been developed and studied as catalysts for ethylene polymerization. These PCPs exhibit good catalytic activities and long life times, producing polyethylenes with high molecular weights and bimodal molecular weight distribution in the form of particles.
