Polymer Syntheses

Polymerization catalyst and process characterization

  • ​polymerization kinetics from all homopolymerization experiments and all modes (gas, bulk and suspension) could be evaluated
  • profiles of electrostatic charge generated during gas phase polymerizations could be measured
  • special technique of 2nd catalyst injection into polymer bed under the gas-phase conditions could be performed for the investigation of polymer particle morphology and fines formation 
  • effects of different polymerization conditions, monomer impurities (“catalyst poisons”) and additives could be studied including antistatic agents and “in-situ” stabilization and nucleation techniques
  • evaluation of raw materials used for industrial polyolefin production (monomers, external donors, cocatalysts etc.) by polymerization experiments
