Covalent Organic Framework-Supported Metallocene for Ethylene Polymerization.

The loading of homogeneous catalysts with support can dramatically improve their performance in olefin polymerization. However, the challenge lies in the development of supported catalysts with well-defined pore structures and good compatibility to achieve high catalytic activity and product performance. Herein, we report the use of an emergent class of porous material-covalent organic framework material (COF) as a carrier to support metallocene catalyst-Cp ZrCl for ethylene polymerization.

Combination of an Asphalt Stabilizer and a Cellulose-Chitosan Composite Aerogel Used for the Separation of Oil-Water Mixtures Containing Asphalt.

In this paper, cellulose chitosan composite aerogels were prepared through sol-gel and freeze-drying processes. The porous morphology of the aerogels was controlled by adjusting the cellulose concentration. Within a certain range, as the concentration of cellulose increases, the pore diameter of the composite aerogel becomes smaller and the pore structure becomes denser.
