Article Synopsis
  • The study investigated how inhibitory compounds like hydrogen sulfide (HS) and methanol (CHOH) impact the efficiency and characteristics of polymers during the polymerization process using the Ziegler-Natta catalyst.
  • Experimental and computational methods were used to analyze parameters such as molecular weight and melt flow index, revealing that higher HS concentrations significantly decreased molecular weight and affected flow rates.
  • Methanol also reduced molecular weight at concentrations above 60 ppm, increasing fluidity and decreasing xylene solubility, alongside a notable decline in the Ziegler-Natta catalyst's productivity, while computational calculations indicated favorable interactions with these inhibitors.

This research study examined how the use of dimethylformamide (DMF) as an inhibitor affects the propylene polymerization process when using a Ziegler-Natta catalyst. Several experiments were carried out using TiCl/MgCl as a catalyst, aluminum trialkyl as a cocatalyst, and different amounts of DMF. Then, we analyzed how DMF influences other aspects of the process, such as catalyst activity, molecular weight, and the number of branches in the polymer chains obtained, using experimental and computational methods.

Polypropylene synthesis is a critical process in the plastics industry, where control of catalytic activity is essential to ensure the quality and performance of the final product. In this study, the effect of two inhibitors, propanol and arsine, on the properties of synthesized polypropylene was investigated. Experiments were conducted using a conventional catalyst to polymerize propylene, and different concentrations of propanol and arsine were incorporated into the process.
