Abstract
The use of a polyethylene-based copolymer with dual functional groups (polyethylene-gr-2-tert-butyl amino ethyl methacrylate) as the support for TiCl4 catalyst in ethylene polymerization was studied. Different methods for treating the support were examined and treatment with BuMgCl was found to be the most effective. With the BuMgCl-modified support, a 12-run Plackett-Burman design was used to screen 11 factors in catalyst preparation. Statistical analysis of the results from this design identified significant factors with the amount of BuMgCl singled out to be the most important one for the four response variables of interest, Mg loading, Ti loading, catalyst activity per gram catalyst, and catalyst activity per gram Ti. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
