On-Line Analysis Of Polymer Properties For Control Of A Solution Phase Reaction System

View page
US Patent:
20070019191, Jan 25, 2007
Filed:
Jun 23, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/473949
Inventors:
David Marrow - Taylor Lake Village TX, US
Blu Englehorn - Baton Rouge LA, US
David Yahn - Humble TX, US
International Classification:
G01J 3/44
G01N 21/65
US Classification:
356301000
Abstract:
Methods and systems for analysis of the polymerization material of solution polymerization processes are provided. In certain embodiments, the methods and systems subject the polymerization material to Raman spectroscopy analysis. The Raman spectroscopy provides analysis of reaction mixtures and/or product streams in solution polymerization processes. The Raman spectroscopy analysis may include both compositional and characterization analysis of the reaction mixtures and product streams. The spectroscopy results can be used to provide process control feedback to adjust operating parameters of the reactor operations and/or an associated polymerization product handling and finishing processes

Propylene-Based Polymer Compositions Having A High Molecular Weight Tail

View page
US Patent:
20230077569, Mar 16, 2023
Filed:
Feb 12, 2021
Appl. No.:
17/759598
Inventors:
- Baytown TX, US
Ranadip GANGULY - Houston TX, US
Christopher G. BAUCH - Seabrook TX, US
Blu E. ENGLEHORN - Houston TX, US
Xiaodan ZHANG - Houston TX, US
Mark S. CHAHL - Friendswood TX, US
Kevin W. LAWSON - Houston TX, US
Xuejia YAN - Manvel TX, US
Assignee:
ExxonMobil Chemical Patents Inc. - Baytown TX
International Classification:
C08F 210/06
C08L 23/12
Abstract:
Processes for forming a polypropylene composition are provided herein comprising the steps of making a first propylene-based copolymer having a molecular weight distribution between 3 to 8.5, and making a second propylene-based polymer in the presence of the first propylene-based polymer to produce the polypropylene composition having a high molecular weight tail in the amount of between 1.0 wt. % and 10.0 wt. %. The polypropylene compositions produced have a broad molecular weight distribution and high molecular weight tail to provide improved stiffness while retaining toughness.

Methods For Producing Bimodal Polyolefins And Impact Copolymers

US Patent:
20230056312, Feb 23, 2023
Filed:
Jan 7, 2021
Appl. No.:
17/791389
Inventors:
- Baytown TX, US
Christopher G. BAUCH - Seabrook TX, US
Todd S. EDWARDS - League City TX, US
Mark S. CHAHL - Friendswood TX, US
Blu E. ENGLEHORN - Houston TX, US
Khoa TO - Baytown TX, US
Steven L. LAMBERT - Webster TX, US
Assignee:
ExxonMobil Chemical Patents Inc. - Baytown TX
International Classification:
C08F 110/06
C08L 23/14
Abstract:
Provided are methods for producing bimodal polyolefins comprising the steps of contacting α-olefin monomers with a catalyst in slurry polymerization conditions in the presence of zero to minimum hydrogen to produce a high molecular weight polyolefin and contacting additional α-olefin monomers in gas phase polymerization conditions and the high molecular weight polyolefin and the catalyst to produce bimodal polyolefin having high stiffness and broad molecular weight distribution. An additional step of polymerizing the bimodal polyolefin with a comonomer in a second gas phase can provide a bimodal impact copolymer having high stiffness and broad molecular weight distribution. Among the advantages of the present methods, bimodal polyolefins can be produced in a continuous process between a slurry polymerization reactor and a gas phase polymerization reactor without a venting step in between and with minimal hydrogen in the slurry polymerization reactor.

Single-Site Catalyst Polyolefin Polymerization Process

View page
US Patent:
20200024378, Jan 23, 2020
Filed:
Sep 27, 2017
Appl. No.:
16/332864
Inventors:
- Baytown TX, US
Blu E. Englehorn - Houston TX, US
International Classification:
C08F 110/06
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for polymerizing olefins comprising passing a heterogeneous single-site catalyst to a solution or slurry polymerization reactor in the absence of pre-polymerization, wherein the polymerization reactor operates at a temperature of at least 50 C. The heterogeneous single-site catalyst may be suspended and/or dissolved in a solvent selected from the group consisting of oils, aliphatic hydrocarbons and mixtures thereof. Also, the heterogeneous single-site catalyst may be passed to the polymerization reactor at a velocity of greater than 1 m/s or 3 m/s.

US Patent:
20190144573, May 16, 2019
Filed:
Jun 22, 2017
Appl. No.:
16/315830
Inventors:
- Baytown TX, US
Blu E. Englehorn - Houston TX, US
Kevin W. Lawson - Houston TX, US
Todd S. Edwards - League City TX, US
Keith W. Trapp - Kingwood TX, US
International Classification:
C08F 10/06
B01D 53/46
C08F 4/642
Abstract:
A process for reducing the level of hydrogen in certain polymerization effluent and recycle streams containing unreacted propylene monomers and hydrogen by contacting the streams with a hydrogenation catalyst so as to convert at least part of the propylene to the corresponding alkane. The process is particularly applicable to the effluent from a slurry polymerization reactor which has been used to produce a polypropylene homopolymer or copolymer having a first molecular weight and at least part of the effluent is to be supplied to a slurry polymerization reactor to produce a polypropylene homopolymer or copolymer having a second, higher molecular weight.

Method Of Regulating Hydrogen To A Polymerization Reactor

US Patent:
20180237555, Aug 23, 2018
Filed:
Jul 25, 2016
Appl. No.:
15/749818
Inventors:
- Baytown TX, US
Todd S. Edwards - League City TX, US
Daniel L. Bilbao - Houston TX, US
Kevin W. Lawson - Houston TX, US
Blu E. Englehorn - Houston TX, US
International Classification:

C08F 210/16
C08F 4/642
C08F 4/622
C08F 110/06
C08F 2/38
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method of reducing and/or regulating the level of hydrogen in a polymerization reactor comprising contacting a first feed comprising a first amount of hydrogen with a hydrogenation catalyst prior to entering a polymerization reactor to form a second feed; then contacting the second feed having a second amount of hydrogen with monomers and a polymerization catalyst in a polymerization reactor to form a polymer. The first and second feeds may reside in a feed line from one reactor to another, a monomer feed line to the reactor, or in a recycle line to and from the same reactor.
