Filed:
Aug 18, 1983
Appl. No.:
6/523868
Inventors:
Donald E. Gessell - Ponca City OK
Assignee:
E. I. Du Pont de Nemours and Company - Wilmington DE
International Classification:
C08F 462
C08F 464
C08F 468
US Classification:
502104
Abstract:
A method is provided for preparing hydrocarbon soluble magnesium siloxide supports comprising contacting such supports with sufficient aluminum alkoxide or organic ethers to render the supports hydrocarbon soluble. Thereafter the supports are contacted with a transition metal compound and halogenated to obtain polymerization catalysts.

Filed:
Aug 18, 1983
Appl. No.:
6/523867
Inventors:
Donald E. Gessell - Ponca City OK
Assignee:
E. I. Du Pont de Nemours and Company - Wilmington DE
International Classification:
C08F 402
C08F 464
C08F 468
C08F 462
US Classification:
502110
Abstract:
Catalysts having high efficiency in preparing olefin polymers while controlling molecular weight distribution are disclosed. The catalysts utilize magnesium siloxide supports and the product polymer molecular weight distribution can be controlled by the catalyst preparation.

Composition And Method For Friction Loss Reduction

US Patent:
49527380, Aug 28, 1990
Filed:
Nov 14, 1988
Appl. No.:
7/271474
Inventors:
Donald E. Gessell - Friendswood TX
Paul H. Washecheck - Friendswood TX
Assignee:
Conoco Inc. - Ponca City OK
International Classification:
F17D 116
US Classification:
585 3
Abstract:
Fluid flow friction loss of a hydrocarbon liquid is improved by adding a small amount of a copolymer of divinylbenzene and a linear alpha-olefin or a copolymer of vinyl siloxane and a linear alpha-olefin to the liquid hydrocarbon. A preferred catalyst for producing these materials is also described.

Process For Polymerizing Olefins Employing A Catalyst Prepared From Organomagnesium Compound; Oxygen- Or Nitrogen- Containing Compound; Halide Source; Transition Metal Compound And Reducing Agent

View page
US Patent:
43872000, Jun 7, 1983
Filed:
Mar 22, 1982
Appl. No.:
6/360865
Inventors:
Donald E. Gessell - Ponca City OK
Ronald L. Gibbs - Midland MI
Ricardo Fuentes - Baton Rouge LA
Assignee:
The Dow Chemical Company - Midland MI
International Classification:
C08F 450
US Classification:
526122
Abstract:
A process for polymerizing olefins employing as a catalyst therefor, the reaction product of (A) the reaction product of (1) the reaction product of (a) an alkyl magnesium compound such as dibutylmagnesium, with (b) an oxygen-containing and/or nitrogen-containing compound such as n-propyl alcohol, or isopropylamine, with (2) a halide source such as titanium tetrachloride or silicon tetrachloride; and (B) a transition metal compound such as titanium tetrachloride and (C) a reducing agent such as triisobutylaluminum. The polymers which are produced in the presence of this catalyst and a cocatalyst such as triethylaluminum have a low catalyst support to transition metal ratio and therefore, the catalyst efficiency based on quantity of polymer per quantity of total catalyst is very high resulting in a polymer having good color and very little, if any, corrosion.
