Abstract
Abstract The invention herein is directed toward a method for forming a coating on the surface of a catalyst and includes the steps of dissolving a membrane forming compound in a hdyrocarbon solvent, adding the catalyst to the solvent and agitating to form a mixture and finally drying the mixture to form particles of the catalyst having a coating of the membrane forming compound. Particularly suitable for the polymerization of monoolefins are Ziegler-Natta catalyts which can be coated according to the foregoing method. The compounds forming the coating include the silicone greases obtained by mixing a filler material with a dimethylpolysiloxane fluid.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
78 words
A method for forming a coating on the surface of Ziegler-Natta catalysts for the polymerization of monoolefins comprising the steps of: dissolving a membrane forming compound, selected from the group consisting of silicones, tetraalkyl silicons, silicon alkyl halides and silicon alkyl hydrides, in a hydrocarbon solvent; adding the Ziegler-Natta catalyst to said hydrocarbon solvent and agitating to form a mixture; and, drying said mixture to form particles of the catalyst having a coating of said membrane forming compound.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
78 words
A method for forming a coating on the surface of Ziegler-Natta catalysts for the polymerization of monoolefins comprising the steps of: dissolving a membrane forming compound, selected from the group consisting of silicones, tetraalkyl silicons, silicon alkyl halides and silicon alkyl hydrides, in a hydrocarbon solvent; adding the Ziegler-Natta catalyst to said hydrocarbon solvent and agitating to form a mixture; and, drying said mixture to form particles of the catalyst having a coating of said membrane forming compound.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
37 words
A method as set forth in claim 1, wherein said silicone compound is a silicone grease comprising a dimethylpolysiloxane fluid, having the formula ##STR2## where n is a numeral from 0 to 9; and, a filler material.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
22 words
A method as set forth in claim 2, wherein said hydrocarbon solvent is selected from the group consisting of hexane and heptane.
Claim 5
Independent Claim
27 words
A method as set forth in claims 1 or 2 comprising the additional step of: adding a catalyst support material with the catalyst to said hydrocarbon solvent.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
53 words
A method as set forth in claim 4, comprising the additional step of: mixing a co-catalyst with said coated catalyst, said co-catalyst having the formula R n AlX 3-n ; wherein R is an alkyl having one to about four carbon atoms, X is chlorine or bromine and n is 1 to 3.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
22 words
A method as set forth in claim 5, wherein said support material is a polyolefin particle and said co-catalyst is diethylaluminum chloride.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
40 words
A Ziegler-Natta catalyst for the polymerization of monoolefins the improvement wherein the catalyst particles are provided with a coating comprising a membrane forming compound selected from the group consisting of silicones, tetraalkyl silicons, silicon alkyl halides and silicon alkyl hydrides.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
40 words
A Ziegler-Natta catalyst for the polymerization of monoolefins the improvement wherein the catalyst particles are provided with a coating comprising a membrane forming compound selected from the group consisting of silicones, tetraalkyl silicons, silicon alkyl halides and silicon alkyl hydrides.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
38 words
A Ziegler-Natta catalyst, as set forth in claim 7, wherein said silicone compound is a silicone grease comprising: a dimethylpolysiloxane fluid, having the formula ##STR3## where n is a numeral from 0 to 9; and, a filler material.
