Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim 49 words
A process for polymerizing 1-olefins, which process comprises contacting 1-olefin monomer with a catalytically efffective amount of a catalyst composition comprising the ion exchange product of chromium ions with a crystalline aluminosilicate zeolite having a Constraint Index of at least about 1, said catalyst composition being activated by calcination.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 49 words
A process for polymerizing 1-olefins, which process comprises contacting 1-olefin monomer with a catalytically efffective amount of a catalyst composition comprising the ion exchange product of chromium ions with a crystalline aluminosilicate zeolite having a Constraint Index of at least about 1, said catalyst composition being activated by calcination.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 34 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein said zeolite has a silica of alumina molar ratio of at least about 12 and a Constraint Index within the approximate range of about 1 to 12.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 20 words
A process according to claim 2 wherein said zeolite is selected from ZSM-5, ZSM-11, ZSM-12, ZSM-23, ZSM-35, ZSM-38 and ZSM-48.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 14 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein said composition further comprises a catalyst binder.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 11 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein said zeolite is ZSM-5.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 12 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein said olefin monomer is ethylene.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 29 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein said polymerization reaction conditions include a temperature from about 30° to 200° C. and a pressure from about 0 to 1000 psig.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 27 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein the polymerization reaction is conducted with reactants in the liquid phase and in the presence of an inert organic solvent.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 19 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein the polymerization reaction is conducted with the reactants in the vapor phase.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 21 words
A process according to claim 9 wherein the vapor phase polymerization reaction is conducted with the catalyst in a fluidized bed.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 18 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein said zeolite is selected from Zeolite T, Zeolite W and ZSM-34.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 11 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein said zeolite is ZSM-34.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim 16 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein said catalyst further comprises a binder for said zeolite.
