Abstract
Abstract The invention relates to a process for preparing alkylaluminoxanes immobilized on inert support materials from alkylaluminum compounds and water, which is characterized in that the reactants are metered with the gas stream into a fluidized-bed reactor and the reaction product is fixed on the support directly from the gas phase.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim
99 words
A process for preparing one or more alkylaluminoxanes immobilized on solid, particulate inert support material from one or more alkylaluminum compounds and water, comprising metering said one or more alkylaluminum compounds in one or more atomized or gaseous feed streams into a fluidized bed reactor containing therewithin said solid, particulate inert support material while maintaining said support material under fluidizing conditions with an inert gas stream, and providing water in said reactor, whereby said one or more alkylaluminum compounds and water react and form said one or more alkylaluminoxanes on said support material directly in said inert gas stream.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
99 words
A process for preparing one or more alkylaluminoxanes immobilized on solid, particulate inert support material from one or more alkylaluminum compounds and water, comprising metering said one or more alkylaluminum compounds in one or more atomized or gaseous feed streams into a fluidized bed reactor containing therewithin said solid, particulate inert support material while maintaining said support material under fluidizing conditions with an inert gas stream, and providing water in said reactor, whereby said one or more alkylaluminum compounds and water react and form said one or more alkylaluminoxanes on said support material directly in said inert gas stream.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
24 words
A process according to claim 1, characterized in that said water and said one or more alkylaluminum compounds are metered directly into the reactor.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
32 words
A process according to claim 1, characterized in that said water and said one or more alkylaluminum compounds are provided in a molar ratio of water:alkylaluminum compounds, of from 0.5:1 to 1.3:1.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
15 words
A process according to claim 1, characterized in that the alkylaluminum compound used is trimethylalumimum.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
58 words
A process according to claim 1, characterized in that the support material is particles selected from the group consisting of Al 2 O 3 , MgO, SiO 2 and mixtures thereof and having particle sizes of 1-300 microns, surface areas of 10-1000 m 2 /g, pore volumes of 0.5-3 cm 3 and water contents of 0-15% by weight.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
96 words
A composition of matter which is one or more alkylaluminoxanes immobilized on solid, particulate inert support material prepared by a process comprising metering one or more alkylaluminum compounds in one or more atomized or gaseous feed streams into a fluidized bed reactor containing therewith a solid, particulate inert support material while maintaining said support material under fluidizing conditions with an inert gas stream, and providing water in said reactor, whereby said one or more alkylaluminum compounds and water react and form said one or more alkylaluminoxanes on said support material directly in said inert gas stream.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
96 words
A composition of matter which is one or more alkylaluminoxanes immobilized on solid, particulate inert support material prepared by a process comprising metering one or more alkylaluminum compounds in one or more atomized or gaseous feed streams into a fluidized bed reactor containing therewith a solid, particulate inert support material while maintaining said support material under fluidizing conditions with an inert gas stream, and providing water in said reactor, whereby said one or more alkylaluminum compounds and water react and form said one or more alkylaluminoxanes on said support material directly in said inert gas stream.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
28 words
A composition of matter as claimed in claim 6, characterized in that 5-40% by weight of aluminum in the form of aluminoxanes is fixed on the support material.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
20 words
A process according to claim 1, characterized in that the reactor is maintained at a pressure of from 1-20 bar.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
18 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein the water is provided as surface hydration on the support material.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
19 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein the water is provided by feeding a stream thereof into said reactor.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
16 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein said process is carried out free of any solvents.
