Organic—inorganic hybrid(SAV)supported zirconocene was synthesized and its catalysis on ethylene polymerization was examined.The SAV was synthesized by eopolymerization of 4-vinylpyridine with vinyl silica monomer(SA)
which was modified by reacting silica with allyltrimethoxysilane(APS).After treated by MAO.the SAV was reacted with Cp2ZrCl2 to form organic—inorganic hybrid supported metallocene.The chemical structure and the composition of SA and SAV have been characterized by sdid—state13C-NMR
XPS
and elemental analysis (EA).The SAV supported zirconocene catalyst was effective in ethylene polymerization at a relatively low MAO level (A1/Zr=600)giving higher activity than that supported by SiO2.
