<p>A solution polymerization process for the pre-paration of high molecular weight homopolymers of ethylene and copolymers of ethylene and C3 - C12 alpha-olefins comprises feeding monomer(s), coordination catalyst and inert hydrocarbon solvent to a reactor, polymerizing the monomers at a temperature of up to 320 DEG C and a pressure of less than 25 MPa, and deactivating the catalyst in the solution so obtained. The catlyst is deactivated by sequentially admixing therewith (a) a minor amount of a first deactivator, (b) a solution of a salt of an alkaline earth metal or zinc and an aliphatic mono-carboxylic acid dissolved in hydrocarbon solvent, and (c) an organosilicon compound. The solution of (b) and the compound of (c) may be combined. The first deactivator may be water, a nitrogenous base or carbon dioxide or the like. The organosilicon compound is of the formula SiR min n (OR) sec )4-n where R min and R sec are alkyl or cycloalkyl and n is 0-3. The hydrocarbon solvent and other volatile matter are then separated from the resultant solution and a composition comprising said high molecular weight polymer is recovered.</p> |
