Process for polyolefin production using short residence time reactors

摘要

This invention relates to a short residence time polymerization reactor operating in periodic mode with multiple catalyst feeds and staged monomer feeds operating to minimize off specification product and optimize and control molecular weight and molecular weight distribution of the polymer produced. This invention contemplates the polymerization of olefins particularly alpha-olefins, particularly ethylene and propylene into homo, co and terpolymers.
