The present invention relates to a polyalphaolefin having a uniform structure and a method of preparing the same, and more particularly to a method of preparing polyalphaolefin having a uniform comb-like structure by minimizing the formation of short chain branches, which deteriorate the properties of lubricant base oil, using a homogeneous single-active-site metallocene catalyst, an organometallic compound cocatalyst and an organoboron compound promoter.

Polyalphaolefin having uniform structure and method of preparing same

Disclosed is a method for polymerization that copolymerizes ethylene and alpha-olefin. The method includes the steps of: copolymerizing ethylene and alpha-olefin of reaction raw materials in presence of solvents, to produce a polymerization product in which low molecular weight compounds containing unreacted ethylene and alpha-olefin, the solvents, ethylene and alpha-olefin copolymers and ethylene and alpha-olefin oligomers; separating the unreacted ethylene and alpha-olefin contained in the polymerization product by distilling; separating the solvents and the low molecular weight compounds having lower molecular weight than the ethylene and alpha-olefin copolymer and contained in the polymerization product by distilling, to obtain pure polymerization product; and separating the low molecular weight oligomers from the solvents and the low molecular weight compounds previously separated by distilling to recover the solvents, and then reusing the recovered solvents as solvents for polymerization.

Ethylene and alpha-olefin polymerization method

An apparatus and method for economically copolymerizing ethylene and alpha-olefin by reusing reacting raw materials and solvents, comprising: a polymerization reactor where ethylene and alpha-olefin are supplied as reaction raw materials with a solvent, and the reaction raw materials are copolymerized in a solution state to produce a polymerization product comprising a dissolved ethylene and alpha-olefin copolymer; a unit for separating unreacted ethylene, alpha-olefin, low molecular weight oligomer and a polymer, including a flash tower for distilling and separating the unreacted ethylene and alpha-olefin from the polymerization product, and a stripper unit for distilling and separating the solvent and the low molecular weight oligomer having a molecular weight lower than the molecular weight of the ethylene and alpha-olefin copolymer in the polymerization product; and a solvent recovery unit for separating the low molecular weight oligomer from the separated low molecular weight oligomer and solvent to recover the solvent.
