Single site catalysts which contain a transition metal, a cyclopentadienyl may be activated with alumoxanes in the gas, solution or group-containing ligand, and a phosphinimine ligand slurry phase polymerization of olefin. Alumoxanes contain residual aluminum alkyls which may poison the catalysts. The residual aluminum alkyls may be bound and/or removed from the alumoxanes by treatment with carbohydrates such as cellulose, starch or sugar.

Sweet MAO

Aluminoxanes are used as activators for the gas, solution or slurry phase polymerization of olefins in the presence of single site catalysts. Aluminoxanes contain residual aluminum alkyls which may poison the catalysts. The residual aluminum alkyls may be bound an/or removed from the aluminoxanes by treatment with carbohydrates such as cellulose, starch or sugar.
