High-activity catalyst for producing low-, medium- and high density polyethylenes by gas phase polymerization, process for preparing the same and use of the same in ethylene polymerization

Abstract

Disclosed is a catalyst for synthesizing low-, medium- and high-density polyethylene, prepared by using commercial powdered magnesium as a raw material, forming a magnesium halide in the nascent state, then reacting said magnesium halide with a titanium compound and an alkyl aluminum compound in the presence of an electron donor compound to form a complex, supporting said complex onto silica carrier and drying the resulting mixture by heating to form a solid main catalyst component, and finally mixing said main catalyst component with an organometallic compound as cocatalyst. The catalyst according to the present invention is characterized by a simple preparing procedure, smooth and stable reaction, uniform heat liberation and less agglomerates when used for gas phase polymerizing ethylene, high polymerization activity, high sensitivity to the modification by hydrogen and high copolymerization power, and the products thus obtained have good product morphology.
