Abstract
A method involving polymerizing ethylene in the presence of a catalyst composition containing BaFeOnanoparticles, a zirconocene catalyst, and an alkylaluminoxane co-catalyst. A nanocomposite is formed by the polymerization, whereby the BaFeOnanoparticles are dispersed in a matrix of polyethylene (PE), and the % crystallinity is lowered. The activity of the catalyst is increased in the presence of the BaFeOnanoparticles.
