A FREE RADICAL INITIATOR SYSTEM AND A HIGH PRESSURE, FREERADICAL POLYMERIZATION PROCESS FOR PRODUCING A LOW DENSITY POLYETHYLENE POLYMER

摘要

The instant invention is a free radical initiator system, and a high pressure, free radical polymerization process for producing a low density polyethylene polymer. The free radical initiator system according to instant invention includes at least one peroxide initiator, at least one hydrocarbon solvent, and at least one polar co-solvent. The high pressure, free radical polymerization process for producing a low density polyethylene polymer includes the steps of polymerizing ethylene and optionally at least one comonomer under high pressure conditions using a free radical initiator system comprising at least one peroxide initiator, at least one hydrocarbon solvent, and at least polar co-solvent.;COPYRIGHT KIPO & WIPO 2010
