Production of Gradient Copolymers Using Monomer and Comonomer Concentration Gradients in a Loop Reactor

摘要

A method for producing gradient copolymers can include polymerizing a reaction mixture comprising a monomer and a comonomer in the presence of a metallocene catalyst in a loop reactor, wherein in the loop reactor a gradient monomer weight percent in the reaction mixture is about 3 wt % to about 50 wt %, thereby forming a gradient copolymer.
