Poly-1-hexene, synthesis and solubility in dense carbon dioxide

Several poly‐1‐hexene samples were prepared using different Ziegler‐Natta catalysts, and their solubilities in dense carbon dioxide (CO2) were studied. Despite the varied molecular weight distributions (MWD) in the polymers, a surprising correlation was found between intrinsic viscosity and dense CO...

Zusammenfassung:Several poly‐1‐hexene samples were prepared using different Ziegler‐Natta catalysts, and their solubilities in dense carbon dioxide (CO2) were studied. Despite the varied molecular weight distributions (MWD) in the polymers, a surprising correlation was found between intrinsic viscosity and dense CO2 solubility. Due to the ability of dense CO2 to extract low‐molecular weight fractions preferentially, it is recommended that narrow MWD polymers be used, as far as possible, for dense CO2 solubility determinations.
