Loop reactor with varying diameter for olefin polymerization

Process for polymerizing at least one olefinic monomer in a loop reactor at from 20 to 150° C., but below the melting point of the polymer to be formed, and a pressure of from 5 to 100 bar, where the polymer formed is present in a suspension in a liquid or supercritical suspension medium and this su...

Zusammenfassung:Process for polymerizing at least one olefinic monomer in a loop reactor at from 20 to 150° C., but below the melting point of the polymer to be formed, and a pressure of from 5 to 100 bar, where the polymer formed is present in a suspension in a liquid or supercritical suspension medium and this suspension is circulated by means of an axial pump, wherein the loop reactor comprises a cyclic reactor tube whose diameter varies by at least 10%, based on the predominant reactor tube diameter, and in which there is at least one widening and narrowing in a region other than that of the axial pump.
