摘要
A novel synthetic procedure for the synthesis of precisely controlled multiblock syndiotactic-atactic stereoblock polypropylene (PP) with a living stereocontrollable polymerization of propylene using the 1-dMMAO system was investigated. All operations were performed under nitrogen gas using standard Schlenk techniques, and all solvents were dried and distilled before use. Polymerization was performed in a 100 mL glass reactor equipped with a magnetic stirrer. Molecular weight and molecular weight distribution of the polymer obtained were determined by gel permeation chromatography. The catalytic system showed high activity and gave PP with high number-average molecular weight for 4 minutes under 1.0 atm. The activity was decreased according to the decrease of the propylene pressure. The results suggest that the propylene polymerization proceeded in a living manner regardless of the propylene pressure, and the initiation efficiency was slightly dependent on the propylene concentration.
