Olefin Polymerisation

We offer complete services in polymerisation of olefins

Catalytic polymerisation of olefins is our Core Competence - based on 30 year’s work in this area

  • Theoretical knowledge and experienced operators
  • Ziegler Natta, Single Site & Chromium catalyst systems
  • Uni-/multimodal polymerisations (e.g. slurry+gas phase)
  • Polymerisations in slurry, bulk, gas phase; also solution polymerizations
  • PE homo-/copolymers
  • PP homopolymers, random copolymers, heterophasic copolymers, etc.

Pressure reactors available in our laboratory:

  • High pressure metal reactors, 1 - 17 liter in size:
    - 13 reactors, polymer yields up to 5 kg’s
    - Pressure up to 350 bar
    - Temperature up to 340°C
  • High pressure metal reactors, 60-200 ml in size
    - Pressure up to 100 bar
    - Temperature up to 120°C
  • Uni- & multistage polymerisation, also prepolymerisation
  • Batch or semi-batch reactors - Continuous feeds for monomer, comonomer & hydrogen
  • Experience from ethene to decene, VCH, 4-methyl-1-pentene, etc.
  • Reactor modifications will be done according to need

Based on the long experience of our people we can deliver you bench scale results with Industrial Relevance

  • Long experience on plant optimisation & troubleshooting
  • Good correlation from bench scale reactors to commercial production
  • Full scale measurements & predictions based on bench scale results
  • Plant optimisation: choice of catalyst and polymerisation conditions
  • Personnel with good plant experience
