Controlling the activity of an immobilised molecular catalyst by Lewis acidity tuning of the support

The performance profile of a supported metallocene catalyst in slurry-phase ethylene polymerisation can be significantly enhanced by tuning the chemical composition of the support. By employing catalyst supports derived from zinc-containing layered double hydroxides (LDHs), the slurry phase ethylene...
