Control of branch formation in ethylene polymerization by a [Ni(h3-2-MeC3H4)(diimine)] PF6 / DEAC catalyst system

The polymerization of ethylene mediated by [Ni(eta³-2-MeC3H4){ArN=C(H)C(H)=NAr}] PF6, Ar = 2,6-C6H3iPr2 /DEAC catalyst precursor under mild reaction conditions (reaction temperature between -10 ºC and 25 ºC and ethylene pressure between 109 and 1520 kPa) yields high molecular weight branched polyeth...
