Graphene/Polyolefin Nanocomposites prepared via in-situ Polymerization with Multilayer Graphene-Supported Single-Site Catalysts |
초록 |
Carbon-based nanomaterial such as multilayer graphene (MLG) was used as catalyst support and nanofillers for ethylene or propylene polymerizations. The MLG-supported (n-BuCp)2ZrCl2 catalyst system produced polyethylene with extremely high molecular weight (MW), much higher than the MW of polyethylene from unsupported (n-BuCp)2ZrCl2 catalyst. We suggest that MLG can serve not only as a support for adsorption but also as an additional ligand to (n-BuCp)2ZrCl2 during ethylene polymerization. The surface of graphene can be a strong and bulky ligand that is attached to (n-BuCp)2ZrCl2. The β-hydrogen elimination mechanism can be disturbed by the bulky surface of graphene. The initial degradation temperature (Tonset) for the MLG/polyolefin nanocomposites increased by about 20 oC compared with neat polyolefin, and maximum mass loss temperature (Tmax) increased by about 7 oC. It means the presence of graphene definitely improve thermal stability of polyolefin when it is dispersed in the polymer matrix. Nano-dispersed MLG can act as barriers to hinder the heat transfer within the MLG/polyolefin nanocomposites, which would shift to higher degradation temperature. |
