Disclosed are a Z-N catalyst for α-olefin polymerization and an application thereof, specifically, an industrial production catalyst consisting of (A) a solid catalyst component, (B) a cocatalyst organoaluminum compound and (C) an external electron donor compound and used for α-olefin polymerization or copolymerization processes. The catalyst component is prepared from a transition metal such as titanium and magnesium and a composite aromatic diacid diester/1,3-diether as an internal electron donor. One or more organoaluminum compounds or a mixture thereof serve as the cocatalyst. One or more structure control agent hydrocarbyl alkoxysilicons are compounded with one or more activity regulator organic acid esters as the external electron donor capable of automatically adjusting the polymerization rate. The Z-N catalyst is used for α-olefin polymerization/copolymerization, and can automatically adjust the polymerization rate at a higher polymerization temperature so as to maintain stable operation of a reactor.

This invention relates to a polymerization process for forming polymer comprising: contacting (typically in a solution or slurry phase), a monomer and a catalyst system in a reaction zone comprising at least one spiral heat exchanger and recovering polymer, wherein the monomer, the catalyst system and the polymer flow through the at least one spiral heat exchanger in a cross-flow direction relative to spirals of the at least one spiral heat exchanger.

It has become desirable to limit or exclude aromatic solvents, such as toluene, from polymerization reactions. For polymerization reactions employing a non-metallocene transition metal complex as a precursor to a polymerization catalyst, exclusion of aromatic solvents may be difficult due to the limited solubility of such complexes in aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents. Aliphatic hydrocarbon solutions suitable for conducting olefin polymerization reactions, particularly solution polymerization reactions, may comprise: a non-metallocene transition metal complex dissolved in an aliphatic hydrocarbon solvent at a concentration ranging from about 2 mM to about 20 mM at 25° C. in the presence of an organoaluminum compound. A molar ratio of aluminum of the organoaluminum compound to transition metal of the transition metal complex is about 1:1 or greater, and the organoaluminum compound comprises at least about 8 carbons per aluminum.
