The invention discloses a visible light responsive titanium dioxide nanowire/metal organic skeleton/carbon nanofiber membrane and preparation method and application thereof. A CNF (Carbon Nano Fiber)/TiO.sub.2 nano-wire/MIL-100 (represented as CTWM) membrane material is prepared and an MIL-100 material is used for adsorbing waste gas to enhance the photocatalytic effect of titanium dioxide on the membrane material; a CNF/TiO.sub.2/MIL-100 membrane catalyst sufficiently utilizes the adsorption capability of MIL-100 on the waste gas, the photocatalytic degradation performance of the TiO.sub.2 and high electrical conductivity of CNF to effectively prolong the service life of photoelectrons and promote the photocatalytic activity of the photoelectrons.

Methods for synthesizing a water-soluble titanium-silicon complex are disclosed herein. The titanium-silicon complex can be utilized to produce titanated solid oxide supports and titanated chromium supported catalysts. The titanated chromium supported catalysts subsequently can be used to polymerize olefins to produce, for example, ethylene based homopolymer and copolymers.

Catalyst compositions containing a metallocene compound, a solid activator, and a co-catalyst, in which the solid activator or the supported metallocene catalyst has a d50 average particle size of 15 to 50 μm and a particle size distribution of 0.5 to 1.5, can be contacted with an olefin in a loop slurry reactor to produce an olefin polymer. A representative ethylene-based polymer produced using the catalyst composition has excellent dart impact strength and low gels, and can be characterized by a HLMI from 4 to 10 g/10 min, a density from 0.944 to 0.955 g/cm.sup.3, a higher molecular weight component with a Mn from 280,000 to 440,000 g/mol, and a lower molecular weight component with a Mw from 30,000 to 45,000 g/mol and a ratio of Mz/Mw ranging from 2.3 to 3.4.
