Various SiSiB alkylalkoxy silane have been used as components in Ziegler-Natta Polymerization Catalyst Systems. Organoalkoxysilanes can chemically coordinate with the organometallic catalyst to modify the course of the polymerization. Specific variations in the tacticity of the propylene polymer are possible by optimizing the use of a silane donor in the process.
Different silane donors with differing organoalkoxy structures are used depending on the exact nature of the catalyst and the type of polypropylene being manufactured. Organic substituents, such as cyclohexyl, cyclopentyl, methyl, isobutyl and phenyl, are some of the organic groups attached to silicon. The alkoxy groups are either methoxy or ethoxy with one, two, or three alkoxy groups on the silane molecule.
