Abstract: The polymerization of propylene under highly active catalyst comprising phthalic esters 1,2-C6H4(COOEt)2,1,2-C6H4(COOCH2CH=CH2)2,1,2-C6H4(COOBu)2 as electron-donors has been studied.It was found that the PPtacticity would raise with increasing phthalic esters,and the catalytic activity decreases while the PPtacticity increases.By adding silicon compounds PhSi(OEt)3,Ph2Si(OMe)2,Ph2Si(OEt)2,(CH3)2Si(OEt)2,there are almost the same results.The kinetics of propylene polymerization has been investigated.The polymerization rate equation in good agreement with experimental evidence is expressed as:Vt-Va=(V0-Va)e-βt,The change in morphology of the catalyst was studied before and after adding phthalate ester by SEM.
