Description

Isobutylaluminoxane is a versatile organoaluminum compound primarily used as a co-catalyst in the polymerization of olefins. Its high Lewis acidity and ability to activate metallocene catalysts make it a critical component for producing polymers with precise molecular architectures. This product is essential for manufacturers in the polyolefin industry, particularly for the synthesis of specialty plastics and elastomers with tailored properties.

Application

• Primary co-catalyst for metallocene catalysts in polyolefin production (e.g., polyethylene, polypropylene).
• Activator in Ziegler-Natta catalyst systems for the polymerization of α-olefins.
• Key reagent in the synthesis of high-performance elastomers like ethylene-propylene-diene monomer (EPDM) rubber.
• Used in the development of advanced materials with controlled molecular weight and narrow molecular weight distribution.
• Employed in specialty chemical synthesis as a Lewis acid catalyst or reagent.
• Facilitates the production of linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) and other copolymer resins.

Quality Control

Our Isobutylaluminoxane is produced under stringent quality control protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and performance reliability. The product undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including assay determination and impurity profiling. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing key parameters such as aluminum content and solvent concentration are available upon request to support your quality assurance processes.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area. Due to its pyrophoric and moisture-sensitive nature, containers must be kept sealed and handled under inert conditions to prevent contact with air or water. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for extended stability.
