Description

Diphenylmethylidene(Cyclopentadienyl)(9-Fluorenyl)Titanium Dichloride is a highly specialized organometallic compound belonging to the class of constrained geometry catalysts (CGCs). This compound matters as a high-performance single-site catalyst precursor for the production of advanced polyolefins with precise molecular architectures. It is primarily needed by R&D chemists and process engineers in the polymer and advanced materials sectors for developing novel polymers with tailored properties.

Application

• Catalyst Component for Olefin Polymerization: As a key precursor in single-site catalyst systems for the production of polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) with controlled tacticity, molecular weight, and comonomer incorporation.
• Advanced Polyolefin Elastomers (POE): Enables the synthesis of high-performance elastomeric polyolefins used in automotive parts, wire & cable, and flexible packaging.
• Specialty Copolymers: Facilitates the copolymerization of ethylene with α-olefins (e.g., 1-hexene, 1-octene) to create linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) and plastomers with enhanced mechanical and optical properties.
• Polymer R&D and Process Development: Serves as a critical reagent in academic and industrial research for exploring new polymerization mechanisms and polymer structures.
• Catalyst Screening and Optimization: Used in high-throughput experimentation to discover and fine-tune next-generation polymerization catalysts.

Quality Control

Our organometallic catalyst precursors are manufactured and handled under strict inert atmosphere conditions to ensure integrity. Each batch undergoes rigorous quality testing, including NMR and elemental analysis, to verify identity and purity. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing batch-specific results are available upon request to support your quality assurance and R&D documentation.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (argon or nitrogen) in a cool, dry place at 2-8°C to minimize decomposition. This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and easily oxidized; all handling must be performed using standard Schlenk line or glovebox techniques.
