One developer of this class of chemical substances showed how to produce isotactic polypropylene using the variations to the original example that he introduced and these typically consist of a transition metal halide and an organometallic cocatalyst.
One developer of this class of chemical substances showed how to produce isotactic polypropylene using the variations to the original example that he introduced and these typically consist of a transition metal halide and an organometallic cocatalyst. The first example, a mixture of titanium tetrachloride and an alkyl derivative of aluminum, was used to produce a more rigid version of polyethylene at low temperatures. In general, they are used to effect the polymerization of alkenes to polymers of high molecular weights and highly ordered structures. For 10 points - what are these catalysts named for the German and Italian chemists who developed them?
