Summary
-
1.
Investigation of the catalytic activity of different types of silicagels in polymerization of isobutylene at 190° and atmospheric pressure showed that fine types (ASM, KSM and particularly ShSM) and, to a lesser extent, only one coarse silicagel (KSK) are active.
-
2.
Polymerization products obtained in the presence of samples KSK and ASM are mainly 2, 4, 4-trimethylpentene-1 (to 45%), 2, 4, 4-trimethylpentene-2 (10%) and trimers (15– 25%). Polymerization on the remaining types of silicagels studied was accompanied by skeletal isomerization and formation of non-integral polymers (C5– C7 hydrocarbons).
-
3.
The optimum reaction temperature (in the interval from 100 to 500°) was 190°.
-
4.
Only sample KSK, among the silicagels studied, is regenerated by treatment with air at 300°.
