Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The Application of equations of state to experimental and literature data permits the formation of a model and phase diagram(s) that show under what conditions polyethylene is likely to precipitate out of a high pressure solution of polyethylene in supercritical ethylene. This then permits a better definition to run a high pressure reactor to reduce the likelihood of phase separation, loss of cooling and potentially decomposition of the reactor contents.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method to determine the curve of the liquid liquid equilibrium boundary as a function of molecular weight distribution (MWD) for a multitude of different products comprising from about 80 to about 100 wt. % of ethylene and about 0 up to about 20 weight % of one or more C 3-8 alpha olefins having a molecular weight from about 8,000 to about 500,000 produced in super critical ethylene in a high pressure reactor at temperatures from about 80° C. to about 350°…
