Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Catalyst deactivating agents and compositions containing catalyst deactivating agents are disclosed. These catalyst deactivating agents can be used in methods of controlling polymerization reactions, methods of terminating polymerization reactions, methods of operating polymerization reactors, and methods of transitioning between catalyst systems.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

We claim: 1. A composition consisting of: a hydrocarbon solvent having from 3 to 18 carbon atoms; and a catalyst deactivating agent comprising a compound having the structure: or a combination thereof. 2. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the hydrocarbon solvent comprises propane, isobutane, n-butane, n-pentane, isopentane, neopentane, n-hexane, heptane, octane, cyclohexane, cycloheptane, methylcyclohexane, methylcycloheptane, benzene, toluene, xylene, ethylbenzene, or a mixture thereof. 3. The composition of claim 2 , wherein a weight ratio of the hydrocarbon solvent to the catalyst deactivating agent is in a range from about 100:1 to about 1:100. 4. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the catalyst deactivating agent comprises: 5. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the catalyst deactivating agent comprises: 6. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the catalyst deactivating agent comprises: 7. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the catalyst deactivating agent comprises: 8. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the hydrocarbon solvent comprises isobutane. 9. The composition of claim 1 , wherein a weight ratio of the hydrocarbon solvent to the catalyst deactivating agent is in a range from about 100:1 to about 1:100.
