POLYMERIZATION INITIATING SYSTEM AND METHOD TO PRODUCE HIGHLY REACTIVE OLEFIN FUNCTIONAL POLYMERS

A method for producing highly reactive olefin polymers wherein at least 50 mol. % of the polymer chains have terminal double bonds, from an isobutylene or a mixed C 4 hydrocarbyl feedstock containing isobutylene. To achieve a viable process, water is added to the catalyst stream or the feedstock in...

Summary:A method for producing highly reactive olefin polymers wherein at least 50 mol. % of the polymer chains have terminal double bonds, from an isobutylene or a mixed C 4 hydrocarbyl feedstock containing isobutylene. To achieve a viable process, water is added to the catalyst stream or the feedstock in the overall range of 0.05 mM to less than 5 mM per liter of feedstock.
