Abstract
A polymerization reactor system was designed to monitor simultaneously total and individual polymerization rates of liquid and gaseous 1-ole fin monomers. Key element of this system is the combination of mass-fl ow meters and heat flow calorimetry. Polymerization kinetics of propen e-and 1-octene-homo-and copolymerizations using the homogeneous methyl alumoxane-activated Cp(2)ZrCl(2) were investigated. Monomer reactivity ratios and rate constants were determined from calorimetric data.
