Polyolefins, i.e. the polymers of monoolefins exemplified in the preceding paragraph, preferably polyethylene and polypropylene, can be prepared by different, and especially by the following, methods: [0304]
a) radical polymerisation (normally under high pressure and at elevated temperature). [0305]
b) catalytic polymerisation using a catalyst that normally contains one or more than one metal of groups IVb, Vb, VIb or VIII of the Periodic Table. These metals usually have one or more than one ligand, typically oxides, halides, alcoholates, esters, ethers, amines, alkyls, alkenyls and/or aryls that may be either π- or σ-coordinated. These metal complexes may be in the free form or fixed on substrates, typically on activated magnesium chloride, titanium(III) chloride, alumina or silicon oxide. These catalysts may be soluble or insoluble in the polymerisation medium. The catalysts can be used by themselves in the polymerisation or further activators may be used, typically metal alkyls, metal hydrides, metal alkyl halides, metal alkyl oxides or metal alkyloxanes, said metals being elements of groups Ia, IIa and/or IIIa of the Periodic Table. The activators may be modified conveniently with further ester, ether, amine or silyl ether groups.

Example 1

Light Stabilization of Polypropylene Homopolymer Films

100 parts of unstabilized polypropylene powder (melt flow index: about 3.2 g/10 min. at 230° C. and 2160 g) are homogenized at 200° C. for 10 min. in a Brabender plastograph with 0.05 parts of pentaerythrityl tetrakis[3-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propionate], 0.05 parts of tris[2,4-di-tert-butylphenyl] phosphite, 0.1 parts of Ca stearate, 0.25 parts of an inorganic or organic pigment and the amount of light stabilizer indicated in Table 1 or 2. The material thus obtained is compression molded in a laboratory press between two aluminum foils for 6 min. at 260° C. to a 0.5 mm thick film which is cooled immediately to room temperature in a water-cooled press. Samples of 60 mm×25 mm are cut out of these 0.5 mm films and are exposed in a WEATHER-OMETER Ci 65 (black panel temperature 63±9° C., without water-spraying). [0445]

Periodically, these samples are removed from the exposure apparatus and their carbonyl content is measured with an infrared spectrophotometer. The exposure time (T _0.1) corresponding to the formation of a carbonyl absorbance of 0.1 is a measure for the stabilizing efficiency of the light stabilizer. The values obtained are summarized in Tables 1 and 2.
