Abstract
Polymerizations of butadiene (BD) with transition metals (MtX) and methylaluminoxane (MAO) catalysts were studied. Among the catalysts examined, nicke(II) acetylacetonate [Ni(acac)~2~] in combination with MAO revealed the highest catalytic activities for the polymerization of BD, giving high molecular weight polymers consisting of mainly cisβ1,4βunits in the microstructure. With Ni(acac)~2~βMAO catalyst, the overall activation energy for the polymerization of BD between 0Β°C and 60Β°C was estimated to be 18 kJ/mol. From a kinetic study, the rate equation for the polymerization of BD with the Ni(acac)~2~βMAO catalyst at 30Β°C can be expressed as follows: R~p~ = [BD]^1.8^ [Ni(acac)~2~βMAO]^0.9^. The polymerization mechanism of the polymerization of BD with the Ni(acac)~2~βMAO catalyst is discussed.
