The need for higher value-added materials has expanded the market for metallocene-catalyzed polyolefin products. The attractive features of metallocene polyethene and polypropene are the uniform polymer structures, even comonomer and molar mass distribution, controlled molar mass and the possibility to tailor the polymer microstructure, and thereby the material properties, by modifying the catalyst structure. The focus of this thesis was on understanding of the structure-property relations in metallocene-catalyzed olefin polymerization. The polymerization process – activation, propagation, chain transfer and isomerization reactions – was examined for propene and ethene. The influence of the central metal atom on the activity of the catalys...
