Abstract From the Canadian patent

The present invention provides a method for varying the melting points and molecular weights of polyolefins by changing the structure of the catalyst used in the polymerization. The catalysts that are useful in the present invention are chiral stereorigid metallocene catalyst of the formula R"(C5R' m)2MeQ. The catalysts include a bridge structure between the (C5R' m) groups and may contain substituents on the groups. It has been discovered that the melting points and molecular weights of the polymers produced by such catalysts are influenced by the bridge and substituents added to the (C5R' m) groups. Thus, the present invention provides a method for varying the melting points of the …
