UNIPOL™ Polypropylene Process Technology - Why Choose SHAC™ Catalyst


Ready to use SHAC Catalyst

You can readily meet market demands by selecting catalyst and donor combinations. SHAC Catalyst Systems, ADT Donors and the new CONSISTA™ Donor Technology are complementary components designed specifically for the UNIPOL™ Polypropylene Technology. They are also suitable for all other gas phase polypropylene technologies.

An important advantage is their ease of use.

Unlike some competing technologies, SHAC Catalyst Systems can be fed directly into the reactor as shipped. This will reduce handling and facility investment, and help keep your operating costs low.

SHAC Catalyst Systems:

  • Are ready to use as shipped
  • Require no activation
  • Require no-prepolymerization

Controlled Morphology Advantages

Catalyst particle size and shape directly translate to polymer particle size and shape. The family of SHAC Catalyst Systems includes controlled morphology catalysts with spherical particles that are consistent in size.

This results in advantages including:

  • Higher powder flow rates
  • Higher powder settled bulk density
  • Ability to achieve higher production rates
