Abstract

In this paper we are going to study the differences between a Ziegler-Natta and metallocene catalyst. Both of these catalysts differ from in each other in structural configuration, physical properties, chemical properties, activity, temperature stability etc. The purpose of this paper to study and compare metallocene catalyst with Ziegler-Natta catalysts to extract valuable aspects of both the catalysts. Catalysts can impact the rate of formation of polymers within the metallocene polymerization.
