FTIR Microanalysis and Phase Behaviour of Ethylene/1-Hexene Random Copolymers

Ethylene/1-hexene random copolymers with 1-hexene content in the range of 1–5 mol percent, synthesised in the presence of new heterogeneous catalyst systems based on bis-carboxylato and -bis-chloro-carboxylato titanium chelate complexes, have been characterised by FTIR microspectroscopy (FTIR-M), DSC calorimetry and X-ray scattering.
