Identify catalyst used in manufacturing of HDP.
- A Zieglar - Natta
- B Peroxides
- C Lindlar's
- D Magnesium oxide
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) Zieglar - Natta
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
HDP means high density polyethylene. It is a linear polymer with high density due to close packing.

HDP is obtained by polymerization of ethane in presence of Zieglar-Natta catalyst which is a combination of triethyl aluminium with titanium tetrachloride at a temperature of \(333 \mathrm{~K}\) to \(343 \mathrm{~K}\) and a pressure of 6-7 \(\mathrm{atm}\).
