Abstract:
1. A method for the preparation of a supported catalyst comprising: reacting a metal oxide support, selected from the group consisting of: silica, fumed silica, alumina, silica-alumina, magnesia, titania, zirconia, montmorillonite, phyllosilicate, zeolites, talc, clays, silica-chromium, silica-titania, aerogels, spherulites, and mixtures thereof, with at least one silane compound having the general formula: H reacting said silyl capped support with a second Lewis acid, which may be the same or different as said first Lewis acid, and an amine, thereby forming a supported silyl-capped silica-bound anion activator; and reacting said supported silyl-capped silica-bound anion activator with at least one catalyst precursor, thereby forming said supported catalyst.
