Salicylaldehyde imine transition metal catalyst is a kind of olefin polymerization catalyst which is widely used in the coordination of salicylaldehyde imine ligand and pre-transition metal. Salicylaldehyde imine ligands have the characteristics of easily insert different substituents via organic synthesize. Therefore, the regulation of the polymerization activity, polymerization product and product distribution can be achieved by changing the steric hindrance effect, electronic effect and the number of metal active sites which near the catalytic active center. The development status of the transition metal catalyst of salicylaldehyde imide was summarized in this paper. The influence of the ligand structure of salicylaldehyde imide transition metal catalyst on the catalytic performance which involved the high selectivity ethylene trimerization, ethylene / α-olefin, / Polar monomer copolymerization, ethylene polymerization production of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene and many other areas of olefin polymerization was elaborated and providing references for further study and industrial applications of this catalyst.

The stopped-flow (SF) technique has been extensively applied to study Ziegler–Natta (ZN) olefin polymerization kinetics within an extremely short period (typically <0.2 s) for understanding the nature of the active sites as well as the polymerization mechanisms through microstructure analyses of obtained polymers. In spite of its great applicability, a small amount of polymer that is yielded in a short-time polymerization has been a major bottleneck for polymer characterizations. In order to overcome this limitation, a large-scale SF (LSF) system has been developed, which offers stable and scalable polymerization over an expanded time range from a few tens milliseconds to several seconds. The scalability of the LSF technique has been further improved by introducing a new quenching protocol. With these advantages, the LSF technique has been effectively applied to address several unknown issues in ZN catalysis, such as the role of physical and chemical transformations of a catalyst on the initial polymerization kinetics, and regiochemistry of ZN propylene polymerization. Here, we review the development of the LSF technique and recent efforts for understanding heterogeneous ZN olefin polymerization catalysis with this new system.
