Abstract
In this article on processes for manufacturing polyolefins, I shall be discussing a very active area of technology that is still changing and advancing rapidly. The purpose of the article is to give the background and an overview of manufacturing technology. The discussion is centered around these aspects: (1) Basic technical features (2) Process flexibility with respect to product properties (3) Recent and anticipated developments (4) Comparative economicsKeywords
