Preparation of graphene/MgCl2-supported Ti-based Ziegler-Natta catalysts by the coagglomeration method and their application in ethylene polymerization

A facile coagglomeration method for preparing graphene(G)/MgCl2-supported Ziegler-Natta catalyst was reported. After in-situ ethylene polymerization, the resultant polyethylene/graphene nanocomposites exhibited enhanced thermal stability and mechanical properties than neat polyethylene.
