ABSTRACT:
A method comprising (a) contacting a support and a chromium-containing compound to form chromium-containing support, (b) heat treating the chromium-containing support in an oxidizing atmosphere to form a treated support, (c) contacting the treated support with carbon monoxide to form a CO-contacted support, and (d) contacting the CO-contacted support with hydrogen to form a catalyst. A method comprising oxidizing a chromium-treated support to form a polymerization catalyst, contacting the polymerization catalyst with carbon monoxide to form a reduced polymerization catalyst, contacting the reduced polymerization catalyst with hydrogen to form an activated polymerization catalyst, and contacting the activated polymerization catalyst with ethylene in a reaction zone under suitable reaction conditions to form a random copolymer. A method comprising reducing a polymerization catalyst comprising Cr(VI) to form a polymerization catalyst comprising Cr(II), and treating the polymerization catalyst comprising Cr(II) with hydrogen.
