Meso-ethylene bis (1-indenyl)zirconium(IV) dichloride（Cat No.:M045396） is a metallocene catalyst component used predominantly in the polymer industry. It consists of a zirconium atom coordinated to two indenyl ligands linked by an ethylene bridge, along with two chloride ligands. This configuration provides a highly effective catalyst system, particularly when paired with methyl aluminoxane (MAO) as a co-catalyst, for the polymerization of olefins such as ethylene and propylene. The structure allows for precise control over the polymerization process, leading to polymers with specific molecular weights and stereoregularities, crucial for determining the material properties of the resulting plastics.
