乙丙橡胶（Ethylene propylene rubber） Ethylene propylene rubber (EPR) is one kind of ethylene produced after the invention of Zieg1er, Natta catalyst, polyethylene and polypropylene. Propylene is the basic monomer of copolymer rubber, divided into two yuan ethylene propylene rubber (EPM) and three yuan ethylene propylene rubber (EPDM) two broad categories. The former is a copolymer of ethylene and propylene; the latter is a copolymer of ethylene, propylene and a small amount of non conjugated dienes. EPR has excellent performance in many other general synthetic rubber do not possess, and the monomer is cheap and widely used, is a seven varieties of synthetic rubber in foreign countries since 80s the fastest growing, yield, production capacity and consumption ranks third in developed countries, second only to styrene butadiene rubber, butadiene rubber. In 1998, the total production capacity of the worlds EPR was about 102 tons, and the consumption was 814 thousand tons. Preliminary statistics show that consumption in 1999 was about 836 thousand and 100 tons, and it is expected to reach 980 thousand tons by 2003. In 2003 1998 ~ EPR demand growth rate of 3.8%, higher than that of styrene butadiene rubber and butadiene rubber demand growth rate. At present, FPR industrial production routes are three kinds of solution polymerization, suspension polymerization and gas mixing. The following will be discussed in detail their technical status and point of view, and technical and economic comparison. 1 、 solution polymerization process 1.1 technical status In the early 60s, industrialization was improved and improved. The technology has matured and used for many new installations. It is the leading technology of industrial production, accounting for about 77.6% of the total production capacity of FPR. This is the process in which can dissolve product, and the homogeneous reaction of dissolved monomer and catalyst in a solvent, usually to alkanes such as hexane as solvent, using a V
