Abstract:Reevaluating the composition of the double metal cyanide catalyst (DMC) as a salt of (NC) 6 Co 3− anions with 1:1 Zn 2+ /(X)Zn + cations (X = Cl, RO, AcO), we prepared a series of well-defined DMCs, [was precisely determined at the atomic level through Rietveld refinement of the synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction data. By evaluating the catalyst's performance in both propylene oxide (PO) polymerization and PO/CO 2 copolymerization, a correlation between structure and performance was established on various as… Show more
