Catalyst activation is an important aspect of polyolefin catalyst research and development. Here we describe a high-throughput catalyst activation strategy screen based on microscale 1-octene polymerization reactions (0.5 µmol catalyst per reaction). With this screen, hundreds of unique catalyst systems were evaluated using automated equipment. Results show that combinations of catalysts, co-catalysts, and scavengers with various chemical and structural properties can lead to dramatic changes in 1-octene polymerization performance. Importantly, several trends observed using this screen have also been described at larger scales.
