42. Polymerizations are normally done in concert with activator-only runs, as well as standard (highly active) activators that provide the proper controls.
43. Use of polymer molecular weight or PDI to determine whether the catalyst is aluminum or zirconium is not possible, since zirconium complexes produce such a variety of polymers.
