Polymers of olefines are made by polymerizing an olefine in the presence of a catalyst comprising (a) a metal hydride or organometallic compound of a metal selected from Pb, Sn, Ge, Si, As, Sb, or Bi, (b) a halide of an element selected from Ti, Zr, Hf, Th, V, Nb, Ta, Pa, Cr, Mo, W, or U, (c) a halide of an element selected from B, Al, Sc, Ga, Y, In, La or Tl, and (d) an amine, a heterocyclic nitrogen compound, or a quaternary ammonium salt. Specified (d) components are aniline, pyridine, di-N-propylamine, naphthylamine, N,N1-diphenyl-para-phenylene diamine, hexylamine, symmetrical diphenylguanidine, N-N1-diethylparaphenylene diamine, dimethylbenzyllauryl-, trimethylbenzyl-, dodecyltrimethyl- or octadecyltrimethylammonium chloride, and tetrabutyl ammonium iodide. The exemplified (a) component is Sn(C4H9)4, the (b) component TiCl4, and the (c) component AlCl3. The olefine may be ethylene or propylene. Specifications 860,407, 895,597 and 896,509 are referred to. |
