Disclosed is a process for polymerizing cationically polymerizable monomers comprising: (A) providing a solution containing an activated catalyst, said catalyst comprising (a) an aluminum compound having the formula RnAlX3-n, wherein n is an integer from 0 to 3; R is C1-C12 alkyl, C7-C9 aralkyl, C7-C18 alkaryl or C6-C10 aryl; and X is Cl, Br or I; and (b) (1) a compound having the formula R'X, wherein X is Cl, Br or I and R' is C1-C24 alkyl, C3-C20 alkenyl, C5-C9 bridged or non-bridged cycloalkyl or cycloalkenyl, C7-C9 aralkyl or (2) a hydrocarbon polymer carrying at least one X substituent wherein X is Cl, Br or I; and (B) contacting cationically polymerizable monomers with the solution of activated catalyst of (A). |
