SOLID CATALYST FOR OLEFIN POLYMERIZATION, OLEFIN POLYMERIZATION METHOD, AND OLEFIN POLYMER PARTICLE PRODUCED BY THE METHOD

摘要

Disclosed are: a solid catalyst component for use in the production of an olefin polymer having an excellent particulate morphology with good efficiency without the concern of causing fouling; and a method for the polymerization of an olefin in the presence of the solid catalyst component. Specifically disclosed is a solid catalyst (K) for use in the polymerization of an olefin, which is characterized by meeting the following requirements [1] and [2]: [1] a loss of ignition is 30 wt% or less as measured on a differential thermogravimeter; and [2] after treating the catalyst with water vapor of room temperature and then contacting it with acetonitrile, a component eluted into acetonitrile comprises a compound having a molecular skeleton represented by the general formula [I]. wherein R represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having 1 to 12 carbon atoms.
