Process for producing a polymer of an alpha-olefin and lubricant

摘要

A process for producing a polymer of an alpha-olefin. The process includes polymerizing one or more alpha-olefins having at least 4 carbon atoms in the presence of a catalyst for producing polymers of olefins. The catalyst contains (A) a specific metal compound and (B) either or both of (b-1) an organoaluminum oxy compound and (b-2) an ionic compound. The polymer of an alpha-olefin is useful as a lubricant component.
