The present invention provides olefin polymerization catalysts which can produce olefin polymers with excellent polymerization activity and an olefin polymerization method using the catalyst, wherein the catalyst comprises a transition metal amide compound represented by general formula (I) below: <CHEM> where M<1> is Ti, etc.; R<1> is alkyl, (substituted) phenyl, etc.; R<2> is -C(R<5>)2C(R<6>)mC(R<5>)2- or -C(R<5>)2-X<1>-C(R<5>)2-(X<1> representing a silicon-containing group, etc., and R<5> and R<6> representing hydrocarbon groups, etc.); and R<3> is a hydrocarbon group or halogen, etc.; and at least one compound selected from among organoaluminum oxy-compounds, ionizing ionic compounds and organometallic compounds. The present invention further provides a process for producing olefin polymers whereby the olefin polymers are produced with even higher polymerization activity, and the resulting polymers have no residual odor, wherein during polymerization or copolymerization of olefins in the presence of a catalyst comprising a transition metal amide compound represented by (R2N)kM<2>X<2>j-k (M<2> representing Ti, Zr, etc., j representing the valency of M<2>, k representing 1 to j, R representing a hydrogen atom, hydrocarbon group, etc., and X<2> representing a halogen, hydrocarbon group, etc.) and an organoaluminum oxy-compound, the organoaluminum oxy-compound is added to the polymerization system in a form of an aliphatic or alicyclic hydrocarbon slurry. <IMAGE> |
