Process for polymerization of alpha -olefins and catalysts therefor

摘要

Stereospecific polymerization of alpha -olefins is carried out with use of a catalyst system comprising an activated titanium compound, an organoaluminum compound and an electron donative compound. The activated titanium compound is obtained by copulverizing magnesium halide, a halongenated hydrocarbon and an orthocarboxylic acid ester and then treating the copulverized product with titanium halide.
