Abstract

See full text

Solid supported catalysts which can be employed for the polymerization of .alpha.-olefins are prepared by (A) reacting in the presence of a diluent such as n-hexane a mixture of (1) the reaction product of (a) an organo magnesium compound such as dibutyl magnesium and (b) at least one of water, carbon dioxide or an organic, oxygen-containing compound such as n-propyl alcohol; and (2) a transition metal halide such as titanium tetrachloride and (B) recovering the solid precipitate such as by decanting and (C) washing the solid with a solvent such as n-hexane. The resultant solid supported catalyst contains sufficient transition metal which when activated with a suitable activating agent serves as a polymerization catalyst for .alpha.-olefins. The polymers prepared employing these catalysts have a relatively narrow molecular weight distribution and low residual amounts of transition metal and halides.
