    Abstract: Catalyst system, the catalyst system comprising (i) at least one metallocene complex of formula (I) wherein Mt1 is Hf, X is a sigma-donor ligand, R1, R2, R3 are the same or different from each other and can be hydrogen or a saturated linear or branched C1-C10 alkyl, whereby the alkyl group can optionally contain up to 2 heteroatoms belonging to groups 14-16 of the periodic table, or R1 and R2 or R2 and R3 can form a ring having 4 to 6 C-atoms and 1 to 3 double bonds, R4 and R5 are the same or different from each other and can be saturated linear or branched C1-C10 alkyl, C5-C10 aryl, C6-C20 alkylaryl or C6-C20 arylalkyl groups, which can optionally contain up to 2 heteroatoms belonging to groups 14-16 of the periodic table, n can be 1 to 5, Ar is a C6-C20-aryl or -heteroaryl group, which can be unsubstituted or substituted by 1 to 5 linear or branched C1-C10 alkyl group(s), and (ii) an aluminoxane cocatalyst and (iii) optionally an aluminium alkyl compound AI(R7)3, with R7 being a linear or branched C2-C8-alkyl group.

    Abstract: Catalyst system for producing ethylene copolymers in a high temperature solution process, the catalyst system comprising: (i) a metallocene complex of formula (I) wherein M is Hf or a mixture with Zr, provided that more than 50% by moles of the complex of Formula I has M=Hf; X is a sigma ligand; R are the same or different from each other and can be saturated linear or branched C1-C10 alkyl, C6-C10 aryl, C4-C10 heteroaryl, C6-C20 alkylaryl or C6-C20 arylalkyl groups, which can optionally contain up to 2 heteroatoms or silicon atoms; R1 is a C6-C10 aryl or C6-C20 alkylaryl group optionally containing up to 2 heteroatoms or silicon atoms or a C4-C10 heteroaryl group; R2 is a C4-C20 cycloalkyl group, optionally carrying alkyl substituents in beta-positions, of formula (II) in which R′ can be the same or can be different from each other and can be hydrogen or is defined as R and n is 1 to 17; and (ii) a boron containing cocatalyst.
