Abstract:
A catalyst solid for olefin polymerization comprising A) at least one magnesium halide, B) at least one metallocene complex and C) at least one compound capable of forming metallocenium ions, is prepared by i) firstly preparing finely divided support particles consisting of the magnesium halide A) and an C1-C8-alcohol having a mean particle diameter of from 1 to 200 μm from an adduct of the magnesium halide A) and a C1-C8-alcohol, where the adduct contains from 1.5 to 5 mol of the C1-C8-alcohol per mole of magnesium halide, ii) then depositing the compound C) capable of forming metallocenium ions on the finely divided support particles and iii) subsequently bringing the reaction product hereby obtained into contact with the metallocene complex B). This catalyst solid can be used for the polymerization or copolymerization of olefins.

Abstract:
A method for making a solid catalyst component for use in a Ziegler-Natta catalyst includes combining a porous particulate support with a magnesium source in a hydrocarbon solvent to form a mixture, the magnesium source including a hydrocarbon soluble organomagnesium compound and a hydrocarbon insoluble anhydrous inorganic magnesium-halogen compound. The organomagnesium compound is halogenated and the mixture is reacted with a titanium compound or vanadium compound to form the solid catalyst component. The solid catalyst component is then recovered and combined with an organoaluminum cocatalyst to form a Ziegler-Natta catalyst which is advantageously used for the polymerization of olefins, particularly alk-1-enes such as ethylene, propylene, 1-butene, and the like. The catalyst can optionally include internal and external electron donors.
