  • Patent number: 9315601
    Abstract: A solid catalyst component for olefin polymerization and a catalyst are disclosed that exhibit high catalytic activity when used for gas-phase polymerization, suppress rapid reactions in the initial stage of polymerization relative to the polymerization activity, and can produce a propylene polymer in high yield while maintaining high stereoregularity. The solid catalyst component for olefin polymerization includes magnesium, titanium, a halogen, and an internal electron donor, the solid catalyst component including an asymmetrical phthalic diester represented by the following general formula (1) in a molar ratio of 0.2 to 0.8 relative to the total content of the internal electron donor.
