Abstract: A Phillips catalyst for the polymerization of .alpha.-olefins, containing, as a catalytically active component, at least one chromium(III) compound on a silicon aluminum phosphate carrier of the general formula (I)(Si.sub.x Al.sub.y P.sub.z)O.sub.2 (I)where x is from 0.05 to 0.5 and y and z are each from 0.1 to 1.0, exhibits in particular high productivity and is preferably used for the preparation of homo- and copolymers of ethylene.

Abstract: Polymer blends containa) from 20 to 70% by weight of a propylene copolymer which in turn consists of from 20 to 65% by weight of a propylene homopolymer and 30 to 85% by weight of a random propylene copolymer containing polymerized C.sub.2 -C.sub.10 -alk-1-enes andb) from 30 to 80% by weight of a polyethylene having a density of from 0.94 to 0.98 g/cm.sup.3 and a melt flow index of less than 15 g/10 min at 190.degree. C. under a weight of 2.16 kg.The novel polymer blends possess, inter alia, high rigidity, high impact strength and little tendency to undergo white fracture and are particularly suitable for the production of films and moldings.
