Abstract: Ultrahigh molecular weight ethylene polymers are prepared in the gas phase in a thoroughly mixed bed of finely divided polymer by continuous introduction of the monomer into a polymerization system at 60.degree.-120.degree. C. and 5-60 bar in the presence of a reaction product of a titanium-containing catalyst and an antistat.

Abstract: Polymers of propene are prepared by means of a Ziegler-Natta catalyst system composed of (1) a titanium component based on a finely divided shape-dictating silica gel and containing titanium, magnesium, chlorine and a benzenecarboxylic acid derivative, (2) an aluminum component and (3) a silane component, the titanium component (1) being obtained by (1.1) first preparing (I) a carrier material from (Ia) a silica gel, (Ib) an organomagnesium compound (Ic) a gaseous chlorinating agent and (Id) a specific phthalic acid derivative by (1.1.1) first reacting (Ia) with (Ib), then (1.1.2) passing (Ic) into the product of (1.1.1) together with the phthalic acid derivative (Id) and isolating (I), (1.2) preparing a solid-phase intermediate from (I), (II) an alkanol and (III) titanium tetrachloride by (1.2.1) first reacting (I) with (II), then (1.2.2) introducing (III) into the product resulting from (1.2.1), then (1.3) extracting the solid-phase result from (1.

Abstract: Propylene/ethylene block copolymers are prepared by a continuous process in which, in each case in an agitated fixed bed of finely divided polymer from the gas phase, first (I) in a first polymerization zone, propylene is homopolymerized by feeding in a Ziegler-Natta catalyst system consisting of (1) a titanium component which contains titanium, magnesium, chlorine and a phthalic acid derivative, (2) an aluminumalkyl component and (3) a silane component, and (II) in a second polymerization zone, a mixture of propylene and ethylene is polymerized with the propylene homopolymer present in the reaction mixture obtained in the first polymerization zone by feeding in the said reaction mixture.

Abstract: Polymers of propene are prepared using a Ziegler-Natta catalyst system consisting of (1) a titanium component which is based on a finely divided, shape-imparting silica gel and contains titanium, magnesium, chlorine and a benzenecarboxylic acid derivative, (2) an aluminum component and (3) a silane component. In the process, a titanium component (1) is employed which is obtained by (1.1) first preparing (I) a carrier from (Ia) a silica gel which has a relatively high moisture content, (Ib) an organomagnesium compound and (Ic) a gaseous chlorinating agent by a method in which (1.1.1) first (Ia) is reacted with (Ib), (1.1.2) then (Ic) is passed into the mixture obtained in (1.1.1), and (I) is isolated, (1.2) thereafter a solid-phase intermediate is prepared from (I), (II) an alkanol, (III) titanium tetrachloride and (IV) a phthalic acid derivative by a procedure in which (1.2.1) first (I) is reacted with (II), (1.2.2) then (III) is introduced into the mixture resulting from (1.2.
