  • Patent number: 7282544
    Abstract: A propylene polymerisation process carried out in the presence of an anti-fouling agent; characterised in that the anti-fouling agent comprises an anti-fouling polymer containing: (1) one or more blocks —(CH2—CH2—O)k— where each k is in the range from 1 to 50; and (2) one or more blocks —(CH2—CH(R)—O)n— where R comprises an alkyl group having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms and each n is in the range from 1 to 50; and terminated by a R? and a R? end groups wherein R? is OH or an alkoxy having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms and R? is H or an alkyl having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, and the anti-fouling polymer is solvated in a solvent comprising cyclohexane when added to the polymerisation medium.
