Abstract: An olefin polymerization catalyst is prepared by (a) in a diluent, combining a diorganomagnesium compound with less than 2 molar equivalents of a first source of chloride to produce a “chloride deficient” magnesium chloride support; (b) without isolating any solids, adding a second source of chloride which reduces the amount of soluble un-reacted diorganomagnesium compound present; (c) without isolating any solids present, adding a tetravalent titanium species and; (d) adding an activator. The catalyst is active for solution polymerization of olefins.

Abstract: A magnesium titanium olefin polymerization procatalyst is prepared by A) reacting a diorganomagnesium compound with a source of active chlorine, (with the proviso that the amount of chlorine is insufficient to completely convert the diorganomagnesium to magnesium dichloride); then B) removing unreacted diorganomagnesium from the reaction product; then depositing a tetravalent titanium species on the reaction product. This procatalyst is highly active for the solution polymerization of olefins when combined with a cocatalyst.
