Patent number: 4780443Abstract: The present invention relates to an improvement of the known Ziegler catalyst which comprises a combination of a titanium-containing component and an organoaluminum component, and the present invention is characterized by a specific titanium-containing component. Namely, this titanium-containing component is obtained by contacting a known titanium-containing component of the Ziegler type catalyst which comprises Ti, Mg and a halogen, with an alkoxyalkylsilane compound which is characterized in that at least one of the alkyl groups has a branched structure. This catalyst does not require a so-called external electron donor, and no reduction of the polymerization velocity caused by the use of the electron donor is entailed. When this catalyst is used, a propylene/ethylene block copolymer in which the molecular weight of the propylene/ethylene copolymer portion and/or the polyethylene portion is increased, that is, the rigidity and impact strength are increased, can be prepared.Type: GrantFiled: February 2, 1987Date of Patent: October 25, 1988Assignee: Mitsubishi Petrochemical Company LimitedInventors: Mitsuyuki Matsuura, Takashi Fujita

Catalyst component for alpha olefine-polymerizing catalysts and procedure for manufacturing the same
Patent number: 4780441Abstract: A catalyst component for alpha olefine-polymerizing catalysts which comprise an organoaluminum compound, an external electron donor, and a solid catalyst component obtained when a solid carrier component containing magnesium has reacted with a titanium halide compound, in addition to a procedure for manufacturing the same. The catalyst component is produced by reacting a solid carrier component with a titanium halide compound with or without the presence of an internal electron donor. The solid carrier component is prepared by(a) dissolving or suspending a magnesium compound in ethanol or water,(b) adding to the solution or suspension, hydrochloric acid in a substantially stoichiometric quantity to the magnesium, to completely dissolve the same,(c) drying the magnesium solution with the aid of periodic azeotropic distillation, and(d) precipitating the solid carrier component from the thus-dried solution.Type: GrantFiled: April 1, 1987Date of Patent: October 25, 1988Assignee: Neste OyInventor: Thomas Graroff -
