Abstract

Abstract A process for producing butadiene polymer which comprises polymerizing 1,3-butadiene by using 1. A CATALYST SYSTEM COMPRISING: A. at least one of nickel and cobalt compounds, B. a trialkylaluminum compound, C. a benzotrifluoride compound, and D. a hydroquinone compound in the presence of E. water together with at least one of alcohols, carboxylic acids and phenols; or 2. A CATALYST SYSTEM COMPRISING: A. at least one of nickel and cobalt compounds, F. a dialkylaluminum monofluoride compound, and D. a hydroquinone compound in the presence or absence of G. water together with or without at least one of alcohols, carboxylic acids and phenols, TO GIVE A BUTADIENE POLYMER CONTAINING PREDOMINANTLY CIS-1,4STRUCTURE AND HAVING A REGULATED MOLECULAR WEIGHT.
