Abstract
Abstract There is disclosed a process for the stereoregular polymerization of alpha-olefins or mixtures thereof with ethylene, conducted in the presence of highly active and stereospecific new catalysts. The catalysts are obtained from the reaction of a particular Al-alkyl compound which is at least in part in the form of a complex and/or a substitution reaction product with an ester of an oxygenated organic or inorganic acid, with a supported component characterized by having surface area exceeding certain values or showing a particular X-rays spectrum, and obtained by contacting a Ti halogenated compound, preferably in the form of a complex with an electron-donor compound, with a support comprising a Mg or Mn bihalide in an activated condition. In the catalysts the ratio between the Ti compound, expressed in Ti g-atoms, and the g moles of the ester and the electron-doner compound, when present, is lower than 0.3.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
111 words
Process for preparing a component of catalysts for the stereoregular polymerization of alpha-olefins of the formula CH 2 ═CHR in which R is an alkyl radical having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, which process comprises contacting a halogenated bi-, tri-, or tetra-valent Ti compound, or a complex of said Ti compounds and an electron-donor compound, with a support formed of or comprising an anhydrous Mg or Mn dihalide obtained by reacting, with a trialkyl Al compound, a complex of the Mg or Mn dihalide and an electron-donor compound, selected from the group consisting of esters of oxygenated organic or inorganic acids, the Al trialkyl/ester molar ratio being higher than 1.0.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
13 words
The process of claim 1, in which the Al trialkyl is Al triethyl.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
27 words
The process of claim 1, in which the amount of Ti compound contained in the catalyst, expressed as Ti metal, is from 0.1% to 10% by weight.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
31 words
The process of claim 1, in which the component of the catalyst is the product obtained by contacting an addition product of the Ti compound and ethyl benzoate with the support.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
29 words
The process of claim 1, in which the component of the catalyst is obtained by contacting an addition product of the Ti compound and methoxy benzoate with the support.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
30 words
The process of claim 1, in which the component of the catalyst is the product obtained by contacting an addition product of the Ti compound and ethyl-alpha-naphthoate with the support.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
56 words
The process of claim 1, in which the activated Mg or Mn bihalide of the support is the product obtained by reacting a normal, non-activated Mg or Mn bihalide with ethyl benzoate and decomposing the resulting reaction product with an Al trialkyl in an amount such that the Al trialkyl/ester molar ratio is higher than 1.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
61 words
The process of claim 1, in which the activated Mg or Mn bihalide of the support is the product obtained by reacting a normal, non-activated Mg or Mn bihalide with ethyl-p-methoxy benzoate and decomposing the resulting reaction product or complex by treatment thereof with an Al trialkyl in an amount such that the Al trialkyl/ester molar ratio is higher than 1.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
60 words
The process of claim 1, in which the activated Mg or Mn bihalide of the support is the product obtained by reacting a normal, non-activated Mg or Mn bihalide with ethyl-alpha-naphthoate and decomposing the resulting reaction product or complex by treatment thereof with an Al trialkyl in an amount such that the Al trialkyl/ester molar ratio is higher than 1.
