Abstract
Abstract Polymerization or copolymerization of the starting monomers is carried out in a hydrocarbon medium in the presence of a catalyst containing an alkylaluminium chloride compound, a trialkylvanadate and an alkoxyderivative of titanium, or zirconium, or hafnium. The method of the present invention makes it possible to considerably increase the polymerization rate and degree of conversion in the preparation of polymers and copolymers of higher α-olefines. The resulting polymers of higher α-olefines have a stereoregular structure with a high degree of crystallinity which is manifested in an increased melting point of the resulting polymer.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim
80 words
A method for preparing crystalline polymers and copolymers of higher α-olefins having from 4 to 8 carbon atoms which comprises polymerizing or copolymerizing in a hydrocarbon medium said α-olefins in a reactor in the presence of a homogeneous catalyst soluble in the hydrocarbon medium containing an alkyl-aluminum chloride, trialkyl vanadate and an alkoxy derivative of a metal selected from the group comprising titanium, zirconium, hafnium, and then separating the hydrocarbon medium and remaining catalyst from the resultant polymer or copolymer.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
80 words
A method for preparing crystalline polymers and copolymers of higher α-olefins having from 4 to 8 carbon atoms which comprises polymerizing or copolymerizing in a hydrocarbon medium said α-olefins in a reactor in the presence of a homogeneous catalyst soluble in the hydrocarbon medium containing an alkyl-aluminum chloride, trialkyl vanadate and an alkoxy derivative of a metal selected from the group comprising titanium, zirconium, hafnium, and then separating the hydrocarbon medium and remaining catalyst from the resultant polymer or copolymer.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
54 words
A method for preparing polymers and copolymers of higher α-olefines as claimed in claim 1, wherein the catalyst contains an alkylaluminium chloride compound and an alkoxyderivative of a metal selected from the group consisting of titanium, zirconium, hafnium and a trialkylvanadate at the following molar ratios between said components of the catalyst: 5.0-100:0.2-5:1 respectively.
