Abstract

Abstract This invention comprises a catalytic component for polymerizing olefins comprising a siliceous support containing magnesium halide, a transition metal halide, and an electron donor obtained by steps comprising: (a) infusing siliceous oxide with magnesium halide complexed with an alcohol to form a support; (b) reacting the support with an organometallic compound of a metal from Groups I to III of the periodic table to form an intermediate; (c) reacting the intermediate complex with an electron donor to form an intermediary complex; and (d) reacting the intermediary complex with a fluid comprising a transition metal halide.
