Abstract

Abstract A solid catalyst component prepared by washing a solid substance, which has been obtained by reacting diethoxymagnesium (a) suspended in an alkylbenzene (b) with titanium tetrachloride (c) in an amount less than 1/2 of the alkylbenzene (b) in a ratio by volume and a phthalic diester (d) at a temperature within the range of 80°-135° C., with an alkylbenzene, and thereafter reacting the solid substance in a presence of an alkylbenzene (b) with titanium tetrachloride (c) in an amount less than 1/2 of the alkylbenzene (b) in a ratio by volume as well as an olefin polymerization catalyst comprising (A) the solid catalyst component specified above, (B) a silicon compound of the general formula: SiR.sub.m (OAlk).sub.4-m wherein R is a group selected from an alkyl group, a cycloalkyl group, and aryl group and vinyl group, Alk is an alkyl group and m is 0 or an integer of 1-3, with the proviso that when R is an alkyl group, R may be identical with Alk and when m is 1, 2 or 3, the groups and/or the Alk groups may respectively be identical or different, and (C) an organoaluminum compound. This catalyst is capable of exhibiting a high polymerization activity combined with a high stereospecific performance and producing stereoregular olefin polymers in a high yield.
