Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 15
Claim 1
Independent Claim 66 words
A process for the preparation of olefin polymers stable to heat and oxidation by polymerization on a solid catalyst obtained by reaction of an aluminium alkyl with a solid product comprising a magnesium dihalide in active form and a titanium compound, which process comprises adding to the polymerization zone at least one 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine compound as a stabilizer and at least one phosphorus-III ester as a costabilizer.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 66 words
A process for the preparation of olefin polymers stable to heat and oxidation by polymerization on a solid catalyst obtained by reaction of an aluminium alkyl with a solid product comprising a magnesium dihalide in active form and a titanium compound, which process comprises adding to the polymerization zone at least one 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine compound as a stabilizer and at least one phosphorus-III ester as a costabilizer.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 21 words
A process according to claim 1, which comprises adding as the additional co-stabilizer an antioxidant of the sterically hindered phenol type.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 16 words
A process according to claim 1, wherein the catalyst comprises at least one electron donor compound.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 15 words
A process according to claim 3, wherein the electron donor is a carboxylic acid ester.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 22 words
A process according to claim 3, wherein the electron donor used is an organic silicon compound having at least one Si--O--C bond.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 20 words
A process according to claim 1, wherein the magnesium dihalide is magnesium dichloride and the titanium compound is titanium tetrachloride.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 30 words
A process according to claim 1, wherein the stabilizer used is a compound the molecule of which contains both at least one 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine group and at least one s-triazine group.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 22 words
A process according to claim 7, wherein the stabilizer used is a compound of formula ##STR19## wherein n is 4 to 10.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 28 words
A process according to claim 1, wherein the co-stabilizer used is a phosphorus-III ester which contains at least one group P--O--Ar, Ar being a monoalkylphenyl or dialkylphenyl radical.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 13 words
A process according to claim 1, wherein the co-stabilizer used is tris-(2,4-di-tert-butylphenyl) phosphite.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 12 words

Claim 13
Dependent Claim 15 words
A process according to claim 2, wherein octadecyl β-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)-propionate is used as the additional co-stabilizer.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim 13 words
A stabilized polyolefin which has been prepared by the process of claim 1.
Claim 15
Dependent Claim 7 words
A stabilized polypropylene according to claim 13.
