Vanadium catalyst systems for olefin polymerization
This patent describes a catalyst system for the isotactic polymerization of alpha-olefins. It comprises: a solid precursor comprising the reaction product of a halogenated vanadium compound wherein the vanadium has a valence of 2 to 5; a magnesium compound; and an inside electron donor wherein the molar ratio of inside electron donor to vanadium compound is in the range of about 0.2:1 to about 2:1; the atomic ratio of magnesium to vanadium is in the range of about 3:1 to about 40:1; and the reaction product is a solid having a surface area greater than about 10 square meters per gram or is adsorbed on the surface of an inert inorganic support having a surface area grater than about 10 square meters per gram; a hydrocarbyl aluminum cocatalyst wherein the atomic ratio of aluminum to vanadium is in the range of about 2:1 to about 300:1; and an outside electron donor wherein the molar ratio of outside electron donor to aluminum is in the range of about 0.2:1 to about 1:1.
