Summary
Copolymerization of ethene and styrene was conducted at 40°C using the catalyst system composed of Solvay type TiCl3 and Cp2Ti(CH3)2. The crude polymer was fractionated with boiling chloroform to obtain 96.4 wt% of insoluble part, which was found to be a random copolymer of ethene and styrene. The copolymer was characterized in detail by DSC, 13C NMR, etc.
