Summary

TiCl4 and MgCl2 were dissolved in hydrocarbon or halogenated hydrocarbon solvents using phosphate or phosphonate donor. Mg(OH)Cl reacted with TiCl4 with HCl gas evolution above 100°C in the presence of phosphate or phoshonate donor, and a homogeneous solution of [TiCl3-O-MgCl2] complex was obtained. The soluble catalysts and triisobutylaluminium as co-catalyst showed high activities for the copolymerization of ethylene with propylene. The copolymers obtained were rubbery and possessed very low crystallinities.
