A mixture of monomers essentially consisting of propylene and ethylene is polymerized in contact with a halogen-containing catalyst essentially free of microcrystalline precipitates, said catalyst resulting from mixing an alkyl aluminum compound with a hydrocarbon-soluble vanadium compound. The molar ratio of the propylene and ethylene in contact with the catalyst is maintained at a value such that an elastomeric, substantially amorphous, linear copolymerizate is produced, and is recovered from the reaction mass.
