Promoters are described for vanadium-based catalysts used in the (co)polymerization of olefins and, in particular, in the production of ethylene/propylene (EPR) or ethylene/propylene/diene (EPDM) elastomeric copolymers. The promoters of the present invention belong to the group of compounds having general formula I: wherein:

Chlorinated promoters for vanadium-based polymerization catalysts

The present invention relates to a supported catalyst containing titanium, its preparation and it use in the homo-, co-, and ter-polymerization of olefin-unsaturated compounds. The present invention also relates to a catalytic system comprising a supported catalyst based on titanium and a co-catalyst selected from organo-derivatives of aluminum. More specifically, the present invention relates to catalyst supported on silica, obtained by reacting a titanium halocarboxylate and a magnesium halocarboxylate with an aluminum chloroakylderivative, in the presence of a carrier consisting of high porosity silica. The above reaction essentially takes place in the pores of the silica itself.

Supported catalyst containing active titanium in the homo, co-, and ter-polymerization of olefin-unsaturated compounds

A process is described for the preparation of ethylene copolymers having a wide molecular weight distribution, characterized in that it is carried out in the presence of meso- and rac-stereoisomeric mixtures of metallocene compounds having general formula (I), wherein A' and A&#x2033;, the same or different, are a radical of the &#x3b7;?5-tetrahydroindenyl type (Ia) 

Process for the preparation of ethylene copolymers

A description follows of random butadiene-isoprene copolymers with a trans-1,4 structure, having a butadiene/isoprene molar composition ranging from 98/2 to 32/68, the above copolymers being crystalline or amorphous depending on the isoprene content. The process for the preparation of the above copolymers is also described, in the present of a catalytic system which comprises: (a) a first component consisting of a vanadium compound selected from: (a1) compounds having general formula (Ia) VO(L)(X)wherein n is an integer from 1 to 3 and m ranges from zero to 2, n+m being equal to 2 or 3; (a2) compounds having general formula (Ib) V(L)(X)wherein p is an integer from 1 to 4, q ranges from zero to 3, the sum of p+q being equal to 3 or 4; wherein L is a bidentate ligand and X is a halogen, preferably Chlorine; (b) a second component selected from aluminoxanes and relative derivatives.
