A process for propylene preliminary polymerization in liquid phase that occurs in a continuous preliminary polymerization reactor may include feeding a propylene monomer and a Ziegler-Natta catalyst system having (a) a pro-catalyst having an internal electron donor comprising a substituted phenylene aromatic diester, (b) a catalyst activator and optionally (c) an external donor, into the continuous preliminary polymerization reactor, wherein the feeding is carried out without pre-contact of the pro-catalyst with the catalyst activator, and also without pre-contact of the catalyst activator with the propylene monomer before entering the continuous preliminary polymerization reactor.
