Abstract
Olefins are polymerized in the presence of a catalyst which is prepared by the controlled reaction of an aliphatic alcohol such as n-propyl alcohol and a mixture of an alkyl magnesium compound such as n-butyl, sec-butyl magnesium and a silicon tetrahalide such as SiCl.sub.4. After washing the precipitate several times with a hydrocarbon such as hexane, it is suspended in a hydrocarbon such as hexane and a titanium compound such as TiCl.sub.4 is added after which a suitable reducing agent such as diethyl aluminum chloride is added. The thus formed solid catalyst is washed several times with a hydrocarbon solvent such as hexane.
