Abstract
A supported alpha-olefin polymerization catalyst composition is synthesized by reacting (1) a slurry of a solid catalyst carrier in a non-polar solvent, e.g., hexane, with a dialkyl organomagnesium composition; (2) contacting the slurry of step (1) with a hydroxyl group-containing compound, e.g., an alcohol; (3) contacting the slurry of step (2) with at least one transition metal compound; (4) removing the non-polar solvent to obtain a dry-flowing powder; and, (5) activating the powder with trimethylaluminum. The resulting catalyst composition is extremely active in polymerizing C.sub.2 -C.sub.10 alpha-olefins and exhibits very good higher (C.sub.3 -C.sub.10) alpha-olefin incorporation properties.
