Abstract
The present invention relates to a process for (co-)polymerizing ethylene in a gaseous phase, by means of a fluidized and/or mechanically stirred bed reactor, with the help of a catalyst comprising a chromium oxide and a titanium compound, supported on a refractory oxide and activated by a heat treatment. The process is characterized in that the catalyst is introduced into the reactor in the form of a dry powder consisting of particles free from prepolymer and the (co-)polymerization is carried out in the presence of an organoaluminium compound. The (co-)polymer thus obtained has substantially low catalyst residues, and an improved stress cracking resistance.
