Abstract
The present invention relates to an alpha-olefin prepolymer catalytically active in an alpha-olefin (co-)polymerization comprising a transition metal, an organometallic compound and an antistatic agent. The prepolymer can be prepared by contacting the antistatic agent with a catalyst comprising the transition metal and the organometallic compound before or during an alpha-olefin prepolymerization. It can also be prepared by contacting the antistatic agent with an alpha-olefin prepolymer after a prepolymerization. It can also be prepared by a combination of the two methods. The prepolymer can be introduced into a gas phase (co-)polymerization medium for preparing polyolefin directly in a dry powder form, with a reduced amount of sheeting and agglomerates.
