Abstract
A process for preparing halogen-free, reactive polyisobutene having a terminal double bond content of more than 50 mol % and an average molecular weight M of 280-10000 dalton by the cationic polymerization in the liquid phase of isobutene or hydrocarbon mixtures comprising isobutene comprises polymerizing at from −30° C. to +40° C. in the presence of a heterogeneous polymerisation catalyst comprising one or more oxides of the elements of transition groups V and VI of the Periodic Table of the Elements or in the presence of a heterogeneous polymerization catalyst comprising one or more oxidic compounds of one or more elements of transition groups V and VI of the Periodic Table of the Elements supported on a non-zeolitic oxidic support material which is not an oxygen-containing zirconium compound, the catalyst not containing a technically effective amount of halogen.
