Process for the preparation of porous polymers and polymers obtainable thereof

Abstract

A process for preparing porous olefin polymers comprising bringing into contact in a polymerization reactor, at a temperature T, one or more olefins of the formula (I) CH═CHR, Rbeing hydrogen, a C–C-alkyl or a C–C-aryl group, with a catalyst obtained by reacting a solid catalyst component in the form of spheroidal particles comprising a compound of Ti or V not containing metal-π bonds and a Mg halide, optionally containing one or more electron donor compounds, with an aluminum-alkyl (Al-alkyl) compound, then raising the temperature up to the polymerization temperature, said process being characterized in that: a) if the temperature Tis lower than 40° C., the temperature is raised up to the polymerization temperature is such a way that, for a time of at least one minute after the introduction temperature in such a way that, for a time of at least one minute after the introduction of the catalyst system into the reactor, the temperature of the reaction Tfulfills the following condition of formula (II) wherein m is the time expressed in minutes employed for reaching the temperature T; or b) if temperature Tis 40° C. or higher, the reactor is maintained for a time of at least one minute at a temperature of at least 40° C.
