Abstract
Ethene was copolymerized in liquid propene with a high activity hetero geneous MgCl2/TiCl4-triethylaluminium catalyst and with homogeneous VO Cl3-diethylaluminiumchloride and Cp2ZrCl2-methylaluminoxane catalysts to study the effect of the catalyst system on the properties of the pr oducts. The titanium catalyst gave crystallizable ethene blockies at h igh ethene contents and the zirconium catalyst gave the most random di stribution of the monomers. The differences in the properties of the p olymers were not so great as expected.
