Abstract
The present invention provides olefin polymerization catalysts and processes for preparing a polypropylene and a propylene block copolymer using the olefin polymerization catalysts. The olefin polymerization catalyst (1) of the invention is formed from: (I-1) a contact product obtained by contacting: (A) a solid titanium catalyst component, (B) an organometallic compound catalyst component, and (C) a specific organosilicon compound; (II-1) (D) a specific polyether compound; and optionally, (III) an organometallic compound catalyst component. The olefin polymerization catalyst (2) of the invention is formed from: (I-2) a contact product obtained by contacting: (A) a solid titanium catalyst component, (B) an organometallic compound catalyst component, and (D) a specific polyether compound; (II-2) (C) a specific organosilicon compound; and optionally, (III) an organometallic compound catalyst component. The propylene is polymerized in the presence of the above-mentioned olefin polymerization catalysts to prepare highly isotactic polypropylene. The propylene block copolymer is prepared by the steps of polymerizing propylene to form a polypropylene component and copolymerizing ethylene and an α-olefin of 3 to 20 carbon atoms to form an ethylene/α-olefin copolymer component in the presence of the polymerization catalysts.
