Method for producing Philips catalyst for olefin polymerization having improved productivity by particle shape forming method

摘要

In a process for producing Phillips catalysts in which an oxidic support material is treated in suspension with a chromium salt solution and subsequently, after removing the solvent, calcined in an oxygen-containing atmosphere at above 300° C., the oxidic support material and/or the catalyst after calcination are/is, according to the present invention, comminuted until a mean particle size of 100 mum has been reached and the proportion of particles having a size of 50 mum is at least 30%, preferably in the range from 40 to 80%. A process for preparing homopolymers or copolymers of ethene in a loop reactor at from 30 to 150° C. under a pressure in the range from 0.2 to 15 MPa in the presence of a catalyst produced by the process of the present invention is also provided.
