A new method for the preparation of functionalized polyolefins is presented. The method consists of two steps: (i) copolymerization of ethylene and/or an cy-olefin with 1-iodo-3-butene (ii) elimination or substitution reaction of the iodine atom, by reaction with an organic salt of potassium, in the presence of a crown ether.
The synthesis of ethylene/propylene/ I-iodo-3-butene copolymers with Vanadium based catalysts as well as the dehydrohalogenation reaction on the copolymers are discussed.
The first example of ethylene/propylene/ 1,3-butadiene copolymers, where the diene has exclusively 1,2 configuration, is presented.

Chlorinated organic polymers were prepared, characterized and used as supports for TiC14. The activity of the new catalysts in the polymerization of ethylene was compared with that observed for TiCl, supported on non-chlorinated polymers. It was found that the new catalysts have initial activities o
Africa, has commissioned a C5olefins isomerization process developed by Axens. The 50,000 kg/hour Iso-5 unit is being used to enhance the concentration of etherforming olefins for a t-amyl methyl ether unit. The isomerization comes after a typical acid-catalyzed process involving formation of a carb
## Abstract **Summary:** Self‐supported and MgCl~2~‐supported Ziegler‐Natta catalysts, produced by two catalyst synthesis methods are compared. Borealis Polymers OY (Finland), who supplied the catalysts, developed the catalyst synthesis methods. The first method (Method One) is based on an emulsion
