## Abstract MgCl~2~βsupports for ZieglerβNatta polymerization processes were prepared by an activation method based on the thermal removal of ethyl formate (EF) from adducts between EF and MgCl~2~. The various steps of activation were investigated by Xβray diffraction (XRD) and infrared spectroscop

β¦ Synopsis
Ah&met-Polymerizations
of propylene were carried out by using the catalyst system MgCl,~ID~TiCl,-AlEt,.ED, where ID (internal donor) was an organic diester and ED (external donor) was a silane. The effect of preparation conditions on the chemical composition and morphology of the supports and catalysts are discussed with the aid of elemental analysis and microscopy. The ethanol content had a strong effect on the MgCl,.nEtOH adduct preparation, and its precipitation and dealcoholation are very important factors that must be considered for good morphology to be attained in the spherical catalysts and polymers. The rate profiles in propylene EC180 suspension polymerization changed with the type of external donor and Al/Ti molar ratio.

MgCl, supports were prepared by the recrystallization method with variation of agitation speed and MgCl, concentration of the MgC1,-methanol-decane mixture. It was found that the particle size of MgCl, and MgCl,/TiCl, could be controlled by changing the MgCl, concentration in a methanol droplet or b
A soluble ethylene catalyst were obtained by mixing a methylene dichloride solution of dichlorobislT-cyclopentadienyl) titanium (Cp2TiCI2) with a heptane solution of ethylaluminium sesquichloride (AlzEt3C13) or of diethylaluminium chloride {AIEt2CI). Ethylene was polymerized using these catalysts; t
