In this study, bis(benzoyloxy)dimethylsilane (SDE) was developed as a non-phthalate selectivity control agent (internal donor (ID) and external donor (ED)) in MgCl 2 -supported Ziegler-Natta (ZN) systems. The impact of SDE as an ID was investigated in regards to chemical composition, morphology, adsorption behavior (using FTIR spectroscopy, WAXD and SEM studies) and the propylene polymerization performance of the catalyst. The results of the adsorption behavior of SDE revealed that SDE, while able to stabilize the electronically unsaturated surfaces of MgCl 2 [(104) and (110)], has a rather high tendency to be absorbed on strongly acidic Mg ions at the corners of these crystals. The catalyst with optimum SDE content as an ID afforded a system with reasonable activity and isotacticity (even in the absence of ED) along with broader molecular weight distribution (PDI: 6.2-10) and greater flexural modulus than phthalate-based ZN systems. SDE was also used as a new ED in most widely used fourth- and fifth-generation catalyst systems. The results revealed that in fifth-generation catalyst systems, there was an increase in hydrogen response (&gt;40%) along with an increase of activity without any change in the thermal properties of the final polymer in comparison to a conventional ED (alkoxy silane).
