Propylene was polymerized in gas phase over a \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}${\rm TiCl}_3 \cdot \frac{1}{3}{\rm AlCl}_3$\end{document} (Stauffer Type AA) Catalyst with AlEt 2 Cl cocatalyst both with and without H 2 present. The effects of polymerization temperature, monomer concentration, catalyst composition, and hydrogen were investigated. The experiments were carried out at operating conditions approaching industrial practice.
