The cover picture shows that improved titanium catalysts based on calixarene ligands can display high activity for the production of ultra‐high‐molecular‐weight polyethylene (UHMWPE). Both the coordination mode of the titanium and the conformation of the calixarene ligand have been found to be significant for the catalytic performance. Details are discussed in the article by M. Taoufik, I. Bonnamour et al. on p. 1349 ff.
