The present study reports values of reactivity ratios for ethylene/1‐hexene, ethylene/1‐octene and ethylene/1‐decene copolymerizations promoted by C 2 H 4 [Ind] 2 ZrCl 2 /MAO. The comonomer reactivities are markedly influenced by the number of carbon atoms of the α‐olefin. The ethylene/1‐decene copolymerization depends on the concentration of α‐olefin in the feed.
