Co‐ and ter‐polymerization of ethylene with Fischer‐Tropsch derived olefins having odd carbon number and branched olefins are investigated. A method of preparation of a robust, high productivity Ziegler‐Natta catalyst suitable for ethylene co‐polymerization with Fischer Tropsch olefin is reviewed. In supporting titanium tetrachloride, an attempt was made to control the titanium oxidation state. The resulting experimental data were fitted to a sub‐sites model that associates titanium oxidation state with catalyst activity.
