A titanium hydrocarbyloxide is solubilized by reacting with a water soluble polyhydroxy organic compound and the resulting product then combined with a strong acid to form a water soluble titanium composition which is combined with an inorganic catalyst support such as silica. The resulting composition is ideally suited as a support for a chromium olefin polymerization catalyst. The procedure results in an inexpensive way or producing a catalyst capable of giving high melt flow polymer under slurry conditions. |
