Abstract
Thermoplastic rubbers comprising propylene-ethylene copolymers containing from 50% to 90% by weight of propylene and showing, on X-rays examination in the unoriented state, crystallinity of the polypropylene and/or polyethylene type are disclosed. Also disclosed is a method for preparing the thermoplastic rubbers by polymerizing mixtures of propylene and ethylene in the presence of a catalyst obtained by mixing PA1 (A) a catalyst-forming component which is (a) an addition and/or substitution product of an electron-donor compound (or a Lewis base) with an Al-trialkyl compound, or (b) the addition reaction product of an electron-donor compound with an Al-alkyl compound containing two or more aluminum atoms bound to each other through an oxygen or nitrogen atom, component (A) being further characterized in that it is prepared by reacting 1.0 mole of an Al-alkyl compound with 0.1-1.0 mole of a Lewis base which is an ester of an organic or inorganic oxygenated acid, a polyamine compound, or any Lewis base other than said esters and polyamine compounds, provided that, in the latter case, component (B) of the catalyst is a complex of a halogenated titanium compound with a polyamine; and P…
