Abstract

High molecular weight polybutenes having a viscosity SSU above 1,000,000 at 210.degree. F. are produced by using a three-component catalyst system containing an alkyl aluminium halide, tertiary butyl halide and a metal halide selected from SnCl.sub.4, SnBr.sub.4, TiCl.sub.4, and TiBr.sub.4. The reaction phase is homogeneous and the catalyst components are added as a solution in an inert solvent. The polyisobutene product so produced are useful additives for oil, adhesives and mastics.
