Abstract

Dehydroxylated oxide (e.g. silica) particles are obtained by reacting oxide particles, having surface hydroxyl groups, with a dialkylcarbonate or diarylcarbonate. The resulting products have surface alkoxy or aryloxy groups and significantly reduced hydroxyl content. The treated oxide particles are especially suitable for use as catalyst supports, and especially as polyolefin catalyst supports.
