Abstract
A catalyst for olefin polymerization is provided which comprises, as the components, a) a metallocene compound, b) an ionizing ionic compound, c) an organoaluminum compound, and d) a Lewis base compound. This catalyst has a stable active species and improves productivity of an olefin polymer without deterioration of the catalytic activity the metallocene is represented by General Formula (1) or (2) where Cp-containing ligands may be Cp, fluorenyl, indenyl or tetrahydroindenyl and where the metal is a group 4 metal of the periodic table.
