Abstract

Activator solid support for metallocenes as catalysts in the polymerization of olefins, characterized in that it consists of a group of support particles for a solid catalytic component, which are formed from at least one porous mineral oxide, the said particles having been modified in order to carry, on the surface, aluminium and/or magnesium Lewis-acid sites of formula: ##STR1## functionalization agent having reacted with --OH radicals carried by the base particles of the support, the functionalization reaction having been followed by a fluorination reaction. Also disclosed is a catalytic system including a metallocene catalyst, which has optionally been subjected to a prealkylation treatment; a cocatalyst; and an activator solid support for metallocene, as defined above.
