Abstract

The invention provides a process for producing polypropylene and/or random copolymers of propylene type using a stereoregular catalyst which comprises a titanium-containing solid catalyst component (A), an organoaluminum compound (B) and if required an organosilicon compound (C), wherein[I] before carrying out homopolymerization of propylene or random copolymerization of propylene with an &agr;-olefin other than propylene, the above component (A), an organoaluminum compound (B′) and if required an organosilicon compound (C′) are used, and a small amount of propylene or ethylene and/or an &agr;-olefin of 4-20 carbon atoms for pre-activation treatment is supplied to the above component (A), and[II] a catalyst which is prepared by adding an organosilicon compound (C″) to the pre-activated stereoregular catalyst in a molar ratio of 0.1-50 as Si/Ti, is used to produce polypropylene or propylene random copolymers.
