Abstract
An olefin polymerization catalyst system, comprising a catalyst represented by the general formula CrR4, wherein each R is independently a hydrocarbyl or substituted hydrocarbyl, with the proviso that R may not be a cyclopentadienyl group, an activator represented by the general formula, MQ2, where M is a Group II metal, where each Q is independently an alkyl, or substituted alkyl; and a support. The support may be organic or inorganic. Ethylene and one or more olefins may be polymerized by the catalyst system.
