Abstract
The present invention relates to a process for preparing an activating support for metallocene complexes in the polymerisation of olefins comprising the steps of: I) providing a support prepared consisting in particles formed from at least one porous mineral oxide; II) optionally fixing the rate of silanols on the surface of the support; III) functionalising the support with a solution containing a fluorinated functionalising agent; IV) heating the functionalised and fluorinated support of step c) under an inert gas and then under oxygen; V) retrieving an active fluorinated support. That activating support is used to activate a metallocene catalyst component for the polymerisation of olefins.
