Abstract

Disclosed is a method for producing a syndiotactic propylene polymer having a syndiotactic pentad fraction (rrrr fraction) of not less than 85%, a melting point (Tm) within the range of 145-170° C. and a limiting viscosity [η] within the range of 0.1-10 dl/g by a solution polymerization method using a group 4 crosslinked metallocene compound, which is not accompanied by precipitation of a polymer (excluding white turbidity). Also disclosed is a production method which enables to continuously perform such a production.
