Abstract

Disclosed are spherical magnesium-based catalyst supports and methods of using the same in a Ziegler-Natta catalyst system for the polymerization of an olefin. The spherical magnesium-based catalyst supports are made by reacting a magnesium halide, a haloalkylepoxide, and a phosphate acid ester in an organic solvent that does not have to contain substantial amounts of toluene.
