Abstract

A method of making a solid catalyst component for production of a polyolefin, including the steps of: a) dissolving a halide-containing magnesium compound in a mixture including alkylepoxide, an organic phosphorous compound, a carboxylic acid or anhydride, and a hydrocarbon solvent to form a homogenous solution; b) optionally treating the homogeneous solution with a halogenating agent; c) treating the homogenous solution with a first titanium halide compound in the presence of a surface modifier and optionally a first electron donor to form a solid precipitate, wherein, if present, the first electron donor is an ether; d) optionally treating the solid precipitate with a second electron donor; and e) treating the solid precipitate with a second titanium halide compound and optionally with a second electron donor to form the solid catalyst component.
