ABSTRACT:
The present invention discloses a method for preparing an heterogeniseded catalyst component comprising the steps of: a) providing a halogenated precursor component of formula (I) —X—[—CH2]—CH3b) reacting the halogenated precursor with an ionic liquid precursor in a solvent to prepare an ionic liquid; IL+X−c) optionally, reacting the intermediate IL+X−with a salt C+A−, wherein C+is a cation that can be selected from K+, Na+, NH4+, and A−is an anion that can be selected from PF6−, SbF6−, BF4−, (CF3—SO2)2N−CIO4—, CF3SO3−, NO3— or CF3CO2−. d) using the ionic liquid prepared in step b) to heterogenise a metallocene component of formula (II) R″(CpRm)(Cp′Rn)MQ2wherein Cp and C′p are independently selected from substituted or unsubstituted cyclopentadienyl groups M is a metal selected from Group 4 of the Periodic Table, R″ is a structural bridge imparting stereorigidity between Cp and Cp′ and Q is a halogen or an alkyl having from 1 to 12 carbon atoms; e) heterogenising the ionic liquid/metal system by addition of an apolar solvent inducing the precipitation reaction; f) retrieving a metallocene catalyst component heterogenised by an ionic liquid. It also discloses an active catalyst system hetero genised by an ionic liquid and its use in the polymerisation of olefins.
