ABSTRACT:
A novel process for production of polyethylene comprises polymerizing ethylene or a mixture of ethylene and a copolymerizable comonomer in the presence of a Ziegler-type catalyst at a pressure of 200 atm or more and at a temperature of 125.degree. C. or more, wherein an organic peroxide is added to the resulting polymerization product taken out of a reaction zone to deactivate the remaining catalyst. Formation of undesired oligomers or low-molecular polymers is prevented because the reaction does not proceed in the polymerization product taken out of the reaction zone. There is almost no retardation of the polymerization reaction even by the recycled use of the monomer separated and collected from the polymerization product.
