    Abstract: Polymers of 4-methylpentene-1 alone or with up to 10 wt. % of other 2-18C -alpha-mono-olefines as comonomer, are obtd. by polymsn. at 90-150 degrees in the presence of hydrogen at a partial pressure of 0.1 to 10.00 atm., and using a Ziegler-Natta catalyst system comprising (a) a TiCl3 component and (b) an alkylaluminium component, the atomic ratio of Ti:Al in the system amtg. to from 1:1 to 1:100. By use of temp. of 90-150 degrees C, which is higher than used in the otherwise comparable known process, a higher yield per unit catalyst and per unit time is obtD. without deleterious effects on product crystallinity. The polymers are valuable for making transparent moulded or injection moulded articles which are heat resistant to 150 degrees C.
