Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A new polymerization catalyst system comprising an aluminum compound and a transition metal compound on an alumina-based aerogel support, a process for preparing the polymerization catalyst system and use of the catalyst system for polymerization and copolymerization of alpha-olefins are disclosed. A heat-activated alumina-based aerogel useful as a catalyst support and having a morphology by transmission electron microcopy comprising extremely thin folded film-like ribbons or plates and having a high BET surface area, high pore volume, and low bulk density is also disclosed.
