…metal catalysts—namely, a combination of titanium trichloride, or TiCl3, and triethylaluminum, or Al(C2H5)3—bring about the polymerizations of organic compounds with carbon-carbon double bonds under mild conditions to form polymers of high molecular weight and highly ordered (stereoregular) structures. Certain of these polymers are of great commercial
