The present invention relates to a Ziegler-Natta catalyst for olefin
polymerization and a method for polymerization of olefin using the same.
Specifically, the invention relates to a Zeigler-Natta catalyst for
olefin polymerization, which is produced by a method comprising the step
of reacting a transition metal compound in which the transition metal
having an oxidation number of 4 or more is selected from Groups IV, V or
VI of the Periodic table and two or more aryloxy ligands are bound to the
transition metal, with an organomagnesium compound, to reduce said
transition metal compound to a reduced form in which the transition metal
has an oxidation number of 3, and a method for polymerization of olefin
using said catalyst.
