In this study, novel carrier materials were synthesized by addition of metal dihalide compounds in the synthesis reaction of magnesium diethoxide using metallic magnesium, ethanol and iodine. Poly(propylene) polymerizations were then investigated with the MgCl2‐supported TiCl4 catalysts using these carrier materials. As results, magnesium diethoxide with extremely large particle sizes and spherical shapes were obtained and the angles of repose of PP particles obtained by using their catalysts as a flowability index showed high values. Furthermore, in order to confirm key points for excellent catalyst performance from detailed characterizations, SEM images, compositions and WAXS were measured.
