Description: The present invention relates to heterogeneous catalytic systems and its use in olefin polymerization. STATE OF THE ART It is very well known that homogeneous catalytic systems present a disadvantage: when they are used in suspension polymerization processes, a part of the produced polymer adheres to the reactor walls; this effect is technically called "reactor fouling". Besides, in most cases, the particle size of the obtained polymer is very small and the apparent density is low, thus the industrial production is reduced. In order to prevent the reactor from fouling and to control the size and the morphology of the polymer particles which are formed, the homogeneous system can be supported on an inorganic oxide. In the last years different preparatory strategies have been used in order to reach this aim. EPA-206794 (Exxon) discloses a catalyst which comprises a carrier, a metallocene, and an alumoxane. The carrier is first treated with alumoxane and then the metallocene is added. EP-A-295312 (Mitsui) discloses a catalyst consisting of a carrier wherein alumoxane is precipitated and then the resulting material is impregnated with a metallocene. No additional cocatalyst is used in the polymerization process. The first application claiming a process wherein the metallocene is covalently bonded to the support surface is EP 293815 (HOECHST). The metallocene contains a SiOR group that reacts with the OH groups on the surface of the support. EP 757053 (HOECHST) supports the metallocene by reacting the hydroxyls of the inorganic support with a metallocene which contains a M-R-Z-CI group, wherein M is Si, Ge or Sn and Z is B, Si, Ge or Sn. EP 757992 (Repsol) supports functionalized metallocenes being Cl-Si(Me 2 )- by reacting the organometallic compound with or without functionalized carriers. Unpublished application EP 97500187.6 in the name of the applicant supports the metallocene by reacting a metallocene containing a group OSiR" 3 wherein R" is C 1 -C 20 alkyl, C 3 -C 20 cycloalkyl, C 6 -C 20 aryl, C 7 -C 20 alkenyl or C 7 -C 20 arylalkenyl with a inorganic support. Object of the present invention is the preparation of a supported catalyst for polymerization of olefins, which results in a polymer having a very good morphology. Thanks to the methods described in the present invention, heterogeneous catalysts can be obtained; they allow to effectively control the morphology and the distribution of particle sizes, with a regular growth of the polymer around the catalyst particles. A further object of the present invention is a process for obtaining a supported catalyst by reacting a metallocene compound having an hydroxy group with an alumoxane or a trialkylaluminum. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to heterogeneous catalytic systems obtained by reacting a specific class of metallocene compounds with an inorganic support. According to the present invention the specific class of metallocene compounds is defined by general formulas I, II and III.

The metallocene complexes belonging to the general formulas II and III can be prepared through reaction of a transition metal compound of general formula MX n (E) q , wherein E is a linear or cyclic ether, q is a number between 0 and 4 and n is 3 or 4, with another compound of general formula wherein M' is an alkali metal, preferably Li, Na or K and J is a protective group that masks the OH group, for example it is a SiR II 3 or another protective group known in the art. Preferred transition metal compounds of formula MX n (E) q are TiCl 4 , ZrCl 4, HfCl 4 , TiCl 3 , TiCl 3 • 2THF. The reaction between the transition metal compound and the alkali metal derivative is preferably realized in a dry nitrogen atmosphere, by using anhydrous solvents such as linear or cyclic ethers (for example diethylether, tetrahydrofurane or dioxane), or aromatic hydrocarbons such as toluene. The group O-J is then cleaved by a fit reaction. For example, when the protective group J is SiR II 3 , the de-protection reaction can be an hydrolysis reaction carried out in acidic medium; preferably the hydrolysis reaction is made with silica. Metallocenes containing a O-SiR II 3 group can be prepared according to the method disclosed in EP 97500068.6. The compounds of formula I, II or III can be supported on a proper support. Any type of inorganic porous support can be used, for example inorganic oxides, such as: silica, alumina, silica alumina, aluminium phosphates and mixtures thereof. In a preferred embodiment the inorganic porous support has an alumoxane present onto its surface. The alumoxane can be introduced onto the support by any method known in the art. For example the alumoxane can be deposited onto the surface of the inorganic support by dissolving the alumoxane into a suitable solvent and adding the inorganic support into the solution, or it can be deposited onto the surface of the porous support by precipitation of the alumoxane in the presence of the support. It is also possible to prepare the alumoxane directly on the surface of the porous support by reacting an aluminum alkyl with the hydration water present onto the support surface. A method that can be fit for preparing supported catalysts according to this invention consists in the impregnation, under anhydrous conditions and inert atmosphere, of the solution of any metallocene of formula I, II or III, or a mixture thereof, on the supporting material at a proper temperature, preferably between -20° C and 90 °C. The supported catalyst that contains the metallocene can be obtained through filtration and washing with a proper solvent, preferably an aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbon without polar groups. Another method that can properly be used consists in depositing the metallocene on the support by using a solution of the compound that has to be heterogenised, eliminating the solvent through evaporation and then warming the solid residue at a temperature between 25 and 150° C. Besides, the resulting residue, obtained by this process, can be subjected to washing and subsequent filtration. Another method that can be fit for preparing supported catalysts according to this invention consists in reacting a metallocene compound of formula I, II or III with aluminoxane or trialkylaluminum in a non polar solvent at a temperature between -20 and 150° C. A clear advantage of this method is that it is possible to obtain catalyst system wherein the metallocene is homogeneously distributed in the solid. An advantageous aspect of this invention is that the fixation method, as a consequence of the reaction of groups OH with reactive groups of the support surface, prevents the desorption of the supported metallocene complexes. This type of interaction represents the main difference between the organo-complexes heterogeneisation mechanism and other conventional methods, where the metallocene complex generally remains physisorbed on the support surface. Supported metallocene complexes of formula I , II, III can be used in the presence of a cocatalyst for olefins polymerization or copolymerization, either in solution or suspension process. When X is an halogen, OR II or N(R II ) 2 the preferred cocatalysts are alkylaluminoxane, especially methylaluminoxane compounds, and trilakylaluminum, when X is hydrogen or alkyl the preferred cocatalysts is a Lewis acid such as boron derivatives for example B(C 6 F 5 ) 3 . In addition mixtures of both aluminoxane and boron derivatives or alkylaluminium and boron derivatives can be used as cocatalysts. When the support contains an aluminoxane on its surface, it is possible to use the supported metallocene according to the invention without adding a cocatalyst However the addition of a small amount of trialkylaluminium helps obtaining higher yields. This fact constitutes a further dear advantage in view of most polymerization processes which require large amounts of aluminoxane. The most proper polymerization procedure can change according to the chosen type of polymerization process (suspension, gas phase, solution or in bulk). For the polymerization in suspension, the cocatalyst can previously be mixed with the supported solid catalyst, can be added to the polymerization medium before the supported catalyst, or both operations can be sequentially realized. The process consists in putting in contact the monomer, or, in certain cases, the monomer and the comonomer, with a catalytic composition according to the present invention, that includes at least one supported metallocene complex of formula I, II or III, at a proper temperature and pressure. Suitable olefins that can be used as comonomers to obtain ethylene copolymers are α-olefins such as propylene, butene, hexene, octene, 4-methyl-1-pentene and cyclic olefins and can be used in proportions from 0.1 to 70% by weight of the total of the monomers. In the case of homopolymerization of ethylene, the density of polymers ranges between 0.950 and 0.970 g/cm 3 ; in the case of copolymerization of ethylene, the density is as low as 0.900 g/cm 3 . To control the molecular weight of the obtained polymers, hydrogen can optionally be used as chain transfer agent in such proportions that the hydrogen partial pressure, with respect to the olefin one, be from 0.01 to 50%. In the particular case of the polymerization technique known as suspension process or controlled particle morphology process, the used temperature will be between 30° and 100 °C, the same which is typically used in gas phase.
