Which consequence results when a catalyst poisons a Ziegler-Natta polymerization process?

💡 Explanation

Decreased stereoregularity occurs because catalyst poisoning interrupts the surface polymerization mechanism reducing the ability to control the stereochemistry during chain growth. Therefore, the polymer becomes less ordered, rather than increasing order because the active sites are blocked.
