Abstract:
A method is disclosed for separating impurity components, UV absorbers and/or UV absorber precursors contained in an ethylene glycol-water stream thereby desirably allowing the recovery of the glycols contained in such stream in an economical and efficient manner. Specifically, these undesirable components are separated by contacting the ethylene glycol-water stream with a suitable semi-permeable membrane to effect such separation.
Abstract:
Oxidative coupling of lower alkane to higher hydrocarbon is conducted using supported catalyst comprising at least one of barium hydroxide, strontium hydroxide, barium and strontium carbonate in the presence of halogen component. High yields of higher hydrocarbon can be achieved with long catalyst life.
Abstract:
Oxidative coupling of lower alkane to higher hydrocarbon is conducted using catalyst comprising at least one of alkali metal and alkaline earth metal and an activity-enhancing amount of silver in the presence of halogen component.
Abstract:
A method of coating a substrate with an aqueous coating composition that includes an alkali-swellable associative thickener is disclosed. The associative thickener is produced from a monoethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid, a monoethylenically unsaturated monomer lacking surfactant capacity, a non-ionic urethane monomer, and, optionally, a polyethylenically unsaturated monomer.
Abstract:
An improved support vanadium catalyst, especially an improved Beran et al. catalyst system and ethylene polymerization process in which the improvement derives from fixing the promoter to a component of the catalyst composition such that it is a molecularly structural component of the catalyst and thus is not separately fed to the polymerization reaction, but instead is part of the catalyst composition fed to the reaction.
Abstract:
This invention relates to a process for making amines having a high yield weight percent of linear tetraethylenepentamine (L-TEPA) and hydroxyethyldiethylenetriamine (HEDETA) by condensing an amino compound in the presence of a condensation catalyst selected from a Group IVB metal oxide, a Group VIB metal-containing substance and a promoted condensation catalyst. This invention also relates to an alkyleneamines producers composition rich in L-TEPA and HEDETA.
Abstract:
This invention relates to a process for making amines having a high yield weight percent of diethylenetriamine (DETA) by condensing an amino compound in the presence of a condensation catalyst selected from a Group IVB metal oxide, a metallic phosphate having a cyclic structure or an acyclic structure which is transformed into a cyclic structure during the process, a metallic polyphosphate having a condensed structure, a Group VIB metal-containing substance and a promoted condensation catalyst. This invention also relates to an alkyleneamines producers composition rich in DETA.
Abstract:
Alkali metal doped double perovskites containing manganese and at least one of cobalt, iron and nickel are useful in the oxidative coupling of alkane to higher hydrocarbons.
Abstract:
Perovskites of the structure A2B2C3O10 are useful as catalysts for the oxidative coupling of lower alkane to heavier hydrocarbons. A is alkali metal; B is lanthanide or lanthanum, cerium, neodymium, samarium, praseodymium, gadolinium or dysprosium; and C is titanium.
Abstract:
The precursor coating compositions contain water and at least one organic solvent and are particularly suitable for being admixed with at least one supercritical fluid used as a viscosity reduction diluent and this resultant liquid mixture of supercritical fluid and precursor coating composition is sprayed onto a substrate to be coated. Processes for spraying this precursor mixture are also disclosed.
