Abstract:
Formaldehyde is manufactured by oxidative dehydrogenation of methanol in the presence of a silver catalyst and of certain amounts of steam and formaldehyde, some formaldehyde and a part of the water being withdrawn from the reaction mixture and recycled. The formaldehyde manufactured by the process may be used as a disinfectant, tanning agent, reducing agent and starting material for the manufacture of synthetic resin, adhesives and plastics.
Abstract:
1480921 Stabilizing aqueous formaldehyde BASF AG 25 Nov 1974 [26 Nov 1973] 50896/74 Heading C2C Aqueous formaldehyde solutions are stabilized by means of a bis-guanamine of formula wherein the two substituent on the phenylene ring are in m or p-position to each other. 0À001 to 0À5% by weight of stabilizer may be used and the formaldehyde solution may contain 28-65% by weight of formaldehyde. The stabilizer may be added as a stock solution in a formaldehyde solution of higher strength than that to be stabilized and having a pH of 2À5 to 5À8 and the latter is preferably kept at 40-80‹ C. for 10-30 hours before adding the stock solution.
Abstract:
The production of formaldehyde by oxidizing dehydrogenation of methanol in the presence of a silver catalyst which consists of three or more layers each of specific weight and particles of specific particle size and having a specific total layer thickness. Formaldehyde prepared according to the process of the invention is a disinfectant, tanning agent, reducing agent and valuable starting material for the production of synthetic resins, adhesives and plastics.
Abstract:
Production of formaldehyde by oxidizing dehydrogenation of methanol in the presence of a silver catalyst and a tertiary or secondary amine. The formaldehyde which can be prepared by the invention is a disinfectant, tanning agent, reducing agent and valuable starting material for the production of synthetic resins, adhesives and plastics.
