Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a process for preparing 4-(2-sulfoethylcyclohexane)-1,2 diol, at ambient condition and in the presence of a buffer and an initiator, from vinylcyclohexane-1,2-diol.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a process for hydrolyzing water-insoluble epoxides, and more particularly to a process for preparing diols. Specifically disclosed is a method for preparing 4-vinylcyclohexane-1,2-diol, 1,2-cyclohexane diol and 1,2-cyclododecane diol.
Abstract:
A synthetic polymer composition comprising a blend of a synthetic thermoplastic polymer and a polymer containing a polyether chain as a constituent, wherein the article manufactured from the blend contains an active compound is disclosed. Yarns may be formed from the synthetic polymer blend and then knitted or woven into articles, such as net or fabric. The articles may be treated with active compounds such as a perfume, fabric softener, sunscreen agent, antibacterial agent, pesticide, insecticide and such other compounds that provide functionality on the article. The treated articles of the invention retain more than an effective amount of active compounds even after numerous washings.
Abstract:
The present invention relates generally to stain-resist compositions, and particularly, but not by way of limitation, to fibers and textiles treated with stain-resist composition.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for depolymerization of a mixture comprising oligomeric cyclic ethers resulting from copolymerization of at least one tetrahydrofuran and at least one other cyclic ether to recover tetrahydrofuran monomer.
