摘要:
A process for producing corrosion inhibiting particles comprising binding corrosion inhibiting anions to particles of an inorganic oxide by ion-exchange to form anion-exchanged particles, the anions of which are releasible by further ion-exchange in which the inorganic oxide particles having surface hydroxyl groups are first contacted with an acidic solution containing labile anions at a pH sufficiency below 7 for the protons of the hydroxyl groups to be replaced by the labile anions and thereafter contacting the particles of the labile anion-exchanged inorganic oxide with a solution containing the required corrosion inhibiting anions so that the labile anions are replaced by the corrosion inhibiting anions. The labile anions are anions of water soluble, acid compounds which have a lower affinity for the oxide surface than the required corrosion inhibiting anions and which form a soluble salt with the cation of the compound providing the corrosion inhibiting anions. The process facilitates the use of corrosion inhibiting anions which are sensitive to low pH in the preparation of corrosion inhibiting particles. In particular the process is useful for producing molybdate exchange inorganic oxide particles.

Water-insoluble polyoxyalkylene graft copolymers are effective anti-foam agents for reducing foaming in crude oil/gas separators The copolymers are of formula:
wherein R is an ethylene, propylene or butene group or a mixture thereof; R' is a hydrocarbyl group containing 1 to 8 carbon atoms; R" is a hydroxyl group, an alkoxy group or an alkyl group containing 1 to 8 carbon atoms;
(a) is a number in the range 100 to 250; (b) is a number in the range 1 to 6; (c) is a number in the range 1 to 10: and (d) is a number in the range 10 to 100.
They are particularly useful in breaking microgas dispersions and foams resulting from crude oils with a high gas to oil ratio.
摘要:
A process for the production of a dialkyl carbonate, e.g. dimethyl carbonate, or a dialkyl oxalate, e.g. dimethyl oxalate, from butane, oxygen, carbon monoxide and an alcohol is provided in a series of integrated process steps. In the case of a dialkyl oxalate, the product can be hydrogenated further to produce an ether of ethylene glycol.
摘要:
Process for the production of synthesis gas and higher hydrocarbons in which a saturated hydrocarbon and an oxygen containing gas having a ratio of hydrocarbon to oxygen of greater than the stoichiometric ratio for complete combustion are introduced into a bed of an inert particulate material. The upward flow rate of the hydrocarbon/oxygen containing gas stream is sufficient to fluidise or to produce a spouting action of the bed material, whereby the particulate material is thrown up above the bed surface and subsequently falls back into the bed. The hydrocarbon and oxygen containing gas are ignited and reacted together, and the products of the reaction withdrawn.
摘要:
@ An HIPR emulsion of bitumen in water is prepared by a method which comprises directly mixing 70 to 98% by volume of bitumen having a viscosity in the range 200 to 500,000 mPa.s at the mixing temperature with 30 to 2% by volume of an aqueous solution of an emulsifying surfactant, percentages being expressed as percentages by volume of the total mixture. Mixing is effected under low shear conditions in the range 10 to 1,000 reciprocal seconds in such manner that an emulsion is formed comprising highly distorted bitumen droplets having mean droplet diameters in the range 2 to 50 micron separated by thin films of water. The emulsions can be cut back to provide stable emulsions of lower bitumen content which are useful in road- making and the formation of protective coatings.

The hemicellulose content of a mixture of cellulose and hemicellulose is reduced by contacting the mixture with hemicellulase obtained by culturing the bacterium Saccharomonospora viridis in the absence of a cellulase-producing organism.

This invention relates to a method of improving the catalytic activity of a freshly made zeolite loaded with gallium ions by first treating with steam and then with hydrogen. Steam and hydrogen treatment may be carried out before or after loading with gallium simultaneously or successively. It has been found that a combination of steam and hydrogen treatments gives high conversions of hydrocarbon feeds and high selectivity to aromatics.

The present invention relates to unsaturated polyester resin compositions modified by addition of a copolymerisable monomer and an epoxy resin to improve the physical properties of the composition. The copolymerisable monomer is one or more unsaturated organic compounds salected from carboxylic acids, carboxylic acid anhydrides, amines, amides, alcohols and thiols and the composition also contains an epoxy resin. The copolymerisable monomer may be a mixture of the unsaturated organic compound and a vinyl monomer selected from styrene, methyl methacrylate and vinyl toluene. The compositions after cure are particularly suitable for producing glass-fibre reinforced polymers to be made into shapes eg by wet lay up without use of compression moulds, or as sheet moulding compounds for construction of eg car bodies.
