摘要:
The invention comprises an adhesion promoter for a printing ink and a printing ink comprising the adhesion promoter. The adhesion promoter comprises the product of reacting together (a) a solution of a polymer or synthetic resin (b) a sulphonic acid or a derivative of a sulphonic acid, and (c) a metal compound selected from one or more of the group consisting of a metal halide, metal alkoxide, metal halo-alkoxide or a condensed metal alkoxide, wherein the metal is selected from titanium or zirconium.

The invention describes a method of monitoring the flow of fluid within or from an oil or gas reservoir in which a solid tracer is inserted into the reservoir according to known methods, the tracer comprising at least one metal selected from caesium, niobium, tantalum, tellurium, terbium, lanthanum, gold, iridium, osmium, silver, platinum, palladium, rhenium, ruthenium, rhodium, hafnium, indium a metal of the Lanthanide series of the periodic table, or a salt thereof. A sample of fluid within or flowing from the reservoir is collected and analysed to determine the amount of said tracer contained in the sample. A perforation tool for insertion of the tracer within the formation is also described.
摘要:
Propane and/or butanes are separated from a hydrocarbon feedstock contaminated with alkyl mercaptans by fractional distillation at such a pressure that the separated overheads stream containing said propane and/or butanes is at a temperature in the range 50 to 100°C. Sufficient oxygen is introduced into the hydrocarbon feedstock to oxidise the mercaptans therein and the resultant mixture is subjected to the fractional distillation in a column including at least one bed of a catalyst capable, under the prevailing conditions, of oxidising the mercaptans to higher boiling point sulphur compounds. These higher boiling point sulphur compounds are separated as part of the liquid phase from the distillation.

摘要:
A method of tracing an aqueous liquid, particularly an aqueous urea used for addition to a selective catalytic reduction system to remove NOx from diesel exhaust, is described. The method comprises adding a tracer comprising a pre-determined amount of a phenol to the liquid. The liquid can subsequently be identified by reacting a sample with a reagent containing a predetermined amount of 4-aminoantipyrine in the presence of an initiating compound such that the reaction between the reagent and a phenol in the liquid produces a chromophore and measuring the absorbance of the resulting solution of the chromophore.
摘要:
A getter composition suitable for gettering hydrogen comprises a first metal oxide and a second metal oxide, said first metal oxide being more readily reducible in hydrogen at temperatures between 0 °C and 100 °C than said second metal oxide.
摘要:
A process for performing a catalytic Diels-Alder reaction by reacting a diene with a dienophile in the presence of a heterogeneous catalyst comprising a zeolitic material exchanged or impregnated with ions of a Lewis acidic metal is described. The catalyst, for example, copper-exchanged zeolite Y, may be treated with chiral bis(imine) compounds to direct the chirality of the reaction products. The catalyst can be separated from the reaction mixture and re-used in further Diels Alder reactions.
摘要:
An axial/radial- or radial-flow catalytic reactor (1) has inlet (2) and outlet (3) ports and a bed of particulate catalyst (6) disposed as e.g. a cylinder or cone round a central region (5) communicating with one of the ports. For at least part of the height of the catalyst bed (6), the exterior surface of the catalyst bed has a diameter less than that of the reactor thus leaving a space (8) between the exterior surface of the catalyst bed and the interior walls (7) of the reactor (1). This space is filled with a particulate material presenting less resistance to flow than the catalyst particles.
摘要:
A catalyst bed combination comprising a bed of a particulate copper-containing catalyst and, upstream of the catalyst bed, a guard bed in the form of shaped units formed from lead oxide particles and a particulate support material. The guard bed extends the life of the copper catalyst by absorbing halide contaminants in the process stream.
摘要:
An organometallic composition is described which comprises a complex of at least one orthoester of a metal having a formula M(ROAcAc)x(OR')y in which M is selected from the group consisting of titanium, zirconium and hafnium; ROAcAc denotes an ester of an alcohol ROH, in which R comprises an (optionally substituted) C1-30 cyclic, branched or linear, alkyl, alkenyl, aryl or alkyl-aryl group or a mixture thereof, with acetoacetic acid; OR' is the residue of an alcohol R'OH in which R' comprises an (optionally substituted) C7-30 cyclic, branched or linear, alkyl, alkenyl, aryl or alkyl-aryl group or a mixture thereof, and x and y are each in the range 1 - 3. The composition is useful as a curing agent for polyurethanes used in various applications.
