Abstract:
The present invention relates to the use of isoalkane mixtures for reducing or minimizing dust emission when handling pulverulent building chemical products, a process for producing the pulverulent building chemical products and also hydraulically setting compositions containing the isoalkane mixtures of the invention.
Abstract:
The invention relates to phosphacyclohexanes of general formulae I and II, wherein the following designations, among others, apply: R can represent hydrogen, C1-100-alkyl, C7-20-aralkyl, C7-20-alkaryl, and C6-12-aryl; R to R can independently represent hydrogen, C1-20-alkyl, C7-20-aralkyl, C7-20-alkaryl, and C6-12-aryl; W, W' can independently represent single bonds or bridges comprising 1 to 20 carbon atoms, which can form part of a cyclic or aromatic group and can be interrupted by heteroatoms. Said phosphacyclohexanes are used as ligands in transition metal complexes of transition metals belonging to subgroup VIII of the periodic table.
Abstract:
Preparation of polyisobutylene whose content of terminal double bonds is more than 50% via polymerization of isobutene using a polymerization catalyst conventional for this purpose, from an industrial C4 hydrocarbon stream which comprises 1-butene, 2-butene and isobutene and which can comprise up to 3000 ppm by weight of 1,3-butadiene, by reducing the content of oxygenates in the C4 hydrocarbon stream, prior to polymerization of the isobutene, via contact with an inorganic adsorbent at a pressure of from 1 to 20 bar and at a temperature of from 20 to 220°C.
Abstract:
A hydrogenation catalyst has an active mass comprising nickel, copper and manganese deposited on a support comprising at least 90% by weight of silicon dioxide. The support has a BET surface area in the range from 190 to 370 m 2 /g. The catalyst has improved product selectivity in the catalytic hydrogenation of aldehydes to alcohols, and retains its high selectivity at the high temperatures.
