摘要:
The present invention provides a process for producing a vanadium/phosphorus oxide catalyst by (i) preparing a catalyst precursor powder containing vanadium, phosphorus and an optional promoter element; (ii) converting the catalyst precursor powder into an activated catalyst by heat treatment; (iii) and compressing the activated catalyst into a desired shape to form the vanadium/phosphorus oxide catalyst. The vanadium/phosphorus oxide catalyst may be used in the production of maleic anhydride by the catalytic oxidation of hydrocarbon feed streams.

Provided herein are compositions useful as ink or coatings which contain novel dispersants that are capable of dispersing pigments which are traditionally difficult to disperse while maintaining acceptable levels of viscosity. Use of dispersants as taught herein enables the preparation of a wide variety of inks and coatings having high pigment loading and existing within a conventionally-useful viscosity range.
摘要:
An activated porous phosphorus/vanadium oxide catalyst adapted for the catalytic oxidation of a hydrocarbon to produce a carboxylic acid anhydride. The catalyst comprises a shaped body having a volume of at least about 0.02 cc, a phosphorus content of between about 1.05 and about 1.20, a B.E.T. surface area of at least about 15 m2/g, an average vanadium oxidation state of between about 4.06 and about 4.3, a total pore volume of at least about 0.15 cc/g, a normalized apparent shaped body density of between about 1.0 and about 2.0 g/cc, and a crush strength of at least about 4 pounds. At least about 20 % of the pore volume of the catalyst is constituted of pores having a diameter between about 0.1 and about 3.3 νM, and at least about 40 % of the pore volume is constituted of pores having a diameter of less than about 0.1 νM. The catalyst is prepared by mixing a particulate phosphorus/vanadium oxide precursor with a pore modification agent to produce a modified catalyst precursor composition, forming the modified precursor composition into a predetermined shape, and removing the pore modification agent substantially at a temperature below 300 °C, preferably using air as a stripping gas.

Surfactants that further improve the bioefficacy of herbicides. The surfactants comprise (i) phosphate monoesters of tallow amine ethoxylates, alone or in combination with phosphate diesters of tallow amine ethoxylates, or (ii) alkoxylated phosphate monoesters of tallow amine ethoxylates, alone or in combination with alkoxylated phosphate diesters of tallow amine ethoxylates. The present invention also provides for herbicide compositions that contain the surfactants of the present invention. The herbicide compositions comprise a herbicidal active ingredient, a surfactant of the present invention, and optionally, one or more formulation aids. The herbicide compositions of the present invention are expected to have a reduced tendency to cause eye and skin irritation. The present invention additionally provides for a method of controlling unwanted weeds or vegetation using the herbicide compositions of the present invention.
摘要:
An improved process and apparatus for the preparation and recovery of maleic anhydride in which the recovery of maleic anhydride from a gaseous reaction mixture includes absorbing the maleic anhydride in a solvent and subsequently stripping maleic anhydride from the solvent to obtain crude maleic anhydride product and regenerated absorbing solvent containing polymeric tars and other contaminants. In accordance with the improvement, at least a portion of the regenerated solvent is contacted in an agitated extraction zone with an aqueous liquid extractant to hydrolyze the polymeric tars, transfer water-soluble contaminants to the aqueous extract phase and produce a mixture comprising an aqueous extract phase containing water-soluble contaminants and an organic raffinate phase comprising regenerated absorbing solvent having a reduced concentration of contaminants. The aqueous extract and organic raffinate are recycled and used again to absorb maleic anhydride.
