Abstract:
Process for the preparation of alkali metal salts of glycine or of racemic α-amino acids of the general formula (I) R1—CH(NH2)—COOH (I) in which R1 is selected from hydrogen, CH3, C2H5, CH(CH3)2, (CH2)2COOH and CH2OH, wherein an alkali metal salt of the corresponding α-ketocarboxylic acid or glyoxalic acid is reacted in the presence of at least one heterogeneous catalyst, which comprises at least one transition metal, in the presence of hydrogen with at least one nitrogen compound at temperatures in the range from 50 to 200° C., where the nitrogen compound is selected from primary and secondary amines and ammonia.

Superabsorbent mixtures M comprising at least 70% by weight of superabsorbent A having a liquid absorption of 20 g/g (T20) of less than 300 s and/or a volumetric liquid absorption under pressure 0.3 psi (2.07 kPa) (VAUL) with a τ value of less than 400 s, and at least 5% by weight of superabsorbent B having a centrifuge retention capacity (CRC) of at least 30 g/g.
Abstract:
Aqueous solution comprising (A) in the range of from 30 to 60% by weight of a complexing agent, selected from the alkali metal salts of methylglycine diacetic acid and the alkali metal salts of glutamic acid diacetic acid, (B) in the range of from 1 to 25% by weight of at least one salt of a sulfonic acid or of an organic acid, percentages referring to the total respective aqueous solution.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed towards a process for making a powder or granule containing (A) at least one chelating agent selected from methyl glycine diacetic acid (MGDA) and glutamic acid diacetate (GLDA) and iminodisuccinic acid (IDS) and their respective alkali metal salts, (B) at least one homo- or copolymer of (meth)acrylic acid, partially or fully neutralized with alkali, said process comprising the steps of (a) mixing the at least one chelating agent (A) and the at least one homo- or copolymer (B) in the presence of water, (b) removing most of said water by spray-drying or spray granulation using a gas with an inlet temperature of at least 125° C.
