摘要:
A process is described for preparation of oxymethylene homo- and copolymers. This encompasses heterogeneous polymerization of a monomer which forms oxymethylene groups in the presence of an acetal of formaldehyde and of an initiator for cationic polymerization, followed by the deactivation of the polymer in a homogeneous phase via treatment with a basic aprotic solvent or with an aprotic solvent which comprises a base. Oxymethylene homopolymers with very high stability are also described.

Processes are described which comprise: (a) providing a mixture comprising a cyclic formal and water, wherein the mixture has a cyclic formal concentration and a water concentration; (b) bringing the mixture into contact with an organically selective membrane; (c) creating a pressure differential across the membrane; and (d) obtaining a permeate having a lower water concentration and a higher cyclic formal concentration than the mixture, and a retentate having a higher water concentration and a lower cyclic formal concentration than the mixture.
摘要:
A process and an apparatus are described for preparation of oxymethylene polymers. This process encompasses polymerization, in a homogeneous phase, of a monomer which forms oxymethylene groups, as far as 90% of maximum conversion in the presence of an acetal of formaldehyde and of an initiator for cationic polymerization, followed by deactivation of the reaction mixture. The resultant oxymethylene polymers have alkyl ether end groups and are extremely stable.
摘要:
The invention relates to a process for preparing trioxane from aqueous formaldehyde solutions in the presence of acidic catalysts. The reaction of the formaldehyde to give trioxane takes place in a reaction column equipped with a circulation evaporator, and the formaldehyde solution used as the starting solution is mixed with a sidestream from the bottom of the reaction column and fed to the upper section of the reaction column via a tubular reactor. The process is notable for a low energy requirement and little by-product formation.
摘要:
The invention relates to a process for preparation of polymer blends comprising at least one polyoxymethylene and at least one thermoplastic elastomer, where the thermoplastic elastomer is micropelletized by a pelletizing process and the pellets obtained in a) are dispersed in the polyoxymethylene matrix via melting of the components and mixing of these at low shear forces, and also to the use of micropelletized thermoplastic elastomers for preparation of polyoxymethylenes with low formaldehyde emission.
摘要:
Copolymers are described containing blocks of the structural repeat units of the formula I and blocks containing structural units of the formula II [—O—CH2—]x, (I) [—O—R1—], (II) where R1 is a divalent radical derived from a hydroxy-terminated aliphatic or cycloaliphatic oligomer or polymer which, where appropriate, has ether groups and/or carbonyloxy groups in the chain, and x is a whole number, at least 10.The copolymers may be used for producing moldings.

摘要:
Process for continuous preparation of homo- and copolyoxymethylenes with stable end groups in a homogeneous phase, in which in a tubular reactor with static mixing elements cyclic formaldehyde oligomers are polymerized in the presence of protonic acids as initiators in amounts of 0.005 to 500 ppm in a polymerization zone, in which the residence time of the reaction components in this zone is 0.1 to 10 min and in which the initiator is deactivated immediately after polymerization, there being a fluid transition between the polymerization and deactivator zones which is determined solely by the addition of deactivator, and in which, besides deactivation, stabilization of the chain ends is carried out in the presence of residual monomers, with the volatile constituents being removed from the reaction mixture in a subsequent vent unit. Stabilization is carried out in the presence of alkaline substances, either at temperatures of 150.degree. C. to 250.degree. C., if necessary in the presence of water or primary alcohols, or at 175.degree. C. to 250.degree. C. in the absence of these additives.
摘要:
A process for the catalytic preparation of trioxane from formaldehyde in the gas phase employs a catalyst comprising vanadyl hydrogenphosphate hemihydrate which may be unactivated or activated by steam.No byproducts were obtained in the process and the space-time yield is high. Deposits in the reactor do not occur.
摘要:
Process for removing methanol from formaldehyde-containing solutions. The present invention relates to a process for removing methanol from formaldehyde-containing solutions, with methanol being converted into formaldehyde dimethyl acetal by reactive distillation in the presence of an acidic fixed-bed catalyst, and the resultant mixture comprising methanol, formaldehyde dimethyl acetal and possibly other impurities being distilled off.
