Abstract:
Use is made, for selectively hydrogenating the olefinic double bonds of block copolymers, at least one block of which comprises olefinic double bonds, using a catalyst based on a metal from Group VIII in a medium comprising an organic solvent for the copolymer and an ionic liquid as solvent for the catalyst, of a water-immiscible ionic liquid, preferably an ionic liquid for which the anion is the hexafluorophosphate anion and the cation is the 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium (bmim+) or 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium (emim+) cation.Applied to poly(styrene)-b-poly(butadiene)-b-poly(methyl methacrylate) block copolymers, the poly(butadiene) block of which predominantly possesses a 1,4-microstructure, this process results in copolymers for which the degree of hydrogenation is at least equal to 50% and which exhibit a melting point of greater than 30 °C.
Abstract:
The invention concerns a method for making an aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxide. More particularly, it concerns a method for making hydrogen peroxide directly from hydrogen and oxygen, finely dispersed in an aqueous acid medium comprising a catalyst and at least a surfactant. The invention also concerns a device for implementing said method.
Abstract:
The invention concerns a supported metal catalyst based on at least one metal selected in the group M consisting of palladium, platinum, ruthenium, rhodium, iridium, holmium, osmium and gold, used for directly making hydrogen peroxide from hydrogen and oxygen. The invention also concerns a method for making said catalyst comprising successively an impregnating step with a solution based on one or several salt(s) of at least one metal of group M on a support, and a reduction step characterised in that at the end of the reduction step, the catalyst is treated with an aqueous acid solution comprising bromine and bromide ions. The catalyst is characterised by metal or crystallised metal aggregates with size ranging between 0.1 and 20 microns and preferably between 0.1 and 10 microns. The supported bimetal catalyst is preferred, for example Pd—Pt, Au—Pt, Pd—Ho and Pd—Au.
