    摘要: The present invention relates to transportable product for the transportation of paraffinic wax and methods of transporting using this transportable product. The transportable product comprises 90 to 20 weight % of a liquid comprising ≧50 weight % water and having a pH of >5 and a true vapor pressure of ≦14.7 psia when measured at 20° C., and 10 to 80 weight % of wax particles, wherein the wax particles comprise ≧75 weight % of wax particles larger than 0.1 mm. The transportable product and methods of transporting according to the present invention are able to accommodate a relatively high weight % of paraffinic wax particles in the transportable product while avoiding interparticle adhesion and clumping by ensuring that the wax particles are not too small and the amount of small wax particles is not excessive.

    摘要: A process for preparing branched alkyl aromatic hydrocarbons, which process comprises contacting branched olefins with an aromatic hydrocarbon under alkylating conditions, which branched olefins have been obtained by a process which comprises dehydrogenating an isoparaffinic composition over a suitable catalyst which isoparaffinic composition has been obtained by hydrocracking and hydroisomerization of a paraffinic wax and which isoparaffinic composition comprises paraffins having a carbon number in the range of from 7 to 35, of which paraffins at least a portion of the molecules is branched, the average number of branches per paraffin molecule being at least 0.5 and the branching comprising methyl and optionally ethyl branches; a process for preparing (branched-alkyl)arylsulfonates, comprising sulfonating branched alkyl aromatic hydrocarbons which branched alkyl aromatic hydrocarbons have been prepared by the said process for preparing branched alkyl aromatic hydrocarbons; and branched alkyl aromatic hydrocarbon compositions and (branched-alkyl)arylsulfonate compositions which are obtainable by the processes so defined.
