Abstract:
This invention comprises novel chromium tris-diorganoorthophosphates, including coordination polymers thereof, and their preparation by the reaction of certain simple salts or esters of trivalent chromium with alkali or alkaline earth metal salts of diorgano orthophosphoric acid and separation of the novel compounds. The simple salts or esters include primarily the halides, nitrates, sulfates and acetates of trivalent chromium. The alkali metal salts or alkaline earth metal salts of diorgano orthophosphoric acids include primarily compounds of the general formula M'' (OP(O)(OR)2)n in which M'' is an alkali metal or an alkaline earth metal, each n is the valence of such metal and each R can be an alkyl, alkoxyalkyl or cycloalkyl group of one to about eight carbon atoms and the chlorinated and brominated derivatives thereof. This invention also comprises the use of these novel compounds in conjunction with alkyl aluminum halides as catalysts for alkylation of benzene and other aromatic compounds and the polymerization of ethylene, propylene and other olefins.
Abstract:
ALKYL AND 2-ALKOXY-ETHYL ORTHOSILICATES ARE PREPARED BY REACTING A SIMPLE ALCOHOL OR A 2-ALKOXY-ETHYL ALCOHOL WITH SILICON IN CONTACT WITH A CATALYTIC AMOUNT OF AN ALKALI METAL DERIVATIVE OF A 2-ALKOXY-ETHYL ALCOHOL AT ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE AND AT TEMPERATURE OF ABOUT 120* TO 250*C., PREFERABLY 150* TO 220*C. THE PREPARATION IS PERFORMED PREFERABLY IN THE PRESENCE OF A SOLVENT.
Abstract:
A LIQUID COMPOSITION USEFUL FOR CURING EPOXY RESINS, URETHANE FOAMS AND URETHANE ELASTOMERS IS PREPARED BY CONDENSING ANILINE, 2-CHLOROANILINE, 2,5-DICHLOROANILINE AND FORMALDEHYDE IN CERTAIN RATIOS IN THE PRESENCE OF AN ACID.
Abstract:
This invention comprises the novel composition formed by mixing (A) a chromium tris-diorgano-orthophosphate of the general formula Cr(OP (O) (OR)2)3 wherein R can be an alkyl, alkoxyalkyl or cycloalkyl group of one to about eight carbon atoms and the chlorinated and brominated derivatives thereof, (B) an alkyl aluminum compound of the general formula R''2R''''Al in which each R'' and R'''' can be an alkyl group of 1 to 6 carbon atoms and each R'''' can also be a hydrogen atom, and (C) a halogenated olefin of four to about eight carbon atoms containing at least four halogen atoms at least two of which are attached to doubly bonded carbon atoms. This invention also comprises the use of this novel combination as a catalyst for the polymerization of ethylene alone or with propylene and other olefins. This invention also comprises the polymer products prepared by said method.
