摘要:
Disclosed is a method and solvent composition capable of removing iron oxide deposits from the surface of titanium components without substantially damaging the underlying titanium component. Iron oxide deposits may be removed from the surface of a titanium component by contacting the titanium component with the solvent composition of the invention. The solvent composition may then be removed from contact with the titanium component to obtain a recyclable solvent composition which is recycled into repeated contact with the titanium component. The solvent composition comprises an aqueous mixture of an organic acid and a hydrohalide acid.

Economical processes are disclosed for preparing relatively pure polycarboxylic acid from typical crude products of liquid phase oxidation, which do not involve intermediate steps of ester formation or require any alkanol containing solvent, for purification of "crude" polycarboxylic acid containing impurities which include one or more monofunctional aromatic compounds, trifunctional aromatic compounds, and/or color causing organic compounds formed by oxidation of a corresponding substituted aromatic compound in a liquid phase, e.g. 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid by liquid phase oxidation of 2,6-dimethyl naphthalene. The invention provides integrate processes which comprise reacting crude oxidation product with a polyalkyl amine amine, e.g. trialkylamine, forming an aqueous solution of the salts thus obtained, separating deleterious compounds from the solution, and recovering the polyalkyl amine and a relatively pure polycarboxylic acid product.
摘要:
A method for the acid catalyzed cyclization of an alkenylbenzene feedstock to a dimethyltetralin in a liquid phase reaction wherein the desired dimethyltetralin is removed from the reaction mixture by distillation simultaneously with the addition of the feedstock to the reaction mixture.
摘要:
A catalytic process is provided for the selective production of pseudocumene and durene by contacting a hydrocarbon feed containing benzene or a methyl substituted benzene under methylating conditions and in the presence of a methylating agent with a catalyst comprising AMS-1B crystalline borosilicate. In the resulting product pseudocumene and durene are obtained in selectivities higher than equilibrium concentrations of respectively trimethylbenzenes and tetramethylbenzenes.
摘要:
A process for ethanolysis of PET is disclosed wherein a feed comprising PET is reacted with ethanol and recovering ethylene glycol and an aromatic diethyl ester such as diethyl isophthalate and/or diethyl terephthalate. PET, or a terpolymer comprising terephthalate monomer and ethylene glycol monomers, is reacted with ethanol and ethanol, diethyl terephthalate, ethylene glycol and optionally diethyl isophthalate are recovered. Recovered diethyl components can be subjected to liquid-phase oxidation to produce aromatic carboxylic acid. Acetic acid may also produced via liquid-phase oxidation of recovered diethyl components. The aromatic carboxylic acid can be used to form polymer.
