Abstract:
This invention concerns a fuel additive comprising an etheramine alkoxylate, and fuel compositions and additive concentrates made therefrom. The etheramine alkoxylate may be of formula: ##STR1## where R.sup.1 is a straight or branched alkyl, or alkylaryl; R.sup.2 is independently in each occurrence hydrogen or alkyl from 1 to 6 carbons; R.sup.3 is independently in each occurrence hydrogen or alkyl of from 1 to 6 carbons; m averages from about 2 to about 20; and x and y each independently average from about 0 to 2, where x+y averages from about 1 to about 4.
Abstract:
Solutions of potassium, aliphatic monocarboxylate, hydrocarbyl dicarboxylate and hydrocarbyl triazole, with one or more silicate, phosphate, borate, or nitrate, have superior compatibility and anticorrosion properties, useful in heat transfer fluids, antifreezes and metal corrosion inhibition.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an improvement in a process for production of cyclohexane by liquid phase hydrogenation of benzene wherein no diluent is necessary, which comprises contacting benzene and hydrogen in the presence of a mixed catalyst bed comprising a first catalyst which is a less active hydrogenation catalyst selected from elements of Group VIII of the Periodic Table and a second, more active catalyst, comprising a Group VIII metal supported on an oxide, such as, for example, alumina, silica or titania at a temperature of about 40.degree. C. to about 300.degree. C. and pressure sufficient to keep the benzene liquid at the chosen reaction temperature.
Abstract:
A corrosion-inhibited antifreeze composition is disclosed. Specifically, the antifreeze composition comprises a major portion of a liquid alcohol freezing point depressant and a minor portion of at least one hydroxyl-substituted aromatic carboxylic acid having the hydroxyl radical disposed proximate to the carboxylic radical. The above described acid is employed as a corrosion inhibitor. Other conventional corrosion inhibitors may be employed in conjunction with the acids.In another embodiment, the present invention relates to a process for inhibitig the corrosion of metals present in the cooling system of an internal combustion engine which comprises intimately contacting the metal surface to be inhibited against corrosion with the antifreeze composition described above. Most preferably, the target substrate is high lead solder.
Abstract:
Covers a process for preparing polyamines from the corresponding polynitriles via a pelleted cobalt-copper-chromium hydrogenation catalyst which comprises contacting a polynitrile with hydrogen in presence of said catalyst and a stabilizing agent comprising a polyamine or a hydroxyl-amine whereby catalyst pellet disintegration is inhibited by the presence of said stabilizing agent.
Abstract:
Novel acylhydroximyl halides are provided and prepared by contacting a nitroalkanone with a halogen acid in the presence of an organic acid or alcohol.
Abstract:
Alkylamides are prepared by heating an acylhydroximyl halide in an oxygenated polar organic solvent at a temperature of about 70.degree. to 190.degree. C. The alkylamides herein prepared are useful as fuel and lubricant additives and as intermediates in the preparation of acids, nitriles and amines.
Abstract:
A process in which a polyamine initiator is oxyalkylated to form the corresponding polyamine polyoxyalkylene glycol which is then catalytically aminated to provide a polyoxyalkylenepolyamine is disclosed. These compounds are useful as curing agents for epoxy resins and for reaction with isocyanates to manufacture articles, such as automotive body panels, by reaction injection molding.
