摘要:
Formaldehyde manufacture by oxidative-dehydrogenation of methanol over a silver or copper catalyst. Aqueous formaldehyde solution is obtained from the reaction and is substantially stripped of methanol by a low energy process at relatively low temperature by means of recycled off-gas in a stripping column comprising at least about 1.5 theoretical transfer units for stripping methanol.
摘要:
A method of stabilizing concentrated aqueous formaldehyde solutions by the addition of a stabilizing amount of an interpolymer of vinyl acetate, vinyl acetal and vinyl alcohol to the formaldehyde solution. The interpolymer comprises from about 25 to about 65 parts by weight vinyl acetate units, from about 20 to about 72 parts by weight vinyl acetal units derived from acetaldehyde and from about 3 to about 15 parts by weight of vinyl alcohol units. The interpolymer is prepared by alcoholysis and acetalization of a low molecular weight polyvinyl acetate.
摘要:
Formaldehyde manufacture by oxidative-dehydrogenation of methanol over a silver or copper catalyst. Aqueous formaldehyde solution is obtained from the reaction and is stripped of a mixture of methanol, formaldehyde and water by a low energy process at relatively low temperature and low reflux in a still comprising at least about 1.5 theoretical plates, the stripping conditions being selected to allow substantial reduction of the methanol content of the aqueous formaldehyde solution and recycle of the methanol to the reactor.
摘要:
Aqueous formaldehyde solutions containing minor amounts of methanol are substantially stripped of methanol by a low energy process at relatively low temperature by means of recycled inert gas in a stripping column comprising at least about 1.5 theoretical transfer units for stripping methanol.
