Abstract:
Bipolar electrodes having two chambers for inflow and outflow of the reaction mixture to be electrolyzed. The chambers are separated from each other by a distance which is considerably larger than their width and the inlets and outlets are on the same side of the electrode. Electrodes of this kind are suitable, for example, for the Kolbe synthesis of dicarboxylic esters from dicarboxylic half-esters. Such esters are useful as plasticizers.
Abstract:
CONTINUOUS PRODUCTION OF NEUTRAL ESTERS OF ADIPIC ACID AND AN ALCOHOL IN WHICH SOLID ADIPIC ACID IN MIXED WITH ALCOHOL IN THE MOLAR RATIO 1:2 IN A MIXING ZONE AT FROM 120* TO 180* AND THE MIXTURE IS ESTERIFIED WHILE BOILING ALCOHOL IN THE LIQUID AT FROM 180* TO 250*.
Abstract:
MANUFACTURE OF NAPHTHALENE-1,8-DIOIC ANHYDRIDE BY OXIDIZING ACENAPTHENE WITH AIR IN THE PRESENCE OF SPHERICAL SUPPORT CATALYSTS OF WHICH THE ACTIVE COMPOSITION CONTAINS FROM 1 TO 15% BY WEIGHT OF VANADIUM PENTOXIDE AND AT LEAST 85% BY WEIGHT OF ANATASE.
Abstract:
A PROCESS FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF SEBACIC ACID DIESTERS OF HIGHER ALCOHOLS BY ELECTROCHEMICAL CONDENSATION OF THE CORRESPONDING ADIPIC ACID MONOESTERS IN METHANOLIC SOLUTION, WHEREIN THE FLOW OF CURRENT THROUGH THE ELECTROLYTIC CELL IS INTERMITTENTLY STOPPED AND THE ELECTRODES ARE SHORTCIRCUITED.
Abstract:
Continuous manufacture of dichloroisocyanuric acid by reacting cyanuric acid with chlorine aqueous alkaline solution at a specific ratio of the reactor dimensions, under specific conditions of temperature and flow rate of the reaction mixture and at a specific molar ratio of the starting materials. The compound produced by the process of the invention is a valuable intermediate in the manufacture of bleaches, oxidizing agents, detergents and disinfectants.
