Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for hydrogenating 4,4′-methylenedianiline and/or polymeric MDA with hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst comprising ruthenium on a zirconium oxide support material, and also to the use of a catalyst comprising ruthenium on a zirconium oxide support material for hydrogenating 4,4′-methylenedianiline and/or polymeric MDA.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to 2,6-bis(aminomethyl)piperidine derivatives as such (in the following text abbreviated to “2,6-BAMP derivatives”) which are defined by the general formula (I) shown in the following text. In addition, the present invention relates to a process for preparing such 2,6-BAMP derivatives by hydrogenation of the corresponding 2,6-dicyanopiperidine derivatives (hereinafter abbreviated to “2,6-DCP derivatives”) in the presence of a catalyst. The present invention further provides for the use of the 2,6-BAMP derivatives of the invention as hardeners for epoxy resins, as intermediate in the preparation of diisocyanates, which play an important role in the production of polyurethanes, as starters in the preparation of polyetherols and/or as monomers for polyamide production. The present invention further relates to the diisocyanates as such prepared from the 2,6-BAMP derivatives and also the corresponding preparative process.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for hydrogenating aromatic compounds with hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst, in which the catalyst comprises ruthenium on a zirconium oxide support material, and also the use of a catalyst comprising ruthenium on a zirconium oxide support material for hydrogenating aromatic compounds.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the use of substantially linear polypropyleneimine as a hardener for epoxy resins, and also to a corresponding curable composition, to the curing thereof, and to the cured epoxy resin obtainable therefrom.
Abstract:
