摘要:
A shell-and-tube apparatus, more specifically, a shell-and-tube reactor, which includes a vessel, at least one intermediate tube plate sectioning the interior of the vessel into at least two compartments having different temperatures, a number of heat transferring tubes penetrating the intermediate tube plate or plates, and a fluid passing through the tubes which is heated or cooled by a heat transfer medium surrounding the tubes. At least one insulation plate or plates are provided on one or both sides of the intermediate tube plate so that the space between the intermediate tube plate or plates and, if two or more insulation plates are used, the space or spaces between the insulation plates may be utilized as a stagnation zone for the heat transfer medium, so as to make the temperature gradient through the intermediate tube plate or plates gentle and relax the thermal stress occurring in the body wall. The reactor is particularly useful for production of (meth)acrolain and/or (meth)acrylic acid by catalytic gas-phase oxidation of propylene or butenes.

There is provided a process for producing a highly water absorptive polymer, which comprises making up a mixture (A) comprising an aqueous solution of (a) a partially neutralized product of acrylic acid with 20% or more of carboxylic groups being neutralized to an alkali metal salt or ammonium salt, (b) a crosslinking agent having two or more copolymerizable vinyl groups in one molecule, (c) a basic vinyl monomer in a quantity of 20 mol % or less based on said partially neutralized product of acrylic acid, (d) a nonionic surfactant with HLB of 7 or more and (e) an oxidative radical polymerization initiator, said mixture (A) being maintained at a temperature of 50.degree. C. or lower, and a mixture (B) comprising an amine or a reducing agent dissolved in water or in said mixture (A) from which at least the component (e) is removed, and mixing both the mixtures to cause polymerization.
摘要:
Aqueous solution of alkali or ammonium acrylate is applied to a prefabricated fibrous substrate, and the acrylate is subjected to polymerization in two steps, namely the first step in which the acrylate is polymerized by means of a radical polymerization initiator and the second step which is subsequent to the first step and in which the unpolymerized acrylate is polymerized by means of irradiation with electromagnetic radiation or corpuscular ionizing radiation.
摘要:
In a method of reducing corrosion of a material constituting a nuclear reactor structure, an electrochemical corrosion potential is controlled by injecting a solution or a suspension containing a substance generating an excitation current by an action of at least one of radiation, light, and heat existing in a nuclear reactor, or a metal or a metallic compound forming the substance generating the excitation current under the condition in the nuclear reactor to allow the substance generating the excitation current to adhere to the surface of the nuclear reactor structural material, and by injecting hydrogen in cooling water of the nuclear reactor while controlling the hydrogen concentration in a feed water.

A process for producing a highly water adsorptive polymer, which comprises subjecting an aqueous solution of partially neutralized sodium acrylate wherein 20 to 50% or less of the carboxyl group has been neutralized to its sodium salt, the concentration of the partially neutralized sodium acrylate in the aqueous solution being 45 to 80% by weight, to solution polymerization in the presence of a crosslinking agent and optionally not exceeding 20 mol % based on the partially neutralized sodium acrylate of at least one basic vinyl monomer selected from the group consisting of (meth)acrylamide, N,N-dimethyl(meth)acrylamide, dimethylaminoethyl(meth)acrylamide, 2-vinylpyridine, and 4-vinylpyridine with the use of a water soluble radical polymerization initiator.
摘要:
Propylene in admixture with molecular oxygen and steam is subjected to a two-step, vapor-phase, catalytic oxidation to convert into acrolein and then into acrylic acid. At least the first-step reaction is conducted in tubes of an apparatus of a shell-and-tube heat-exchanger type structure, and the reaction product of the first-step reaction is quenched before it is subjected to the second-step reaction. Reaction conditions in both the steps are specified.
