摘要:
Tetrabromobisphenol-A is produced in a bromination process where no bromine or only a very small proportion of bromine is fed to the reactor. In the process aqueous hydrobromic acid, is the sole source or a major source of the bromine. In the process there are at least three concurrent continuous feeds to the reactor. One is composed of bisphenol-A and/or underbrominated bisphenol-A and a water-miscible organic solvent. The second is gaseous hydrogen bromide or preferably, aqueous hydrobromic acid, and the third is aqueous hydrogen peroxide. Optionally a small additional continuous feed of bromine can be employed. The feeds are proportioned to maintain a liquid phase containing (i) from above about 15 to about 85 wt % water, based upon the amount of water and water-miscible organic solvent in such liquid phase, and (ii) an amount of unreacted bromine that is in excess over the stoichiometric amount theoretically required to convert the bisphenol-A and/or underbrominated bisphenol-A to tetrabromobisphenol-A. The tetrabromobisphenol-A continuously forms as a solids phase in a yield of at least about 90% based on bisphenol-A and/or underbrominated bisphenol-A fed. The reaction mass is agitated and/or refluxed to maintain a substantially uniform slurry in the reactor. An amount of the slurry is continuously removed so that the volume of the contents of the reactor remains substantially constant.
摘要:
Bisphenol-A or preferably, a mixture of bisphenol-A and underbrominated bisphenol-A, is brominated in a liquid phase reaction medium in which tetrabromobisphenol-A is relatively insoluble, using a stoichiometric deficiency of bromine to thereby form in the reaction mass a precipitate (i.e., a solids phase) composed of 50-95 wt % of tetrabromobisphenol-A and 50-5 wt % of underbrominated bisphenol-A. The precipitate is separated from the reaction mass, preferably during the bromination, and tetrabromobisphenol-A is recovered from the precipitate. Preferably underbrominated bisphenol-A is recycled as feed to the bromination. The process technology of this invention has the capability of producing high quality tetrabromobisphenol-A (high purity, good color, low ionic halide content) with efficient raw material utilization, minimized waste product formation, and minimized waste disposal costs.

摘要:
This invention relates, inter alia, to a process for the production of tetrabromobisphenol-A by the bromination of bisphenol-A and/or underbrominated bisphenol-A, which process features: a water and water-miscible organic solvent reaction medium; a relatively high reaction temperature; and the presence, in the reaction medium, of both (i) excess unreacted Br2 during the feed of bisphenol-A to the reactor, and (ii) sufficient HBr to protect the tetrabromobisphenol-A produced against undesirable color formation. Tetrabromobisphenol-A precipitates from the reaction mass and is easily recovered. Product of high purity (97% or more) and very low color (APHA of 50 or less) can be produced, even when using large excesses of bromine in the reaction.

摘要:
In a color imaging system, multiple rendering devices are provided at different nodes along a network. Each rendering device has a color measurement instrument for calibrating the color presented by the rendering device. A rendering device may be a printer in which the measuring of color samples on a sheet rendered by the printer is provided by a sensor coupled to a transport mechanism which moves the sensor and sheet relative to each other, where the sensor provides light from the samples to a spectrograph. A rendering device may also be a display having a member supporting a color measuring instrument for receiving light from an area of the screen. The color measuring instruments provide for non-contact measurements of color samples rendered on a display or a sheet, and are self-calibrating by the use of calibration references.

Methods involve user interactions with screens on the display to set color display parameters. An apparatus is also provided for calibrating a sensor which may be used for measuring color of a display in one or more of these methods.

A system and method for calibrating color printers, and related particularly to, a system and method for calibrating color printers over a network utilizing a profile server (representing a networkable computer server system) which provides color transformations in accordance with printer configurations having at least information read from consumable ink or toner cartridges for such printers. Such color transformations enable different color printers, or even the same color printer with different printer configurations, to render color consistently.
