摘要:
Alkali metal salts of orthophosphoric acid are obtained by continuously reacting the required amounts of concentrated phosphoric acid with 40 percent to 65 percent of phosphorus pentoxide, with a 40 percent to 70 percent alkali metal hydroxide solution in a flash reactor, continuously passing the resulting reaction product through a single-effect or a multiple-effect evaporator which may be under vacuum to concentrate the same, thereby utilizing the steam set free in the reactor and, if multiple-effect evaporators are used, the steam generated in each preceding evaporator to heat the following evaporator, and separating the crystals from the mother liquor which may be recirculated into the reactor and/or the evaporators. Proceeding in this manner permits one to produce crystalline alkali metal orthophosphates in substantially dry form without additional supply of heat energy. The apparatus assembly for carrying out this improved process consists of a flash reactor with stirring device, a single-effect evaporator or a multiple-effect evaporator connected in series with the reactor, a device for separating crystals from liquid such as a centrifuge, and a vacuum device. Pipes connecting the evaporators with, and conducting the condensed steam therefrom to, heat exchangers for preheating the reaction components may be provided, likewise pipes connecting the liquid discharge of the separating device with the reactor and/or the evaporators. Examples of alkali metal orthophosphates obtained by the process and apparatus of this invention are monosodium and monopotassium orthophosphates, disodium orthophosphates with and without water of crystallization, trisodium orthophosphate.
摘要:
N-(1,1-Di-phosphono ethyl) acetamidine has proved to be an excellent agent for preventing scale and deposit formation in aqueous systems, even when added in substoichiometric amounts. It is produced by reacting urea or acetylurea with acetylchloride and phosphorous acid or a mixture of phosphorus trichloride and water in an amount sufficient to produce phosphorous acid. The acetylchloride may be formed during the reaction from phosphorous trichloride and glacial acetic acid or acetic acid anhydride.

The novel and advantageous process of treating laundry comprises predrying the washed and rinsed laundry to a predetermined degree of dryness such as to a moisture content between 5 and 70 percent and preferably to a moisture content of about 15 percent, subjecting the predried laundry, preferably in a laundry drier, to the action of laundry treating agents, such as brighteners, antistatic, softening, aromatizing, and the like agents, preferably by spraying said agents thereon, and completing drying of the laundry. Thereby, any moldy smell of the laundry and/or its becoming electrostatically charged are eliminated and/or the properties of the finished laundry are considerably improved. Drying is preferably effected in laundry dryers of the tumbler type and the treating composition is preferably sprayed on the laundry in aerosol form.
