Abstract:
A modified inorganic substrate having a plurality of grafts of a polyalkyl acrylate or methacrylate of mean alkyl pendant chain length of 6 to about 40 carbons extending therefrom. The modified inorganic substrate is preferably a modified silica substrate and more preferably modified silica nanoparticles. There is also a process for graft polymerizing a silica substrate.

Abstract:
The invention relates to a polymer derived from: reaction of glycidyl (meth)acrylate, allyl glycidyl ether or [(vinyloxy)methyl]oxirane with ammonia or primary amine to obtain a mixture of monomer compounds; reaction of the mixture of monomer compounds with at least one of acrylic acid, vinyl alcohol, vinyl acetate, acrylamide, methylacrylic acid, and methylacrylamide to obtain an intermediate polymer; and reaction of the intermediate polymer with a dithiocarbamic acid salt. Methods for using the polymer are also described herein.
Abstract:
Provided are a scavenger composition and a method for removing amines from a hydrocarbon stream. The scavenger composition includes an amine-based H 2 S scavenger compound and at least one oxymethylene compound capable of scavenging amines. The method includes (a) providing a scavenger composition to a hydrocarbon, water or multiphase stream, the hydrocarbon, water or multiphase stream containing sulfide-containing compounds therein, wherein the scavenger composition comprises an amine-based H 2 S scavenger composition or amine-aldehyde reaction products and at least one oxymethylene compound, and (b) contacting the sulfide-containing compounds with the amine-based H 2 S scavenger composition, wherein the amine-based H 2 S scavenger composition (i) scavenges the sulfide-containing compounds, and (ii) produces primary and/or secondary amines, the amines reacting with the at least one oxymethylene species in situ, to reduce the amount of primary and/or secondary amines present in the hydrocarbon stream.
