Patent number: 8586696Abstract: The invention comprises a catalyst compound of formula Zr(L)(A1)(A2)(A3) where L represents a ketoamide ligand, A1, A2 & A3 may be the same or different and each represent a ligand derived from a compound selected from the group consisting of:—an alcohol, a polyol, an alkyl acetoacetate, a diketone, a ketoamide, a carboxylic acid or ester thereof, an alkanolamine, a phosphoric acid ester and a sulphonic acid or ester thereof. The compound may be made by the reaction of a zirconium alkoxide or haloalkoxide with a ketoamide. The compound is useful as a catalyst for the reaction of a polyisocyanate with a hydroxyl-containing compound, e.g. for the manufacture of polyurethanes or composite cellulosic materials such as fibre-boards.Type: GrantFiled: July 4, 2006Date of Patent: November 19, 2013Assignee: Dorf Ketal Chemicals (India) PVT. LtdInventors: Arran Alexander Dickon Tulloch, Swagata Nanda, Bruno Frederic Stengel

Patent number: 7906012Abstract: The present invention includes methods for improving the operational parameters in primary fractionators which are experiencing diminished operation efficiencies due to deposits of polymerized hydrocarbon species. The invention comprises the step of adding a foam reducing amount of a foam reducing composition at the primary fractionator. A reduction in foaming is achieved whereby the operational efficiency of the process is improved based upon operation parameters including, but not limited to, liquid-gas contact ratio, product top temperature, pressure differentials, gasoline end point or combinations thereof.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 2002Date of Patent: March 15, 2011Assignee: Dorf Ketal Chemicals India Pvt. Ltd.Inventors: Perumangode Neelakantan Ramaswamy, Mahesh Subramaniyam
