Abstract: A method of preparing a high molecular weight polycarbonate resin is provided. In the method, a condensation polymerization process is used so that a mole fraction of arylcarbonate existing in a terminated group of a reaction side product having a degree of polymerization of less than 3 obtained as a result of transesterification and in a non-reacted diarylcarbonate is reduced. As a result, a high molecular weight polycarbonate can be obtained by solid state polymerization. A polycarbonate with an identical molecular weight can be produced in a substantially short time, compared with a polycarbonate produced through solid state polymerization without condensation polymerization. In addition, the non-use of a poisonous phosgene contributes to stability. Furthermore, quality polycarbonate may be guaranteed.

Abstract: The present invention provides a process of producing unsaturated aldehydes and unsaturated acids from olefins by fixed-bed catalytic partial oxidation in a shell-and-tube heat exchanger-type reactor. In this process, the reactor comprises a first-step reaction zone of mainly producing the unsaturated aldehydes, a second-step reaction zone of mainly producing the unsaturated acids, or both the two zones. The first-step reaction zone is divided into two or more zones by a partition. Each of the divided shell spaces is filled with a heat transfer medium, and the heat transfer medium in each shell space is maintained at isothermal temperature or a temperature difference of 0-5 ° C. The temperatures of the heat transfer media in each of the divided shell spaces are set to increase in the moving direction of reactants. In order to facilitate the removal of heat generation at a location where the partition is placed, a reaction inhibition layer is disposed in the first-step reaction zone.
