  • Patent number: 9926256
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a mixed phosphate catalyst for converting lactic acid to acrylic acid, which is characterized by a high conversion of lactic acid, a high selectivity for acrylic acid, a high yield of acrylic acid, and correspondingly low selectivity and molar yields for undesired by-products. This is achieved with a particular class of catalysts defined by a mixture of metal-containing phosphate salts. Further, the catalyst is believed to be stable and active for lengthy periods heretofore unseen in the art for such dehydration processes.

  • Patent number: 8952156
    Abstract: A process is disclosed for separating the output from the reaction of EDDN or EDMN with hydrogen in the presence of THF, a catalyst, TETA or DETA, water, and optionally organic compounds having higher and lower boiling points than TETA or DETA. Hydrogen is removed, and the output is supplied to a distillation column DK1 in which an azeotrope, optionally comprising organic compounds with a boiling point lower than TETA or DETA, is removed from the top. A product comprising TETA or DETA is removed from the bottom and passed into a distillation column DK2, removing THF. A stream comprising TETA or DETA passes from the bottom of DK2. The DK1 azeotrope is condensed. Phase separation is induced by the addition of an organic solvent essentially immiscible with water, and the mixture is separated. The organic phase is recycled into DK1 and the water phase is discharged.

  • Patent number: 5288909
    Abstract: A process of reforming an alkyleneamine feedstock or a mixture of such feedstocks to an alkyleneamine or a mixture of alkyleneamines which is different from the feedstock or feedstock mixture. The process is catalyzed by one of the following: Group VB metal oxides, Group VB metal phosphates, Group IIA metal silicates, and tungsten oxides. For example, ethylenediamine is contacted with a catalyst of niobic acid or magnesium silicate to yield predominantly diethylenetriamine and non-cyclic triethylenetetramines; whereas high molecular weight polyethylenepolyamines are cracked by the same catalysts to mixtures of lower molecular weight linear and cyclic materials.

  • Patent number: 5210307
    Abstract: A process for reforming alkyleneamines to predominantly linearly-extended polyalkylenepolyamines comprising contacting an alkyleneamine or mixture thereof with a catalyst under conditions such that a mixture of polyalkylenepolyamines enriched in linearly-extended products is formed, said catalyst containing at least one compound selected from the group consisting of (a) Group VB metal oxides, (b) Group VB metal phosphates, (c) silicates of Groups IIA, IIIB, IVB, VB, and the lanthanide and actinide metals, and (d) tungsten oxides, with the proviso that the silicates and tungsten oxides are essentially free of aluminum. For example, ethylenediamine is contacted with a catalyst of niobium phosphate or niobic acid under reaction conditions to yield predominantly non-cyclic polyethylenepolyamines.

  • Patent number: 5041548
    Abstract: Triethylene diamines are prepared in a high yield with an amine compound having a specific group as the starting material by bringing the same into contact with a catalyst formed of a crystalline metal silicate of which the molar ratio (SiO.sub.2 /M.sub.2 O.sub.3) of silicon dioxide (SiO.sub.2) to the oxide of a tervalent metal (M.sub.2 O.sub.3, M being the tervalent metal) is at least 12. Particularly high efficiency can be obtained by using a crystalline metal silicate crystallized in the presence of an organic crystallizing agent.
