Abstract: A process for recovering dimethyl terephthalate (DMT) comprises the steps of: providing a dimethyl terephthalate stream including dimethyl terephthalate, glycols, and coordination compounds; acidifying the coordination compounds to disassociate the ligands from the metalions; separating the ligands from the metalions; separating the dimethyl terephthalate from the glycols; and recovering the dimethyl terephthalate. Additionally, the process may include the step of basifying the metalions to precipitate the metal; and recovering the metal.
Abstract: Multiply, preferably doubly or triply, fluorinated nitrobenzenes are prepared in an advantageous way from the corresponding chloronitrobenzenes and an alkali metal fluoride in a chlorine-fluorine exchange reaction by catalyzing the reaction with a quaternary ammonium compound comprising at least one alkoxypolyoxyalkyl radical.
Abstract: A method is disclosed of preparing amidated water soluble cellulose acetates by amidating water soluble cellulose acetate. Methods are also provided for preparing aminated water soluble cellulose acetates of varying plasticities, film- and fiber-forming characteristics, and other properties by methanolysis of naturally-occurring chitin or by amination of water soluble cellulose acetate.
Abstract: In the method of measuring the pH value of a test solution with glass-electrode measuring cells and of simultaneously calibrating the measuring cells, the potentials occurring at the pH glass electrode and the reference electrode are processed in a pH meter with temperature compensation and measuring-cell slope derivation. The potentials from a reference electrode (4) and two pH glass electrodes (2, 3) having different internal reference solutions (6, 7) are processed in a first (8) and a second pH meter (9). The measuring-cell slope is derived from the processed potential and, together with the slope, the measured value is derived simultaneously.
Abstract: This invention relates to quaternary ammonium salts of certain 2H-1-benzopyran derivatives, to the intermediates and processes useful for their preparation, to their free-radical scavenger and cellular protective properties and to their end-use application as therapeutic agents.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the purifying working-up of liquid reaction media and/or wash media obtained during preparation of cellulose ethers, which are insoluble in hot water, from cellulose, an alkali metal hydroxide and at least one etherifying agent in a medium containing water and if appropriate at least one organic solvent, by ultrafiltration of the media into a permeate and concentrate, which comprises carrying out the ultrafiltration of the reaction media and/or wash media at a temperature at or above the flocculation temperature of the cellulose ethers.
Abstract: The present invention provides a process for preparing arylglyoxals which comprise the steps of (a) electrochemically oxidizing an arylketone at a pH of less than about seven and at a temperature of from about -20.degree. C. to about 120.degree. C. in the presence of an electrolyte for a sufficient period of time to form an arylacetal, and (b) subjecting said acetal to hydrolysis for a sufficient period of time and under suitable temperature and pressure conditions to form said arylglyoxal.

Abstract: Film edges 9, 9 of a film web 1 are sensed with sensor heads 4,4. The sensor heads 4, 4 can be motor-adjusted transversely to the longitudinal direction of the film web 1. By virtue of the displacement, signals are produced which are proportional to the displacement and which activates servo valves 8, 8. These servo valves are connected to positioning cylinders 10, 10 which are in turn connected to chain-path deflector heads 6, 6. The signals of the servo valves activate the adjustment cylinders, which then adjust the chain-path deflector heads and thus drive them in response to movement of the film edges. By virtue of the adjustment of the chain-path deflector heads, the paths of the clip chains 14, 14 are also adjusted, resulting in a variation of the grasping depths of the film strip held firmly by the clips. This brings about an oscillating movement of the film web after the feed-in into the transverse stretching frame 16.
