  • Publication number: 20100137450
    Abstract: Aqueous formaldehyde solutions are prepared and the formaldehyde content of the aqueous formaldehyde solutions produced is determined by an online analytical method. The desired formaldehyde content can subsequently be established by addition of water so that an aqueous formaldehyde solution having a defined formaldehyde content (formalin) is obtained.

  • Patent number: 7112693
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for producing an aliphatic oligocarbonate diol comprising a) reacting an aliphatic diol with dimethyl carbonate at an elevated pressure in a reaction mixture, and b) subsequently removing unreacted methanol and dimethyl carbonate under a reduced pressure to uncap the terminal OH groups.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6833433
    Abstract: A process for the production of aliphatic oligocarbonate diols is disclosed. The optionally catalyzed high yield process entails the multistage transesterification of aliphatic diols with dimethyl carbonate. In the process DMC-methanol mixtures that have been distilled off are recycled to the reaction solution with further conversion and depletion of the contained DMC in the same or in a following reaction batch.
