Abstract: Method for obtaining components of a packet of additives for engine fuels by oxyalkylenation of organic compounds containing hydroxyl groups by means of alkylene oxide at the presence of basic catalysts, at the temperature 80-170° C., characteristic in that the mixture containing 94.5-99.9% by mass of alkyl phenols of the general formula according to FIG. 1, where R1-alkyl group of the carbon atoms number from 6 to 16 and not more than 0.1% by mass of water (H2O) and not more than 5.0% by mass (preferably from 0.1 to 1.0 by mass) of monohydroxyl alcohols of the general formula R2—OH, where R2-alkyl group of the carbon atoms number from 1 to 4, is oxyalkylenated with ethylene oxide or propylene oxide up to the moment of obtaining the molecular mass of oxyalkylenated alcohol not lower than 100 daltons and the hydroxyl number not higher than 150 mg of KOH/g, and next the product of synthesis is contacted at the temperature not higher than 150° C.

Abstract: In the process of bisphenol-A systhesis a method for controlling the water content of the resultant cation-exchanger bed wherein an acid ion-exchanger resin in the form of a sulphonated styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer is washed with phenol and the resulted washing is contacted with a basic ion-exchanger resin. Water is removed from the washing by distillation, and the dewatered phenol is recycled to wash the cation-exchanger bed. The catalyst bed is then washed with a mixture of phenol acetone and water, and this washing is contacted with the basic ion-exchange resin and recycled to wash the cation exchanger bed so as to obtain the desired moisture content.

Abstract: An ion-exchanger catalyst in the form of an acid ion-exchanger resin used for the synthesis process of alkylated phenols and having substitutes containing 6-12 carbon atoms in a chain is treated with phenol alkylation having olefins in the presence of acid catalysts such as acid ion-exchange resins.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for obtaining a high purity bisphenol from a post-reaction mixture resulting from the step of synthesis of phenol and acetone in the presence of a strong acid cation exhanger catalyst, by the way of crystallation and separation by distillation followed by recovery of bisphenol-A from the step of thermal catalytic decomposition of by product of the principal process technology in a multistage process.

Abstract: A process for the production of bisphenol A from phenol and acetone, comprises introducing a substantially anhydrous reaction mixture of phenol, acetone, and recycled solution of bisphenol A and reaction by-products in phenol into a reaction zone containing a cation-exchange resin catalyst, such catalyst being a mixture of resin having a macroporous structure and resin having a microporous structure in a ratio of 0.05:1 to 0.5:1 by weight, the mol ratio of phenol to acetone being 5:1 to 30:1, and the concentration of bisphenol A being 12 to 20% by weight. The temperature of the reaction zone is maintained between 60 degrees and 95 degrees C. The resulting reacted reaction mixture is withdrawn from the reaction zone, the concentration of bisphenol A being 21 to 35% by weight and the amount of reaction by-products being 12 to 24% by weight. Such withdrawn reaction mixture is treated to recover bisphenol A product and to provide the recycled solution of bisphenol A and reaction by-products in phenol.
