  • Patent number: 8097751
    Abstract: A two-stage process for the preparation of organic isocyanates by reacting primary amines with phosgene in which: a) in a first stage, amine and phosgene are reacted in an adiabatically managed reaction, in which the temperature of reaction is restricted to values between 100 and 220° C. by actively adjusting the absolute pressure in the reactor to values between 8 and 50 bar by decompression, and the temperature is held at values between 100 and 220° C. until the stoichiometric conversion of phosgene has reached at least 80%; and then b) in a second stage, the reaction mixture from a) is decompressed to an absolute pressure of 1 to 15 bar and the reaction mixture is reacted further at temperatures between 90 and 240° C., optionally with the introduction of heat.

  • Patent number: 7517829
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the production of Raney nickel catalysts. In this process, the melt of an alloy comprising from 40 to 95 wt. % aluminum, from 5 to 50 wt. % nickel, 0 to 20 wt. % iron, from 0 to 15 wt. % of one or more transition metals selected from the group consisting of cerium, cerium mixed metal, vanadium, niobium, tantalum, chromium, molybdenum and manganese, and, optionally, additional glass-forming elements, is brought into contact with one or more rotating cooling rollers or cooling plates and is allowed to cool and solidify thereon. The cooling rollers have a surface structured by means of transverse grooves, and the cooling plates have a surface structured by means of grooves extending outwards from the axis of rotation. The rapidly solidified alloy on the cooling rollers or the cooling plates is then subjected to treatment with one or more organic or inorganic bases.

  • Patent number: 6706902
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the continuous production of nano-scale precious metal particles on SiH-containing support materials, the compositions themselves, and the use of these precious metal-containing compositions as catalyst. The continuous process according to the invention includes impregnating support materials and, after thermal activation, drying the support materials by spraying or by fluidized bed technology leads to form precious metal-containing support compositions that are active in the catalysis of oxidation reactions. The catalytically active precious metal-containing support compositions exhibit high selectivities and productivities and have very long catalyst service lives without deactivation. The invention also relates to a process for the oxidation of hydrocarbons in the presence of oxygen, a reducing agent and the precious-metal containing support compositions of the present invention.
