Abstract: The invention relates to a multi-stage process for the continuous, phosgene-free preparation of (cyclo)aliphatic diisocyanates that comprises the conversion of (cyclo)aliphatic diamines into the corresponding (cyclo)alkylene biscarbamates and the thermal cleaving of the latter into the (cyclo)alkylene diisocyanates and alcohol. The urea used in accordance with the invention and also the urea employed for the preparation of urea equivalents (e.g. alkyl carbonates, alkyl carbamates) as a possible precursor for the synthesis of the (cyclo)aliphatic biscarbamates is unconditioned.

Abstract: The invention relates to aliphatic, cycloaliphatic or (cyclo)aliphatic diisocyanates, in addition to a method for their production.

Abstract: Cycloaliphatic diisocyanates can be prepared continuously and phosgene-free by reacting at least one cycloaliphatic diamine with at least one carbonic acid derivative and at least one alcohol to give a cycloaliphatic diurethane; freeing the cycloaliphatic diurethane of a low boiler, a medium boiler and mixtures thereof; thermally cleaving the cycloaliphatic diurethane in a cleavage apparatus to give a cycloaliphatic diisocyanate and a cleavage residue; continuously discharging a portion of the cleavage residue from the cleavage apparatus; removing the high boiler components from the discharge to obtain a purified discharge; reurethanizing the purified discharge with alcohol to obtain a reurethanized discharge; and recycling the reurethanized discharge into the process.

Abstract: A continuous multistage process for the preparation of (cyclo)aliphatic diisocyanates comprising a) condensing urea with a (cyclo)aliphatic diamine in the presence of an alcohol solvent to make a (cyclo)alkylenebisurea in a distillation reactor; b) reacting the crude (cyclo)alkylenebisurea with alcohol in a pressurized distillation reactor to make (cyclo)biscarbamate; c) removing the ammonia formed in the pressurized distillation reactor; d) cleaving the (cyclo)biscarbamate in the presence of a catalyst in a combined cleavage and rectifying column to make crude (cyclo)alkylene diisocyanate; e) reacting a diverted portion of the cleavage products with the alcohol to form a recycling mixture; f) and distilling the crude (cyclo)alkylene diisocyanate formed in step d.

Abstract: A circulation process for the production of (cyclo)aliphatic diisocyanates, in which the biscarbamate is produced from diamines, by-products from the thermal cracking, urea, and alcohol in the presence of N-unsubstituted carbamates and dialkyl carbonates, and with separation of NH.sub.3 ; the subsequent cracking of the biscarbamate is carried out in the liquid phase without solvent; the diisocyanate and alcohol are condensed; the diisocyanate is subjected to a purifying distillation; and a portion of the cracking reaction mixture is discharged with the by-products formed and recycled to the biscarbamate production step after prior reaction with the crude alcohol formed, effectively utilizes the by-products formed in the cracking step and is an industrially practical and economical process.
