Abstract: The subject invention is related to a continuous process of epoxidation of an olefin with supported heteropoly acid catalyst, which does not involve the use of an additive(s). The subject invention separates the products and oxides through a continuous process to reduce backmixing, thereby achieving an efficacy equal to that of a process involving the use of an additive. By excluding additives from the process, the subject invention has a lower cost, and avoids the need for additional wastewater treatment since no alkali metal or alkali earth metal compound is formed during the reaction. Moreover, the continuous process of the invention is also beneficial in industrial manufacturing.

Abstract: The subject invention is related to a process for the epoxidation of olefin with peroxide, comprising reacting peroxide with olefin in the presence a solvent, wherein the solvent has Hansen Solubility Parameters (HSPs) of ?T,solvent and ?H,solvent and the epoxide product has Hansen Solubility Parameters (HSPs) of ?T,product and ?H,product, and wherein: ?T,product?6??T,solvent??T,product+6, and ?H,product?6??H,solvent.

Abstract: The present invention provides a phosphorus compound of formula (I). The phosphorus compound is prepared by reacting a compound of formula (II) with alkylene carbonate. As compared with the conventional phosphorus compounds as flame-resistant additives, the phosphorus compound of the present invention has not only a high pyrolysis temperature but also excellent solubility in most of the organic solvents with high or low polarity, and is therefore a suitable flame-resistant additive for use in thermosetting or thermoplastic resins.
