  • Patent number: 4390451
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a concentrated aqueous composition of metal aldonate and/or ammonium aldonate. Part of the aldonate is dissolved and part of it is suspended in the water. Sodium gluconate is preferred. The present composition should contain a colloidally dispersed gum as suspending agent. Gums containing carboxyl groups such as xanthan gum are particularly well suited for making the suspension. In this manner, stable compositions having a high aldonate content are obtained. The composition can be used in cleansing preparations for glass and metal surfaces, in solution for etching aluminum, in galvanizing processes, in the tanning of leather, in paper making, in treatment of textiles, in paint removers, fixing baths in photography, and in agricultural and pharmaceutical preparations.

  • Patent number: 4115224
    Abstract: A process for curing acid-curable resins with photocatalyst compounds having the general formula: ##STR1## WHEREIN M = 0, 1 OR 2 AND P IS AN INTEGER FROM 1 TO 5 AND WHEREIN, WHEN P IS 1, R represents an alkyl or alkoxy group having at least 4 C-atoms, and when p>1, R represents alkyl or alkoxy groups having together at least 4 C-atoms. The photocatalyst which may be used is 2,2,2-trichloro-4'-tert-butylacetacetophenone. This compound may be prepared by chlorinating 4'-tert-butylacetophenone or by treating tert-butyl benzene in carbon disulfide with trichloroacetyl chloride or trichloroacetonitrile and aluminum chloride.

  • Patent number: 3933903
    Abstract: A process is disclosed for effectively producing a cycloalkylalkane carboxylic acid by reacting a cyclic ketone or a cyclic alcohol with a molten alkali metal hydroxide using a two step temperature treatment during the reaction wherein the first step temperature ranges from 200.degree. to 270.degree.C and the second step temperature ranges from 290.degree. to 350.degree.C. The alkali metal soap is then converted to the free acid. The process is especially directed to the manufacture of cyclopentylpropionic acid.
