Abstract: A process for recovering glycols from used glycol-containing technical fluids, especially from used antifreeze comprises adding to the used glycol-containing technical fluids an organic solvent which forms with the glycol to be separated off an azeotropic mixture which has a lower boiling point than the glycol itself and distilling off this azeotropic mixture.

Abstract: The preparation of alkoxylates of oligoamines or polyamines by a two-stage procedure where, in the first stage, one molecule of alkylene oxide per NH group is added onto the oligoamines or polyamines in the presence of water, alcohols or acids or a mixture thereof in the absence of a neutral or basic catalyst and, in the second stage, after removal of water and acids reaction with further alkylene oxide is carried out in the presence of a conventional neutral or basic catalyst, entails, before the second stage is carried out, an organic solvent or diluent or a mixture thereof from the group of(a) alcohols and phenols and their alkoxylates,(b) polyalcohols based on ethylene oxide, propylene oxide, butylene oxide or a mixture thereof,(c) N-substituted carboxamides,(d) alkanolmonoamines and alkanolpolyamines and their alkoxylates,(e) other alkoxylates of oligoamines or polyamines,(f) aromatic hydrocarbons,(g) aliphatic hydrocarbons,(h) ethers and(i) sulfones or sulfoxidesbeing added.

Abstract: Carbamates having a long-chain N-alkyl radical, a process for the preparation of the carbamates in a conventional manner and fuels and lubricants which contain these carbamates as additives.

Abstract: Acyloxybenzenesulfonic acids and their alkali metal and alkaline earth metal salts are prepared by sulfonation of phenol in the presence of a small amount of a complexing agent for the sulfonating agent SO.sub.3 or chlorosulfonic acid, followed by esterification and, if required, neutralization to give the alkali metal or alkaline earth metal salt.

Abstract: Alkylglucosides are prepared by acetalization of glucose with an equivalent amount or an excess of a C.sub.3 -C.sub.5 -alkanol in the presence of an acidic catalyst by a method wherein the acetalization is carried out in the presence of an alkali metal salt of a boric acid used in an amount which is equivalent to or in excess of the amount of the catalyst.The alkylglucosides obtained can be used directly, for example as solubilizers, in particular in the cosmetic sector, or can be reacted further to give higher alkylglucosides.

Abstract: Acyloxybenzenesulfonic acids and their alkali metal and alkaline earth metal salts are prepared by a process comprising sulfonation of a phenyl ester in the presence or absence of a small amount of a complexing agent for the sulfonating agent SO.sub.3 or chlorosulfonic acid, subsequent acylation and, if desired, neutralization to give the alkali metal or alkaline earth metal salt, and, if required, subjecting the latter to oxidative bleaching before drying.

Abstract: Alkali metal and alkaline earth metal salts of acyloxybenzenesulfonic acids of the formula I ##STR1## where R is a saturated or unsaturated alkyl radical of 1 to 17 carbon atoms or is phenyl which is unsubstituted or monosubstituted or disubstituted by alkyl of 1 to 3 carbon atoms, halogen, methoxy or nitro, are prepared by neutralization, by a method in which a liquid acyloxybenzenesulfonic acid of the formula I and an aqueous solution of an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal hydroxide, carbonate or bicarbonate are combined in water, at from 0.degree. to 60.degree.
