  • Method for producing polyester resin
    Patent number: 8263728
    Abstract: A method for producing polyester resin includes: esterifying an alcoholic component, and an acid component containing polyvalent carboxylic acid and/or an ester-forming derivative thereof in a reaction solution. A condition of reaction pressure is changed from a pressurized state to a normal pressure state, or to a depressurized state under a condition (I) that an acid-based extent of reaction of the esterification is 76-94%, and a condition (II) that an undissolved acid component is present in the reaction solution.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 26, 2009
    Date of Patent: September 11, 2012
    Assignee: Kao Corporation
    Inventors: Yuichi Kono, Kazuma Yoshida, Hidekazu Yawata, Seiki Yoshioka, Shinpei Oota

  • METHOD FOR PRODUCING A REACTION PRODUCT
    Publication number: 20070149826
    Abstract: A method for producing a reaction product using a reaction system in which an organic compound and water react with each other to generate the reaction product and furthermore part of the reaction product consecutively reacts. A filler for regulating the consecutive reaction of the reaction product is provided in a reaction field of a fluid mixture of the organic compound and the subcritical water.
