Publication number: 20160168081Abstract: A solvent is at least partially separated from a catalyst. The catalyst comprises nickel and a bidentate phosphorus-containing ligand. The method for separation involves distilling a catalyst solution. The ratio of 2-pentenenitrile to 3-pentenenitrile in distillation column bottoms is controlled to reduce the amount of 3-pentenenitrile which is isomerized to form 2-methyl-3-butenenitrile. Isomerization of 3-pentenenitrile to 2-methyl-3-butenenitrile and subsequent isomerization of 2-methyl-3-butenenitrile to 2-methyl-2-butenenitrile, and/or hydrocyanation of 2-methyl-3-butenenitrile to methylglutaronitrile represents a loss in adiponitrile yield in a process for making adiponitrile.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 16, 2014Publication date: June 16, 2016Applicant: INVISTA TECHNOLOGIES S.A R.L.Inventors: Sudhir N.V.K.

Publication number: 20160168085Abstract: A method of making an amino acid triisocyanate is provided, the method comprising reacting an amino acid trihydrochloride with phosgene to form the amino acid triisocyanate. In some embodiments, the amino acid trihydrochloride comprises lysine ester trihydrochloride salt and the amino acid triisocyanate comprises lysine ester triisocyanate. In some embodiments, there is a lysine ester triisocyanate having a purity of at least about 98%, the lysine ester triisocyanate having a structure resulting from reacting lysine ester trihydrochloride salt with phosgene to form the lysine ester triisocyanate. These lysine ester triisocyanates can be used to make biodegradable polyurethanes.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 19, 2016Publication date: June 16, 2016Inventors: Roger E. Harrington, Kerem N.

Publication number: 20160168086Abstract: A specific cross-linker, an alkaline metal bis(styrenesulfonyl)imide monomer, is used in the synthesis of single ionic conductive copolymers that are non-fluorinated and non-PEO based. Such copolymers meet the security and costs requirements to be used as solid polymers electrolytes (SPE). They are promising alternatives to standard liquid electrolytes in alkaline metal-ion batteries because of their improved security and inflammability properties. The copolymers described are either polyvinylsulfonates or acrylate vinylsulfonate block-copolymers. Preferred acrylate monomers are methacrylates and preferred vinylsulfonates are styrene sulfonates. The copolymer is prepared by radical polymerization of the vinyl sulfonate and the cross-linker and optionally the acrylate, in particular radical photopolymerization using a functionalized bis(acyl)phosphane oxide (BAPO) as photoinitiator. Also described is the use of such copolymer as solid polymer electrolyte in a lithium ion battery.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 1, 2015Publication date: June 16, 2016Applicant: Belenos Clean Power Holding AGInventors: Jose Antonio GONZALEZ MARTINEZ, Monica TRINCADO RODRIGUEZ-PICK, Hansjorg Friedrich GRUTZMACHER
