  • Publication number: 20200115314
    Abstract: Systems and methods for producing a non-phthalate based plasticizer. The systems and methods involve dissolving a carboxylic acid and/or anhydride thereof in an alcohol at a temperature below the melting point of the carboxylic anhydride. An advantage of the method is reduced energy consumption compared to conventional methods that require melting the carboxylic anhydride. Furthermore, the method enables the production of non-phthalate based plasticizer in an existing phthalate based plasticizer production facility with minimal modification, thereby reducing capital expenditure.

  • Publication number: 20200115318
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing diamines and polyamines of the diphenylmethane series, by condensing aniline and formaldehyde followed by an acid-catalysed rearrangement at different production capacities with alteration of the content of diamines of the diphenylmethane series (altering the binuclear content). Adapting the molar ratio of the total used aniline to the total used formaldehyde and adapting the reaction temperature allows the rearrangement reaction to be fully completed despite the change in dwell time inevitably associated with a change in production capacity, and allows the formation of undesired by-products to be avoided as far as possible; the intended modification to binuclear content is likewise achieved.

  • Publication number: 20200115356
    Abstract: The present invention provides compounds and methods for modulation of the quorum sensing of bacteria. In an embodiment, the compounds of the present invention are able to act as replacements for naturally occurring bacterial quorum sensing ligands in a ligand-protein binding system; that is, they imitate the effect of natural ligands and produce an agonistic effect. In another embodiment, the compounds of the present invention are able to act in a manner which disturbs or inhibits the naturally occurring ligand-protein binding system in quorum sensing bacteria; that is, they produce an antagonistic effect. The compounds of the present invention comprise N-acylated-homoserine lactones (AHLs) comprised of a wide range of acyl groups.
