According to this diamond synthesizing apparatus, it is possible to keep pressure fluctuations and composition fluctuations following a reaction and gas addition, to the minimum and to vapor-phase synthesize diamond in very restricted ranges of gas composition and pressure.Type: GrantFiled: September 18, 1990Date of Patent: December 24, 1991Assignee: Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd.Inventors: Nobuhiro Ota, Naoji Fujimori

Patent number: 4795624Abstract: The preparation of carbon fluoride and carbon fluoride chloride from a graphite intercalate is described. Treatment of group V-A pentahalide intercalates of graphite with fluorine or fluorine/chlorine gas mixtures at a temperature of about 300.degree. C. results in the production of highly fluorinated CF.sub.x ; X.gtoreq.1 or (C.sub.y F.sub.x Cl.sub.z).sub.n ;x.gtoreq.1.0, y=1.In the process, carbon fluoride or carbon fluoride chloride can be prepared from a highly ordered graphitic carbon at a temperature substantially lower than that of the decomposition temperature of the product, CF.sub.x or (C.sub.y F.sub.x Cl.sub.z).sub.n. In particular, carbon fluoride or carbon fluoride chloride is prepared from a group V-A pentahalogen intercalate and fluorine gas or fluorine/chlorine gas mixtures at temperatures in the order of 250.degree.-300.degree. C.Type: GrantFiled: April 28, 1988Date of Patent: January 3, 1989Assignee: Allied-Signal Inc.Inventor: David Nalewajek

Patent number: 4766103Abstract: 1,2-dichlorobenzene is isomerized to 1,4-dichlorobenzene in the presence of a catalyst comprising (a) at least one of AlCl.sub.3 and AlBr.sub.3 and (b) at least one of iodine, alkaline earth metal halides and sulfates and lanthanide halides. Benzene and/or dichlorobenzene is chlorinated with free chlorine in the presence of a catalyst composition comprising (a) at least one suitable metal halide (preferably AlCl.sub.3, SbCl.sub.5 or FeCl.sub.3) and (b) free iodine and/or at least one organic iodo-compound (preferably methyl iodide of p-iodochlorobenzene), so as to obtain a reaction product comprising 1,4-dichlorobenzene. A preferred catalyst composition comprises (a) at least one of AlCl.sub.3 and AlBr.sub.3, (b) free iodine and (c) at least one of alkaline earth metal halides, alkaline earth metal sulfates and lanthanide halides.Type: GrantFiled: October 8, 1987Date of Patent: August 23, 1988Assignee: Phillips Petroleum CompanyInventor: Raymond L. Cobb

Patent number: 4714604Abstract: A method of separating HF from a mixture including HF and HCl is disclosed wherein the mixture is contacted with silica causing the HF to react with the silica to form SiF.sub.4. The concentration of HCl is increased thereby increasing the relative volatility of SiF.sub.4 /HCl. The SiF.sub.4 is then removed as an aqueous distillate. The concentration of the HCl can be increased by various methods including adding gaseous or concentrated HCl to the mixture or by distilling off a portion of the water to thereby increase the concentration of the HCl. This method provides an efficient method of removing SiF.sub.4 and HF from HCl.Type: GrantFiled: August 13, 1986Date of Patent: December 22, 1987Assignee: The Dow Chemical CompanyInventor: Robert S. Olson
