Patent number: 4086181Abstract: For inhibiting corrosion and scale on ferrous metal parts in a circulating water system there is added to the water in such system from 10 to 500 ppm of a partial ester of a polyfunctional acid having a free carboxylate, phosphonate or sulfonate group and another carboxyl group which is esterified with a polyoxyalkylated derivative of an alkyl, alkaryl, or alkenyl alcohol having a terminal hydrocarbon group of 8-20 carbon atoms. In some preferred embodiments there is added with the partial ester from 10 to 500 ppm of a dispersible oil which may also include a surface active agent for dispersing the oil in water. Preferred partial esters include partial esters of citric, malic, tartaric, maleic, adipic and phthalic acids partially esterified with an alkyl polyoxyethylene alcohol having 2 to 4 ethoxy groups.Type: GrantFiled: February 14, 1977Date of Patent: April 25, 1978Assignee: American Cyanamid CompanyInventors: Tzeng Jiueq Suen, Arthur James Begala, Jr., Martin Grayson

Patent number: 4082788Abstract: Organic acids contained in aqueous solution are separated and/or recovered by a process comprising adding an alcohol to the aqueous solution to esterify the acids present, while preferably simultaneously contacting the alcoholic mixture with a water-immiscible solvent and separating layers into an aqueous phase and an organic phase, whereby extraction with the water-immiscible solvent shifts the equilibrium toward the formation of more esters. The esters of the acids may than be recovered as by distillation.Type: GrantFiled: August 19, 1969Date of Patent: April 4, 1978Assignee: El Paso Products CompanyInventor: Samuel S. Mims

Patent number: 4061612Abstract: Diesters of succinic, glutaric, adipic, and phthalic acid with hexyloxyethoxyethanol or butoxyethoxyethoxyethanol are disclosed. They are useful as plasticizers with extended temperature ranges in elastomers.Type: GrantFiled: July 6, 1976Date of Patent: December 6, 1977Assignee: Thiokol CorporationInventors: Eugene R. Bertozzi, Robert F. Hoffman, Robert Barclay

Patent number: 4059616Abstract: Polymers of esters of methacrylic acid having an average chain length of about 6 to about 50 mers are prepared by an anionic polymerization reaction, carried out in the presence of a chain-regulating alcohol and a catalytic amount of an alkoxide anion, in which control of the molecular weight and molecular weight distribution of the polymer are achieved by regulating the ratio of the total quantity of alcohol employed to the total monomer charge. These polymers, their hydrolysis products, and their derivatives having allyl functionality have a wide variety of applications, including use as components in films, coatings, fibers, impregnants, adhesives, printing inks, and binders, and use as modifiers, plasticizers, melt flow improvers, and leveling agents.Type: GrantFiled: October 23, 1974Date of Patent: November 22, 1977Assignee: Rohm and Haas CompanyInventors: Sheldon N. Lewis, Richard A. Haggard
