20130289236 | ALKYLENE OXIDE POLYMERIZATION USING A DOUBLE METAL CYANIDE CATALYST COMPLEX AND A MAGNESIUM, GROUP 3 - GROUP 15 METAL OR LANTHANIDE SERIES METAL COMPOUND - Alkylene oxide polymerizations are performed in the presence of a double metal cyanide polymerization catalyst and certain magnesium, Group 3-Group 15 metal or lanthanide series metal compounds. The presence of the magnesium, Group 3-Group 15 metal or lanthanide series metal compound provides several benefits including more rapid catalyst activation, faster polymerization rates and the reduction in the amount of ultra high molecular weight polymers that are formed. The catalyst mixture is unexpectedly useful in making polyethers having low equivalent weights. | 10-31-2013 |
20140081055 | PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF CHLORINATED PROPENES - Processes for the production of chlorinated propenes are provided. The present processes make use of 1,2-dichloropropane, a by-product in the production of chlorohydrin, as a low cost starting material, alone or in combination with 1,2,3-trichloropropane. The present processes can also generate anhydrous HCl as a byproduct that can be removed from the process and used as a feedstock for other processes, providing further time and cost savings. Finally, the processes are advantageously conducted in the liquid phase, thereby presenting additional savings as compared to conventional, gas phase processes. | 03-20-2014 |
20140100394 | PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF CHLORINATED PROPENES - Processes for the production of chlorinated propenes are provided. The present processes make use of a feedstream comprising 1,2-dichloropropane, a by-product in the production of chlorohydrin, as a low cost starting material, alone or in combination with 1,2,3-trichloropropane. Selectivity of the process is enhanced over conventional processes employing successive chlorinations and/or dehydrochlorinations, by conducting at least one chlorination in the presence of an ionic chlorination catalyst. The present processes may also generate anhydrous HCl as a byproduct that can be removed from the process and used as a feedstock for other processes, providing further time and cost savings. | 04-10-2014 |
20140163265 | PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF CHLORINATED PROPENES - Processes for the production of chlorinated propenes are provided. The present processes make use of a feedstock comprising 1,2,3-trichloropropane and chlorinates the 1,1,2,3-tetrachloropropane generated by the process prior to a dehydrochlorination step. Production of the less desirable pentachloropropane isomer, 1,1,2,3,3-pentachloropropane, is thus minimized. The present processes provide better reaction yield as compared to conventional processes that require dehydrochlorination of 1,1,2,3-tetrachloropropane prior to chlorinating the same. The present process can also generate anhydrous HCl as a byproduct that can be removed from the process and used as a feedstock for other processes, while limiting the production of waste water, thus providing further time and cost savings. | 06-12-2014 |

20140179962 | PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF CHLORINATED PROPENES - Processes for the production of chlorinated propenes are provided wherein a dehydrochlorination reaction occurs prior to a first chlorination reaction. The present processes make use of at least one reactor twice, i.e., at least two reactions occur in the same reactor. Cost and time savings are thus provided. Additional savings can be achieved by conducting more than two chlorination reactions, or all chlorination reactions, in one chlorination reactor, and/or by conducting more than two dehydrochlorination reactions, or all dehydrochlorination reactions, within a single dehydrochlorination reactor. | 06-26-2014 |
20140238868 | ELECTROPLATING BATH - Compositions suitable for the electrodeposition of copper on substrates, such as electronic device substrates, are provided. Methods of depositing copper layers on surfaces and filling apertures with copper are also provided. | 08-28-2014 |
20140357887 | Process for Making Hybrid Polyester-Polyether Polyols - Hybrid polyester-polyether polyols are prepared by polymerizing an alkylene oxide in the presence of a carboxylate initiator. The polymerization is catalyzed with a mixture of double metal cyanide catalyst complex and certain magnesium, group 3-group 15 metal or lanthanide series metal compounds. | 12-04-2014 |
