Also disclosed is a composition of matter comprising: A) an ethylenically unsaturated monomer and B) an effective inhibiting amount, sufficient to prevent premature polymerization during distillation or purification of said ethylenically unsaturated monomer, of at least one inhibitor selected from the group consisting of C-nitrosoaniline and quinone imine oxime compounds used together with an effective amount of oxygen or air to enhance the inhibiting activity of said inhibitor.
Abstract:
Popcorn polymer growth is inhibited in unstabilized materials comprising olefinically unsaturated organic compounds by adding thereto an effective amount of an aliphatic alcohol of the formula I ROHnullnullI where R is a straight-chain, branched or cyclic C3-C20-alkyl or alkylene group, the alkylene group bearing a second hydroxyl group.
Abstract:

Abstract:
A process for purifying isoprene produced by catalytic decomposition of dimethyldioxane from carbonyl compounds and cyclopentadiene which involves passing isoprene at a temperature of 40.degree. to 70.degree. C. through a bed of a solid product such as an anion exchange resin or alkali (the latter may be used with or without an inert carrier), followed by subjecting the isoprene to close fractionation performed with at least 50 theoretical plates and at a reflux ratio of at least 3. The process of the present invention enables practically complete purification of isoprene from carbonyl compounds and cyclopentadiene. The purified isoprene, when used as a monomer in the production of stereospecific isoprene rubber, results in high-quality products; and reduces by a factor of 2-3 the Ziegler catalyst consumption in the isoprene rubber synthesis.
Abstract:
The method for preparing hydrocarbons consists of dehydrogenating olefinic hydrocarbons, namely n-butylenes or isoamylenes under isothermal conditions at a temperature of 560* - 600* C over a catalyst consisting of 35 - 50 per cent by weight of Cr2O3, 20 - 30 percent of Fe2O3, 20 - 25 percent of ZnO and 0.5 - 2 per cent by weight of SiO2, with dilution of the starting hydrocarbons with steam in the molar ratio of 1 : 10-20. The said dehydrogenating is effected in a rising current which is a mixture of the starting hydrocarbons, the catalyst and steam, the concentration of the catalyst in said current being 5 - 60 kg/cu.m. Spent catalyst is continuously separated from said current and is recovered in the down-going current. The recovery of the catalyst is effected in a fluid catalyst bed with air at a temperature of 570* - 590* C. The recovered catalyst is continuously returned into the dehydration process, the amount of the catalyst circulating in the system being 80 - 200 times that of the starting hydrocarbons. The reaction products are withdrawn from the system and separated. The proposed method is carried out on a continuous scale and ensures high yields of products (up to 65 percent by weight with respect to the starting hydrocarbons fed into the system), the conversion of the starting hydrocarbons and the selectivity of the process being high.
