Abstract:
The present invention relates to an improved process for isolating 2,4-bis-(2,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-6-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3,5-triazine (DIOPAT) from a DIOPAT-containing aqueous mixture N, wherein the process comprises the steps of concentrating the aqueous mixture N to obtain a DIOPAT-containing aqueous suspension S1 having a certain solid content; evaporating solvent from the aqueous suspension S1; and drying the DIOPAT to obtain a solid content of more than 90 wt.-%, based on the total weight of the DIOPAT.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a continuous process for the manufacture of highly-branched homo- or copolymers of C3-C8 ethylenically unsaturated mono- or dicarboxylic acid as well as the anhydrides and salts thereof (monomer A) by means of free-radical polymerization of monomer A and optionally water-soluble, monethylenically unsaturated comonomers (monomer B) in an aqueous medium in the presence of at least one water-soluble initiator, wherein the polymerization takes place in at least one tubular reactor segment.
