摘要:
Coal tar pitch is liquified at temperature of from about 135.degree. C. to 280.degree. C. The liquid coal tar pitch is filtered through a sieve with apertures from about 100 to 220 .mu.m and with a closed surface area of at least 75 percent of the total sieve surface under pressures of from about 2 to 10 bar until a filter cake of a height of from about 40 to 80 mm forms above the sieve for separating ash, soot and quinoline insoluble particles from the liquid. Then the filtrate obtained is subjected to a coking process.The needle cokes resulting in accordance with the invention provide excellent materials for the production of graphite electrodes.
摘要:
Coal-tar pitch is heated to a temperature which is at least 100.degree. C above its softening point but below its decomposition temperature and is mixed with a filter aid, such as kieselghur or activated carbon prior to filtering the pitch at at least the preheat temperature so as to remove ashes, soot and heavy metals therefrom. The thus-purified pitch is then coked. In this manner, it is possible to obtain high-quality, anisotropic acicular coke which is readily convertible into graphite.

Coal-containing shaped bodies are made by intimately mixing particulate coal with 10 to 30 percent by weight of a polymer. The mixture is shaped by subjecting it to a pressure between about 295 and 3430 newtons per square centimeter. Shaping takes place within a temperature range of 100.degree. to 250.degree. C. The shaped bodies have high compressive and bending strengths and can be precisely dimensioned.
摘要:
A carbonaceous adsorbent in the form of a shaped body which has been heated to about 400 to 1400.degree. C in an inert atmosphere is composed essentially of a mixture of finely divided carbonaceous material of a grain size below 50 and up to below 100 microns with a binder composed of about 1 to 20% by weight of a natural or synthetic elastomer and about 1 to 15% by weight of a thermoplastic material. The adsorbent is made by subjecting the mixture to a shaping step followed by heating to a temperature of about 400.degree. to 1400.degree. C in an inert atmosphere which step may be followed by an activation of the carbonaceous material.

Manufacture of isotropic coke by first selecting as feed material tar from low temperature carbonization with a hydrogen content above 5.5%, a carbon content less than 88% and a softening point above 60.degree. C., filtering the tar to remove solid particles, and heating the filtrate to a temperature between about 900.degree. C. and 1300.degree. C. to form an isotropic coke.
摘要:
Pitch having a Kramer-Sarnow softening point between 70.degree. and 190.degree. C is heated to a temperature in the range of 40.degree. to 100.degree. C above the softening point thereof. There is thus obtained a molten mass having non-molten particles distributed therein. A filtering operation under a pressure greater than atmospheric pressure is carried out to remove the particles from the molten mass. The molten mass may then be treated in different ways. According to one embodiment, the molten mass is held at a temperature between 280.degree. and 350.degree. C to distill off low molecular weight components of the pitch and the resulting product is thereafter shaped by extrusion to the form of strands. According to another embodiment, the molten mass is cooled, ground to particulate form and contacted with an aliphatic solvent having a boiling point between 60.degree. and 70.degree. C. This solvent dissolves a portion of the ground mass and, after separation of the solvent from the residue, the latter is heated to a molten state and thereafter extruded into the form of strands. In either embodiment, the previously mentioned filtering operation provides for a greater homogeneity of the strands since the non-molten particles, which could form a second phase, are substantially completely eliminated. In both embodiments, the strands obtained are dusted with finely divided activated carbon which has been impregnated with a liquid oxidizing agent. The dusted strands are oxidized in an oxidizing atmosphere at temperatures between 300.degree. and 400.degree. C. The oxidation increases the melt-resistance of the strands. The oxidized strands are next carbonized, the increased melt-resistance thereof preventing melting of the strands during the carbonizing treatment. If desired, the strands may also be graphitized. The method described enables carbon-containing or graphite-containing strands suitable for many applications to be produced in a much shorter time than was possible heretofore.

摘要:
A process for the manufacture of anthraquinones in which o-benzyl-toluene is first oxidized with 25 to 50 weight-% nitric acid at atmospheric pressure and moderate temperatures, and then further oxidized with a more dilute nitric acid at elevated temperatures and pressures to yield crude o-benzoyl-benzoic acid. The crude product is then esterified with methanol, the methyl ester distilled and, when necessary, recrystallized, and heated with concentrated sulfuric acid to yield anthraquinone in high yield and of a high degree of purity.
