Glycerol has a substantially lower solubility in C02as shown in an accompanying graph of glycerol solubility in the patent. The invention is the use of glycerol for drying wet, supercritical CO2. 

On acetylation it gives acetanilide. Nitrated with some decomposition to a mixture of 2-and 4-nitroanilines. It is basic and gives water-soluble salts with mineral acids. Heating aniline sulphate at 190 C gives sulphanilic add. When heated with alkyl chlorides or aliphatic alcohols mono- and di-alkyl derivatives are obtained, e.g. dimethylaniline. Treatment with trichloroethylene gives phenylglycine. With glycerol and sulphuric acid (Skraup s reaction) quinoline is obtained, while quinaldine can be prepared by the reaction between aniline, paraldehyde and hydrochloric acid. 

Dissolve 0 5 ml. of glycerol in 20 ml. of w ater, and add 20 ml. of the above 5% aqueous sodium periodate solution. After 15-20 minutes add 12 ml. of the above 10% ethanolic dimedone solution, and stir well at intervals for another 15 minutes. The addition of the dimedone solution may cause a rapid precipitation of some of the dimedone itself, which is only slightly soluble in water, whereas the formaldehyde-dimedone compound separates more slowly from the solution. 

Physical Properties. All colourless liquids, completely miscible with water, except benzyl alcohol and cyclohexanol, which are slightly soluble. Pure glycol and glycerol have high viscosity, which falls as the hygroscopic liquids absorb water from the air. 

When dealing with esters of water-soluble, non steam-volatile, poly-hydric alcohols e.g., ethylene glycol or glycerol), the distillate consists of water only (density 1 00). The water soluble, non-volatile alcohol may be isolated by evaporation of the alkahne solution to a thick syrup on a water bath and extraction of the polyhydric alcohol from the salt with cold ethyl alcohol. 

Esters can participate m hydrogen bonds with substances that contain hydroxyl groups (water alcohols carboxylic acids) This confers some measure of water solubil ity on low molecular weight esters methyl acetate for example dissolves m water to the extent of 33 g/100 mL Water solubility decreases as the carbon content of the ester increases Fats and oils the glycerol esters of long chain carboxylic acids are practically insoluble m water... 

MetaUic ions are precipitated as their hydroxides from aqueous caustic solutions. The reactions of importance in chlor—alkali operations are removal of magnesium as Mg(OH)2 during primary purification and of other impurities for pollution control. Organic acids react with NaOH to form soluble salts. Saponification of esters to form the organic acid salt and an alcohol and internal coupling reactions involve NaOH, as exemplified by reaction with triglycerides to form soap and glycerol,... 

Docusate Sodium. Aerosol OT, Colace, and Doxinate are trade names of docusate sodium [577-11-7] (dioctyl sodium sulfo succinate, sodium salt of l,4-bis(2-etliylhexyl)estet butanedioic). This white, wax-like, plastic sohd, with a characteristic odor suggestive of octyl alcohol, is usually available in the form of pellets. One gram of the sodium salt slowly dissolves in about 70 mL water. Docusate sodium is freely soluble in alcohol and glycerol, very... 

Physical properties of glycerol are shown in Table 1. Glycerol is completely soluble in water and alcohol, slightly soluble in diethyl ether, ethyl acetate, and dioxane, and insoluble in hydrocarbons (1). Glycerol is seldom seen in the crystallised state because of its tendency to supercool and its pronounced freesing point depression when mixed with water. A mixture of 66.7% glycerol, 33.3% water forms a eutectic mixture with a freesing point of —46.5°C. 

The newer HFC refrigerants are not soluble in or miscible with mineral oils or alkylbenzenes. The leading candidates for use with HFC refrigerants are polyol ester lubricants. These lubricants are derived from a reaction between an alcohol and a normal or branched carboxyflc acid. The most common alcohols used are pentaerythritol, trimethylolpropane, neopentjlglycol, and glycerol. The acids are usually selected to give the correct viscosity and fluidity at low temperatures. 

Perhalates. Whereas silver perchlorate [7783-93-9] AgClO, and silver periodate [15606-77-6] AglO, are well known, silver perbromate [54494-97-2] AgBrO, has more recendy been described (18). Silver perchlorate is prepared from silver oxide and perchloric acid, or by treating silver sulfate with barium perchlorate. Silver perchlorate is one of the few silver salts that is appreciably soluble in organic solvents such as glycerol, toluene, and chlorobenzene. 

Sodium iodide crystallizes ia the cubic system. Physical properties are given ia Table 1 (1). Sodium iodide is soluble ia methanol, ethanol, acetone, glycerol, and several other organic solvents. SolubiUty ia water is given ia Table 2. 

Selected physical and chemical properties of sodium nitrate are Hsted in Table 1. At room temperature, sodium nitrate is an ododess and colodess soHd, moderately hygroscopic, saline in taste, and very soluble in water, ammonia, and glycerol. Detailed physical and chemical properties are also available (3,4). 

Physical Properties. Anhydrous sodium sulfite [7757-83-7] Na2S02, is an odorless, crystalline soHd and most commercial grades other than by-product materials are colorless or off-white (331—334). It melts only with decomposition. The specific gravity of the pure soHd is 2.633 (15.4°C). Sodium sulfite is quite soluble in water. It has a maximum solubiHty of 28 g/100 g sol at 33.4°C at higher and lower temperatures, it is less soluble in water. Below this temperature, the heptahydrate crystallizes above this temperature, the anhydrous salt crystallizes. Sodium sulfite is soluble in glycerol but insoluble in alcohol, acetone, and most other organic solvents. 

Physical Properties. Sodium metabisulfite (sodium pyrosulfite, sodium bisulfite (a misnomer)), Na2S20, is a white granular or powdered salt (specific gravity 1.48) and is storable when kept dry and protected from air. In the presence of traces of water it develops an odor of sulfur dioxide and in moist air it decomposes with loss of part of its SO2 content and by oxidation to sodium sulfate. Dry sodium metabisulfite is more stable to oxidation than dry sodium sulfite. At low temperatures, sodium metabisulfite forms hydrates with 6 and 7 moles of water. The solubiHty of sodium metabisulfite in water is 39.5 wt % at 20°C, 41.6 wt % at 40°C, and 44.6 wt % at 60°C (340). Sodium metabisulfite is fairly soluble in glycerol and slightly soluble in alcohol.
