Chlorination Hydrocarbons

Other nonpolymeric radical-initiated processes include oxidation, autoxidation of hydrocarbons, chlorination, bromination, and other additions to double bonds. The same types of initiators are generally used for initiating polymerization and nonpolymerization reactions. Radical reactions are extensively discussed in the chemical Hterature (3—15). 

Solvent Resistance. Poly(vinyl alcohol) is virtually unaffected by hydrocarbons, chlorinated hydrocarbons, carboxyhc acid esters, greases, and animal or vegetable oils. Resistance to organic solvents increases with increasing hydrolysis. This resistance has promoted the use of PVA in the manufacture of gloves for use when handling organic solvents (73). 

Asphalts characteristically contain very high molecular weight molecular polar species, called asphaltenes, which are soluble in carbon disulfide, pyridine, aromatic hydrocarbons, chlorinated hydrocarbons, and tetrahydrofiiran. 

Chlorination of Hydrocarbons or Chlorinated Hydrocarbons. Chlorination at pyrolytic temperatures is often referred to as chlorinolysis because it involves a simultaneous breakdown of the organics and chlorination of the molecular fragments. A number of processes have been described for the production of carbon tetrachloride by the chlorinolysis of various hydrocarbon or chlorinated hydrocarbon waste streams (22—24), but most hterature reports the use of methane as the primary feed. The quantity of carbon tetrachloride produced depends somewhat on the nature of the hydrocarbon starting material but more on the conditions of chlorination. The principal by-product is perchloroethylene with small amounts of hexachloroethane, hexachlorobutadiene, and hexachloroben2ene. In the Hbls process, a 5 1 mixture by volume of chlorine and methane reacts at 650°C the temperature is maintained by control of the gas flow rate. A heat exchanger cools the exit gas to 450°C, and more methane is added to the gas stream in a second reactor. The use of a fluidi2ed-bed-type reactor is known (25,26). Carbon can be chlorinated to carbon tetrachloride in a fluidi2ed bed (27). 

Chlorotoluene [95-49-8] (l-chloto-2-methylben2ene, OCT) is a mobile, colorless Hquid with a penetrating odor similar to chlorobenzene. It is miscible ia all proportions with many organic Hquids such as aUphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, chlorinated solvents, lower alcohols, ketones, glacial acetic acid, and di- -butylamine it is iasoluble ia water, ethylene and diethylene glycols, and triethanolamine. 

This powerful drying agent is suitable for use with hydrogen, argon, helium, nitrogen, hydrocarbons, chlorinated hydrocarbons, esters and higher alcohols. 

Maxwell s correlation was generated from hydrocarbon data only. Ludwig states that the Drickamer and Bradford correlation is good for hydrocarbons, chlorinated hydrocarbons, glycols, glycerine and related compounds, and some rich hydrocarbon absorbers and strippers. 

Solvents. NBRs are soluble in aromatic hydrocarbons, chlorinated hydrocarbons, ketones, esters and nitroparaffin compounds. Solvents with high evaporation rate are acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, chloroform and ethyl acetate, among others. Solvents with slow evaporation rate are nitromethane, dichloropentenes, chloro-toluene, butyl acetate and methyl isobutyl ketone.

Polymerization of triphenylmethyl methacrylate in the presence of a chiral anion catalyst results in a polymer with a helical structure that can be coated onto macroporous silica [742,804). Enantioselectivity in this case results from insertion and fitting of the analyte into the helical cavity. Aromatic compounds and molecules with a rigid nonplanar structure are often well resolved on this phase. The triphenylmethyl methacrylate polymers are normally used with eluents containing methanol or mixtures of hexane and 2-propanol. The polymers are soluble in aromatic hydrocarbons, chlorinated hydrocarbons and tetrahydrofuran which, therefore, are not suitable eluents.

Organic compounds such as the chlorinated solvents also include a wide range of compounds and do not easily fit into the structural classification as described for petroleum hydrocarbons. Chlorinated hydrocarbons are commonly discussed in terms of their relative density (i.e., LNAPL or DNAPL) or degree of halogenation and degree of volatility (i.e., volatile, semi-volatile).

PPEs are handicapped by an inherent sensitivity to fire and to common chemicals, such as hydrocarbons, chlorinated solvents and concentrated mineral acids. They have rather high coefficients of friction and are slightly attacked by UV and weathering, requiring UV protection. The number of producers is limited.
