MOBIL CHEMICAL

Plastic materials represent less than 10% by weight of all packagiag materials. They have a value of over 7 biUion including composite flexible packagiag about half is for film and half for botties, jars, cups, tubs, and trays. The principal materials used are high density polyethylene (HDPE) for botties, low density polyethylene for film, polypropylene (PP) for film, and polyester for both botties and films. Plastic resias are manufactured by petrochemical companies, eg. Union Carbide and Mobil Chemical for low density polyethylene (LDPE), Solvay for high density polyethylene, Himont for polypropylene, and Shell and Eastman for polyester. [Pg.451]

Two modifications of the duidized-bed reactor technology have been developed. In the first, two gas-phase duidized-bed reactors coimected to one another have been used by Mobil Chemical Co. and Union Carbide to manufacture HDPE resins with broad MWD (74,75). In the second development, a combination of two different reactor types, a small slurry loop reactor followed by one or two gas-phase duidized-bed reactors (Sphetilene process), was used by Montedision to accommodate a Ziegler catalyst with a special particle morphology (76,77). This catalyst is able to produce PE resins in the form of dense spheres with a diameter of up to 4—5 mm such resins are ready for shipping without pelletization. [Pg.385]

Acetaldehyde can be used as an oxidation-promoter in place of bromine. The absence of bromine means that titanium metallurgy is not required. Eastman Chemical Co. has used such a process, with cobalt as the only catalyst metal. In that process, acetaldehyde is converted to acetic acid at the rate of 0.55—1.1 kg/kg of terephthahc acid produced. The acetic acid is recycled as the solvent and can be isolated as a by-product. Reaction temperatures can be low, 120—140°C, and residence times tend to be high, with values of two hours or more (55). Recovery of dry terephthahc acid follows steps similar to those in the Amoco process. Eastman has abandoned this process in favor of a bromine promoter (56). Another oxidation promoter which has been used is paraldehyde (57), employed by Toray Industries. This leads to the coproduction of acetic acid. 2-Butanone has been used by Mobil Chemical Co. (58).
