Olefination INDEX

The tendency for a solvent to form deposits by polymerization of impurities such as olefins is measured by the test for potential gums . Olefin content can also be represented by the bromine index , which is a measure of the degree of unsaturation (see paragraph 3.4.1).

When simple Hquids like naphtha are cracked, it may be possible to determine the feed components by gas chromatography combined with mass spectrometry (gc/ms) (30). However, when gas oil is cracked, complete analysis of the feed may not be possible. Therefore, some simple definitions are used to characterize the feed. When available, paraffins, olefins, naphthenes, and aromatics (PONA) content serves as a key property. When PONA is not available, the Bureau of Mines Correlation Index (BMCI) is used. Other properties like specific gravity, ASTM distillation, viscosity, refractive index. Conradson Carbon, and Bromine Number are also used to characterize the feed. In recent years even nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy has been... 

In order to locate items of interest in the book, the subject index lists, in addition to chemical operations, types of compounds rather than specific compounds (with a few exceptions). If, for example, readers do not find what they are looking for under the entry fluoroolefins , they may try olefins , double bonds, additions of , etc. 

This technology has been utilized by BP Chemicals for the production of lubricating oils with well defined characteristics (for example, pour point and viscosity index). It is used in conjunction with a mixture of olefins (i.e., different isomers and different chain length olefins) to produce lubricating oils of higher viscosity than obtainable by conventional catalysis [33]. Unichema Chemie BV have applied these principals to more complex monomers, using them with unsaturated fatty acids to create a mixture of products [34]. 

Bromine number (ASTM D-1159) and bromine index (ASTM D-2710) are qualitative methods to measure the reactive sites of a sample. Bromine reacts not only with olefm bonds, but also with basic nitrogen molecules and with some aromatic sulfur derivatives. Neverthele.ss. olefins are the most common reactive sites and the bromine number is used to indicate olefinicity of the feed. 

Alternatively, the bromine index is the number of milligrams of bromine that will react with 100 grams of the sample, and is most often used by the chemical industry for stocks that have very low olefin contents.

The SEC mechanism demands only an isocratic (constant composition) solvent system with normally a single solvent. The most frequently used organic solvents are THF, chloroform, toluene, esters, ketones, DMF, etc. The key solvent parameters of interest in SEC are (i) solubility parameter (ii) refractive index (iii) UV/IR absorbance (iv) viscosity and (v) boiling point. Sample solutions are typically prepared at concentrations in the region of 0.5-5 mg mL-1. In general an injection volume of 25-100p,L per 300 x 7.5 mm column should be employed. For SEC operation with polyolefins chlorinated solvents (for detector sensitivity and increased boiling point) and elevated temperatures (110 to 150 °C) are required to dissolve olefin polymer. HFIP is the preferred solvent for SEC analysis of polyesters and polyamides.

In addition to the epoxidation of olefins, zeolitic materials have been studied for other fine chemical transformations. Table 12.21 indexes the zeolites used for oxidative dehydrogenation of propane, direct hydroxylation of benzene to phenol and e-caprolactam synthesis. A recent review summarizes other reactions for which there is not enough space in the table [138, 139].

A foam comprising a blend of a low density polyethylene and an ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer is disclosed. The ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer is preferably LLDPE and has a density ranging from about 0.86 to 0.94 grams/cubic centimeter and a melt flow index of greater than 10 g/10 minutes. 

The composition comprises, per 100 pbw, from 60 to 90 pbw of a propylene homopolymer (A) having a melt flow index from 0.1 to 20 g/10 min and from 40 to 10 pbw of a propylene random copolymer (B) containing from 3 to 20 mol % of ethylene and/or an alpha-olefin having from 4 to 6 carbon atoms, the melt flow index of which ranges from 25 to 3000 g/10 min. It is used in the manufacture of expanded granules and moulded cellular articles. 

The results on olefin isomers (Table Vll) can also be explained by the observation that the constraint index of ZSM-5 is approximately unity under the conditions of this study. Shape selectivity or preferential conversion of straight chain olefins by ZSM-5 cannot be expected at 500 C. Thus, under the conditions of this study, olefin isomer distribution was not significantly affected by deactivated ZSM-5. At temperatures lower than that employed in the present study, it is conceivable that distribution of olefin isomers could be altered by steam deactivated ZSM-5. 

The selection of steam cracker feedstock is mainly driven by market demand as different feedstock qualities produce different olefins yields. One of the commonly used feed quality assessment methods in practice is the Bureau of Mines Correlation Index (BMCI) (Gonzalo et al., 2004). This index is a function of average boiling point and specific gravity of a particular feedstock. The steam cracker feed quality improves with a decrease in the BMCI value. For instance, vacuum gas oil (VGO) has a high value of BMCI and, therefore, is not an attractive steam cracker feed. The commonly used feedstocks in industry are naphtha and gas oil. 

The entries in Tables XIV-XXII have been arranged in order of formula, first the carbonyl compound then the olefin, as they would be found in Chemical Abstracts Formula Index.
