For example, Day-Glo HM Series toners come ia a range of colors suitable for flexographic and gravure inks of the solvent-base type. The Radiant GF Series and Lawter HVT Series are also suitable for this type of apphcation (see Table 2). Generally, these toners are of the formaldehyde—sulfonamide type and requite oxygenated solvents, primarily alcohol—ester blends, for proper solution. For appHcations such as flexographic printing on film, these materials are modified with other resias such as nitrocellulose or polyamides ia the finished ink. 

The nitro alcohols generally are soluble in water and in oxygenated solvents, eg, alcohols. The monohydtic nitro alcohols are soluble in aromatic hydrocarbons the diols are only moderately soluble even at 50°C at 50°C the triol is insoluble. 

JSlonhydrocarbon and Oxygenated Solvents. Most kidustrial solvents that are not hydrocarbons are pure chemical compounds. As such, they have sharp boiling pokits and weU-defined properties. Specifications for these solvents focus mosdy on impurities such as water and other contaminants. This also means that a solvent from one manufacturer should perform the same as the same solvent from another manufacturer any differences are probably the result of impurities, stabiLker content, etc, rather than the properties of the overall solvent. 

Ethyl acetate is an oxygenated solvent widely used in the inks, pharmaceuticals and fragrance sectors. The current global capacity for ethyl acetate is 1.2 million tonnes per annum. BP Chemicals is the world s largest producer of ethyl acetate. Conventional methods for the production of ethyl acetate are either via the liquid phase esterification of acetic acid and ethanol or by the coupling of acetaldehyde also known as the Tischenko reaction. Both of these processes require environmentally unfriendly catalysts (e.g. p-toluenesulphonic acid for the esterification and metal chlorides and strong bases for the Tischenko route). In 1997 BP Chemicals disclosed a new route to produce ethyl acetate directly from the reaction of ethylene with acetic acid using supported heteropoly acids... 

If KAma is large D becomes larger than KD at low pH, resulting in a more efficient extraction of the acid. Dimerization is only slight in oxygenated solvents and extraction into them is therefore less efficient than into benzene or carbon tetrachloride. 

Contaminants can be any chemical substance used in the plant that does not belong in the reaction system. This includes coolants, air (oxygen), solvents, lubricants, rust, and so forth. Changes in chemical feed stocks, for example, from using different suppliers, can result in the introduction of contaminants as well. The result of contamination may be ... 

Consequently, the red-complex is extracted with either solvents possessing donor oxygen atoms, such as 3-methyl butanol. However, Mo (VI) may also be extracted with diethyl ether-an oxygenated solvent, because it yields the maximum percentage extractive with 7.0 M NH4 SCN as could be seen from the following Table 27.2. 

Behaviour with halogenated solvents, bases, oxidizing acids, amines and aromatic oxygenated solvents can be limited.

Compensation for background currents due to evolution of hydrogen, reduction of oxygen, solvent oxidation, or surface processes, was made by recording the voltammogram while the sample and carrier solution followed through the cell. The difference between these was taken as the net response for the sample [161]. 

Complex formation equilibria in binary mixtures of chloroform with dipropyl ether (PE), diisopropyl ether (IPE), methyl tert-butyl ether(MBE), tetrahydrofuran (THE), 1,4-dioxane (DOX), acetone (AC), and methyl acetate (MA) have been analyzed in detail. The complex formation equilibria in chloroform mixtures was compared to those previously examined for halothane (2-bromo-2-chloro-l,l,l-trifluoroethane) mixed with the same oxygenated solvents. It was found that the H-bonds formed by halothane are stronger than those formed by chloroform (Dohnal and Costas, 1996). 

Gl) have been measured at 293.15 K. Complex-formation equilibria for these four halothane-oxygenated solvent mixtures have been analyzed in detail using several association models (Dohnal et al., 1996).

The impact these regulations and methods have had on solvent use is seen clearly in figs. 7.2 and 7.3 (Kirschner, 1994). Over the past 15 years the use of both hydrocarbon and chlorinated solvents has declined with only a minor increase in consumption of oxygenated solvents. In addition, while process solvents, consumer products and various miscellaneous applications have exhibited fairly constant solvent consumption, the cleaning and coatings industries have markedly decreased solvent use over...
