In the former USSR, there reportedly are two technologies in use one is old anthrahydroquinone autoxidation technology and the other is closed-loop isopropyl alcohol oxidation technology. Production faciUties include several smaller, 100-150-t/yr isopropyl alcohol oxidation plants and a larger, 15,000-t/yr plant, which reportedly is being expanded to 30,000-t/yr. Differences in this technology as compared to the Shell Chemical Co. process are the use of oxygen-enriched air in the oxidation step and, catalytic reduction of the coproduct acetone back to isopropyl alcohol per equation 21.

Prepn is by the high temp chlorination of propene, followed by hydrolysis of allyl chloride. Thus,. . Allyl chloride is hydrolyzed at 200psi pressure, 150°C and a pH range of 10—12. Injection of steam forms a water-allyl alcohol azeotrope, which is then treated with diallyl ether to remove water. Final purification by distn leads to a 98% min assay. . (Ref 2).

U.S. manufacturers of alphaolefins include Ethyl Corp., Shell Chemical Co., Shell Oil Co., and Texaco Chemical Co. (USITC 1993). More than 1 billion pounds of alphaolefins were produced in 1991 (USITC 1993), but no information concerning the volume of alphaolefins used in the production of polyalphaolefin hydraulic fluids was found in the available literature. 

Materials. Bisphenol A-epichlorohydrin condensate 1 (Eponol-55-B-40, Shell Chemical Co.) was precipitated from chloroform solution by addition of methanol three successive times prior to utilization. Polymer films of 1.5 and 15 pm were cast onto glass plates from chloroform solution. 

Oligomers and Resins. Oligomers and resins used were Ebecryl 3700 epoxy acrylate, Radcure Specialties, Inc., Smyrna, GA 30080 Unicarb, which is 73% UVR 6128 (a cycloaliphatic epoxy), 26.5% polyol and 0.5% Silwet L-7602 (See under miscellaneous compounds), Union Carbide Chemicals and Plastics Co., Inc., Danbury, CT 06817-0001 and Heloxy 505 Modifier, Shell Chemical Co., Houston, TX 77210. 

Norbomadiene as supplied by Shell Chemical Co. is used without further purification. Distillation of the norbomadiene immediately before use gives no change in yield of 7-/-butoxy-norbomadiene.

Kraton 1107 brand elastomer was from Shell Chemical Co., and it is synthesized by coupling the isoprenyl anion ends of a styrene/isoprene (SI) block copolymer to give styrene/isoprene/styrene (SI IS). Proton NMR analysis indicated 84% (wt.) isoprene and 16% (wt.) styrene. 

In addition to the established large volume products already mentioned, other plastic materials are known to be under study or have been introduced so recently that their markets have not been fully developed. It seems certain that products such as polyethylene terephthalate and polyacrylonitrile fibers will attain large volume production. A new type of resin that has appeared very recently is Shell Chemical Co. s Epon series (32), a group of polymers of various molecular weight ranges which are produced from phenol, acetone, and epichlorohydrin.
