Provided are aminoalcohol compounds for use as additives for paints and coatings. The compounds are of the formula (I): wherein x, R, R, R, R, R, R, R, and Rare as defined herein. 

Aminoalcohol compounds and their use as zero or low VOC additives for paints and coatings

Disclosed is an apparatus for synthesizing nitroalkanes by reaction of a hydrocarbon feedstock with aqueous nitric acid. The apparatus may be designed such that it can synthesize more than one nitroalkane using the same equipment.

Hydrocarbon feed flexible high pressure nitration plant design

Disclosed are a process and an apparatus for synthesizing nitroalkanes by reaction of a hydrocarbon feedstock with aqueous nitric acid. Energy and capital costs may be reduced by recycling a majority of the aqueous phase back to the reactor.

Process for nitroalkane recovery by aqueous phase recycle to nitration reactor

This invention provides a method for shortstopping free radical polymerization reactions using a shortstopping agent comprising at least two alkyl hydroxylamines (AHAs) selected from the group consisting of primary AHAs, a mixture of at least one of each of primary and secondary AHAs, and salts thereof. A method for producing elastomers using the aforesaid shortstopping agents is also provided.

Alkyl hydroxylamine compounds and their use for shortstopping free radical polymerizations

This invention provides a method for shortstopping free radical polymerization reactions using combinations of N-isopropylhydroxylamine (IPHA) or salts thereof with either primary or secondary alkyl hydroxylamines, or with at least two primary alkyl hydroxylamines. A method for producing elastomers using the aforesaid shortstopping agents is also provided.

Disclosed are a process and an apparatus for concentrating an organic acid by using a nitroalkane as an entrainer for the azeotropic removal of water from an aqueous organic acid solution. The nitroalkane may be the same as a nitroalkane that is the product of a high pressure nitration process that produces nitroalkanes and aqueous organic acid.

Apparatus and process for using a nitroalkane as an entrainer for azeotropic removal of water from aqueous acid solution

Disclosed are processes and apparatuses for concentrating at least one organic acid using an alkyl acetate as an entrainer. The processes and apparatuses may use the same alkyl acetate as an entrainer to concentrate a mixture of organic acids.

Apparatus and process for nitration selectivity flexibility enabled by azeotropic distillation

Disclosed are a process and apparatus for synthesizing nitroalkanes by reaction of a hydrocarbon feedstock with aqueous nitric acid. Energy and capital costs may be reduced by using a dividing wall column.
