Abstract
Polyphenylene oxides are prepared by the catalytic reaction of oxygen with a monohydroxyaromatic compound such as 2,6-xylenol in a continuous-flow tubular reactor containing multiple agitated zones. In the case of a copper catalyst system, it is often preferred to pre-mix the non-gaseous constituents of the reaction mixture in an inert atmosphere, and also to use a reactor with various agitator and zone dimensions in various regions.
