Assignee:

Union Camp Corporation - Wayne NJ

International Classification:

C08F 808

Appl. No.:

6/733256

Inventors:

Kathryn S. Hayes - Norristown PA

Assignee:

Union Camp Corporation - Wayne NJ

International Classification:

C07C 67313
C07C 69602

US Classification:

560190

Abstract:

A process for producing long-chained diesters of C. sub. 22 and C. sub. 32 diacids. The process comprises the steps of reacting cyclohexanone with an alcohol of 1-6 carbon atoms and hydrogen peroxide in the presence of an acid catalyst and water at a temperature below the boiling point of the alcohol. Methoxycyclohexyl hydroperoxide is thus produced and reacted with a terpene diene in the presence of a transition metal salt in a nitrogen atmosphere to produce long-chained diesters of C. sub. 22 and C. sub. 32 diacids. These long-chained diesters are then separated from the reaction mixture.

Assignee:

Union Camp Corporation - Wayne NJ

International Classification:

C07C 51353
C07C 5702

US Classification:

562595

Abstract:

A process for polymerizing unsaturated dicarboxylic acids comprises heating the acids in the presence of a catalytic proportion of an unactivated clay and water. The product dimer is distilled to separate unreacted monomer acids. The product dimers of 36, 40 and 44 content are useful as corrosion inhibitors, epoxy resin curing agents, lubricants and intermediates for synthetic polymeric resins and polymeric resin plasticizers.

Assignee:

Union Camp Corporation - Wayne NJ

International Classification:

C08H 300

US Classification:

260407

Abstract:

A process for polymerizing unsaturated fatty acids comprises heating the fatty acids in the presence of a catalytic proportion of an unactivated clay and water. The product polymerizate is distilled to separate unreacted monomer acids which are separately polymerized under similar conditions. Higher overall polymer yields are obtained.
