Filed:

Jan 31, 2012

Appl. No.:

13/362314

Inventors:

CHANDRASHEKHAR H. JOSHI - Bedford MA, US
Michael Glenn Horner - West Roxbury MA, US

International Classification:

C07C 9/22
C25B 3/10
C07C 1/207
C07C 11/02
C07C 9/15

US Classification:

585 16, 585324, 585310, 205415

Abstract:

The present invention relates to fuel compositions and methods of making the same. The fuel compositions include hydrocarbon derived from a biological source selected from plant oil, animal fat and combinations thereof. The hydrocarbon and the fuel compositions are at least substantially oxygen-free. In particular, the fuel compositions are useful in cold temperature environments and as aviation fuel.

International Classification:

G03H 102

US Classification:

430 1

Abstract:

A holographic recording medium comprises an acid generator capable of producing an acid upon exposure to actinic radiation; a binder; and at least one monomer or oligomer capable of undergoing cationic polymerization initiated by the acid produced from the acid generator. This recording medium is not subject to the disadvantages (for example, oxygen sensitivity) associated with radical-polymerized prior art holographic recording media.

International Classification:

C25B 3/00

US Classification:

585326, 205462, 585324

Abstract:

Oils from plants and animal fats are hydrolyzed to fatty acids for a Kolbe reaction. The invention relates to a high productivity Kolbe reaction process for electrochemically decarboxylating C4-C28 fatty acids using small amounts of acetic acid to lower anodic passivation voltage and synthesizing C6-C54 hydrocarbons. The C6-C54 undergo olefin metathesis and/or hydroisomerization reaction process to synthesize heavy fuel oil, diesel fuel, kerosene fuel, lubricant base oil, and linear alpha olefin products useful as precursors for polymers, detergents, and other fine chemicals.
