RESEARCH RESULTS The Inhibition of Autoxidation by Substituted Phenols

Pure Cresylic Acids from Petroleum by Solvent Extraction

J. F. Hedenburg, Gulf Research @ Deuelopment Company

D. C. Jones, J . A . Kohlbeck, and M . B. Neuworth, Consolidation Coal Company

Correlation of inhibitor factors of alkyl phenols has been obtained with both critical oxidation potential and substituent constants of Hammett and Taft. An equation was derived which permits estimation of the inhibitor factor if constants for the substituents are known.

Novel process for recovery of acids from spent caustic used to desulfurize gasoline. By refining mixture of cresylic acids and thiophenols with aqueous methanol-hexane, minimum recovery of 95% acids obtained, with simultaneous elimination of 99.5+ % thiophenols. Commercial plant, in operation five years, produces acids of comparable yield and purity. Variables affecting purity and recovery discussed.

Joseph Green, Nathan B. Levine, and Robert C . Keller, Thiokol Chemical Corporation Data show various hydrocarbon elastomers compatible with hydrazine-type fuels for a t least 30 days a t 160’ F. Several suitable for static as well as dynamic applications. Data presented indicate that two elastomer compositions are suitable for short term application in N204. Resin-coated elastomers not compatible with NnOa. Metal encapsulation of elastomers promising, but has had limited success to date. Polymer resistance to fluorine-containing oxidizers discussed.

Process Optimization by Search Techniques

D . M . Himmelblau, University of Texas Concerns the general problem of solving a set of m simultaneous equations with n unknowns (rn < n ) , where n can be subject to constraints. Includes a modified “direct search” technique, with example of application given for optimization of simplified butane isomerization process.

Several heavy cycle oil adductants studied in pure form with thiourea. Principal adductable components appear to be alkylated and kata-condensed aromatic hydrocarbons and heterocycles. Location of alkyl sdbstituent important to adduction reaction. Thiourea adduction may be used in separation of complex natural and synthetic products.

Kinetics of the Copper-Ferric Chloride Reaction and the Effects of Certain Inhibitors

W . H . Burrows, C. Turner Lewis, Jr., Donald E. Saire, and Rdbert E. Brooks, Georgia Institute o j Technology Temperature coefficient, activation energies, and linear flow rate dependence support postulate of diffusion-controlled reaction between copper and ferric chloride. A reaction rate dependence on sample position offers further proof. Viscosity and density data presented with derivation of actual molarity function (dependent on kinematic viscosity). Thiourea, ethylene thiourea, and formamidine disulfide show similar maximum molar concentrations, above which only constant reaction rate occurs. Heights, but not position, of maxima and minima change with flow rate variation. Positions shift to higher concentration of inhibitors with increase in temperature.

Approximate Solutions and Variable Density Effects for Chemical Reactors with Axial Dispersion

Richard G . Griskey and David H. Archer, Carnegie Institute Technology

Kenneth B. Bischoff, University of Texas

I n test with data for butane-air system, criterion found qualitatively correct with quantitative approximation. Both induction period and ignition temperature with composition and turbulence can be predicted. Criterion can also fully delineate ignition limit-velocity curve from sparse data.

Effects of variable fluid density tend to “cancel,” if ratios with respect to piston flow values at the same conditions are used. Perturbation solutions also presented for the general case of an nth order chemical reaction occurring in a reactor with small amounts of axial dispersion.

Unfortunately this is done all too often without permission of the American Chemical Society, the copyright holder. The ACS does allow subscribers t o CHEMICAL ABSTRACTS to reprint from this publication. However, there is a fee for this service if more than an occasional abstract is reproduced.

This fee is essential to the support of CHEMICAL ABSTRACTS. I n 1962 it will cost approximately $4 million t o produce this publication. Therefore, income from every available source must be sought. If unlicensed reproduction for internal distribution is permitted to flourish, the need for additional subscriptions to CHEMICAL ABSTRACTS by those doing the re-

producing is lessened. If the reproduction is done for external distribution-. a company's technical bulletin for distribution to customers, for example-the recipient of the bulletin may not enter a subscription to CHEMICAL ABSTRACTS which he otherwise would need.

Highest purity corn mercially ava ilab le. Minimum unstable hydroperoxide contaminants. Uniform, predictable performance.

Maurice A. Shapiro and Shih-ming Ho, University of Pittsburgh Basic factors relating to dewaterability of sewage sludges are dependent upon the normally small particle sizes of sludge constituents. Mechanisms of conditioning with FeCla, which result in improved dewaterability characteristics, can be explained by using coordination and intermediate theories.
