Analysis of Reaction Rate in Propoxylation

Propoxylation is useful for making materials of urethane foam and surfactants in industry. The reaction rate of the addition polymerization of propylene oxide (PO) was examined to find means for enhancing productivity. The reaction rate of propoxylation became maximum when PO concentration in the re...

Zusammenfassung:Propoxylation is useful for making materials of urethane foam and surfactants in industry. The reaction rate of the addition polymerization of propylene oxide (PO) was examined to find means for enhancing productivity. The reaction rate of propoxylation became maximum when PO concentration in the reaction mass was 33.3wt%. This was confirmed theoretically using the reaction rate equation proposed by Ishii et al.
