Method for separating an esterification catalyst

Process for removal of the esterification catalyst by separation from a crude plasticizer ester obtained by reacting a dicarboxylic acid with C8-C13 alcohols, by treating the crude ester with an aqueous alkali solution in the range from 10 to 100° C. and then separating the aqueous alkaline phase co...

Zusammenfassung:Process for removal of the esterification catalyst by separation from a crude plasticizer ester obtained by reacting a dicarboxylic acid with C8-C13 alcohols, by treating the crude ester with an aqueous alkali solution in the range from 10 to 100° C. and then separating the aqueous alkaline phase comprising the hydrolyzed esterification catalyst by gravitational phase separation, by treating the crude ester, prior to or during the phase separation, with a salt of a di- or polyvalent metal, or with a mixture of these salts.
