Process for reacting alkylene oxides with hydroxyl-containing initiator compounds

Polyether hydroxyl-containing compounds are prepared by reacting a monoepoxy-containing compound such as propylene oxide with a compound containing one or more OH and/or SH groups such as a low molecular weight adduct of glycerine and propylene oxide in the presence of a solid calcium naphthenate ca...

More Information
Summary:Polyether hydroxyl-containing compounds are prepared by reacting a monoepoxy-containing compound such as propylene oxide with a compound containing one or more OH and/or SH groups such as a low molecular weight adduct of glycerine and propylene oxide in the presence of a solid calcium naphthenate catalyst. The solid form of the catalyst is more efficient than the liquid form.
