Vinyl Acetate from ethylene, acetic acid and oxygen Industrial Plant Simulation

چکیده
Vinyl acetate is a colorless, flammable liquid that also has a characteristic smell that can quickly become irritating. This monomer is used principally in the production of polyvinyl acetate (PVAc) and other vinyl acetate co-polymers. Polyvinyl acetate is a precursor of polyvinilyc alcohol and polyvinyl acetate resins (PVA). Vinyl acetate is also copolymerized as a minor raw material for vinyl chloride and ethylene to form commercial polymers and acrylic fibers.

Kinetics of ethylene combustion in the synthesis of vinyl acetate over a Pd/SiO2 catalyst
The kinetic parameters of ethylene combustion in the presence of acetic acid, i.e., during the synthesis of vinyl acetate and in the absence of acetic acid, have been measured in the temperature range 413–453 K over Pd supported on a high surface area SiO2 (600 m 2/g) at pressures ranging from 5.0 to 15.0 kPa of C2H4 and 1.0 to 10.0 kPa of O2. CO2 formation as a function of the partial pressure...
متن کاملAtomic-scale assembly of a heterogeneous catalytic site.
The distance between surface Pd atoms has been shown to control the catalytic formation of vinyl acetate from ethylene and acetic acid by AuPd catalysts. Here, we use the bulk alloy's thermodynamic properties, as well as the surface lattice spacing of a AuPd(100) alloy single-crystal model catalyst to control and optimize the concentration of the active site (Pd atom pairs at a specific Pd-Pd d...
متن کاملAging Studies of Filled and Unfilled VCE
VCE is an ethylene, vinyl acetate, vinyl alcohol elastomer used to bind high volumes of microparticles. Surveillance data for this material is both scarce and scattered, complicating the assessment of any aging trends in systems. In addition, most of the initial surveillance efforts focused on mechanical properties such as hardness and tensile strength, and chemical information is therefore lac...
متن کاملThe Production of Vinyl Acetate Monomer as a Co-Product from the Non-Catalytic Cracking of Soybean Oil
Valuable chemical by-products can increase the economic viability of renewable transportation fuel facilities while increasing the sustainability of the chemical and associated industries. A study was performed to demonstrate that commercial quality chemical products could be produced using the non-catalytic cracking of crop oils. Using this decomposition technique generates a significant conce...
متن کاملRigorous Modeling of a High Pressure Ethylene-vinyl Acetate (eva) Copolymerization Autoclave Reactor
Polyethylene (PE) is one of the most widely used polymers in chemical industry. In all the PE processes, high-pressure autoclave process is generally considered as the most profitable segment of the polyethylene business worldwide in recent years. Depending on different grades of the product, reactor zone temperatures in this autoclave process can be in the range 150-230°C and pressure in the r...
