Residue curve maps are a powerful tool for the preliminary design of Reactive Distillation (RD). In this study, residue curve maps of the n-butyl acetate synthesis reaction were calculated based on the Langmuir–Hinshelwood–Hougen–Watson kinetic and UNIQUAC models to calculate the physical properties of the system. The results showed that the unstable node branch emerged from the n-butyl ace...

DGBA 1 Diethylene Glycol n-Butyl Ether Acetate (CAS# 124-17-4) (Synonyms: Butyl carbitol acetate; Butyl diglycol acetate; 2-(2-Butoxyethoxy)ethanol acetate; 2(2-Butoxyethoxy)ethyl acetate; Acetic acid 2-(2-butoxyethoxy)ethyl ester; Butoxyethoxyethyl acetate; Butyl carbitol acetate; Butyl diethylene glycol acetate; Diethyleneglycol monobutyl ether acetate; Diglycol monobutyl ether acetate; Ektas...

The effects of combined exposure to n-butyl alcohol and n-butyl acetate on rotarod performance and hot plate behaviour in rats and respiratory rate in mice were investigated in the condition of an acute inhalation experiment. Rotarod performance and hot-plate behaviour were tested in rats exposed to various concentrations of n-butyl alcohol, n-butyl acetate and their mixture consisting of 50 Vo...

Abstract To separate the azeotropic mixture n-butyl acetate and n-butanol by liquid–liquid extraction, three ionic liquids (ILs) 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium dihydrogen phosphate ([Emim]H2PO4), 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium ([Bmim]H2PO4) 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium ([Hmim]H2PO4) were adopted as extractants. The equilibrium data for ternary mixtures (n-butyl acetate + n-butanol + [Emim]H2PO4/[Bmim]...

Exposure to low levels of chemicals indoors is often to a mixture of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). It is of interest to determine if the symptomatic and sensory responses can be attributed to a single chemical or to a mixture of chemicals. To determine if sensory or symptomatic responses differ with exposure to single or mixed VOCs, 100 female subjects participated in a 6-hr exposure study...

Incremental reactivity estimates for many high molecular weight organic compounds used in consumer products are viewed as uncertain because of limited data on their reaction mechanisms and products. This study performs a systematic uncertainty analysis of the calculated incremental reactivities of two such compounds: n-butyl acetate and 2-butoxy ethanol. 2-butoxy ethanol is a relatively well-st...

Catalytic oxidation is a feasible and affordable technology for solvent emission abatement. However, finding optimal operation conditions is important, since they are strongly dependent on the application area of VOC incineration. This paper presents the results of the laboratory experiments concerning four most central parameters, that is, effects of concentration, gas hourly space velocity (G...

BACKGROUND Inhalation challenges are used for diagnosing occupational asthma (OA). The initial methodology consisted of a "realistic" exposure without monitoring nor controlling exposure. Our aim was to design an equipment, called the GenaSIC, that allows the generation of various agents regardless of the formulation and to assess the feasibility of its use in patients investigated for OA. RE...

Kinetics of the neutral hydrolysis of 4-nitrophenyl chloroacetate was investigated in water and in the presence of 1 mol % of ethanol, propanol, and -butyl n alcohol without sonication and under ultrasound at 25 kHz. Similarly, the kinetics of the acid-catalysed hydrolysis of -propyl n acetate in ethanol–water binary solutions was investigated without sonication and under ultrasound at 22 kHz. ...
