Filed:

Jun 27, 2003

Appl. No.:

10/607616

Inventors:

James A. Nowak - Naperville IL
Thomas A. Zillner - Lake Bluff IL

Assignee:

The C.P. Hall Company - Chicago IL

International Classification:

C07D30118

US Classification:

549527, 549528, 549523

Abstract:

A method of epoxidizing an unsaturated compound having a carbon-to-carbon double bond to form an oxirane ring across the double bond comprising adding to said unsaturated compound an oxidizing agent selected from hydrogen peroxide, acetaldehyde monoperacetate, an organic hydroperoxide, or a combination thereof, to form a reactant mixture; and forming the reactant mixture in a film against a wall of the thin-film reactor that is at a temperature sufficient for reaction of the oxidizing agent with the unsaturated compound to form an oxirane ring across a double bond of the unsaturated compound.

The C.P. Hall Company - Chicago IL

International Classification:

C07D30116

US Classification:

549526, 549525, 549527

Abstract:

A method of epoxidizing an unsaturated compound having a carbon-to-carbon double bond to form an oxirane ring across the double bond comprising adding to said unsaturated compound (a) an organic acid capable of being oxidized to form a peracid; (b) an oxidizing agent selected from hydrogen peroxide or acetaldehyde monoperacetate, or a combination thereof; and (c) with or without an acid catalyst selected from a mineral acid or styrene sulfonic acid, or a combination thereof to form a reactant mixture; and forming the reactant mixture in a film against a wall of a thin-film reactor that is at a temperature sufficient to form a peracid from the organic acid, and contacting the film of reactant mixture against the film reactor wall for a time sufficient for reaction of a portion of the peracid with the unsaturated compound to form an oxirane ring across a double bond of the unsaturated compound. In another embodiment, preformed peracid and unsaturated compound are added directly to the thin-film reactor.

Inventors:

James Walter Nowak - Elk Grove Village IL, US

Assignee:

INTERNATIONAL PAPER COMPANY - Memphis TN

International Classification:

B65D 5/52
B65D 21/02
B65D 5/54

US Classification:

206759, 206774, 229122, 229123, 22912001, 229240

Abstract:

A shipping container convertible into a display container comprising a top wall, a bottom wall, and opposed side walls foldably joined to the top and bottom walls to form an interior space. A tear away window panel is formed on one of the side walls. The tear away window panel includes width and height defined by a perforated line of weakness extending across the width and on a portion of height of the side walls. A displayable insert tray is configured to be disposed into the interior space of the container to receive products and concealed therein when the container is in a shipping position. The displayable insert tray includes a bottom panel and at least one feeder ledge foldably joined to the bottom panel wherein upon removing the tear away window panel and pulling away the feeder ledge, the container is converted to a display position to expose the products.

Assignee:

Nalco Chemical Company - Naperville IL

International Classification:

B65B 104

US Classification:

141313

Abstract:

A fitting is provided for attachment to a flexible bag. The combined flexible bag and fitting may be inserted into a container for filling the flexible bag with a material, such as a chemical requiring transport, and ultimately draining of the material following delivery thereof. The fitting allows for bottom filling of the container and elimination of head space as well as draining of the material without interference from the bag.
