PROCESS FOR PREPARING ADSORBENT OF PETROLEUM AND PETROLEUM PRODUCTS, AND ADSORBENT OF PETROLEUM AND PETROLEUM PRODUCTS Russian patent published in 1996 - IPC

FIELD: processes for manufacturing materials for treatment of liquid contaminations such as petroleum and petroleum products. SUBSTANCE: process comprises applying active compound onto porous and/or fibrous substrate mode of organic material. The units of molecules of said material contain one or more reactive functional groups. The active compound includes higher carboxylic acids R₁-COOH, higher alcohols R₂-OH, higher alkyl halides R₃, higher α-olefins R₄-CH=CH₂ and/or mixtures thereof wherein R₁ is C₁₀-C₂₅-alkyl; R₉ is C₈-C₂₀- alkyl or polyhalogen alkyl; R₃ and R₄ are C₈-C₂₀-alkyl under conditions that allow for chemical bonding of said radicals with the units of molecules of the adsorbent substrate material. Chemical bonding of R₁, R₂ and R₃ is effected of 95-120 C on the presence of organic solvent capable of forming azeotropic misture with water. Chemical bonding of R₃ is also effected in the presence of alkali. Chemical bonding of R₄ is effected in the presence of toluene sulfonic acid. The absorbent contains ether groupings -OOCR₁ or OR wherein R₁ is C₁₀-C₂₅- alkyl, R is C₈-C₂₀-alkyl or polyhalogen alkyl. EFFECT: more efficient preparation process. 5 cl
