Hydrolysis of Oil-Dispersed Soaps in Presence of Carbon Dioxide

Hydrolyis of Oil-Dispersed Amine Salts

“…The term hydrolysis is a specialized case of the viously reported for inorganic cation salts (6). more generalized metathetical process of acid disThe methylamine salt lost 3.0% of the initial salt placement and, if contained in a single phase, is concentration to an oil/water emulsion with the the result of the competitive reaction between the aqueous phase.…”

“…However, the existence of micellar sodium HO -C -C -OH K, = 6.5 x 10-2 carboxylates and high molecular weight amine hydrochlorides in organic liquid media have 0 0 been reported (12,19,24).

“…It is prepared ylates will precipitate from the organic phase commercially by the sulfonation at 27"C of at high relative humidities and in the presence dinon)lnaphthalene, a mixture of isomers obof carbon dioxide, leading to a complete loss tained by twice alkylating naphthalene with a of rust inhibiting potential. Baker and Singleterry branched olefinic propylene trimer in a Freidel- (6) have investigated the hydrolytic stability of the Crafts reaction. The neutral equivalent of the acid alkaline and alkaline earth phenylstearate salts is 502.9 (thuoretical 460.7).…”
