The solubility data of 2,4-dinitrotoluent (2,4-DNT) in mixed solvents of water and nitric acid with nitric acid mass fraction vary from 0.1 to 0.5 were determined at 283.15-323.15K by the equilibrium method. It indicates that the solubility increases with the increase of temperature and decreases with the decrease of mass fraction of nitric acid. The experimental data were correlated with λ-h equation, Apelblat equation and C.L.Yaws equation, average relative deviations of which between the calculated values and the experimental values of 25 data points in 5 systems were 3.666%, 2.737% and 3.121% respectively. The results show that three equations could well correlate the solubility data of 2,4-DNT in above electrolyte systems and the accuracy of the correlation can satisfy the engineering requirement.
With Raney nickel catalyst and aniline solvent, the reaction kinetics of catalytic hydrogenation of isophthalonitrile (IPN) for meta-xylenediamine (MXDA) preparation is studied in this paper. The experiment is conducted in a 1L büchiglas high-pressure hydrogenation reactor under the condition of the reaction temperature (100°C) and the reaction pressure (35 bar). The results shows that the kinetics equation proposed in this paper can be used to predict the response speed of IPN accurately.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
