Abstract

Abstract Polyamines are prepared by first reacting a polyoxyalkylene polyol having one to eight active hydrogen sites with an epihalohydrin. The resulting polyether is, then, reacted with an amine to replace the chlorine atoms with amine functions. The polyamines hereof are useful as intermediates for preparing cationic polyelectrolytes, such as drainage aids and the like.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 70 words
A process for the preparation of a polyamine comprising: (a) reacting propylene oxide, a butylene oxide or mixtures thereof with a hydroxyl compound having from one to eight hydroxyl groups, (b) reacting the oxyalkylated hydroxyl compound of (a) with an epihalohydrin, (c) reacting the product of (b) with a molar excess of amine, and wherein there is substantially no dioxane formation when reacting the epihalohydrin with the oxyalkylated hydroxyl compound.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 70 words
A process for the preparation of a polyamine comprising: (a) reacting propylene oxide, a butylene oxide or mixtures thereof with a hydroxyl compound having from one to eight hydroxyl groups, (b) reacting the oxyalkylated hydroxyl compound of (a) with an epihalohydrin, (c) reacting the product of (b) with a molar excess of amine, and wherein there is substantially no dioxane formation when reacting the epihalohydrin with the oxyalkylated hydroxyl compound.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 12 words
