Methods of mercaptanizing olefinic hydrocarbons and compositions produced therefrom

摘要

The present invention discloses processes for forming polythiol compositions from olefinic hydrocarbons such as cyclooctadiene, cyclododecatriene, and trivinylcyclohexane. The polythiol compositions produced from these processes, including the sulfur-containing compounds of these compositions, also are described.

主权项

1. A polythiol composition comprising sulfur-containing compounds, wherein the sulfur-containing compounds of the polythiol composition comprise:
an average of from 0.3 to 6 wt. % sulfide sulfur; from 30 to 85 wt. % tri(2-mercaptoethyl)cyclohexane; and from 10 to 60 wt. % di(2-mercaptoethyl)vinylcyclohexane.
