MANUFACTURING POLYMERS OF THIOPHENE, BENZOTHIOPHENE, AND THEIR ALKYLATED DERIVATIVES

摘要

The present invention relates to apparatuses and processes for manufacturing polymers of thiophene, benzothiophene, and their alkylated derivatives. A process for manufacturing polymers that includes isolating a sulfur-containing heterocyclic hydrocarbon from cracked naphtha and reacting the sulfur-containing heterocyclic hydrocarbon with a super acid to produce a polymer.
