| 摘要 |
The present invention provides an improved process for converting a diester of polyether polyol, e.g., PTMEA, to the corresponding dihydroxy product, e.g., polytetramethylene ether glycol (PTMEG) continuously in a reaction zone, such as, for example, a reactive distillation system, for achieving virtually complete conversion of PTMEA to PTMEG, and recovery of PTMEG free of unreacted or unconverted PTMEA and alkanol ester by-product. |
