IMPROVED METHOD FOR THE CONTINUOUS PRODUCTION OF ALKYL(METH)ACRYLATES WITH MULTIPLE CATALYST RECYCLING

摘要

The invention relates to an improved method for the continuous production of alkyl(methyl)acrylates by transesterification of methyl(meth)acrylate with alcohols that are heavy in comparison with methanol. A special processing technique makes it possible to obtain new levels of product quality. Very high space-time-overall yields can also be obtained. The invention is characterized by the multiple use of a homogeneous catalyst which thereby reduces the costs of auxiliary agents significantly.
