Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention provides a method for producing polyoxyalkylene alkyl ether carboxylic acid and a salt thereof, including supplying polyoxyalkylene alkyl ether, oxygen, and water to a continuous stirred tank reactor containing a noble metal catalyst to oxidize the polyoxyalkylene alkyl ether with oxygen, in which the molar ratio of the salt of polyoxyalkylene alkyl ether carboxylic acid to the polyoxyalkylene alkyl ether in the continuous stirred tank reactor is controlled to 0.33 to 49.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for producing a polyoxyalkylene alkyl ether carboxylic acid and a salt thereof, comprising continuously supplying polyoxyalkylene alkyl ether, oxygen, and water to a continuous stirred tank reactor in the presence of a noble metal catalyst in a reaction system that conducts both continuous supply of the materials into the stirred tank and continuous extraction of a product from the stirred tank to control the reaction in order to have the molar…
