Process for the production of low color 2,3-epoxypropyl trialkylammonium halide

摘要: An aqueous solution of 2,3-Epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride having reduced color and method preparation are disclosed. is treated with sodium hypochlorite to reduce its color. 2-3-Epoxypropyltrimethylammonium can be prepared via reaction trimethylamine epichlorohydrin. If desired, an aprotic solvent used. formed in the resultant slurry, must then isolated known methods, such as evaporation, extraction, centrifugation, etc. depending upon other constituents slurry residual epichlorohydrin removed. The final product effective amount hypochlorite. obtained used for, for example, color-sensitive applications produce cationic starch use paper manufacture.
