The radical-radical reaction mechanisms and dynamics of ground-state atomic oxygen [O(3P)] with the saturated tert-butyl radical (t-C4H9) are investigated using the density functional method and the complete basis set model. Two distinctive reaction pathways are predicted to be in competition:

Applied spectroscopy, 61(1), 96-101 (2007-02-22)
The molar ratio between methanol and isobutylene (MRMI) is very important to the operation of methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) production units. A new on-line near-infrared (NIR) analytical system was integrated for monitoring the MRMI in real time and was

Hydrogenated polyisobutene (HP) is used in topically applied cosmetic/personal care formulations as an emollient that leaves a pleasing skin feel when applied, and rubbed in after application. This effect, although distinguishable to the user, is difficult to define and quantify.

A capillary column HP-AlO2O3/S PLOT(50 m x 0.32 mm i.d. x 8 microm) has been used for the analysis of trace hydrocarbon impurities in high purity isobutene. The results showed that these hydrocarbon impurities could be well separated and with
