In line with its ongoing development drive in the field of catalysis, Arkema has launched Oxynitrox S100, a new organic oxidisation catalyst produced industrially by a patented process.
This latest oxidisation catalyst makes its own contribution to the demands of modern chemistry, which makes environmental protection a priority. The Oxynitrox S100 catalyst offers countless prospects in fine chemicals, in particular with its capacity to steer the selective oxidisation of primary alcohols into aldehydes. It can also lead in a fully controlled mode to the formation of corresponding acids. Additionally, secondary alcohols can be converted into ketones.
The applications of this product primarily concern the pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, fragrance, food and electronics markets. This product can also play a role in the modification of cellulose and its derivatives.
