Description: 
Synthesis and production methods of interest to the Institute 
pertain to the synthesis of phenylene diacetic acids and their amines, 
extraction of isobutylene from butane-butylene mixtures, production of 
acetaldehyde from ethylene, suitability of low octane gasolines for pro- 
ducing ethylene and propylene, production of ethanol by direct hydration, 
synthesis of primary fatty aromatic alcohols using tri-isobutyl aluminum, 
synthesis of higher olefins, oxidation of hydrocarbons in the liquid phase, 
synthesis of p-nitroacetophenone, production of primary camphenyl alcohol, 
manufacture of synthetic glycerine, use of benzene as a solvent in the 
Friedel-Crafts reaction, and reaction of hydrogen peroxide with allyl alcohol 
and acrolein in the presence of tungstic acid. Analytical work has concerned 
the determination of microadmixtures in eee ethylene, determination of 
hydroperoxide compounds in resin, use of cl4 for determination of the 
fractioning effect of gaseous hydrocarbons, volt-amperometric determination 
of phenol in isopropyl benzene, quantitative determination of dimethyl- 
phenylearbinol, and determination of propylene admixtures in ethylene and 
ethane-ethylene fractions. Other investigations include corrosion studies 
of steels in concentrated acids, and kinetic studies of the physical ad- 
sorption of ethylene from mixtures and of gas adsorption. 
The Institute has a branch in Novokuybyshev and publishes a Trudy.

Description: 
The Institute was founded in 1958 with the goal of improving methods 
of synthesis and the production technology for polymers and copolymers. 
Recent research has involved plastic-to-metal adhesives, polycondensation at 
the liquid-gas interface, gamma-radiation polymerization, and polyamide 
chemistry.
