The cumene process (cumene-phenol process, Hock process) is an industrial process for synthesizing phenol and acetone from benzene and propylene. The...

chemicals, primarily phenol and acetone (known as the cumene process). Commercial production of cumene is by Friedel–Crafts alkylation of benzene with propylene...

cumene: C 6H 5(CH 3) 2CH + O2 → C 6H 5(CH 3) 2COOH Dicumyl peroxide is a side product. Cumene hydroperoxide is an intermediate in the cumene process for...

but the cumene process is the dominant technology. Accounting for 95% of production (2003) is the cumene process, also called Hock process. It involves...

reagents in major commercial processes. In the cumene process, acetone and phenol are produced by decomposition of cumene hydroperoxide (Me = methyl):...

styrene as a monomer cumene – isopropylbenzene; a feedstock in the cumene process phenol – hydroxybenzene; often made by the cumene process acetone – dimethyl...

worldwide. Propene and benzene are converted to acetone and phenol via the cumene process. Propene is also used to produce isopropyl alcohol (propan-2-ol), acrylonitrile...

oxidation of harmful chemical compounds in wastewater streams or of cumene in the cumene process. Also in the treatment of waste water trickle bed reactors are...

by-product of the cumene process. In this procedure, cumene is converted to its radical, through a reaction with oxygen. Normally these cumene radicals are...
