Ukuguqulwa kwe-propylene ku-propelene oxide kuyinqubo eyinkimbinkimbi edinga ukuqonda okuphelele kwezindlela zokuphendula amakhemikhali ezibandakanyekile. Le ndatshana idlulela ezindleleni ezahlukahlukene kanye nemibandela yokuphendula edingekayo ukuze i-sypentes ye-oxide ye-oxide kusuka ku-propylene.

Indlela evame kakhulu yokukhiqizwa kwe-oxide ye-oxide ngokusebenzisa i-oxidation ye-propeecular umoya-mpilo phambi kwe-catalyst. Indlela yokuphendula ifaka ukwakheka kwama-radicals we-peroxy, asabele nge-propelene ukukhiqiza i-propelene oxide. I-Catalyst idlala indima ebalulekile kulokhu kusabela, ngoba yehlisa amandla okusebenza adingekayo ekwakhiweni kwemisebe ye-peroxy, ngaleyo ndlela kuthuthukise isilinganiso sokuphendula.

Enye yezinkomba ezisetshenziswa kabanzi zalokhu kuphendula i-Silver Axide, elayishwa ezintweni ezisekelayo ezinjenge-Alpha-Alumina. Indwangu yokusekela ihlinzeka indawo ephezulu ye-catalyst, iqinisekisa ukuthintana okusebenzayo phakathi kwabaphendulwayo kanye ne-catalyst. Ukusetshenziswa kwama-catalysts wesiliva oxide kutholakele kutholakale kutholakale izivuno eziphezulu ze-propelene oxide.

I-oxidation ye-propenene usebenzisa inqubo ye-peroxide kungenye indlela engaqashwa ukukhiqizwa kwe-oxylene oxide. Kule nqubo, i-propylene yenziwa nge-peroxide ye-organic phambi kwe-catalyst. I-peroxide isabela nge-propelene yokwakha i-radical ephakathi, lapho-ke ibola ukuveza i-oxylene oxide notshwala. Le ndlela inenzuzo yokuhlinzeka ngokukhetha okuphezulu kwe-propelene oxide ngokuqhathaniswa nenqubo ye-oxidation.

Ukukhetha kwezimo zokuphendula kubalulekile futhi ekunqumeni isivuno kanye nobumsulwa bomkhiqizo we-propylene oxide. Izinga lokushisa, ingcindezi, isikhathi sokuhlala, kanye nesilinganiso se-mole yama-acractivant yimanye amapharamitha abalulekile adinga ukulungiswa. Kubonile ukuthi ukukhulisa izinga lokushisa nesikhathi sokuhlala kuphumela ekukhuphukeni kwesivuno se-oxide. Kodwa-ke, amazinga okushisa aphezulu angaholela ekwakhekeni kwemikhiqizo eyenziwe ngemikhiqizo, anciphise ubumsulwa bomkhiqizo owuthandayo. Ngakho-ke, ukulinganisela phakathi kwezivuno eziphakeme nobumsulwa obuphezulu kufanele buhlangane.

Ekuphetheni, ukuhlanganiswa kwe-propylene oxide kusuka ku-propene kungenziwa ngezindlela ezahlukahlukene, kufaka phakathi i-oxidation ngezinqubo ze-moleculate oksijini noma izinqubo ze-peroxide. Ukukhethwa kwezimo ze-catalyst kanye nezimo zokuphendula zidlala indima ebalulekile ekunqumeni isivuno kanye nobumsulwa bomkhiqizo wokugcina. Ukuqonda ngokuphelele izindlela zokuphendula ezibandakanyekile kubalulekile ekwakheni inqubo kanye nokuthola i-axide ephezulu ye-oxide.
