Abstract
Hydrophobically modified Si-containing polyamines are useful for treating scale in industrial process streams. Preferred hydrophobically modified Si-containing polyamines are particularly useful for treating aluminosilicate scale in difficult-to-treat industrial process streams, such as in the Bayer alumina process streams, nuclear waste streams and kraft paper mill effluent streams.
Claims9
A composition comprising a polymeric reaction product of:
- a polyamine,
- a first nitrogen-reactive compound, and
- a second nitrogen-reactive compound;
- wherein:
- the polyamine comprises a (NR42)-J-(NR42) moiety, wherein J is an optionally substituted hydrocarbyl fragment comprising from about 2 to about 40 carbons, and each R4 is independently H, optionally substituted C1-C8 alkyl, or optionally substituted C6-C10 aryl;
- the first nitrogen-reactive compound comprises a —Si(OR)3 group and a nitrogen-reactive group, wherein R is H, optionally substituted C1-C20 alkyl, optionally substituted C6-C12 aryl, optionally substituted C7-C20 aralkyl, optionally substituted C2-C20 alkenyl, Group I metal ion, Group II metal ion, or NR14, wherein each R1 is independently selected from H, optionally substituted C1-C20 alkyl, optionally substituted C6-C12 aryl, optionally substituted C7-C20 aralkyl, and optionally substituted C2-C20 alkenyl;
- and
- at least one of the polyamine and the second nitrogen-reactive compound comprises an optionally substituted hydrocarbyl radical comprising from about 2 to about 40 carbons.
