Studies for Synthesis of Isobutanol from Carbon Mono-oxide and Hydrogen (III)

Abstract

Because in the second report, we understood that Mo was mast suitablepromoter for Zn-Cr-alkali system, we investigated in this report the effects of an additional quantity of Mo and K₂CO₃, and the effects of various kinds of alkali salts, as the results, we found the facts as follows;
(1) A suitable quantity of addition of Mo and K₂CO₃ are respeetively 3%and 20%for the total weight of Zn and Cr.
when an additional quantity of K2CO₃ in too much, it dosn't almost form the liquid.
(2) As alkali additional agents, K₂CO₃ is most suitable in various K-solts and use of Na₂CO₃ form much water.
