There are five commercial processes that oligomerize ethylene to 1-octene.
2.
Subsequent cracking of 1-methoxyoctane gives 1-octene and methanol for recycle.
3.
Although it occurs in several natural oils, it is produced commercially by hydroformylation of 1-octene.
4.
Four of these processes produce 1-octene as a part of a wide distribution of alpha-olefins.
5.
Through Proprietary technology 1-hexene, 1-octene and 1-pentene are recovered from the oil stream.
6.
Sasol is currently in the engineering phase of a new 1-octene technology based on selective tetramerisation of ethylene.
7.
The commercial route to produce 1-octene based on butadiene as developed by Dow Chemical came on stream in Tarragona in 2008.
8.
The lower carbon numbers, 1-butene, 1-hexene and 1-octene are overwhelmingly used as comonomer in production of polyethylene.
9.
The simplest isomer is 1-octene, an alpha-olefin used primarily as a co-monomer in production of polyethylene via the solution polymerization process.
10.
Another significant use of 1-octene is for production of linear aldehyde via the oxo synthesis ( hydroformylation ) to give the C9 aldehyde ( nonanal ).
