The invention relates to bis(aniline) compounds containing multiple arylethynyl, alkylethynyl, ethynyl groups or their combinations, processes of making such compounds and materials comprising such compounds. Such, bis(aniline) compounds preferably comprise multiple phenylethynyl (PE) groups, i.e. 2-4 PE moieties. Such compounds are useful monomers for the preparation of polyimides, polyamides and poly(amide-imides) whose post-fabrication crosslinking chemistry (i.e. reaction temperature) can be controlled by the number of PE per repeat unit as well as finding utility in thermosetting matrix resins, 3D printable resins, and as high-carbon-content precursors to carbon-carbon composites.

The invention relates to a method for preparing a toluylene diamine mixture which, along with toluylene diamine (TDA), also contains a high-boiling fraction, such as the high-boiling fraction which is accumulated as a sump flow in the distillative preparation of product mixtures obtained by hydrogenating dinitrotoluene. The method has a step (A), namely preparing a TDA mixture containing, based on the total mass of the mixture, (1) TDA in a range of 5 mass % to 80 mass % and (2) a high-boiling fraction in a range of 20 mass % to 95 mass %; a step (B), namely distilling TDA off from the TDA mixture, thereby obtaining a liquid TDA-depleted method product, containing (1) TDA in a range of 0 mass % to 38 mass % and (2) a high-boiling fraction in a range of 62 mass % to 100 mass %; and a step (C) namely mixing water into the TDA-depleted method product in a mixing chamber, thereby obtaining a mixture mixed with water, wherein the temperature and quantity of the water to be mixed into the mixture and the temperature and quantity of the TDA-depleted method product are matched such that the resulting temperature of the mixture mixed with water ranges from 110° C. to 250° C., and the mixture mixed with water is provided as a single phase. The mixing chamber is supplied with a pressure which is greater than or equal to the water vapor partial pressure at the resulting temperature.

The present disclosure relates to a multi-sandwich composite catalyst and a preparation method and application thereof. The present disclosure provides a preparation method of a multi-sandwich composite catalyst, comprises the following steps: sequentially depositing a first layer oxide, a first active metal, an oxide interlayer, a second active metal and a surface oxide on a template, and sequentially performing calcination and reduction, thereby obtaining a multi-sandwich composite catalyst; wherein the first active metal and the second active metal are different kinds of active metals. In the present disclosure, a multi-sandwich structure is formed by depositing the oxides and active metals alternately, so that the position and spacing distance of the active centers can be precisely controlled. The multi-sandwich composite catalyst prepared by the method provided described herein has a higher conversion than that of a catalyst without an interlayer when used for the catalytic reaction.

A method for simultaneously preparing an iron oxide red pigment and an aromatic amine is provided. In the method, an aromatic nitro compound and ferrous iron are first used to prepare an iron oxide red seed crystal under the action of a catalyst, and then iron powder is used to reduce the aromatic nitro compound and generate iron oxide in situ which grows into iron oxide red with pigment performance on the seed crystal. The method provides a clean and economical way for the reduction of an aromatic nitro compound (especially those in which there are other easily-reduced substituents on an aromatic ring) to prepare an aromatic amine.
