A polyvalent glycidyl compound is produced from a compound having one or more 2-alkenyl ether groups and two or more 2-alkenyl groups using a hydrogen peroxide aqueous solution as an oxidizing agent to oxidize the 2-alkenyl ether groups and the 2-alkenyl groups. A 2-alkenyl ether compound having two or more (un)substituted 2-alkenyl groups and one or more (un)substituted 2-alkenyl ether groups is oxidized using a hydrogen peroxide aqueous solution as an oxidizing agent in the presence of a tungsten compound and a quaternary ammonium salt as catalysts and of phosphoric acid as a co-catalyst, while controlling the pH of the reaction solution to 1.0-4.0 using an acid other than phosphoric acid. During the oxidation, the step of adding the hydrogen peroxide aqueous solution to the reaction solution and the step of adding the acid other than phosphoric acid thereto are alternately repeated at intervals two or more times.

There is provided a manufacturing assembly for the production of an alkylene oxide and a stream of glycol ethers. The manufacturing assembly produces the alkylene oxide and stream of glycol without the use of equipment for separating substantially all of the alkyl alcohol from the alkylene oxide product stream. Thus, the use of additional pieces of equipment can be avoided, or the equipment required to effectuate any required further separation and/or purification may be smaller and/or cheaper to purchase and/or operate.

The curing agent for coatings includes at least 1,3,5-triglycidyl benzenetricarboxylate and 1,3,5-diglycidyl benzenetricarboxylate. To produce the curing agent, 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid reacts with a base and chloropropene to produce triallyl benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate. Then the triallyl benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate reacts with a surfactant, hydrogen peroxide and a catalyst to produce 1,3,5-triglycidyl benzenetricarboxylate and/or 1,3,5-diglycidyl benzenetricarboxylate. The 1,3,5-triglycidyl benzenetricarboxylate can be applied to coatings as a curing agent.

The present disclosure is directed to processing for preparing crystalline pure-silica and heteroatom-substituted LTA frameworks in fluoride media using a simple organic structure-directing agent (OSDA), having a structure of Formula (I): ##STR00001##
where substituents R.sup.1 to R.sup.9 are defined herein. Aluminosilicate LTA is an active catalyst for the methanol to olefins reaction with higher product selectivities to butenes as well as C5 and C6 products than the commercialized catalysts. Titanosilicate LTA is an active catalyst for the epoxidation of allyl alcohol using aqueous H.sub.2O.sub.2.
