A method for preparing 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol is provided. The method allows hydrogen gas fed into a reaction tank to be uniformly dispersed in a reaction solution by a gas-introducing mixer having air-extracting, air-exhausting and mixing functions. Accordingly, the reaction solution has a high concentration of dissolved hydrogen gas so that the reaction time of hydrogenation can be reduced to as short as possible. Furthermore, the method uses a hydrogenation catalyst having many advantages such as high activity and low cost. The added amount of the hydrogenation catalyst can be reduced under the operation of the gas-introducing mixer.

Provided are a tricyclodecane dimethanol composition which may be usefully applied to the preparation of a high heat resistant polyester by reducing the content of impurities, and a preparation method thereof.

The present disclosure relates to a 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol (CHDM) composition and a purification method of the same. More specifically, it relates to a 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol composition having a high purity due to a low by-product content and a high trans isomer ratio, and a method for purifying the same.

Provided are a noble metal-transition metal complex catalyst supported on a carbon-coated silica-alumina support and a preparation method therefor, the catalyst being capable of obtaining a fast reaction rate and catalyst stability, as compared to a conventional catalyst, when cyclohexane dimethanol (CHDM) production is carried out by a cyclohexane dicarboxylic acid (CHDA) hydrogenation reaction in an aqueous solution by using a carbon-coated supported catalyst.

Provided are a tricyclodecane dimethanol composition which may be suitably used in preparing a polyester resin exhibiting excellent solvent resistance and chemical resistance when forming a coating film and having excellent solubility in organic solvents or water, and a preparation method thereof.

Provided are a tricyclodecane dimethanol composition, in which a ratio of structural isomers is controlled, and a preparation method thereof.
