Catalysis of vinyl acetate from acetylene synthesis and technology

In the world oxygenated compounds produced in the petrochemical and basic organic synthesis industry are important among them complex vinyl ethers take the leading place. The most important of them is vinyl acetate. Vinyl acetate is the most important monomer in the plastics industry and it is a raw material for the production of polyvinyl acetate polyvinyl alcohol and polyvinyl acetals. Polyvinyl acetate is a polymer with high adhesive properties which is widely used in the production of glues water-soluble latex paints and fabric finishing. At the same time polyvinyl acetate and polyvinyl alcohol is important in medicine and agriculture in the creation of synthetic rubber synthetic fibers biologically active substances modified polymer compounds and other materials with unique properties. Today in the world special attention is paid to research activities aimed at studying the activity of catalysts obtained in different ways for the catalytic acetylation reaction of acetylene.
