| abstract |
The present invention relates to a process for preparing a compound having at least one ether group, at least one ester group, at least one amino group or at least one urethane group by a1) preparing 1,2-propanediol by means of a process wherein glycerol is hydrogenated in the presence of a catalyst, glycerol being reacted to at most 95% and a 1,2-propanediol phase obtained and a2) reacting the 1,2-propanediol phase with a compound having at least one active hydrogen atom, at least one epoxide group, at least one ester group or at least one isocyanate group. The present invention relates to the compounds which can be obtained using this process and the chemical products, emulsions, cosmetic formulations, plastics material compositions and drilling compositions prepared using the compound and the use and preparations thereof. |
