Formulations/Preparations: •...purified ethylene carbonate for dielectric constant and dipole moment studies by fractional distillation at reduced pressure and fractional crystallizations from dry ethyl ether.
•...studied a process for the continuous purification of cyclic ethylene carbonate by continuous crystallization in a column with thermal gradient; the product was 99.93%.
•...purified a commercially available ethylene carbonate by the zone refining method...
•...purified ethylene carbonate...by a sequence of fractional freezings under a nitrogen atmosphere until a constant maximum freezing point was obtained.
•...purified commercial ethylene carbonate...by distilling several times at 5 torr.
