1. It was the only Cumene -Phenol plant built in Australia. 2. Some cumene -hydroperoxide an organic peroxide was also sold. 3. Acetone is prepared by air-oxidation of cumene . 4. Some formulations include solvents such as xylenes and cumene . 5. It is a co-product formed in a variation of the cumene process. 6. Products of decomposition of cumene hydroperoxide are methylstyrene, acetophenone, and cumyl alcohol. 7. In 2003, nearly 7 million tonnes of phenol was produced by the cumene process. 8. Chlorobenzene was once the precursor to phenol, which is now made by oxidation of cumene . 9. This latter cumene converts into cumene radical and feeds back into subsequent chain formations of cumene hydroperoxides. 10. This latter cumene converts into cumene radical and feeds back into subsequent chain formations of cumene hydroperoxides.
