Linear alpha olefin — Linear Alpha Olefins (LAO) or Normal Alpha Olefins (NAO) are olefins or alkenes with a chemical formula CxH2x, distinguished from other mono olefins with a similar molecular formula by linearity of the hydrocarbon chain and the position of the… … Wikipedia
Olefin metathesis — or transalkylidenation is an organic reaction that entails redistribution of alkylene fragments by the scission of carbon carbon double bonds in olefins (alkenes).[1] Its advantages include the creation of fewer sideproducts and hazardous wastes … Wikipedia
Shell higher olefin process — The Shell higher olefin process is a chemical process for the production of linear alpha olefins via ethene oligomerization and olefin metathesis invented and exploited by Royal Dutch Shell. Industrial Organic Chemistry , Klaus Weissermel, Hans… … Wikipedia
