TL;DR: Data indicate that for EF-RAG to induce emulsification of hydrocarbons in water, the hydrocarbon substrate must contain both aliphatic and cyclic components.
Abstract: The purified extracellular emulsifying factor produced by Arthrobacter RAG-1 (EF-RAG) emulsified light petroleum oil, diesel oil, and a variety of crude oils and gas oils. Although kerosine and gasoline were emulsified poorly by EF-RAG, they were converted into good substrates for emulsification by addition of aromatic compounds, such as 2-methylnaphthalene. Neither aromatic nor aliphatic fractions of crude oil were emulsified by EF-RAG; however, mixtures containing both fractions were emulsified. Pure aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbons were emulsified poorly by EF-RAG. Binary mixtures containing an aliphatic and an aromatic hydrocarbon, however, were excellent substrates for EF-RAG-induced emulsification. Of a variety of alkylcyclohexane and alkylbenzene derivatives tested, only hexyl- or heptylbenzene and octyl- or decylcyclohexane were effectively emulsified by EF-RAG. These data indicate that for EF-RAG to induce emulsification of hydrocarbons in water, the hydrocarbon substrate must contain both aliphatic and cyclic components. With binary mixtures of methylnaphthalene and hexadecane, maximum emulsion was obtained with 25% hexadecane.

TL;DR: In this paper, a method for reacting organic halides with an aromatic hydrocarbon in a system also containing the polyolefins thus forming an alkylation product with both reactants prior to removal of the aluminum chloride catalyst was proposed.
Abstract: In producing synthetic hydrocarbon oils by polymerization of olefins using aluminum halide as the catalyst, organic halides are produced. These are corrosive to metal equipment and are poisonous to certain hydrogenation catalysts. This invention is concerned with reacting such organic halides with an aromatic hydrocarbon in a system also containing the polyolefins thus forming an alkylation product with both reactants prior to removal of the aluminum chloride catalyst.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of zinc (II) salts on the rate of pyrene-photo-initiated polymerization of acrylonitrile leads to an increase in this rate in the order Zn/OCOCH3/2 < ZnCl2 > 0.7.
Abstract: Polymerization of acrylonitrile photoinitiated by naphthalene, anthracene, phenanthrene, and pyrene is accelerated by an admixture of zinc (II) chloride, acetate, or nitrate. The effect of zinc (II) salts on the rate of pyrene-photoinitiated polymerization of acrylonitrile leads to an increase in this rate in the order Zn/OCOCH3/2 < ZnCl2 < Zn/NO3/2. The maximum polymerization rate is achieved at the molar ratio [ZnCl2]/([ZnCl2] + [pyrene]) approximately 0.7. In contrast to the photoinitiated polymerization of acrylonitrile, the methyl methacrylate admixture of zinc (II) chloride exerts a smaller effect on the polymerization rate. In the pyrene-photoinitiated polymerization of styrene an admixture of zinc (II) chloride retards the polymerization rate. Fluorescence of aromatic hydrocarbon in the system acrylonitrile–aromatic hydrocarbon is efficiently quenched by zinc (II) chloride. Stern–Volmer constants determined for pyrene (80 dm3 mole−1), phenanthrene (66 dm3 mole−1), and naphthalene (49 dm3 mole−1) are higher by about 2–3 orders of the Stern–Volmer constants for fluorescence quenching of aromatic hydrocarbons by acrylonitrile in the absence of ZnCl2. The fluorescence of anthracene in acrylonitrile is not quenched by ZnCl2. The acceleration effect of Zn (II) salts on the polymerization of acrylonitrile photoinitiated by aromatic hydrocarbons depends on two factors: an increase in the ratio of the rate constant of the growth and termination reactions, kp/kt, and an increase in the quenching constant of fluorescence of aromatic hydrocarbon, kq, by the complex {acrylonitrile…ZnCl2}. ZnCl2 thus influences both the growth and initiation reactions of the polymerization process.
