Patent ID: 11174269

Abstract:
An object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing 1,2,4,5-cyclohexanetetracarboxylic dianhydride, which is capable of stably achieving a high dehydration rate. The method for producing 1,2,4,5-cyclohexanetetracarboxylic dianhydride of the present invention is a method for producing 1,2,4,5-cyclohexanetetracarboxylic dianhydride by subjecting 1,2,4,5-cyclohexanetetracarboxylic acid to a dehydration reaction in a slurry state in the presence of a dehydrating agent, wherein an average particle size of the 1,2,4,5-cyclohexanetetracarboxylic acid is 20 μm or more.
