PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF 4,4'-DIAMINO-DICYCLOHEXYLMETHANE WITH A LOW OF TRANS-TRANS ISOMER CONTENT BY THE CATALYTIC HYDROGENATION OF 4 4'-DIAMINO-DIPHENYLMETHANE ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE The present invention is directed to a process for the catalytic hydrogenation of a starting material containing 4,4'-diamino-diphenylmethane (4,4'-MDA) or its mixtures with 2,4'-diamino-diphenylmethane, 2,2'-diamino-diphenylmethane and/or higher ring compounds of the diphenylmethane series to a hydrogenation product having a trans-trans isomer content of 4,4'-diamino-dicyclohexylmethane (4,4'-HMDA) of about 15 to 40 weight percent, based on the diamine content of the hydrogenated product, by continuously hydrogenating in at least one fixed bed reactor at a temperature of about 100 to 190°C and a pressure of about 50 to 350 bar in the presence of a ruthenium catalyst on a catalyst support having a BET surface area of about 70 to 280 m2/g and an average pore diameter dp of about 10 to 320 .ANG., the catalyst being prepared by impregnating the catalyst support to a penetration depth of at least about 50 µm with a soluble ruthenium compound in an amount sufficient to provide a catalyst containing about 0.1 to 5 weight percent ruthenium and subsequently reducing the soluble ruthenium compound to ruthenium.
