Technical field
A kind of tri trimellitate (C
8-10Alcohol) preparation method of ester belongs to the synthesis technical field of softening agent.
Background technology
Tri trimellitate (C
8-10Alcohol) ester is compared with common plasticizer dioctyl phthalate (DOP) (DOP), dibutyl phthalate (DBP) and is had many advantages such as molecular weight is big, flash-point is high, volatility is low, anti-each kind solvent is extracted out, transport property is little.In addition, the tri trimellitate (C of this high ester content, high volume specific resistance
8-10Alcohol) particularly the consistency of PVC material is good with macromolecular material in polymer processing for ester plasticizer, and characteristics such as its processibility, low-temperature performance are similar to monomeric phthalic acid esters again, so have the advantage of monomeric plasticizer and polyester softening agent concurrently.It not only can be used as general primary plasticizer and uses in the product for civilian use, and can use 105 ℃ of level CABLE MATERIALS, 125 ℃ of level CABLE MATERIALS, automobile decoration material, senior spinning in fine finish, pulse low voltage power capacitor impregnation oils, electronics chemical industry and the high-tech war products widely.
Summary of the invention
The purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of tri trimellitate (C
8-10Alcohol) preparation method of ester.Production process of the present invention not only makes product have high ester content and high volume specific resistance, and does not have a large amount of waste water to produce, and environment is not polluted, and reaches the purpose of cleaner production.
Technical scheme of the present invention: by raw material trimellitic acid 1,2-anhydride (being called for short inclined to one side acid anhydride) and corresponding monobasic C
8-10Fatty Alcohol(C12-C14 and C12-C18) prepares by esterification under the effect of catalyzer.Preparation technology's flow process is: trimellitic acid 1,2-anhydride, Fatty Alcohol(C12-C14 and C12-C18) carry out esterification under the effect of catalyzer, make tri trimellitate (C through dealcoholysis, filtration, ion-exchange process again
8-10Alcohol) ester product.Reaction formula is
Inclined to one side acid anhydride of the first step and pure mono-esterification effect
Second step was double esterification reaction
The 3rd step was three esterification:

Reactant trimellitic acid 1,2-anhydride, high-carbon (C in the said process
8-10) alcohol, catalyzer adds esterification device with certain proportioning, temperature stirring and refluxing 5-6 hour, is carried out esterification, trimellitic acid 1,2-anhydride: C at 180-220 ℃
8-10The alcohol mol ratio is 1: 3.5-4.0, catalyst levels is the 0.01%-0.1% of reaction raw materials total mass, the hydrogen bond action of water generation reaction utilization and excessive alcohol is formed binary azeotrope shift out the esterification system fast, reaction is constantly carried out to forward, when the transformation efficiency of the inclined to one side acid anhydride of raw material greater than 99.5% the time, finish esterification, acid number is to 0.05mgKOH/g, in esterification system, slough excessive alcohol with vacuum, vacuum tightness is 0.5-0.1MPa, filtering product, final product carries out adsorption treatment through the multiple-hearth ion exchange column, obtains final tri trimellitate (C
8-10Alcohol) ester product.

Ion exchange resin in the multiple-hearth ion exchange column is that the resin cation (R.C.) by the resin anion(R.A) of macropore and macropore is composited.The softening agent kind that adopts the present invention to produce is: the own ester of tri trimellitate (2-ethyl), tri trimellitate ester in the ninth of the ten Heavenly Stems or tri trimellitate ester in the last of the ten Heavenly stems.The organic alcohol of raw material is C
8-10Fatty Alcohol(C12-C14 and C12-C18), can straight chain also can be the C of side chain
8-10Fatty Alcohol(C12-C14 and C12-C18).Catalyzer is a solid acid, and solid acid can be solid super-strong acid or Bivalent Tin oxide compound.The product of the present invention's preparation can be widely used in 105 ℃ of polyvinyl chloride wire cable materials and other the PVC plastics.
Beneficial effect of the present invention: the present invention adopts advanced no sulfuric acid catalysis new synthetic process, sulfuric acid catalysis that need not be traditional and with solid super-strong acid or Bivalent Tin oxide compound as catalyzer, its catalytic effect is better, and pollution-free.
Tri trimellitate (C
8-10Alcohol) the ester reaction is reversible reaction, need resultant water is constantly shifted out from reactive system to forward for helping reaction, to destroy the balance of esterification, the present invention adopts solvent-free band water law, utilizing the hydrogen bond action of alcohol and water to form binary azeotrope apace will generate water and deviate from reactive system, shorten the reaction times, so this technical process is short, investment is little, production cost is lower.
Because the reactive behavior of three carboxyls is inequalities in the molecular structure of trimellitic acid 1,2-anhydride, acid anhydride is after generating single, double ester partially, can make the reactive behavior, electronic effect of reactive group carboxyl on the phenyl ring, the change that sterically hindered generation is bigger, the reversibility of esterification is increased, some single, double esters that have are in various degree existed; Adopt solid acid catalyst and ion-exchange absorption to handle, can effectively reduce the by product and the refined product of product.
