[preparation acrylamide]
Preparation is equipped with the 1L glass flask of agitator as the 1st reactor, and Teflon (registered trademark) tubulation of preparing the 20m internal diameter and be 5mm is as second reactor.Add 400g water in first reactor in advance.
To be suspended in according to the wet thallus of above-mentioned cultural method gained in the 0.3mM-NaOH aqueous solution.Speed with 49g/h, 31g/h stirs this suspension liquid and vinyl cyanide respectively, carries out filler simultaneously continuously in the 1st reactor.Speed with 80g/h is taken out reaction solution continuously from the 1st reactor, make the liquid level of the 1st reactor keep certain.Speed with 80g/h is injected the 2nd reactor with the liquid that takes out continuously, and it is further reacted in the 2nd reactor.
It is in 10~20 ℃ the water-bath that the 1st reactor and the 2nd reactor all are immersed in temperature, controlled temperature, and the liquid temperature that makes each inside reactor is 15 ℃.
Regulate the addition of wet thallus with respect to the 0.3mM-NaOH aqueous solution, making the transformation efficiency that is converted into acrylamide at the 1st reactor outlet is more than 90%, and is (below the 100ppm) below the detectability in the acrylonitrile concentration of the 2nd reactor outlet.Obtain the transformation efficiency that is converted into acrylamide by the analytical results of HPLC.
The result is with respect to the 0.3mM-NaOH aqueous solution, and wet thallus is 2.5 weight %, can reach target conversion.
(comparative example 2-1)
Do not carry out the raw material propylene nitrile of ion exchange treatment except that using, carry out identical operations with embodiment 2-1.The result is wet thallus 2.8 weight % for the addition that reaches the required wet thallus of target conversion with respect to the 0.3mM-NaOH aqueous solution.The addition of wet thallus is more than embodiment 2-1, confirms the restraining effect of propenal to reaction.
(comparative example 2-2)
Add propenal in the refining vinyl cyanide of gained in embodiment 2-1, the propenal concentration that transfers in the vinyl cyanide is 2ppm.Use this vinyl cyanide, implement the preparation of acrylamide in the same manner with embodiment 2-1.The result is wet thallus 2.8 weight % for the addition that reaches the required wet thallus of target conversion with respect to the 0.3mM-NaOH aqueous solution.The addition of wet thallus is more than embodiment 2-1, has confirmed the restraining effect of propenal to reaction.
(embodiment 2-2)
(PH=5) removes wet thallus with the reaction solution of activated carbon treatment embodiment 2-1 under acidity, with the 1N-NaOH neutralization, obtains 50 weight % acrylamide solutions again.
In the acrylamide solution of gained, add entry, obtain the acrylamide solution that concentration is 20 weight %.This 20 weight of 500g % acrylamide solution is put into the 1L polythene container, and the limit keeps 18 ℃, and the limit feeds nitrogen, removes the molten oxygen of depositing in the liquid, puts into the insulation block of foamed styrene system then immediately.
Next, respectively with 200 * 10 -64 of mpm (with respect to the mol ratio of acrylamide), 4 '-azo two (4-cyanopentanoic acid sodium), 200 * 10 -6The dimethylaminopropionitrile of mpm, and 80 * 10 -6The ammonium persulphate of mpm is dissolved in less water, presses said sequence and injects 1 liter of polythene container rapidly.In mentioned reagent, feed nitrogen in advance, and before and after injecting and injecting, also in above-mentioned polythene container, inject small amount of nitrogen and prevent to sneak into oxygen.
When injecting reagent, after several minutes inductive phase, rise owing to confirm the polythene container temperature inside, so stop to supply with nitrogen.Kept polythene container about 100 minutes in insulation block with original state, the polythene container temperature inside reaches about 70 ℃.Then, polythene container is taken out from insulation block, dipping is 2 hours in 97 ℃ water, further carries out polyreaction.Next be immersed in the cold water, cooling stops polyreaction.
The aqueous gel of the acrylamide polymer that obtains is thus taken out from polythene container, be divided into fritter, rub with pulverizer.With the aqueous gel of the acrylamide polymer of this rubbing in 100 ℃ hot blast dry 2 hours, further pulverize with high speed rotating cutter pulverizer, obtain dry powdered acrylamide polymer.The dry powdered acrylamide polymer of gained is sieved, separate obtaining 32~42 purpose acrylamide polymers, as the polymer sample that is used for following test.
(embodiment 2-3)
Further to feed the internal diameter that is filled with 0.3 liter of DIAION WA-20 after the washing with the flow of 6 liters/hr be that 40mm, length are that the SUS-304 of 400mm makes in the post for used refining vinyl cyanide in the reaction with embodiment 2-1.Propenal concentration in the refining vinyl cyanide that liquid obtains after by pillar is 0.4ppm.
Use this vinyl cyanide, operate in the same manner with embodiment 2-1 and embodiment 2-2, obtain 20 weight % acrylamide solutions, further this acrylamide solution of polymerization obtains polymer sample.
