A kind of method for preparing hydroxypropylated starch through ultrasonic and microwave cooperating effect
Technical field
The invention belongs to the grain processing field.Relate in particular to a kind of method for preparing hydroxypropylated starch through ultrasonic and microwave cooperating effect.
Background technology
Hydroxypropylated starch is a kind of important chemically modified starch, after its modification, because etherification starch replaces the stability height of ehter bond; The hydroxypropyl possess hydrophilic property can weaken the inside HYDROGEN BOND INTENSITY of starch granules structure, makes it be easy to expand; Gelatinization is easy, and it is transparent to stick with paste liquid, good fluidity; A little less than the retrogradation property, stability is high.Hydroxypropyl corn starch all can be used in industries such as food, printing, weaving, printing and dyeing, washing composition, papermaking, medicine, metallurgy, petroleum drillings.In foodstuffs industry, can be used as thickening material, suspension agent and coating etc., be specially adapted to frozen product and ready-to-eat, make food when low-temperature storage, have good water-retentivity as thickening material.In paper industry, can be used as paper internal sizing and top sizing, make printing-ink distinct, even, reduce ink consumption.Can be used as warp size in textile industry, the wear resistance when raising is weaved etc.
The working method of hydroxypropylated starch has dry method, water dispersion and non-water dispersion.Dry process is that starch and propylene oxide directly carry out gas-solid reaction under certain condition.Concrete working method mainly contains alr mode, boiling mode and fashion of extrusion etc.The dry production reaction efficiency is low, and the molecule substitution value of products therefrom is low, heterogeneity, and the product separation purification difficult etc.Water dispersion is present widely used method, but also can not make the high substitution value product, and general molecule substitution value is not more than 0.3.Non-aqueous solvent method is with in starch dispersion and alcohol or the ketone organic solvent, and then with propylene oxide reaction, the sub-substitution value of the best result of products obtained therefrom is below 2.0.Generally speaking, all there is following problem in the various working methods of existing hydroxypropylated starch: reaction efficiency is low, and the molecule substitution value of gained hydroxypropylated starch is low, heterogeneity.
UW is a kind of mechanical wave of in elastic medium, propagating, and has heat effect, mechanical effect and cavitation effect.After UW acts on starch, can make the surface of starch granules form many small holes, the viscosity degradation of starch paste can quicken chemical reaction process.Microwave has inner heat characteristic, can make starch expanded, and chemical reaction is quickened.
Summary of the invention
With the propylene oxide is etherifying agent, and through supersonic method, microwave method synergy, synthetic hydroxypropyl corn starch is not seen any report so far as yet.The object of the invention is in order to solve low, the inhomogenous problem of reaction efficiency molecule substitution value low, the gained hydroxypropylated starch that the various working methods of hydroxypropylated starch all exist, for starch deep processing and application ultrasonic, microwave provide useful reference.
The present invention realizes through following method and technology scheme:
It is 10%~50% milk of starch that starch material (can use Cereals or potato starchs such as W-Gum, glutinous rice starch, wheat starch, green starch, yam starch, tapioca(flour)) is made into concentration by mass ratio; Placing hyperacoustic electric power is that 200W~800W, frequency are the ultrasound reactor of 20kHz~500kHz; Ultrasonication 10min~60min takes out suction filtration then; Oven dry; Again its catalyzer-sodium hydroxide 1.0%~3.0% repression of swelling agent-SODIUM SULPHATE ANHYDROUS 99PCT, 2.0%~7.2% propylene oxide with 0.2%~0.4% is mixed, fully stir, mix, be placed in the microwave reactor at last and react; The power of microwave is 60W-300W, and be 2min~20min action time.Reaction finishes, and the HCL that takes out with 1mol/L is neutralized to pH5.5-6.0, dries to get final product to such an extent that the molecule substitution value is 0.01~2.00 hydroxypropylated starch.
Compare with working method in the past; The invention has the advantages that: the reaction times is short, reaction efficiency is high, the product substitution value is adjustable in a big way, quality product stable homogeneous, performance are good, can use in many industries such as food, printing, weaving, printing and dyeing, washing composition, papermaking, medicine, metallurgy, petroleum drilling.
Embodiment
Below in conjunction with instance the present invention is described further.
Example one
It is 40% milk of starch that W-Gum is made into concentration by mass ratio, and placing hyperacoustic electric power is that 200W, frequency are the ultrasound reactor of 20kHz, ultrasonication 10min; Take out then, the suction filtration oven dry mixes its sodium hydroxide 2.8% SODIUM SULPHATE ANHYDROUS 99PCT, 3.4% propylene oxide with 0.32% again; Fully stir, mix; Be placed in the microwave reactor at last and react, the power of microwave is 100W, and be 2min action time.Reaction finishes, and the HCL that takes out with 1mol/L is neutralized to pH5.5~6.0, dries, and gets final product to such an extent that the molecule substitution value is 0.03 hydroxypropylated starch.
Example two
It is 45% milk of starch that the wheat starch raw material is made into concentration by mass ratio, and placing hyperacoustic electric power is that 250W, frequency are the ultrasound reactor of 40kHz, ultrasonication 30min; Take out then, the suction filtration oven dry mixes its sodium hydroxide, 3.0% SODIUM SULPHATE ANHYDROUS 99PCT, 3.8% propylene oxide with 0.35% again; Fully stir, mix; Be placed in the microwave reactor at last and react, the power of microwave is 150W, and be 3min action time.Reaction finishes, and the HCL that takes out with 1mol/L is neutralized to pH5.5~6.0, dries to get final product to such an extent that the molecule substitution value is 0.09 hydroxypropylated starch.
