Description

The synthetic method of polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of synthetic method of polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether.
Background technology
In recent years, along with International Crude Oil continue day by day being becoming tight of soaring and resource, the oil supply pressure unprecedentedly increases.Utilize the coal resources advantage of China's abundant, be subject to people's attention day by day by the oil product substitute of coal-based methanol development of new.
Polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether, promptly Polyoxymethylene dimethyl ethers (PODE) is the common name of a class material, its skeleton symbol can be expressed as CH 3O (CH 2O) nCH 3, have higher octane value (>30) and oxygen level (42~51%).When the value of n was 2~10, its physical properties, combustionproperty and diesel oil were very approaching.Therefore polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether can be used as novel clean diesel component, and the addition in diesel oil can reach 30% (v/v), can improve the combustion position of diesel oil in engine, improves thermo-efficiency, reduces particulate matter and CO in the tail gas xAnd NO xDischarging.It is reported, add 5~30% CH 3OCH 2OCH 3Can reduce NO xDischarging 7~10%, PM reduces by 5~35%.Synthetic PODE not only can replace part diesel oil by coal-based methanol, can also improve the efficiency of combustion of diesel oil, has strategic importance and good economic worth.
Polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether can exist down in the method preparation of 150~180 ℃ of heating low polymerization degree Paraformaldehyde 96s or paraformaldehyde and methyl alcohol reaction by trace sulfuric acid or hydrochloric acid in the laboratory.In recent years, the polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether synthetic technology has obtained progress.
US2,449,469 have described and a kind ofly are raw material, prepare the method for the polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether of n=2~4 with sulfuric acid as catalyzer high temperature with methylal and paraformaldehyde.
US5,746,785 to have described molar mass be 80~350 to be equivalent to the preparation method of the polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether of n=1~10, this method adopt 0.1wt% formic acid as catalyzer at the mixing solutionss of 150~240 ℃ of heating methylals with paraformaldehyde or methyl alcohol and paraformaldehyde, the polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether that is obtained can the amount adding diesel-fuel of 5~30wt% in.
WO2006/045506A1 has introduced BASF AG and has used sulfuric acid, trifluoromethanesulfonic acid as catalyzer, is the series product that raw material has obtained n=1~10 with methylal, paraformaldehyde, trioxymethylene.
Above-mentioned several method all adopts protonic acid as catalyzer, and this catalyzer is cheap and easy to get, but corrodibility is strong, is difficult to separate, and environmental pollution is big, to the demanding shortcoming of equipment.
It is raw material that US6160174 and US62655284 have introduced BP company employing methyl alcohol, formaldehyde, dme and methylal, adopts anionite-exchange resin as catalyzer, and gas-solid phase reaction obtains polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether.Though but this method has the catalyzer separate easily, is beneficial to advantages such as circulation, reaction conversion ratio is low, and productive rate is not high, complex process.
CN 101182367A has introduced the employing acidic ionic liquid as catalyzer, is the method for reactant synthesizing polyoxymethylene dme by methyl alcohol and trioxymethylene.But it is higher that this method also exists the catalyzer cost, and to equipment corrosion, and the catalyzer its separate reclaims and the problem of purification.
Up to the present all there is a) catalyst separating difficulty in the polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether synthesis technique of report in sum; B) reactivity worth: the transformation efficiency of trioxymethylene is low, and selectivity of product is poor, and the problem that n=2~10 yields are low makes this technology fail to enter application.
Summary of the invention
Technical problem to be solved by this invention is that prior art catalyst separating in the process of synthesizing polyoxymethylene dme transformation efficiency difficult and trioxymethylene is low, selectivity of product is poor, the problem that the product yield of n=2~10 is low provides a kind of synthetic method of new polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether.This method has catalyzer and separates with reaction effluent simply; The transformation efficiency height of raw material trioxymethylene, the good product selectivity of n=2~10, the advantage that yield is high.
In order to solve the problems of the technologies described above, the technical solution used in the present invention is as follows: a kind of synthetic method of polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether, with methyl alcohol and trioxymethylene is raw material, methyl alcohol: the mol ratio of trioxymethylene is 0.5~10: 1, in temperature of reaction is 70~200 ℃, reaction pressure is under 0.2~6MPa condition, raw material and catalyzer generation catalyzed reaction make polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether, catalyst levels is 0.1~5.0% of a raw material weight, and wherein used catalyzer is selected from solid super-strong acid and comprises following component in parts by weight: a) 20~70 parts are selected from sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid or persulfuric acid acid or its salt at least a; B) 30~80 parts carrier, carrier is selected from ZrO 2, TiO 2, SiO 2, Fe 2O 3, SnO 2, WO 3Or Al 2O 3In at least a.
In the technique scheme, the mol ratio preferable range of methyl alcohol and trioxymethylene is 1.0~5.0: 1, and the solid super-strong acid preferred version is selected from SO 4 2-/ ZrO 2, SO 4 2-/ Fe 2O 3, Cl -/ TiO 2, Cl -/ Fe 2O 3, SO 4 2-/ Al 2O 3Or S 2O 8 2-/ ZrO 2In at least a, the catalyst levels preferable range is 1.0~5.0% of a raw material weight.The preferable range of temperature of reaction is 100~150 ℃, and the reaction pressure preferable range is 0.5~4.0MPa.The product polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether that catalyzed reaction makes can be by filtering or centrifugal mode separating catalyst and liquid phase reaction thing.
The catalyst solid super acids is a solid among the present invention, and the raw material that uses is liquid phase methyl alcohol and trioxymethylene solution, and product also is liquid, so post catalyst reaction and product be separated into solid-liquid separation, and technology is easy.Because catalyst system therefor contains extremely strong acidity, therefore can keep higher reaction conversion ratio and product yield.Use the inventive method, in temperature of reaction is 70~200 ℃, reaction pressure is under 0.2~6MPa condition, make the reaction of methyl alcohol and trioxymethylene, because catalyzer is a solid super-strong acid, so catalyzer separates simply the transformation efficiency height of raw material trioxymethylene with reaction product, the product yield height of n=2~10 has been obtained better technical effect.
The present invention is further elaborated below by embodiment.
