Description

The production technique of plasticizer tirbutyl citrate
Technical field
The invention belongs to the synthetic field of fine chemistry industry, be specifically related to a kind of synthesis technique of tributyl citrate.
Background technology
Tributyl citrate is the environmental protection softening agent, is widely used in industries such as food and medical apparatus packing, makeup, daily necessities, substitutes the phthalate that tradition is used gradually, becomes the primary plasticizer of plastic industry.The working method of tradition tributyl citrate is to be catalyzer with the vitriol oil, has side reactions such as oxidation, refining difficulty, shortcomings such as equipment corrosion is serious, environmental pollution.Some factories' employing tosic acid are catalyzer in recent years, have catalytic effect preferably, but catalyst levels are bigger, and price is more expensive, does not find the method for recycling use as yet, and production cost is higher.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is to overcome the deficiency that exists in the prior art; Provide a kind of and can be reused for the method that next batch production tributyl citrate is used as catalyzer by easy recovery tosic acid, present method provides the way that a kind of lemon acid monoester, dibasic acid esters reclaim simultaneously, having reduced the neutralization loss; Improved product yield; Reduce cost, reduced the organism discharging, alleviated pollution.
One, the chemical reaction of institute of the present invention foundation is following:
Figure 814931DEST_PATH_IMAGE001
Two, scheme of the present invention mainly may further comprise the steps:

(2), with carboxylate dealcoholysis first to flash-point >=162 ℃;
(3), with the tosic acid in the carboxylate after the water dissolution recovery dealcoholysis of 1.6 ~ 2.0 times of catalyst weights, recycled in the production stage (1) of isolated water adding next batch;
(4), in oil phase, add alkali lye PH=7.0 ~ 7.5 that neutralize, remove water, oil phase is washed to neutrality;
(5), the carboxylate after will washing adds gac and dealcoholysis to flash-point >=180 ℃ once more, obtains thick ester;
(6), thick ester is through filtering the industrial goods tributyl citrate.
In order further to improve technique effect of the present invention, such scheme also comprises following improvement:
Propyl carbinol adds at twice in the step (1), adds 70 ~ 80% of total alcohol amount before heating up, and adds remaining propyl carbinol when being warmed up to 125-130 ℃, and said 125-135 ℃ reaction time of esterification is 7-8 hour.
It is 70 ~ 90% the sulfuric acid PH 1 ~ 2 that neutralizes that the water of step (4) uses mass concentration, divides oil-yielding stratum (Hydrocerol A mono and two butyl esters) to add recycled in the next batch production stage (1).
Gac is a wood activated charcoal in step (1) and the step (5), and its add-on is 0.2% of Citric acid monohydrate Food grade and butanols gross weight.In dealcoholysis first in the step (2) and the step (5) once more the controlled variable of dealcoholysis be: liquidus temperature≤120 ℃, pressure≤-0.095Mpa.Step (3) solvent temperature is 80-90 ℃, in order to improve the dealcoholysis effect, when liquidus temperature reaches 100 ℃, logical steam stripped 0.5-1 hour, leads to N then in the dealcoholysis of step (5) 2To flash-point (opening)>=180 ℃; The alkali lye of step (4) is 6 ~ 8% sodium hydroxide or sodium carbonate solution, and neutral temperature is 70-75 ℃; The filtration temperature of said step (6) is 80 ~ 90 ℃.
Compared with prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
(1) this technology esterification transformation efficiency is high, can be up to more than 99.0%, and the tributyl citrate yield can reach more than 98%, has reduced unit consumption, has reduced cost.
(2) the catalyzer Catalyzed by p-Toluenesulfonic Acid of this technology is effective, and available short-cut method reclaimed after esterification was accomplished, and the recovery reaches more than 75%, can repeat to do catalyzer and use, and reduces blowdown, reduces COD, BOD in the waste water.
(3) the Hydrocerol A mono is recyclable with two butyl esters in this technology, and resterification becomes tributyl citrate again, reduces supplies consumption, not only economy but also environmental protection.
(4) this technology serves as the band aqua with the reactant propyl carbinol directly, has avoided the use of deleterious toluene, cyclohexane, heptane etc.
(5) simple, the esterification mild condition of technology of the present invention, reaction times are short.
