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 environmental protection softening agent, is widely used in the industries such as food and medical apparatus packing, makeup, daily necessities, substitutes gradually the phthalate that tradition is used, and becomes the primary plasticizer of plastic industry.The production method of tradition tributyl citrate is take the vitriol oil as catalyzer, has the side reactions such as oxidation, refining difficulty, the shortcomings such as equipment corrosion is serious, environmental pollution.Some factories' employing tosic acid are catalyzer in recent years, have good catalytic effect, but catalyst levels are larger, and price is more expensive, not yet finds the method for recycling use, and production cost is higher.
Summary of the invention
The object of the invention is to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art, a kind of method that can easy recovery tosic acid be reused for next batch and produces tributyl citrate and be used as catalyzer is provided, present method provides the way that a kind of lemon acid monoester, dibasic acid esters reclaim simultaneously, reduce neutralization loss, improve product yield, reduce cost, reduced organism discharge, alleviated pollution.
One, the chemical reaction of institute of the present invention foundation is as follows:
Figure 814931DEST_PATH_IMAGE001
Two, the solution of the present invention mainly comprises the following steps:

(2), carboxylate dealcoholysis is first arrived to flash-point >=162 ℃;
(3), reclaim the tosic acid in carboxylate after dealcoholysis by the water dissolution of 1.6 ~ 2.0 times of catalyst weights, isolated water adds recycled in the production stage (1) of next batch;
(4), in oil phase, add alkali lye to neutralize PH=7.0 ~ 7.5, remove water, oil phase is washed to neutrality;
(5), by washing after carboxylate add gac and again dealcoholysis to flash-point >=180 ℃, obtain thick ester;
(6), thick ester obtains industrial goods tributyl citrate after filtration.
In order further to improve technique effect of the present invention, such scheme also comprises following improvement:
In step (1), propyl carbinol adds at twice, adds 70 ~ 80% of total alcohol amount before intensification, adds remaining propyl carbinol while being warmed up to 125-130 ℃, and the reaction time of esterification of described 125-135 ℃ is 7-8 hour.
The water of step (4) neutralizes PH 1 ~ 2 with the sulfuric acid that mass concentration is 70 ~ 90%, and point oil-yielding stratum (citric acid mono—n—butylester and two butyl ester) adds recycled in next batch production stage (1).
In step (1) and step (5), gac is wood activated charcoal, and its add-on is 0.2% of Citric acid monohydrate Food grade and butanols gross weight.In dealcoholysis first in step (2) and step (5), the control parameter of dealcoholysis is again: liquidus temperature≤120 ℃, pressure≤-0.095Mpa.Step (3) solvent temperature is 80-90 ℃, and in order to improve dealcoholysis effect, in the dealcoholysis of step (5), in the time that liquidus temperature reaches 100 ℃, logical steam stripped 0.5-1 hour, then leads to N 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 described step (6) is 80 ~ 90 ℃.
Compared with prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
(1) this technique esterification transformation efficiency is high, can be up to more than 99.0%, and 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 technique is effective, and after esterification completes, available short-cut method reclaims, and the rate of recovery reaches more than 75%, can repeat to do catalyzer and use, and reduces blowdown, reduces COD, BOD in waste water.
(3) in this technique, citric acid mono—n—butylester and two butyl ester are recyclable, and resterification becomes tributyl citrate again, reduces supplies consumption, not only economy but also environmental protection.
(4) this technique, directly take reactant propyl carbinol as band aqua, has been avoided the use of poisonous toluene, cyclohexane, heptane etc.
(5) simple, the esterification mild condition of technique of the present invention, reaction times are short.
