A kind of dispersion agent, its preparation method and the application in anionic polyacrylamide water-dispersible emulsion polymerization thereof
Technical field
The invention belongs to water-soluble polymer synthesis technical field, particularly relate to a kind of dispersion agent, its preparation method, and the polymerization process of anionic polyacrylamide water-dispersion emulsion.
Background technology
The constructional feature of polyacrylamide and complete kind make it to be widely applied in the every field of national economy, enjoy the title of " all trades auxiliary agent ".In China, the application of polyacrylamide in the large field of oil, water treatment and papermaking three is even more important.
The method of synthesis polyacrylamide comprises solution polymerization, inverse suspension polymerization and inverse emulsion polymerization.Solution polymerization later stage viscosity is very high, stir and dispel the heat very difficult, and need to use special equipment drying to make powder, complicated technical process often causes polyacrylamide chain that a series of side reactions such as crosslinked or degraded occur, when causing product to use dissolve difficulty, need for a long time with special dissolution equipment.Emulsion-type (water-in-oil) polyacrylamide has good solvability, but this kind of method needs to use a large amount of hydrocarbon organic solvents and tensio-active agent, easily causes secondary pollution to environment.
Because production efficiency is high, technique environmental protection, product dissolves aqueous dispersion polymerization (aqueous dispersion polymerization is also referred to as water-water polymerization or double-aqueous phase polymerization) and flocculating property excellence becomes various countries' research emphasis.At present, the synthesis of cationic polyacrylamide water-dispersion emulsion has obtained certain progress, European patent EP 0183466 and EP0657478, US Patent No. 4929655 and US5006590 all describe in the aqueous solution containing multivalent anions salt and polymer stabilizer, obtain water-in-water emulsion by acrylamide and acrylyl oxy-ethyl-trimethyl salmiac, the copolymerization of acryloxyethyldimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride.
Compared with cationic, the synthesis of anion-polyacrylamide in brine media, much more difficult owing to not easily choosing with the acrylamide derivative monomer copolymerization of hydrophobic grouping, correlative study is also more rare.CN101649024A promotes to separate out phase-splitting by adding esters of acrylic acid hydrophobic monomer, add simultaneously and there is surface-active function monomer, improve early stage stabilization efficiency, but the introducing of this type of hydrophobic monomer often reduces the molecular weight of product, solvability is deteriorated greatly simultaneously; CN1519259A is then by adopting the one package stabilizer of non-ionic type polymer and multicomponent alcoholics compound to improve stabilising effect, but multicomponent alcoholics compound exists chain transfer to radical polymerization, is unfavorable for the product obtaining high molecular.
As can be seen here, the selection of dispersion agent is to reaction important, current patent and document all adopt linear anionic polymer or non ionic polymer as dispersion agent, emulsion particle is stablized in the sterically hindered effect utilizing polymer adsorption to produce at particle surface, this just requires that dispersion agent has certain molecular weight (can up to 500,000 ~ 1,500,000), this brings series of problems: first, reaction is carried out in high salt medium, the too high dispersion agent of molecular weight is difficult to rapid solution, even if dissolve, its molecular conformation affects by salt concn and is in the state of rolling up, greatly reduce its adsorption rate and stabilization, secondly, the too high initial reaction stage system viscosity that causes of dispersant molecule amount is larger, add the mutual entanglement between macromolecular chain, and macromolecular chain is difficult to the feature of diffusion motion, initial reaction stage dispersant adsorption speed is very slow, and often because not stablize the emulsion particle of precipitation in time, the system viscosity of making explodes and causes being polymerized unsuccessfully.Again, the electric density of linear anionic polymer is higher, and itself and latex ion exist stronger electrical charge rejection effect, easily causes dispersant molecule in the desorption on latex particle surface, is unfavorable for the extended storage stability of water-dispersion emulsion.
Summary of the invention
The invention provides a kind of dispersion agent, overcome above-mentioned shortcoming and defect; Present invention also offers the preparation method of described dispersion agent; And the application method of dispersion agent of the present invention in anionic polyacrylamide emulsion polymerization.

A: b: c=(2.5 ~ 7.5): (2.5 ~ 5): 1; N value is 5 ~ 25, and the molecular weight of described comb-grafted copolymer is 10000 ~ 100000.
Dispersion agent of the present invention, molecular weight, introduce sulfonic acid group or cation group in the structure, salt sensitivity is lower, and therefore can keep the chain conformation comparatively stretched in high salt, rate of diffusion and adsorption rate significantly improve; When being applied in emulsion polymerization, stabilization can be played rapidly to the emulsion particle that the polyreaction initial stage generates; Meanwhile, owing to having the graft side chain of larger steric hindrance, the relatively conventional linear polymeric of its stably dispersing effect is promoted further, is conducive to polymerization reaction late stage stable system, also improves emulsion extended storage stability simultaneously; Cation group in addition on dispersion agent chain link can strengthen the effect of dispersion agent and electronegative emulsion particle, reduces the desorption of stablizer, has obvious effect to raising reaction later transformation rate, product solid content and electric charge degree.
As improvement, the n value in general formula (1) is 10 ~ 20.
When n value is 5 ~ 10, the adsorption rate of dispersion agent is faster, is conducive to the fast and stable of the emulsion particle of early origin, makes early stage viscosity lower, but due to side chain shorter, the dispersion liquid viscosity finally obtained is slightly large; When n value is 20 ~ 25, dispersion agent side chain is longer, and early stage dispersion effect is slightly poor, and the latex particle size of formation is slightly large, and solvability has some to affect.

The concentration requirement of initiator solution is little, as long as control to drip off within preset time: concentration height then drips slowly, hurry up, the too high amount of solution of concentration is less for the low dropping of concentration, and the more difficult control of rate of addition, therefore controls 0.5% ~ 5%.In principle particular requirement be there is no for mass concentration, as long as the time added can be controlled
Monomer mixture and initiator solution take the above-mentioned mode separately dripped, and control the homogeneity of the segment distribution of described dispersion agent and the stability of polyreaction.
