As everyone knows, adopt three-step approach or coupling method to produce the block butylbenzene copolymer, need three steps of branch to feed in raw material at least, the reaction times is more than 1~2 hour.Two steps of bibliographical information are mixed reinforced method, though can reduce once reinforced operation, because of the performance of its product performance not as the aforesaid method products obtained therefrom, thereby fail to realize suitability for industrialized production.
U.S. Pat 4600749 provides that a kind of what improve elongation, oil-proofness is the butylbenzene copolymer manufacture method of four or six blocks at least, its temperature of reaction is usually at 30~100 ℃, reaction times is very long, particularly when preparation above high elongation rate of six blocks or oil resistant butadiene-styrene block copolymer, process complexity, production efficiency are not high.
The object of the present invention is to provide a kind of manufacture method of simple to operation, butadiene-styrene block copolymer rapidly and efficiently, this method is particularly suitable for the manufacturing of high elongation rate butadiene-styrene block copolymer thermoplastic elastomer.
The present invention finds, suitably improves and the controlled polymerization temperature, can in controlled scope polymerization rate obviously be increased, thereby significantly shorten polymerization time, enhances productivity greatly.Simultaneously, improve polymerization temperature and also can impel the random copolymerization of vinylbenzene and divinyl, thereby form long random styrene-butadiene rubber block, it is different from the excessive block of usually said gradation type.Owing to the existence of this random styrene-butadiene rubber block, improved the elongation of product, improved the performance of product.
Therefore, purpose of the present invention can be by realizing in the method that surpasses the high temperature polymerization reaction under the conventional polymerization temperature.Butylbenzene benzene segmented copolymer manufacture method of the present invention comprises the steps:
(1) in polymerization reactor, adds inert solvent, first vinylbenzene and initiator organolithium compound respectively, under suitable polymerization temperature, carry out the first step polyreaction;
(2) after the first step reaction finishes, add divinyl, second batch of vinylbenzene again, under suitable polymerization temperature, carry out the second step polyreaction;
(3) after second step, reaction finished, add terminator, finish reaction.
As required, carrying out for second when reaction step, also can suitably add the initiator organolithium compound.
If needed, after second step, reaction was finished, can be that also identical polymerization temperature of second step continues to divide many endorsements solely to add vinylbenzene or divinyl down, perhaps adds vinylbenzene and divinyl, simultaneously to form segmented copolymer.Add in the process of polymerization single polymerization monomer in above-mentioned continuation, also can add an amount of initiator organolithium compound simultaneously.
Said polymerization reactor can be various reaction flasks, or has the metal polymerization reaction kettle of stirring.
Said vinylbenzene and divinyl are the polymerization-grade monomer, with preceding drying again and remove impurity and handle.In the present invention, the vinylbenzene of first adding (being designated as S1) is 1/1.0~1/1.5 (weight ratio) with the feeding quantity of the vinylbenzene (being designated as S2) of second batch of adding than (being designated as S1/S2), be preferably 1/1.1~1/1.3 (weight ratio), the feed molar ratio of vinylbenzene (being designated as S) total amount and divinyl (being designated as B) total amount (be designated as S total/B is total) is 10/90~90/10 (weight ratio), is preferably 25/75~75/25 (weight ratio).
Said initiator organolithium can be alkyl lithium compounds, for example n-Butyl Lithium, s-butyl lithium etc.The add-on of organolithium is by the molecular weight decision of required polymkeric substance.The molecular weight of polymkeric substance of the present invention is 10000~500000, can determine the consumption of organolithium thus.Mentioned as the front, in the present invention, also can in the reaction of second step, add basic lithium.Add the segmented copolymer that organolithium can form two kinds of structures, the elongation of product is further improved, have higher using value.In the present invention, having added basic lithium generally is that organolithium is added in two batches, the organolithium of first adding (being designated as Li1) is generally 0.01~0.30 (mol ratio) with the amount ratio (being designated as Li2/Li1) of the organolithium (being designated as Li2) of second batch of adding, is preferably 0.05~0.2 (mol ratio).Obviously, organolithium also can divide more batches of addings in the present invention.
Said inert solvent can be alkane, naphthenic hydrocarbon, aromatic hydrocarbons or its mixture, for example hexane, heptane, hexanaphthene etc.
Said terminator is for polyreaction terminator commonly used, as water, methyl alcohol, ethanol or Virahol etc.
Said suitable polymerization temperature is 60 ℃~100 ℃ for the first step polyreaction, is preferably 70 ℃~90 ℃; For 60 ℃~150 ℃ of the second step polyreactions, be preferably 80 ℃~140 ℃.
In the preparation process of butadiene-styrene block copolymer of the present invention, need not add polar compound as activator, thereby simplify polymerization process, particularly help the carrying out of solvent recuperation process.Certainly, adding polar compound in preparation process also is fine.Said polar compound is for making common used polar compound, for example tetrahydrofuran (THF), glycol dimethyl ether, diethylene glycol dimethyl ether, triethylene glycol dme, tetraethyleneglycol dimethyl ether and tetramethyl quadrol etc. in the butylbenzene copolymer.
