Description

Polyamide casting for the production of homogeneous particle
Technical field
The present invention relates to produce polyamide polymer homogeneous particle method and for the manufacture of the device of the polyamide granules of homogeneous.
Background technology
At the particular types fatty polyamide that repeats to have between amide units at least 85% aliphatic key, be described as nylon polyamide.Known these aliphatic polyamides are derivative from dicarboxylic acids and other derivative (as acid anhydrides, acid amides, acyl halide, half ester and diester) that can form the dicarboxylic acids of acid amides, conventionally react with primary amine or secondary amine.More specifically, by monomer (as dicarboxylic acids and diamines), form aliphatic polyamide polymers, known is by primary diamines or secondary diamine (being connected to the diamines at least on each nitrogen with a hydrogen) and dicarboxylic acids, maybe to be formed having reacted of derivative of the dicarboxylic acids of acid amides.The example of reaction process is as follows:
HOOC-R-COOH+H 2N-R'-NH 2
-[NH-R'-NH-CO-R-CO]- n-+nH 2O
Wherein R and R' represent bivalent hydrocarbon radical, and n represents the quantity of repetitive and the quantity of hydrone.
In group (R and R ') separately, the quantity of carbon atom is named " construction unit " of polymer derivative from a molecule of each diacid and diamines.Therefore,, by hexa-methylene-1, the polyamide of 6-diamines and adipic acid is " nylon 6,6 " (polyhexamethylene adipamide).
Fibre-forming polyamide can form the preparing of dicarboxylic acid derivatives of acid amides by (being generally 180 ℃ to 300 ℃) and heating the diamines of equimolar amounts substantially and dicarboxylic acids or heating under polycondensation reaction condition.This product has fiber and forms character, wherein can realize sufficiently high molecular weight.
The characteristic of a given polyamide can change in sizable scope, and may depend on molecular weight.To a certain extent, this polyamide characteristic is subject to the impact of the character of its end group, and this depends on excessive which kind of reactant that used, diamines or dicarboxylic acids.
Two features of fibre-forming polyamide relate to its high-melting-point and low solubility.Fibre-forming polyamide by being derived compared with the amine of simple types and acid institute is opaque solid always almost, and described opaque solid can melt or become transparent at a quite definite temperature.The fine polyamide of shape lower than its fusing point, when detecting with X ray, generally presents the positive evidence of the crystal structure of sharp-pointed X-ray crystal powder diffraction pattern, large bulk state.The density of these polyamide is conventionally between 1.0 and 1.2, and more specifically, the density of nylon 6,6 is considered to 1.14 gram per centimeters at present 3.
The same with other polycondensation products, polyamide generally comprises the separate unit of very approximate structure.The mean size of these separate units, the mean molecule quantity of polymer are deliberately controlled in certain limited field.Polymerisation is more further carried out, and mean molecule quantity (and inherent viscosity) will be higher.
If equimolar amounts is used reactant completely, under the condition that can make volatile products overflow, continue for a long time polymerization and heating, and can obtain the polyamide of very high molecular weight.Yet if the arbitrary reactant of excessive use, polymerization proceeds to certain a bit, then substantially stops.The time point that polymerization stops may depending on the amount of diamines or the binary acid (or derivative) of excessive use.
The easy method of preparing polyamide comprises: by mix diamines and the dicarboxylic acids of approximately chemical equivalent in liquid, prepare a salt, described liquid may be selected to be the poor solvent to product salt.If needed, can take by the solvent crystallization from suitable subsequently the salt of purifying separation from liquid.These diamines-dicarboxylates are crystalloid, and have definite fusing point.Their water solubles, and can from some alcohol and alcohol-aqueous mixtures, carry out crystallization easily.
From diamines-dicarboxylate, preparing fibre-forming polyamide can carry out in many ways.Do not having under the condition of solvent or diluent, and under the condition of the water generating, this salt can be heated to reaction temperature (180 ℃ to 300 ℃) in allowing to remove reaction.With it, manufacturing before the object of filament and other shape, may need polyamide to be placed under reduced pressure, for example, be equivalent under the absolute pressure of 50 to 300 millimetress of mercury (67 to 400 millibars).This can, before making polymer cure, complete by the emptying reactor of preparing polyamide very easily.
In the ordinary course of things, in above-mentioned polyamide forming process, necessarily require not add catalyst.For example, yet some phosphorous material (metal phosphinate hydrochlorate and phosphate) plays catalytic action to a certain extent as everyone knows.Use the catalyst adding sometimes to the material of preparing HMW, to give extra advantage.
The commercialization preparation of most of linear condensation things, polyamide is usually directed to heat monomer parent material, to cause the condensation of progressive polymer.This process is carried out in several stages conventionally, comprises in the middle of removing volatile matter and forms low-molecular-weight, low viscous polymeric liquid.At various vacuum and the time of staying and temperature, process this low-molecular-weight, low viscous polymeric liquid so that polymer can reach required final molecular weight and viscosity.
Although desired final molecular weight and viscosity generally can realize, the homogeneity that obtains consistent polymeric material during casting may go wrong.Therefore, finding and utilize multiple technologies manufacture to have the polymeric material of the homogeneity of improvement, is the progress in this area.

As described herein, the invention provides the polyamide polymer of extruding by cutting and adjust the apparatus and method that kinds of processes parameter forms the homogeneous particle of polyamide polymer.Especially, method of the present invention allows to regulate the first technological parameter in response to the change of above-mentioned other a kind of technological parameter, and described the first technological parameter comprises cutting speed, extrudes valve opening and container pressure.In addition, on the one hand, can adjust two technological parameters in response to the 3rd technological parameter.In one embodiment, although adjustable any technological parameter or two technological parameters, the technological parameter being conditioned can be or can comprise container pressure.On the other hand, the technological parameter being conditioned can be maybe can comprise and extrude valve opening.On the other hand, the technological parameter being conditioned can be maybe can comprise cutting speed.
Forward now Fig. 2 to, device for the manufacture of homogeneous polyamide granules can comprise container 20, as being similar to the autoclave as shown in Figure 1A and/or Figure 1B, described container 20 comprises pressure controller (it can be the form of inlet line/valve 28, discharge pipe/valve 30 and/or heating component 26).Although it should be noted that the heating component that has shown external jacket, can replace with or increase inner heating component.Also shown and extruded valve 34 for what polymer was extruded to structure extrudes by Die and mould plate or other.Described device also can comprise cutter 36, and described cutter is configured to have the cutting speed of the polyamide granules that is applicable to cutting homogeneous.For example, described cutter can be revolution cutter, and it is configured to cut very fast during by it when the polymer being extruded.Described device also can comprise process controller 60, and it can comprise pressure control module 70, cutting speed module 80 and extrude valve module 90.Described device also can comprise plate 38, slurry collection equipment 40, slurry pipeline 42 and drier/circulator 44.
In the further description of the process controller 60 about described device, can automatically implement with multiple module 70,80,90 general utility functions or the processing step of automation equipment.For example, can control imported valve 28, autoclave ventilating opening 30 and heating component 26 by pressure control unit 70, with the adjusting of authorized pressure.Can control cutter 36 by cutting speed module 80.Can control and extrude valve 34 by extruding valve module 90.Other module (not shown)s that can exist, include but not limited to agitator module, drier module, heating component module etc.Described module can be worked simultaneously, to cause the mode of the polyamide granules of homogeneous that automated system is provided.
Fig. 3 has set forth the figure of explanation embodiment, and in an embodiment, these modules are worked simultaneously and realized remarkable according to an embodiment of the invention homogeneity.Particularly, Fig. 3 has illustrated the casting figure of the technological parameter of device according to the embodiment of the present invention.Particularly, this figure provides during casting as the autoclave pressure of passing through single batch casting method of the function of time, from the output of the polyamide polymer of autoclave, has linearizingly extruded valve figure, and cutting speed.As shown in the figure, regulate kinds of processes parameter that substantially invariable output is provided under high cutting speed, and the automatic mode that also keeps high throughput rate when keeping particle homogeneity is provided thus.
In the chart of Fig. 3, also should be noted that and changed cutting speed, and cutting speed and output is substantially proportional,, when output rises or decline (as shown in the chart), cutting speed rises equally respectively and declines.Because term " substantially " relates to output or relative coupling proportional with cutting speed, it may be defined as any matching degree, under this matching degree, the average quality of a collection of particle of homogeneous is that to have the Individual Quality of at least 95% individual particles be described average quality to described a collection of particle in 10%.By basic coupling cutting speed, to the relatively moving of output, can keep homogeneity.As a result, pressure controller has kept output in rational scope with the use of extruding valve, for realizing effective sectility face.For example, in the efficient system of the high yield providing in the pressure by applicable and linear valve aperture, cutting speed can be carried out to relative coupling with output.Should notice that cutting speed also rises when output rises.
Turn back to Fig. 2, as described herein, the pressure of container 20 can be spontaneous, or can generate from external pressure source.In addition, can regulate pressure with heat, pressure source (not shown) and/or air vent 30.Extrude valve 34 general control apertures, polyamide polymer is extruded from described opening.In some respects, extrude valve opening and can be called as the linear aperture of extruding valve." linearity " used herein refer to be equivalent to described valve opening (opening region) than the mathematic(al) manipulation of the percentage of the material of extruding by opening.For example, " linearity " aperture of 50% refers to from 100%(100% and refers to the heap(ed) capacity while opening valve completely) total amount in from opening, extrude 50% material, even if valve opening (opening region) the obtained aperture that may not be 50%.It should be noted that when valve and do not set and approach 100% while opening, have the control of the output of more polyamide polymer far away.When valve proximity 70% or 80% aperture, the control of output is significantly reduced.For example, the aperture of valve is changed to 50% pair of output from 40% and there is relatively significant effect, and valve is reached to 90% pair of output from 80%, there is very little effect.Therefore, it is desirable to keep valve as far as possible in the scope of approximately 30% to 70% aperture, and more typically during polymer casting process, remain in 35% to 60% scope.In order to complete this target, can change pressure and/or cutting speed and keep valve opening in the preferred range.Although described these, these are not what be strict with.This has been to provide a kind of mechanism, to keep the maximum flexibility about the aperture of squeezing valve.
Be back to the multiple adjusting of technological parameter, can in response to the variation of other technological parameters, carry out the adjusting of described kinds of processes parameter, should be noted that the adjusting of technological parameter can be carried out successively or simultaneously (or carrying out successively) within the overlapping time.In one embodiment, can regulate in response to the variation of the 3rd technological parameter more than one technological parameter.In order to provide embodiment to illustrate that why these technological parameters can benefit from change, once should be noted that from HIGH PRESSURE TREATMENT container and start extrusion, the polyamide polymer conventionally wherein containing does not also finish its polymerization process completely.Therefore, polyamide polymer can continue further multiviscosisty during extrusion.Have been found that under this condition and can not keep simply output and prior particle homogeneity by independent increase pressure.Similarly, only further open and extrude valve 34 and also can always not make up fully the polymer of multiviscosisty.In addition,, even by controlling together two in these parameters, adjust cutting speed if not the variation based on output, the homogeneity of polyamide granules also can suffer damage.
About described adjusting, method of the present invention allows the more effective adjusting to output, and mates to provide the former homogeneity not realizing in conjunction with cutting speed and output.Particularly, there are two variablees that affect actual production: i) extrude valve opening, the raising of aperture causes the raising of output, and ii) autoclave pressure, the raising of autoclave pressure also causes the raising of output.Extrude valve opening and be applicable to the measured output of Fast Correction.But, by the aperture of four corner, keep constant output normally very limited.In addition,, while reducing autoclave pressure during casting, in autoclave, may there is the significant bubble of polymer.This makes autoclave pressure be not suitable as the Main Means of controlling output.In order to overcome these two, become quantitative limitation, with valve, export to control output.Then, each valve opening is exported when above in the target limiting, and just further increases the pressure of autoclave.With a plurality of variablees, control output more efficient than conventional art far away.Further, embodiments of the present invention allow cutting speed to mate to provide the particle homogeneity that there is no realization before with output.
Therefore, apparatus and method of the present invention comprise by the pressure, the valve opening of variation and the cutting speed of variation that change controls productive rate, and therefore controls particle homogeneity, realizes the particle of homogeneous with effective means.Therefore, in a specific embodiment, exemplary output can be in the scope of 2 to 10 tphs or 5 to 9 tphs, or more particularly, 6 to 8 tphs.Exemplary pressure during extruding can be at 0 to 12 bar, 1 to 10 bar, or in the scope of 5 to 10 bar.Exemplary valve opening level can be in 30% to 70% scope, or in 45% to 65% scope.Use the exemplary cutting speed of helical cutters or other similar rotary cutters in 100 to 2000RPM scope, 400 to 1800RPM, or in 600 to 1500RPM scope.Conventionally, during casting, these technological parameters are remained within the scope of these, and by adjust described parameter within the scope of these, can realize the homogeneity of polyamide granules.Although stated above-mentioned these, also can use the technological parameter beyond these scopes, as long as can keep particle homogeneity as described in the present invention.
