A kind of preparation method of hydroxide
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of preparation method of hydroxide, particularly, the present invention relates to a kind of employingBipolar membrane electrodialysis process is prepared the method for hydroxide.
Background technology
Quaternary ammonium base is a kind of important organic base, of many uses, can be used as integrated circuit in electronics industryCleaning agent, etching agent and the polishing agent of plate, can also and urge as the auxiliary agent in oil refining and Chemical EngineeringAgent. And quaternary ammonium base (as TPAOH, tetraethyl ammonium hydroxide) is that synthesis of titanium silicon dividesIrreplaceable alkali source and template in son sieve, HTS has good selective paraffin oxidation catalysisPerformance is to produce indispensable catalyst in hydroquinones, cyclohexanone oxime and expoxy propane process.
At present, the method for production quaternary ammonium base mainly contains the precipitation method, ion-exchange and electroosmose process. Wherein,The precipitation method are that quaternary ammonium salt is dissolved in suitable organic solvent, then add alkali, make the moon in quaternary ammonium saltThe cation of ion in alkali is combined, and is settled out compared with little salt to be formed on solubility in organic solventCome, after separating, obtain the method for quaternary ammonium base; Ion-exchange rule is that employing strongly basic anionic resin willBromination (or chlorination) quaternary ammonium salt aqueous solution carries out ion-exchange, thereby obtains quaternary ammonium base; Electroosmose process isIn diaphragm electrolytic cell, make quaternary ammonium salt and alkali carry out ion-exchange and by the moon in quaternary ammonium salt by barrier filmIon exchange is hydroxide ion, and then acquisition quaternary ammonium base. Wherein, the production cost of the precipitation method is higher,The quality of the product obtaining needs further to improve; Although the quality of product prepared by ion-exchangeBetter, production cost is also lower simultaneously, but in the time that ion exchange resin is regenerated, can produce a large amount ofWaste water, is unfavorable for environmental protection.
Electroosmose process is according to the kind difference of film using, can be divided into one pole EDBM method (, fromProton exchange method) and bipolar membrane electrodialysis method. Although one pole EDBM method can obtain coloryProduct, but the electrolysis installation using is comparatively complicated, and have accessory substance to produce. Bipolar membrane electrodialysis methodBe by under DC electric field effect, use Bipolar Membrane by hydrolytic dissociation, obtain respectively in the both sides of Bipolar MembraneH+And OH-Thereby, quaternary ammonium salt is converted into corresponding quaternary ammonium base. The equipment knot of bipolar membrane electrodialysis processStructure is comparatively simple, and does not substantially have accessory substance to produce.
