Description

Process for preparing isosorbide-containing polyesters
Technical Field
The invention relates to a method for preparing polyester containing isosorbide by using an improved catalyst, which achieves the effects of reducing the reaction temperature, reducing the monomer decomposition and improving the retention ratio of isosorbide monomers which are difficult to participate in the reaction in the final polymer by changing the formula of the catalyst.
Background
1: 4; 3: 6-dianhydro-D-sorbitol, also known as isosorbide, is a polyester raw material that can be obtained by hydrogenation and acid-catalyzed dehydration of renewable resources such as sugar, starch, etc., and it can be polymerized with ethylene glycol and terephthalic acid to obtain polyethylene terephthalate co-isosorbide (PEIT). The polyester possesses a higher glass transition temperature (Tg) than conventional PET, which makes it useful in products such as bottles, heat-filled containers, films, thick sheets, fibers, wire, and optical articles. In these fields, the appearance is highly required, and isosorbide monomers are highly likely to form by-products with deteriorated color when reacted at high temperature, so that lowering the temperature for synthesizing PEIT is helpful to improve the product performance. Meanwhile, the isosorbide monomer is quite expensive relative to other polyester raw materials, and the behavior of forming a color-forming byproduct by heating in the synthesis process can cause extra loss of the isosorbide monomer, so that the proportion of isosorbide chain segments remained in the final polymer is far less than that of the input isosorbide, the extra cost is increased, and the economical efficiency of the polyester production is influenced.
Figure BDA0001132051390000011
CN99805312 reports a polyester production process using isosorbide as comonomer, and reports that a PEIT polymer having a logarithmic reduced viscosity of 0.65dl/g can be obtained by a direct synthesis process using an antimony, titanium or germanium catalyst for the synthesis of PEIT having a high reduced viscosity. The polycondensation reaction temperature of the polymerization is up to 275-285 ℃, and the retention rate of the isosorbide unit is lower than 60%.
CN03819324 reports a manufacturing method of a terephthalic acid-ethylene glycol-isosorbide copolyester polymer, which is characterized in that a light-colored PEIT polymer is prepared, a germanium dioxide catalyst is used, and cobalt acetate, Clariant @ RSB violet and the like are added for color mixing to obtain a product, namely the Hunter b value is less than 2. No mention is made in the patent of using a catalyst to lower the temperature required for the reaction, the retention of isosorbide units in the synthesized polymer being around 70%.
CN201110257448 reports a method for preparing PEIT by using a titanium catalyst, which is characterized in that an inner hydroxyl group and an outer hydroxyl group of isosorbide are respectively modified by using a halogenation reaction and p-toluenesulfonic acid chloride, the modified isosorbide can fully react with terephthalic acid, and the proportion of biologically-derived carbon in polyester can reach 33% -100%. The synthesis of the polyesters of the patent differs greatly from conventional polyesters and, although not mentioned herein, the yield and manufacturing cost of isosorbide must be affected by the use of multiple organic reactions for chemical modification of isosorbide. The process of this patent requires the use of solid state polymerization to achieve the target intrinsic viscosity.
None of the above reports report a preparation method in which a catalyst having a promoting effect on the reaction of isosorbide with terephthalic acid and an esterification product of terephthalic acid with a diol is used to obtain a desired molecular weight at a relatively low reaction temperature. The invention discloses a high-efficiency catalyst suitable for preparing isosorbide-containing polyester at a lower temperature and a method for preparing isosorbide-containing polyester by using the high-efficiency catalyst. Through the technical optimization of the invention, the polyethylene terephthalate co-isosorbide with isosorbide retention rate higher than 50% and intrinsic viscosity higher than 0.40dl/g can be prepared.
