Detailed Description
In order to make the aforementioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention comprehensible, embodiments accompanied with examples are described in detail below.
In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention, but the present invention may be practiced in other ways than those specifically described and will be readily apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention, and therefore the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
Furthermore, reference herein to "one embodiment" or "an embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment is included in at least one implementation of the invention. The appearances of the phrase "in one embodiment" in various places in the specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment, nor are separate or alternative embodiments mutually exclusive of other embodiments.
Example 1:
preparation of triethoxytriethanolamine ether:
1mol of triethanolamine was dissolved in 4L of tetrahydrofuran and stirred, and then 3mol of ethanol and 400g of sodium hydroxide were added. The mixture was placed in a reaction kettle and etherified at 100 ℃ under reflux for 10 hours, then cooled to room temperature and filtered. The filtrate was distilled under vacuum to give a transparent liquid having a yellow color. Then, transferring the crude extracts to a reduced pressure distillation system, collecting fractions subjected to vacuum distillation at 90-120 ℃ under the pressure of 10mbar, and if the fractions at the temperature have color, carrying out reduced pressure distillation again until colorless and transparent liquid appears, thus obtaining pure triethoxy triethanolamine ether (TEAE). The reaction formula is as follows:
the physical and chemical properties of TEAE were measured in the Guangzhou analysis and testing center of China, including density, dynamic viscosity, research octane number, and distillation range. The results are shown in the following table:
TABLE 1 physicochemical Properties of TEAE
Example 2:
testing the performance of the TEAE and gasoline mixture:
sample preparation:
respectively mixing TETEA obtained by distillation with 97# gasoline according to the volume ratio of 5%, 7.5%, 10%, 15% and 20%, and marking for later use. Ethanol and gasoline were also mixed in the same ratio and used as a control sample.
Compatibility test and ignition test:
the TEAE-gasoline mixture at 20% by volume and the ethanol-gasoline mixture at 20% by volume were ignited and the flame and exotherm observed as shown in FIG. 1. As can be seen from fig. 1, the tea-gasoline mixture after ignition produces a yellow flame and gives off a large amount of heat. The flame is stable in the combustion process, and no peculiar smell or black smoke is generated. The flame color of the ethanol-gasoline mixture is dark and red, the flame temperature is low, and the low heat value of the ethanol is caused. The results of the experiments show that the combustion of the TEAE-gasoline mixture is good.
Mixing TETEA with 97# gasoline at different ratios (5%, 7.5%, 10%, 15%, 20%), after adding TETEA to the gasoline, there was no significant phase separation between the two solutions before stirring, but most of the TETEA was in the lower layer of the solution due to the greater density; stirring by shaking, and after the solution is kept still and stable, the TETEA and the gasoline mixture with different proportions are completely compatible. When stored above-20 ℃, the mixed solution is still in a stable and compatible state after being placed for a long time. However, when these mixtures were stored at-40 ℃ for several days, the mixtures were observed to delaminate and phase separate. This phenomenon may occur due to the tea adsorbing small amounts of water. The water produced during the esterification was not completely removed and some remained in the tea sample, forming a three-phase mixture of water, tea and gasoline, which resulted in phase separation of tea from gasoline at lower temperatures. When the moisture of the TEAE is completely removed, the TEAE can be used as fuel oil, namely when the TEAE is used as an environment-friendly gasoline cleaning combustion improver, the moisture of the TEAE needs to be removed.
Example 3:
heat value analysis:
the calorific value of TEAE and other oil samples was determined by the BH-III S oxygen bomb calorimeter of Kangwan.
TABLE 2 TEAE/gasoline and ethanol/gasoline heating values
As can be seen from Table 2, the combustion heat of TEAE is about 28kJ/g, which is higher than that of fuel ethanol by 25kJ/g, and the combustion heat of TEAE is about 2/3 of 97# gasoline. After the TEAE is mixed into the gasoline, the combustion heat is slightly reduced generally, the reduction amplitude is about 2-5 kJ/g, and the reduction amplitude is directly related to the proportion of the TEAE added into the gasoline. In different ratio ethanol/gasoline mixtures, the heat of combustion of the fuel decreases as the ratio of ethanol increases. Wherein, the gasoline (E-5) containing 5 percent of ethanol by volume generates the highest combustion heat which can reach 95 percent of the combustion heat of the gasoline. However, in the various proportions of TEAE-gasoline blends, the heat of combustion of the blend gradually decreased as the TEAE content increased, with the 20% volume TEAE blend burning approximately 90% of the gasoline heat of combustion. These results indicate that TEAE has a synergistic effect on gasoline combustion without significantly affecting heat release while contributing to smooth combustion.
Analysis combining these results shows that TEAE can be used as an additive for gasoline, and exhibits stable compatibility and potential for development and application.
In conclusion, the environment-friendly gasoline cleaning combustion improver (TEAE) prepared by the invention is an oil-soluble colorless transparent liquid, and has low solubility in water. Compared with other environment-friendly gasoline clean combustion improver, the gasoline clean combustion improver has higher octane number, the Research Octane Number (RON) of the gasoline clean combustion improver can reach 118, and the Motor Octane Number (MON) is also higher than 100, so the gasoline clean combustion improver has good antiknock property. TEAE has better compatibility with both automobile engines and gasoline, which is beneficial to prolonging the service life of the engine. The synthesis cost of TEAE is low, and the method is simple and has strong social and economic values.
The environment-friendly gasoline cleaning combustion improver (TEAE) prepared by the invention can completely remove carbon deposition in an automobile engine, plays a role in cleaning a fuel system, can also play a role in resisting detonation, and enhances the power performance of the engine; the gasoline atomization effect is improved, the gasoline utilization rate is improved, fuel oil is saved, and the effects of lubrication, corrosion prevention, rust prevention, emulsion breaking and engine protection can be achieved; in addition, the additive of the invention can effectively reduce the noise generated in the running process of the engine, reduce the abrasion of the cylinder, prolong the service life of the engine and greatly reduce the emission of harmful substances in black smoke.
