Detailed Description
In order to more clearly illustrate the invention, the invention is further described below with reference to preferred embodiments and the accompanying drawings. Similar parts in the figures are denoted by the same reference numerals. It is to be understood by persons skilled in the art that the following detailed description is illustrative and not restrictive, and is not to be taken as limiting the scope of the invention.
First part of the research on the production of poly-L-lactic acid by ring-opening polymerization of L-lactide
The production of the poly-L-lactic acid can adopt a method of melt polycondensation and solid phase polycondensation to generate the poly-L-lactic acid with higher molecular weight, and can also utilize L-lactide ring-opening polymerization to produce the poly-L-lactic acid with higher molecular weight. In the process of producing poly-L-lactic acid by melt polycondensation and solid phase polycondensation, a byproduct, namely crude L-lactide, is generated in the melt polycondensation process, but the crude L-lactide needs to be purified and then can be subjected to ring opening polymerization to produce high molecular weight poly-L-lactic acid. The raw material L-lactide used in the present invention is L-lactide produced by L-lactic acid (see example 1 in the second section in particular), but is also suitable for producing poly L-lactic acid by purifying crude L-lactide, which is a by-product of a melt polycondensation process, as a raw material.
1. Effect of the amount of catalyst (mixture of zirconium oxide and molybdenum Glycine carboxylate in a 2:1 ratio as catalyst) on the molecular weight of Poly-L-lactic acid produced by Ring opening polymerization of L-lactide
Under the conditions of reaction pressure less than or equal to 10pa and the same conditions of reaction time, reaction temperature and the like, the influence of different catalyst dosages on the molecular weight of the poly-L-lactic acid is tested, and the result is shown in figure 1.
As can be seen from FIG. 1, as the amount of the catalyst (percentage of the mass of L-lactide) increases, the molecular weight of the product poly-L-lactic acid increases and then decreases, because the amount of the catalyst increases, the number of coordination sites with L-lactide increases, and the molecular weight of the poly-L-lactic acid decreases. And comprehensively considering the generation efficiency, selecting three indexes of 0.08 percent, 0.1 percent and 0.12 percent of catalyst dosage, and carrying out orthogonal test by combining the reaction time and the reaction temperature.
2. Influence of polymerization reaction temperature on molecular weight of poly-L-lactic acid product
The effect of different reaction temperatures on the weight-average molecular weight of the poly L-lactic acid was examined under the same conditions of reaction pressure of 10Pa or less, reaction time, amount of catalyst added (a mixture of zirconium oxide and molybdenum glycinate in a ratio of 2:1 as catalyst), etc., and the results are shown in FIG. 2.
As can be seen from FIG. 2, the mass of the poly L-lactic acid molecule increases first and then decreases with the increase of the reaction temperature, because when the reaction temperature is too high, the thermal degradation speed of the polymer is accelerated, and any part of the macromolecular chain is broken, resulting in the decrease of the molecular weight of the poly L-lactic acid. Comprehensively considering, the orthogonal test is carried out by selecting 155 ℃, 160 ℃ and 165 ℃, and the addition amount and reaction time of the catalyst.
3. Effect of polymerization time on the molecular weight of the product Poly-L-lactic acid
The effect of different reaction times on the molecular weight of poly-L-lactic acid was tested under the same conditions at a reaction pressure of 10Pa or less, and the results are shown in FIG. 3.
As can be seen from FIG. 3, the molecular weight of poly-L-lactic acid increases and then gradually decreases as the polymerization time increases. This is because the molecular weight of poly-L-lactic acid increases with time, and after reaching a certain value, the number of L-lactides in the reaction system decreases, which leads to a predominant depolymerization reaction, and a part of high molecular weight linear poly-L-lactic acid molecules are broken, resulting in a decrease in the molecular weight of poly-L-lactic acid. In order to determine the optimal process and the comprehensive production efficiency, 15h, 20h and 25h are selected for orthogonal tests.
Combined design of L-lactide ring-opening polymerization process index
The reaction pressure is less than or equal to 10pa as a control constant, the addition amount of a catalyst (a mixture of zirconium oxide and molybdenum glycinate in a ratio of 2:1 is used as the catalyst), the reaction time and the reaction temperature are independent variables, and the weight average molecular weight M of the product poly L-lactic acidWAnalysis was performed for dependent variables.
Test results and significance test thereof
In the experiment, three main factors influencing the ring-opening polymerization process of the L-lactide are determined, three levels of the three factors are determined through a large number of experiments, 3 levels of the three factors are designed according to the center combination design principle of Box-Behnken, and the experiment results are shown in table 1 and table 2.

TABLE 2 Box-Behnken test results
Figure BDA0001819217480000052
Figure BDA0001819217480000061
Regression fitting was performed on the test data in table 2 by stepwise regression using Design expert statistical software, and analysis of variance and significance tests were performed. It is determined that the influence of each influencing factor on the molecular weight of the product poly-L-lactic acid is not a simple linear relationship. According to a response surface diagram and contour line analysis, determining the optimal point of the three factors, selecting the starting point in the range of the model, optimizing by using a rapid rise method according to the model, and finally obtaining the maximum poly-L-lactic acid molecular weight when determining that the molecular weight is A0.1%, B160 ℃ and C20 h.

The optimized process for producing the poly-L-lactic acid by the ring-opening polymerization of the L-lactide is obtained through the experiments: namely, the reaction pressure is less than or equal to 10Pa, the adding amount of a catalyst (a mixture of zirconium oxide and molybdenum glycinate according to the ratio of 2:1 is used as the catalyst) accounts for 0.1 percent of the mass of the L-lactide, the reaction time is 20h, and the reaction temperature is 160 ℃.
