Description

Method for preparing food-grade butylbenzene or butadiene solution polymerized rubber
Technical Field
The invention relates to a method for preparing food-grade rubber, in particular to a method for preparing food-grade solution polymerized styrene-butadiene rubber or butadiene rubber.
Background
As is well known, most of the food grade rubbers currently used in bubble gum, chewing gum, and medical and health, food packaging, etc. are natural rubber or emulsion polymerized styrene-butadiene rubber which is further purified.
However, the purified natural rubber is food additive grade rubber, which is expensive and occupies considerable land resources for production. The synthetic rubber which is purified is not pure and harmless because a large amount of toxic and harmful chemical raw materials are added in the production, and the cost is higher. For example, food-grade emulsion polymerized styrene-butadiene rubber purified and produced by Goodyear company in America has light brown yellow color, and contains obvious impurity peak of emulsifier fatty acid salt through infrared spectrum analysis, and has peculiar smell in taste.
Although the solution polymerization (solution polymerization) rubber does not contain fatty acid salt impurities, the high-temperature copolymerization products without adding polar additives, such as solution polymerization styrene-butadiene rubber, contain a polystyrene block structure and have poor rubber performance; when the polar structure regulator is added to produce the copolymer rubber, the copolymerization temperature is relatively low and is usually within 110 ℃, so that the conversion of styrene monomer is not enough, and styrene with high toxicity has certain residue in the rubber. Meanwhile, cyclohexane is usually adopted as the copolymerization solvent of the glue, and benzene is also used as the solvent in the US patent 3,944,528, and the subsequent treatment and removal are difficult, so that benzene, cyclohexane and other solvents with high toxicity are easy to remain in the product glue.
Particularly, the coupling process of the solution polymerized styrene butadiene rubber stannic chloride which is generally popularized and produced in various countries in the world at present introduces metallic tin harmful impurities, and is unsatisfactory as food-grade rubber colloid. The synthetic rubber nickel polybutadiene produced by a solution polymerization method using transition metal as a catalyst has residual metal chemicals in the rubber which threaten human health and is not suitable for being used as food-grade rubber.
In recent years, some enterprises in China intend to produce food-grade rubber by adopting a method of chopping and washing industrial emulsion polymerized styrene-butadiene rubber, so that harmful organic matters among molecular chains of high-molecular polymers are substantially difficult to remove, and the complicated process increases the cost.
Chinese patent application No. CN1454910A (application No. 03140520.7) relates to a preparation method of food-grade butadiene or butadiene and styrene solution polymerized rubber, which adopts C4-C8 mixed saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon as a solvent in the presence of an organic lithium initiator and a polar additive, can completely polymerize an organic matter consisting of units such as carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and the like of a rubber macromolecular chain as a crosslinking coupling agent, adopts food-grade antioxidant BHT as an antioxidant, and polymerizes butadiene and styrene or butadiene at relatively high monomer concentration and polymerization temperature to prepare the food-grade rubber. The method is simple and efficient, and the safety is higher than the FCC international standard. However, at present, petrochemical enterprises are becoming large-scale at home and abroad, and the production scale of large devices is relatively small, so that the rapid industrialization is difficult to realize, and the production flexibility is not provided.
Moreover, the inventor of the application researches on safety and discovers that the copolymerization initiator butyl lithium is damaged by trace water, oxygen, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and other carbonyl compound impurities contained in the raw materials (including protective nitrogen in contact with the reaction) for the anionic copolymerization of the butylbenzene, so that the conversion rate fluctuation, the molecular weight change and even the polymerization are not caused; more seriously, for the production of food-grade rubber, safety and sanitation indexes are obviously damaged, and even if the reaction conversion rate test result is 100%, the raw materials and impurities in the system can promote the residue of chemicals in the product, especially the residue of styrene with high toxicity.
The inventor thinks that, can reach the food level rubber of gum, bubble gum raw materials standard, but wide application in children's toys raw materials, guarantee children are healthy to grow up, but more wide application in food machinery, packing promote that many trades accord with sanitary standard, green. Therefore, the feeding ratio of the butylbenzene is diversified, and the Mooney viscosity of the product is controlled to be 30-150 so as to adapt to different market requirements.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention is a result of further research on the basis of the invention patent CN1454910A, which integrates common solvents for industrial anion production, adopts raffinate oil or hydrogenated gasoline mixed solvent system, and realizes that the production device can flexibly switch and produce different anion copolymer varieties, such as industrial styrene butadiene rubber, SBS, styrene butadiene copolymer containing styrene block, high elongation SBS containing butadiene block, 1, 2-polybutadiene rubber and the like. The method of the invention is convenient for enlarging production conditions and reducing production cost; correspondingly, the food-grade rubber can be produced on SBS and industrial solution polymerized butadiene styrene rubber devices without adding solvent matching equipment such as a pipeline storage tank and the like. The invention limits the purity of the raw materials, improves the product quality, lightens the load of washing and other conventional methods for further reducing and eliminating toxic chemicals, achieves the high purity of the product and can produce various products by strict raw material refining and drying measures.
The inventor of the present application found in practice that the hexane fraction in the mixed solvent of cyclohexane and hexane used as the solvent of SBS can be completely replaced by inexpensive narrow-cut raffinate. The n-hexane is difficult to purify in production and quite expensive, the raffinate oil is rich in source and low in cost, and the cyclohexane and the raffinate oil can be prepared in any required proportion to meet the requirements of different solubilities, heat capacities, solvent freezing points and the like. According to the method of the invention, a mixed solvent composed of 10-100 wt% of distillate raffinate oil at 55-85 ℃ or hydrogenated gasoline and 0-90 wt% of cyclohexane is adopted, so that the method can be suitable for producing different rubber species such as food-grade solution polymerized styrene-butadiene rubber, styrene-butadiene block copolymer SBS, industrial solution polymerized styrene-butadiene rubber, butadiene homopolymer and the like with a low-cost solvent, thereby enlarging the source of raw materials, and the obtained product is more suitable for the food sanitation requirement, ensures the quality of the product, and has various indexes superior to national standard and FCC international standard.
The invention further verifies the technical characteristics of the solution polymerized styrene-butadiene rubber, and styrene-butadiene rubber with different styrene-butadiene ratios can be obtained by flexibly adjusting the feeding proportion of styrene and butadiene. The current emulsion polymerized styrene-butadiene production technology has difficulty in controlling the feeding proportion, for example, the preparation of chewing gum base needs to be prepared by mixing 25/75 and 50/50 food-grade emulsion polymerized styrene-butadiene rubber. The method can directly synthesize the required rubber, not only ensure the quality of the gum base, but also simplify the production procedure of the gum base chewing gum, and can also meet the requirements of different fields such as the manufacturing industry of nontoxic toys for children and the like.
Tests prove that impurities in the raffinate oil synthesis system and raw materials not only destroy the reaction, but also increase the chemical residue of the synthesized raw materials of the synthesized product, particularly increase the contents of styrene and lithium haxate, and easily cause the quality of the product to be unqualified. Therefore, the synthesis process needs to strictly control the refining of trace impurities contained in the raw materials. In particular, the solvent used in a large amount must be refined and dried so that the water content is 10ppm or less, so that the total content of impurities (including water, oxygen, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide) in the reaction system is less than 20 ppm.
Cyclohexane is used as a solvent in the butylbenzene anion reaction, and 10-30% of hexane is prepared for antifreezing. The solvent used in the Chinese invention patent CN1454910A is C4-C8 mixed saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon, preferably platinum reformed raffinate oil or hydrogenated gasoline with the temperature of 55-85 ℃, and the freezing point is very low. The inventor of the application can prepare better food-grade rubber products and prevent freezing by adopting a mixed solvent consisting of 10-100 wt% of 55-85 ℃ distillate raffinate oil or hydrogenated gasoline and 0-90 wt% of cyclohexane, and particularly can directly share solvent raw materials and equipment with the production of SBS, industrial butadiene styrene rubber, high vinyl butadiene rubber and other polymer materials by adopting the mixed solvent of 67.8-68.8 ℃ narrow distillate raffinate oil to realize multi-variety production. The invention can simply and conveniently adjust the feeding amount of butadiene and styrene, and further directly synthesize the rubber containing styrene with different proportions, thereby solving the current production situation that the two proportions of rubber are required to be prepared in the preparation of the gum base of the chewing gum and simplifying the production process. The large-scale device and multi-variety industrialized flexible production can be realized, and remarkable benefits can be obtained.
The invention provides a method for preparing food-grade butylbenzene or butadiene solution polymerized rubber, which comprises the steps of carrying out active anion polymerization of butadiene and styrene or butadiene in an inert solvent in the presence of a polar additive by taking organic lithium as an initiator in a high-purity nitrogen atmosphere, then carrying out coupling by using a coupling agent, and then carrying out coagulation and drying to obtain a polymer, wherein the weight ratio of butadiene to styrene is 100-25: 0-75, monomer concentration of 2-70g total monomer/100 ml solvent; wherein the organolithium initiator is n-butyllithium, sec-butyllithium, isobutyllithium, tert-butyllithium or dilithium; the coupling agent is divinylbenzene or diethyl adipate; the polar additive is tetrahydrofuran, ethylene glycol dimethyl ether or diethylene glycol dimethyl ether; the inert solvent is: raffinate oil with a boiling range of 55-100 ℃; hydrogenated gasoline with a boiling range of 55-100 ℃; or a mixed solvent consisting of 10-100 wt% of raffinate oil with a boiling range of 55-100 ℃ and 0-90 wt% of cyclohexane; wherein the molar ratio of the total monomer, the polar additive, the coupling agent and the organic lithium initiator is 100-10000: 0-500: 0-2: 1; the polymerization temperature is 60-180 ℃.
Preferably, the raffinate or hydrogenated gasoline boiling range is from 55 to 85 ℃ in the inert solvent. Preferably, for facilitating the industrial mass production of other types of rubber such as SBS, industrial butylbenzene, vinyl polybutadiene, etc., the raffinate in the mixed solvent is further preferably a narrow cut raffinate with a boiling range of 67.8-68.8 deg.C, and has a composition (by weight) such as, but not limited to, n-hexane 85.86%, methylcyclohexane 7.99%, 2-methylpentane 0.15%, 3-methylpentane 4.75%, and cyclohexane 1.25%. The ratio of this narrow cut raffinate oil to cyclohexane in the mixed solvent is preferably 30-10: 70-90.
In the preparation method of the food-grade styrene-butadiene or butadiene solution polymerized rubber, the polymerization comprises homopolymerization and copolymerization, the polymer refers to homopolymer and copolymer, and the solution polymerized rubber refers to rubber polymer prepared by solution polymerization in the presence of a solvent. The raffinate oil refers to the part of oil left after an oil refinery extracts aromatic hydrocarbons from the platinum reformed gasoline, and is hydrogenated and saturated in the platinum reforming process, generally referred to as raffinate oil for short, and has the same property as hydrogenated gasoline. Among them, no matter whether raffinate oil, hydrogenated gasoline or mixed solvent is used, since the solvent is used in the largest amount among all the solution polymerization raw materials, the total amount of impurities contained therein is the largest, and the residual influence on chemicals in the product is most significant, it is necessary to limit the content of impurities (including trace water, oxygen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, etc.) in the raw materials, for example, the water content in the inert solvent used in a large amount must be limited to 10ppm or less, more preferably 5ppm or less, so that the total content of impurities (including water, oxygen, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide) in the raw materials used for the reaction (including reaction monomers, inert solvent, polar additive, initiator, coupling agent, high purity nitrogen, etc.) is less than 20 ppm.
The amount of inert solvent used during the polymerization depends on the desired monomer concentration, which is generally from 2 to 70g of total monomers per 100ml of solvent, preferably from 5 to 50g of total monomers per 100ml of solvent, more preferably from 10 to 25g of total monomers per 100ml of solvent. The total monomer referred to herein means the total amount of butadiene and styrene or butadiene.
The butadiene and the styrene are both polymer-grade monomers and are dried and subjected to impurity removal treatment before use. The feed ratio of butadiene and styrene is generally from 100 to 25 by weight: 0 to 75; preferably 100 to 40: 0-60. When two monomers of butadiene and styrene are copolymerized, the product is called food-grade solution polymerized styrene-butadiene rubber. When the only polymerized monomer is butadiene, the product is food grade soluble polybutadiene rubber. The styrene feeding amount is increased, the product plasticity is enhanced, and the product is styrene-butadiene resin when the styrene content is more than 75 percent, which is not discussed in the present discussion.
The organolithium initiator may be generally an alkyllithium, for example, a monolithium such as methyllithium, ethyllithium, n-butyllithium, isobutyllithium, sec-butyllithium, tert-butyllithium, pentyllithium, cyclohexyllithium, vinyllithium, propenyl lithium, and a dilithium such as tetramethyldilithium, pentamethyldilithium, hexamethylenedilithium, decamethyldilithium and the like, preferably n-butyllithium, isobutyllithium, tert-butyllithium, sec-butyllithium or dilithium, more preferably n-butyllithium. The amount of organolithium initiator used can be determined according to the process requirements, and generally the molar ratio of the total monomers (referring to the total amount of butadiene or butadiene and styrene) to the organolithium initiator is 100-10000.
The polar additive is generally an ether or a tertiary amine having a lewis basic property, such as ethylene glycol dimethyl ether, ethylene glycol diethyl ether, ethylene glycol dibutyl ether, diethylene glycol dimethyl ether, diethylene glycol diethyl ether, diethylene glycol dibutyl ether, triethylene glycol dimethyl ether, triethylene glycol diethyl ether, tetraethylene glycol dimethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, 2-methoxymethyltetrahydrofuran, 2, 5-dimethoxymethyltetrahydrofuran, and the like, and tetrahydrofuran, ethylene glycol dimethyl ether, diethylene glycol dimethyl ether are preferred, and tetrahydrofuran is more preferred. The polar additives may be used alone or in combination of two or more, and the mixing ratio thereof is not critical and may be any ratio. The molar ratio of the polar additive to the organolithium initiator is 0-500.
The coupling agent is polyvinyl compound, halide, ether, ester and the like composed of elements such as carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and the like, such as divinylbenzene, diethyl adipate, silicon tetravinyl, tetrachloroethane, silicon tetrachloride and the like, and the preferred coupling agent is divinylbenzene or diethyl adipate. In the solution polymerization of butadiene or butylbenzene, a proper organic coupling agent composed of elements such as carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and the like is selected and completely copolymerized into rubber molecules, so that the pollution of the solution polymerization coupling agent such as tin tetrachloride and the like to the product can be avoided, and the influence of raw material chemicals for synthesizing the high polymer rubber is further reduced. The molar ratio of the coupling agent to the organolithium initiator is 0-2.
In the process described herein, a food grade antioxidant such as 2, 6-di-t-butyl-4-methylphenol or 2, 6-di-t-butyl-p-cresol (referred to as BHT) is further added to the reaction system after the polymerization reaction is completed. The amount of the antioxidant added is 0.05-1%, preferably 0.1-0.5% of the weight of the polymer.
In the process described herein, a terminating agent is used after the polymerization, said terminating agent being a commonly used anionic polymerization terminating agent such as water, ethanol or isopropanol, etc., preferably water or ethanol.
The polymerization temperature is 60 to 180 ℃, preferably 80 to 140 ℃. As mentioned above, since the polymerization process of the present inventionIn the middle by C4-C8The mixed saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon is used as a solvent to carry out a solution polymerization process of butadiene or butadiene and styrene, anion active polymerization can be carried out at a higher temperature (60-180 ℃), the polymerization reaction rate is high and stable, the monomer conversion rate is close to 100 percent, the structure of the polymer is not changed, and the phenomenon of sudden polymerization overpressure is avoided, so that the polymerization reaction efficiency and stability are improved, the residual probability of toxic monomers in rubber is greatly eliminated, and the solution polymerization process is favorable for stable and high-quality product quality. The polymerization pressure is not critical as long as the polymerization reaction system is carried out in a liquid phase, and the polymerization pressure is usually 0.2 to 0.5 MPa.
The polymerization reactor used in the method for preparing food grade rubber of the present invention may be any reactor or reaction vessel suitable for solution polymerization, such as a stainless steel polymerization reactor (tank) with a stirrer.
