According to the method, the condensed fraction can be automatically controlled to flow back and spray back to the reaction kettle or the temperature of the heat exchange interlayer can be automatically controlled through the temperature switch and the temperature sensor arranged in the reaction kettle.
According to the method, the condition of a reaction system in the reaction kettle can be observed through an inner window arranged on the reaction kettle, and when white monomers are sublimated and adhered to the kettle wall in the reaction kettle, the condensed fraction is manually controlled to flow back and spray back to the reaction kettle or the temperature of the heat exchange interlayer is controlled.
In a further alternative embodiment, the method employs a synthesis apparatus as described herein above.
The production process of thermotropic liquid crystalline polymers using the synthesis apparatus as described above in this application is as follows:
the monomers were added to reaction vessel 1 and dissolved in a solvent while a certain amount of catalyst was added. Wherein the monomer is one or more selected from p-hydroxybenzoic acid, 6-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid, hydroquinone, biphenol, p-hydroxyamine and derivatives thereof; the catalyst is acetate of any one or more of calcium, iron, zinc and selenium. And (3) heating the reaction materials in the reaction kettle 1 to 80-150 ℃ by adopting heat conduction oil of internal circulation in the heat exchange interlayer 14 to perform acetylation reaction. In the acetylation process, the acetylation process is observed through an inner view window, if the white monomer in the reaction kettle is sublimated and adhered to the kettle wall, the first temperature control switch 5 is manually opened at the moment, the liquid in the liquid storage tank 3 enters the manual switch communication channel through the metering pump 4 and is reserved to the sprayer 12, the sprayed solvent washes the monomer back into the reaction kettle 1 to continue to react, and the accuracy of monomer formula design is guaranteed.
After the acetylation is finished, the temperature of a reaction system in the reaction kettle 1 is raised to 200-350 ℃ for polymerization deacidification reaction, and distilled acetic acid is condensed and refluxed to a liquid storage tank 3 through a condenser 2. Along with the continuous distillation of acetic acid, the concentration of monomers in the system is gradually increased, the polymerization reaction is accelerated, the heat release is severe, the temperature in the reaction kettle 1 is quickly raised, and the accurate temperature control of the reaction system is difficult to realize by simply controlling the temperature of the oil bath. When the temperature of the reaction system detected by the temperature sensor 13 is higher than a set value, the temperature control switch receives a signal and automatically turns on the switch, so that the acetic acid solvent which is stored in the liquid storage tank 3 and cooled by the condenser 2 is sprayed into the reaction kettle 1 through the third pipeline and the sprayer 12 to reduce the reaction temperature; meanwhile, the second temperature control switch on the cooling assembly 15 is turned on after receiving the signal from the temperature sensor 13, and the cooling assembly is enabled to work, so that cooling water is introduced into the cooling pipe, and heat transfer oil is subjected to heat exchange and temperature reduction. In the production of the liquid crystal polyester as described above in the present application, the heat transfer oil is modified terphenyl, and the spraying solvent is preferably acetic acid or acetic anhydride.
Example 2
1657.4g of p-hydroxybenzoic acid, 752.72g of 2-hydroxy-6-naphthoic acid, 220.2g of hydroquinone, 332.2g of terephthalic acid, 8.4g of potassium acetate (polymerization catalyst), 11g of p-toluenesulfonic acid (acetylation catalyst), and 2500g of acetic anhydride were charged into a reaction vessel.
The reactants are mixed and stirred evenly, and then acetylation reaction is carried out for 2.5h under nitrogen atmosphere and reflux at 155 ℃. When the monomer is sublimated and separated out on the kettle wall, cooling water is introduced into the cooling assembly for oil bath cooling, and meanwhile, the sprayer sprays solvent to wash the monomer back into the reaction kettle for continuous reaction. The temperature was then raised further to 350 ℃ over 5h, during which the polymerization was gradually allowed to proceed mildly by controlling the reaction temperature rise rate by means of cooling water flux in the cooling tube and a shower. The viscosity of the reaction system is increased along with the gradual distillation of acetic acid and excessive acetic anhydride, when the system begins to generate a rod climbing or wire drawing phenomenon, the reaction is stopped, and reactants are discharged and granulated from the bottom of the polymerization container in a multi-strand strip shape.
The detection proves that the product has light color, uniform quality, high strength and a melting point of 307.5 ℃.
Comparative example
1657.4g of p-hydroxybenzoic acid, 752.72g of 2-hydroxy-6-naphthoic acid, 220.2g of hydroquinone, 332.2g of terephthalic acid, 8.4g of potassium acetate (polymerization catalyst), 11g of p-toluenesulfonic acid (acetylation catalyst), and 2500g of acetic anhydride were charged into a reaction vessel.
After the reactants are mixed and stirred uniformly, acetylation reaction is carried out for 2.5 hours under the nitrogen atmosphere and at the temperature of 155 ℃, a cooling pipe is not adopted to cool the heat conducting oil or a sprayer is not adopted to spray a solvent, a large amount of crystals are separated out on the wall of the kettle at the moment, and even part of the crystals enter a condenser, so that the mole ratio design of the monomers is directly influenced.
The temperature is increased to 350 ℃ within 5h, in the process, a cooling pipe is not adopted to cool the heat conducting oil or a sprayer is not adopted to spray a solvent, the temperature rising rate of the reaction system is increased along with the increase of the polymerization degree, so that the system generates a large amount of smoke small particles, and low polymer small molecules are sublimated. The reaction is stopped, reactants are taken out from the bottom of the polymerization container, the product is locally carbonized due to overhigh temperature, and a large amount of unreacted monomers are attached to the wall of the kettle or even a condenser, so that the molar ratio of the monomers is extremely unbalanced, and the product quality is seriously influenced. In addition, the polymer had a melting point of 267.65 ℃ and a low strength, indicating a low molecular weight.
Through embodiment 1 and comparative example 1, the design that a sprayer and a reaction kettle heat exchange interlayer are added to a reaction kettle effectively inhibits the monomer precipitation in the acetylation process, and simultaneously solves the problems of material temperature runaway and even carbonization in the high-temperature polymerization process. The preparation method is simple, the polymerization reaction is mild, mild and controllable, and the method is suitable for producing high-performance liquid crystal polymers.
The foregoing embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and utilities of the present invention and are not intended to limit the invention. Any person skilled in the art can modify or change the above-mentioned embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.

8. The method of claim 7, wherein the monomer is one or more selected from the group consisting of p-hydroxybenzoic acid, 6-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid, hydroquinone, biphenol, p-hydroxyaniline and derivatives thereof; the catalyst is acetate of any one or more of calcium, iron, zinc and selenium.
9. The method of claim 7, wherein the condensed distillate is automatically controlled to flow back and spray to the reaction kettle or the temperature of the heat exchange interlayer is automatically controlled by a temperature switch and a temperature sensor arranged in the reaction kettle; and/or observing the condition of a reaction system in the reaction kettle through an inner window arranged on the reaction kettle, and manually controlling the temperature of the condensed fraction reflux spray back to the reaction kettle or the heat exchange interlayer when white monomers are sublimated and adhered to the kettle wall in the reaction kettle.
10. A method according to any one of claims 7 to 9, wherein a synthesis apparatus according to any one of claims 1 to 5 is used.
