Compared with the prior art, the invention has the beneficial effects that:
according to the preparation method, the second monomer and the third monomer are introduced to change the main chain structure of the polyvinyl acetate copolymer, so that the polyvinyl alcohol obtained after alcoholysis of the polyvinyl acetate copolymer has the performance of low melting point, and the production requirement is met.
Meanwhile, the polymerization reaction is discontinuous batch polymerization, and because the dosage of the initiator in the early stage is small, the possibility that the bulk polymerization mode of the VAM, the second monomer, the third monomer and the initiator in the traditional process can generate implosion and even explosion because heat is not transferred out is avoided.
Compared with the traditional belt continuous process, the adopted batch alcoholysis method does not need the subsequent crushing, and has low ash content, high purity and short flow. Meanwhile, the reason of the two-step alcoholysis is that methyl acetate is generated by one-step alcoholysis in the kettle-type alcoholysis process and consumes the alcoholysis catalyst, so that the alcoholysis degree in one step cannot reach more than 95.0 mol%, and the alcoholysis degree in the second step can reach high alcoholysis degree even more than 99.0 mol% after methyl acetate is removed by centrifugation in the alcoholysis.
The low-melting-point polyvinyl alcohol produced by chemical modification through copolymerization can be blown or injected by using traditional plastic processing equipment, so that the processability of the polyvinyl alcohol is greatly improved.
