Description

Devolatilization device
Technical Field
The invention relates to chemical equipment, in particular to a devolatilizer.
Background
Polymerization is one of the most commonly used processes in chemical engineering. It is generally very difficult to continue the conversion after a certain conversion has been reached in the polymerization. Unconverted monomers need to be removed from the polymer to obtain a pure polymer. It is generally desired that the residual monomer content in the final product be not greater than 800 ppm. This process of removing unconverted monomers is known as devolatilization. A small amount of polymer solvent is incidentally removed at the time of devolatilization. There are various conventional devolatilization methods, such as a thermal flash evaporation method, a thermal agitation method, a screw extrusion method, and the like.

The polymerized material contains polystyrene, styrene and a small amount of ethylbenzene. The material is added from the material inlet in a hot melting state and then is added into the material distributor; the material in the material distributor is sprayed out from each small hole under the action of a certain pressure and is dispersed into fine liquid drops, so that the volatilization interface of the material is increased by tens of times. Styrene and ethylbenzene are light hydrocarbon substances, have a lower vaporization point than polystyrene, and are volatilized from liquid droplets in a gas form. The volatilized gas rises upward through the gaps around the material distribution pipes to the top and flows away from the gas phase outlet. The polystyrene droplets from which the monomer and solvent have been removed are collected downwards to form a pool of liquid polystyrene, the polystyrene in the pool being continuously drawn off from the material outlet.
