Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of high polymer material preparation, in particular to a preparation method of a methyl methacrylate polymer, the methyl methacrylate polymer and application thereof.
Background
Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), commonly known as organic glass, is a thermoplastic material with excellent performance, and has excellent optical performance, mechanical performance and weather resistance. The common production methods include bulk polymerization, suspension polymerization and solution polymerization, and the product forms obtained by different production processes are different from the application fields. The product has light weight, high light transmittance, high tensile strength and impact strength which are 8-20 times higher than those of inorganic glass; the stretching orientation is realized, and the impact strength is improved by 1.5 times; the paint has excellent ultraviolet resistance and atmospheric aging resistance, and can keep no yellowing for more than 10 years without adding any antioxidant; the glass transition temperature (Tg) is 90-110 ℃, and the decomposition temperature is more than 250 ℃. In addition, PMMA is a very beautiful material, has good processing performance, and is widely applied to the fields of aviation, building, agriculture and the like. Meanwhile, along with popularization and application in the fields of liquid crystal light guide plates, optical materials, high-end medical materials and the like, the demand on optical PMMA products is greatly increased, and the optical PMMA products are wider in the market. The optical-grade product has the characteristics of pure product, uniform molecular weight, low volatile component, high transparency, good heat resistance and the like, and the optical-grade PMMA material synthesized by adopting the bulk polymerization process is more and more concerned with the increase of the demand of high-end products at home and abroad.
The PMMA material is produced by adopting a bulk polymerization process, so that the industrial continuous production is facilitated, the equipment utilization rate is high, and the problem of sewage treatment is avoided; the colloid post-treatment has low energy consumption, and only a small amount of unreacted monomers need to be recycled. In a polymerization kettle with a powerful stirrer and a pneumatic control device, PMMA slurry after prepolymerization can be directly cast in a die, and is molded after secondary polymerization to produce products such as plates, bars, pipes and the like; or after high-temperature devolatilization by a screw, extruding, cutting and granulating to obtain the PMMA molding compound product.
Because PMMA has excellent solubility in the monomer, the polymerization system is uniform and transparent, and is homogeneous free radical polymerization, and a polymer product with high relative molecular weight and narrow distribution can be prepared by a bulk polymerization process. However, when the monomer conversion rate is more than 20% in a bulk polymerization system, the viscosity of the polymerization system is rapidly increased, which causes very difficult mass and heat transfer, difficult removal of heat generated by polymerization, and easy occurrence of local overheating and gel phenomenon, even implosion, resulting in increased operation difficulty and reduced comprehensive performance of products.

5. More importantly, the invention can also adjust the distribution of the copolymer structural units and the sequence structure thereof according to the requirements of special engineering plastics so as to meet the requirements of different markets.
