Description

Production system and method for producing EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate) by multi-kettle-tubular series-parallel continuous polymerization
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of EVA resin production, and particularly relates to a production system and a method for producing EVA by multi-kettle-tubular series-parallel continuous polymerization.
Background
Ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer resin (EVA) is formed by copolymerization of nonpolar ethylene monomer and strong polar vinyl acetate monomer (VAc). Compared with Polyethylene (PE), the VAc monomer is introduced into the molecular chain segment, so that the crystallinity of the polymer is greatly reduced, and the aging resistance, impact resistance, compatibility and flexibility of the polymer are obviously enhanced. The EVA products have larger performance difference due to different VAc composition contents in the copolymer, and the VAc content of common EVA products is lower than 40%.
At present, the common production processes of domestic and foreign EVA products include high-pressure continuous bulk polymerization, medium-pressure suspension polymerization, solution polymerization, emulsion polymerization and the like. As for EVA resin products with 5-40% of VAc content, most enterprises adopt a high-pressure continuous bulk polymerization process for production, and the method has high yield and high process continuity. The medium-pressure suspension polymerization, solution polymerization and emulsion polymerization processes are less in application in recent years due to the fact that the EVA resin finished product is low in purity, the ethylene content in the finished product is low, and the production capacity of a reactor is limited.
The high-pressure continuous bulk polymerization process adopts a high-pressure tubular reactor, the pressure range is 160-: (1) the reaction is violent, the reaction temperature is uncontrollable, the reaction process is not controlled by the temperature, and the reaction device is always in explosion danger; if the structural mode that the high-pressure tubular reactor is coated by the super-strong explosion-proof concrete is adopted, the investment of a production device is huge; (2) the conversion rate is less than or equal to 30 percent, and more than 70 percent of unreacted monomer is subjected to pressure relief, temperature reduction and recovery, then compression and temperature rise, and the process has huge energy consumption.
In the prior art, a Chinese granted patent CN106543337A discloses a method for preparing EVA by ethylene segmented pressurization, which uses a single reaction kettle for polymerization, uses an emulsion polymerization process, and adopts a method of ethylene segmented pressure maintaining to carry out staged copolymerization, wherein the highest reaction pressure is 11MPa, but the highest value of the vinyl acetate content is only 40%, the reaction time exceeds 10h, the time consumption is long, the conversion rate is not high, and the operation is complicated.
US granted patent US4921898A provides a process for preparing vinyl acetate-ethylene copolymer emulsions in the presence of a stabilizing system of a low molecular weight polyvinyl alcohol and a surfactant. The method records that ethylene and vinyl acetate are polymerized under the condition of free radical initiation, a water phase system is adopted, the polymerization reaction process adopts one-step pressurization to 1.4-3.4MPa, the polymerization is initiated at 45-80 ℃, and the glass transition temperature Tg is-30-20 ℃. However, the method is a single-kettle reaction, equipment needs to be cleaned among batches, and the use efficiency of the equipment is low.
The Chinese granted patent CN102695725A provides a method for continuous emulsion polymerization initiated by water-containing free radicals, which adopts a multi-kettle series connection process to initiate copolymerization reaction at 50-90 ℃; the pressure of reaction ethylene is 1.0-9.0MPa, the pressure of the multi-kettle series connection is gradually reduced, the polymerization time is 24h, and the solid content of the product is 50%. However, the method also has the problems of complex multi-kettle process operation, high polymerization control difficulty, high device cost and energy consumption and the like. The final product had a Tg of about 6 ℃ and a too high glass transition temperature, indicating a low vinyl acetate content.
Chinese patent application CN108239207A provides a device for producing ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, in which ethylene as a raw material is first compressed for one time and then compressed for two times, and then enters a tubular reactor together with other raw materials to perform polymerization reaction at 205 ℃ and 140MPa pressure, so as to obtain a crude product containing vinyl acetate copolymer. Separating the crude product and unreacted gas by a 22MPa high-pressure separator, and adding the unreacted gas into the tubular reactor again by a high-pressure circulating cooler to participate in the reaction. However, the process operation of the production device is also complicated, and the content of the finally obtained product vinyl acetate is only 17 percent.
