Description

Regenerated PET material and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of PET regeneration, in particular to a regenerated PET material and a preparation method thereof.
Background
PET, polyethylene terephthalate, is a widely used plastic material in the fields of food packaging materials, textiles, construction and the like, and is also a main material causing plastic pollution at present. Since degradation of PET material is difficult, its recycling and reuse have become an important research topic in the current society.
At present, the methods for regenerating PET mainly comprise a physical regeneration method and a chemical regeneration method, wherein the physical regeneration method is to pack food made of PET materials, such as a plastic bottle, and then prepare PET short fibers again after crushing. Because the granules need to be chopped and melted in the physical treatment process, on one hand, the whole PET material can be more crushed, and meanwhile, in the melting process, the PET aging is inevitably caused, and adverse reactions such as molecular fracture, side chain oxidation and the like occur. Therefore, the prepared regenerated PET has poor general properties and can only be used for preparing filling or low-strength materials.
The chemical method is a reaction method for obtaining monomers by re-cleavage of ester bonds in PET through chemical reaction. The existing methods developed at present include hydrolysis, methanolysis, ethylene glycol, etc., and the intermediate products prepared by the method are terephthalic acid or alcohol ester thereof, which can be used for preparing terephthalic acid by re-catalysis.
In the chemical regeneration method, the ethylene glycol terephthalate (BHET) obtained after the regeneration of ethylene glycol can be directly polymerized under the catalysis to prepare the PET, so that the method has excellent application prospect in industry. In the prior art, acetate (mainly zinc acetate) or titanate of metal is required for glycol degradation of PET as a catalyst, and cracking is difficult to occur in a catalyst-free state, a large amount of heavy metal waste liquid can be generated in the state, and meanwhile, more oligomer residues are also generated, so that the yield of BHET and popularization of a preparation process are influenced.

Detailed Description
The technical scheme of the application is further described below with reference to the specific embodiments.
In the present application, the partial terms concerned are explained as follows:
mesoporous material refers to a mesoporous material whose surface or through which the surface is connected to the interior of the material, and the mesoporous is generally a void with a diameter of 1-100 nm. The common mesoporous material can be prepared by a method such as an organic matter template method, and can also be obtained by rusting the complete material after the preparation of the complete material is completed. In general, mesoporous materials have a specific surface area exceeding that of similar common materials, and the mesoporous materials can be plate-shaped, granular or powdery, and when the mesoporous materials are powdery, the mesoporous materials can be generally distributed in the micrometer to nanometer level in particle size.
The metal catalyst refers to a catalyst which can be used for catalyzing PET to be cracked and can be an organic salt or an inorganic salt of metal according to the prior art, wherein metal ions can be zinc, copper, cobalt, nickel, tin, rhodium, palladium, platinum, silver, cadmium, iridium, lead and the like, and counter ions can be sulfate radical, nitrate radical, halogen ions, acetate, formate, optionally substituted benzene sulfonate, optionally substituted benzoate, trifluoroacetate and the like organic acid radical or inorganic acid radical.
In the application, the solid-liquid two-phase separation method can adopt methods such as filtration, suction filtration, centrifugation and the like, and can reduce the temperature to precipitate PET and separate when the PET which is not cracked in a melting system is separated, wherein the separation temperature depends on the precipitation temperature of the PET.
Embodiment 1, a method for regenerating a PET material, wherein zinc acetate (the mass is calculated by anhydrous zinc acetate) is used as a metal catalyst and different mesoporous materials are used for finding the best mesoporous material, specifically comprising the following steps:
if the reaction is the first reaction, step S1 is as follows:
S1, adding 100gPET recovered crushed materials into a reaction kettle, wherein the recovered crushed materials are obtained from a colorless PET beverage bottle, and adding ethylene glycol, a medium material and a metal catalyst into the crushed fragrance, wherein the adding amount of the ethylene glycol is 200g, the adding amount of the mesoporous material is 5g, and the adding amount of the metal catalyst is 0.2g. Heating the components to 195 ℃ under the protection of nitrogen to react for 1h to obtain a first mixed system;
If the reaction is not the first reaction, step S1 is as follows:
S1, adding 100gPET recovered crushed materials into a reaction kettle, wherein the recovered crushed materials are obtained from a colorless PET beverage bottle, adding ethylene glycol into crushed aroma, wherein the adding amount of the ethylene glycol is 200g, adding the first solid phase component separated in the step S2 in the previous reaction cycle, and supplementing 30% (namely 0.06 g) of the mass of the metal catalyst which is added for the first time. The components react for 1h at 195 ℃ under the protection of nitrogen to obtain a first mixed system;
The rest reaction steps are as follows:
s2, cooling the first mixed system to 160 ℃ under the protection of nitrogen, and filtering to obtain a second mixed system and a first solid phase component;
S3, adding excessive deionized water into the second mixed system under the protection of nitrogen, keeping the temperature above 80 ℃, and then filtering to obtain an ethylene terephthalate oligomer (solid phase) and a third mixed system;
s4, crystallizing the third mixed system by adopting a recrystallization method under the protection of nitrogen, wherein the specific method comprises the following steps: after the system was concentrated to 100mL, it was allowed to stand at 4℃for 24 hours, followed by filtration, with BHET as the solid phase and a mixed system of ethylene glycol, water and a part of the metal catalyst as the liquid phase.
Five cycles of the above reaction steps were performed, and the following reaction data of the five cycles were evaluated.
Bhet yield: the ratio of the mass of the final BHET to the theoretical mass of BHET.
PET decomposition amount: for each reaction, the first solid phase component separated in step S2 is weighed, and then the mass of the mesoporous material added in advance is subtracted, and the value is taken as the undegraded value, and it should be noted that the calculation is not additionally performed in consideration of the fact that the amount of the metal catalyst is small, and the calculation is omitted here as an error, so that the actual PET degradation rate should be higher than that calculated in the present application.
In example 1, the experimental results using different mesoporous materials are shown in table 1.
TABLE 1 influence of mesoporous materials on reaction System
The above particle sizes are all average particle sizes, and it is found from the above data that alumina has a good ability to maintain a catalytic effect when the particle size is controlled within 1 μm as compared with mesoporous silica, mesoporous silicon nitride and mesoporous aluminum silicate. Meanwhile, the efficiency of the silicon dioxide obviously slips down after the third cycle, and the silicon nitride also has certain slip down in the fifth cycle, which proves the application effect of the aluminum oxide system in the scheme.
Example 2, a method for regenerating PET material, wherein mesoporous alumina of 100nm magnitude is used as mesoporous material to replace different metal catalysts, other reaction conditions are the same as in example 1, and experimental results are shown in Table 2.
TABLE 2 influence of Metal catalysts on the reaction System
The experimental result shows that the tin-zinc-silver composite catalytic system has obvious promotion effect on the catalytic effect, and has better effect in the catalyst. Since the PET decomposition rate was close to 100% in the above conditions, the subsequent data will not be reproduced and the BHET yield will be studied with great emphasis.
Example 3 the quality of the metal catalyst initially charged and the metal catalyst to be replenished each time was further examined on the basis of the best mode of embodiment (20% tin acetate +78% zinc acetate +2% silver acetate) in example 2, the other conditions were the same as in example 2 to investigate the effect of catalyst usage on PET material cracking, and the results were shown in table 3.
TABLE 3 influence of the amount of Metal catalyst on BHET yield
The experiment shows that the primary catalyst has better effect within the mass fraction range of 0.1-0.2%, and no obvious effect is caused by continuously increasing the reaction of the system. The amount of catalyst added each time is 15-30%, and good circulation effect can be maintained in at least five circulation. When the supplementing amount is too large, the reaction efficiency is not obviously improved, the yield is not obviously changed, and meanwhile, because the adsorption capacity of the mesoporous material is limited, more metal ions are also caused in the discharged wastewater.
Example 4 based on example 3, the mass of the mesoporous material was further adjusted by using a scheme in which the mass of the metal catalyst added for the first time was 0.2% of the mass of PET (i.e., 0.2 g), and the metal catalyst added for the subsequent time was 30% of the initial amount (i.e., 0.06 g), and the remaining conditions were unchanged, and the experimental results are shown in table 4.
TABLE 4 influence of the quality of mesoporous materials on BHET yield
The increase of the mesoporous material can reduce the yield to a certain extent, but the influence is smaller before reaching 200 times of the mass of the composite metal catalyst, but the 5g of the mesoporous material has a better effect in consideration of the convenience of process separation (for example, in the practical industry, excessive solid content can cause pipeline blockage, difficult filtration, abrasion or seizing of stirring blades).
Example 5 the effect of the cleavage temperature of step S1 on BHET yield was further studied, a scheme of adding 5g of mesoporous material was selected in example 4, the remaining conditions remained unchanged, and the experimental results are shown in Table 5.
TABLE 5 influence of cleavage temperature on BHET yield
In general, the high temperature is favorable for the catalytic pyrolysis of PET, but the high temperature is unfavorable for the adsorption of the catalyst in the porous material, so that the cycle times are reduced, and the catalyst loss is larger. Through comprehensive experiments, the method has the best circulation effect in the range of 180-200 ℃. The production enterprises can measure whether the high yield and the high energy consumption brought by the high temperature accord with the actual effect of the enterprises according to the actual conditions, and then the proper temperature is selected.
The above detailed description is intended to illustrate the present invention by way of example only and not to limit the invention to the particular embodiments disclosed, but to limit the invention to the precise embodiments disclosed, and any modifications, equivalents, improvements, etc. that fall within the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
