Technology for preparing propylene-glycol monoalky lether carboxylic ester by catalytic distillation
The present invention relates to the preparation technology of propylene-glycol monoalky lether carboxylic ester, especially about technology for preparing propylene-glycol monoalky lether carboxylic ester by catalytic distillation.
Propylene-glycol monoalky lether carboxylic ester is the senior industry solvent of going up of a kind of low toxicity of excellent property.Because its toxicity is low, solubility property is good, development abroad is very fast in recent years, is progressively substituting to be extensive use of at present but the higher glycol ether acetic ester of toxicity.It can be widely applicable for industries such as coating, printing, printing ink, clean-out system, textile dyestuff and leather retanning agent.The preparation of propylene-glycol monoalky lether carboxylic ester in the past is to be raw material with propylene glycol and carboxylic acid, is entrainer with toluene, generates propylene glycol ether carboxylate under an acidic catalyst effect.But this reaction is because esterification is subjected to the restriction of molecular balance, and reactant is converted at 80~95% o'clock, and esterification just stops.The aftertreatment trouble.It is raw material that patent No. US4544453 has just narrated with propylene-glycol monoalky lether and carboxylic acid, is entrainer with toluene, and entrainer refluxes, and injects water by cat head simultaneously, is removed by cat head with steam stripped method and anhydrates and unreacted propylene glycol and acetic acid.Raw material and an acidic catalyst p-methyl benzenesulfonic acid add from the tower still, have solved the loss problem of product ester.Yet slough water simultaneously by cat head, propylene glycol, acetic acid have brought the recovery problem of the propylene glycol and the acetic acid of aqueous phase, make aftertreatment need a lot of towers, especially the recovery of propylene glycol, bigger after propylene glycol monomethyl ether and the phase-splitting of water azeotropic in aqueous phase solubleness, be difficult to recovery with general distillating method and obtain water-free propylene glycol.
In order to overcome the shortcoming that conventional art exists, the purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of technology for preparing propylene-glycol monoalky lether carboxylic ester by catalytic distillation, propylene-glycol monoalky lether is carried out with separating simultaneously with the reaction of carboxylic acid, propylene glycol or acetic acid energy primitive reaction is complete simultaneously, and the cat head aqueous phase does not contain propylene glycol and acetic acid.Thereby simplify the subsequent reactions thing greatly and reclaim technology.
The objective of the invention is to realize: a kind of technology for preparing propylene-glycol monoalky lether carboxylic ester by catalytic distillation by following technical scheme, with propylene-glycol monoalky lether and carboxylic acid is reaction raw materials, toluene is entrainer, in the presence of an acidic catalyst, react, temperature of reaction is 80~160 ℃, reaction pressure is normal pressure~0.3MPa, wherein reaction raw materials catalyzed reaction and rectifying in catalytic distillation tower carries out simultaneously, the mol ratio of reaction raw materials carboxylic acid and propylene-glycol monoalky lether is 0.25~5: 1, the theoretical plate number of reactive distillation column is 30~50, the raw material feed entrance point is at reactive distillation column number of theoretical plate 1/4~2/3 place, and the quantity of reflux of cat head entrainer and the weight ratio of inlet amount are 0.03~0.4: 1.
The reaction raw materials propylene-glycol monoalky lether is propylene glycol monomethyl ether, propylene-glycol ethyl ether in the technique scheme; Carboxylic acid is an acetic acid.An acidic catalyst is p-methyl benzenesulfonic acid, Phenylsulfonic acid resin; The temperature of reaction preferable range is 100~150 ℃, and the mol ratio of reaction raw materials carboxylic acid and propylene-glycol monoalky lether is 0.5~4: 1; The theoretical plate number preferable range of catalytic distillation tower is 40~50, and the weight ratio preferable range of the quantity of reflux of cat head entrainer and inlet amount is 0.06~0.2: 1.
The present invention selects suitable process conditions owing to adopted catalytic distillation technology, and propylene glycol and carboxylic acid are when constantly reacting in the reactive distillation column, product ester and water are constantly separated, steamed by tower still and cat head respectively, under the catalytic distillation condition, reaction trends towards fully.Thereby make the cat head aqueous phase not contain propylene glycol, acetic acid.Steam at the bottom of the tower that propylene-glycol monoalky lether carboxylic ester content is 30~97% (weight) in the material, acetic acid 0.1~70% (weight), propylene-glycol monoalky lether 1~3% (weight) is below the water 0.5% (weight).This bottoms material advances the product purification tower, removes a spot of acetic acid, propylene-glycol monoalky lether with general distillation, and minor amount of water is with regard to recyclable smart product propylene-glycol monoalky lether carboxylic ester.Propylene glycol and the acetic acid told return reactive distillation column, have simplified the subsequent reactions thing greatly and have reclaimed technology, have obtained reaction effect preferably.
Accompanying drawing 1 is a technology for preparing propylene-glycol monoalky lether carboxylic ester by catalytic distillation.
1 is catalytic distillation tower in accompanying drawing 1, and 2 is the catalytic distillation section, and 3 is the raw material feed entrance point, and 4 is water-and-oil separator, and 5 is condenser, and 6 is the discharging of catalytic distillation Tata still, and 7 is the water discharging.
