Definitions

  • polyester e.g. synthesis based on dimethyl terephthalate (DMT) and ethylene glycol.
  • DMT dimethyl terephthalate
  • methanol is first distilled off in a transesterification reaction with an excess of ethylene glycol and then the excess glycol is reduced and condensed in vacuo.
  • the polymer can be produced by reaction from free terephthalic acid (TPA) and ethylene glycol.
  • TPA free terephthalic acid
  • the terephthalic acid is first esterified with an excess of ethylene glycol under pressure at about 260 ° C., and this excess is then removed in vacuo and the reaction mass is condensed.
  • Recycled processes for the production of polyester material are also known. Large areas of application for polyester in terms of volume are the production of polyester fibers and the use as a food container, e.g. in bottle form and in the form of films of all kinds.
  • optical brighteners are added to the polymer at different times to produce brightened polyester.
  • the majority of fiber manufacturers therefore add the optical brightener as an active substance in the polycondensation stage or as a masterbatch to the polyester mass.
  • the addition of optical brighteners in the transesterification phase is also known. It is generally unknown
  • optical brighteners that can be used without decomposition in the esterification phase.
  • thermal and acid-stable optical brighteners on the one hand increase the reproducibility and predictability of the product properties and, on the other hand, they are technically considerably easier to apply because there is no need for complex lock systems for the subsequent application of the active ingredient.
  • Recycled processes in particular benefit from thermal and acid-stable optical brighteners.
  • Technically significant optical brighteners for polyesters are based on the basic structure 2,2 '- (1,2-ethylenediyl-4,1-phenylene) -bisbenzoxazole, which can be substituted in different ways.
  • optical brighteners in the form of a dispersion in glycol in polyester production at the stage of transesterification of DMT with glycol.
  • this product class for the direct esterification of TPA with glycol, since in the presence of acids the effects of chemical decomposition are considerably restricted.
  • This brightener class can therefore only be applied after the esterification is almost complete or complete. It has now surprisingly been found that this problem can be solved by using optical brighteners whose structure is free from one or more open-chain ethylenic double bonds.
  • the invention relates to a process for the production of optically brightened polyester by esterification of an aliphatic and / or aromatic polycarboxylic acid, preferably dicarboxylic acid, and a polyol, preferably diol, characterized in that the esterification is carried out in the presence of an optical brightener, the structure of which is free of one or more open chain ethylenic double bonds.
  • polyesters such as, for example, terephthalic acid, isophthalic acid, 5-sulfoisophthalic acid, naphthalenedicarboxylic acid and ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, butylene glycol-1,2, butylene glycol, are suitable for the preparation of the polyester -1, 4, glycerin, pentaerythritol.
  • the preferred polyester is polyethylene terephthalate (PET).
  • optical brighteners are compounds of the formulas 1 to 4.
  • R 1 to R 8 independently of one another are hydrogen, C 1 -C 0 -alkyl or groups of the formula -COOR 9 , where Rg is hydrogen, CrC 20 -alkyl or phenyl, or R 1 to R 8 represent a group of the formula -SO 2 R- ⁇ o, where Rio is hydrogen,
  • A means naphthylene, phenylene, thiophenylene or biphenylene.
  • optical brighteners are added to the synthesis before the esterification.
  • the esterification and condensation then take place in accordance with the processes which are customary and known in the production of polyester: in the same way, these optical brighteners can also be used in recycled processes for recycling PET, the optical brightener preferably being added to the glycol.
  • optical brighteners without olefinic double bonds (according to the invention)
  • optical brighteners without an open-chain ethylenic double bond are more stable compared to optical brighteners which contain such a double bond.
