Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an oligomeric composition of lactic acid esters comprising a mixture of alkyl mono- and polylactyllactates of formula: CH 3 CH (OH) [C (O) OCH (CH 3 )] n-1 CO 2 R (I) in which R represents an alkyl radical having a number of carbon atoms ranging from 1 to 4 and n is an integer equal to 2,3 or 4.
  • the invention particularly relates to a composition of ethyl mono- and polylactyllactates.
  • This composition can be used alone or in combination with other solvents, especially as cleaning and degreasing agents in the machine and in a non-aqueous medium for solid surfaces such as metal parts, ceramics, glass, plastics having have been soiled with oils or greases and / or their temporary protection. They can also be used for defluxing printed circuits. This defluxing operation consisting in eliminating the welding flux.
  • the cleaning agents and / or degreasing must have other characteristics such as in particular having a high flash point, low toxicity, be odorless and not release into the atmosphere volatile organic compounds ( VOCs).
  • composition of the present invention generally meets the criteria mentioned above.
  • composition of the present invention can also be used to obtain cyclic-cyclic lactides - which are precursors of choice for obtaining polylactides used as biomaterials.
  • HV Claborn (US 2,371,281) describes a process for obtaining alkyl lactyllactate by reacting lactide (3,6-dimethyl-1,4-dioxane-2,5-dione) with an alcohol R 1 OH according to the reaction :
  • the main fraction (78 g) identified as ethyl lactyllactate is a slightly viscous, colorless and odorless liquid which distills at 110 ° C - 113 ° C at 7.5 mmHg.
  • CE Rehberg and MB Dixon (Journal of Amber Chem., 74, page 1609, 1952) which give the physical properties of several alkyl lactyllactates (methyl, ethyl n-propyl, n-butyl, n-hexyl, n -octyl) mention that these compounds can be obtained according to the method of HV Claborn previously mentioned (U5 2,371,281) or that these compounds are by-products in the preparation of simple alkyl lactates in the laboratory stage, the conversion to alkyl lactyllactate being usually of the order of 5% to 20% depends on the alcohol / lactic acid ratio used during the esterification of said lactic acid.
  • alkyl lactyllactates can be obtained by transesterification of alkyl lactate in the presence of H 2 SO 4 .
  • US 6,191,087 discloses a degreasing composition containing a lactic acid ester.
  • the subject of the present invention is therefore a composition
  • a composition comprising a mixture of alkyl mono- and polylactylactates of formula: CH 3 CH (OH) [C (O) OCH (CH 3 )] n-1 CO 2 R (I) in which R represents an alkyl radical having a number of carbon atoms ranging from 1 to 4 and n is an integer equal to 2, 3 or 4.
  • the alkyl radical is a methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl or n-butyl radical.
  • the alkyl radical is an ethyl radical.
  • composition according to the invention may furthermore contain an alkyl lactate of formula CH 3 CH (OH) CO 2 R (II) in which R has the same meaning as in formula (I), especially in the range of 0, 1 to 1 part by weight per 100 parts by weight of the mixture L 2 A + L 3 A + L 4 A.
  • It may also comprise oligomers of higher molecular masses, that is to say alkyl polylactylates in which n> 4 in particular, from 0.1 to 4 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the mixture L 2 A + L 3 A + L 4 A.
  • composition of the present invention can be obtained by total conversion esterification of a previously concentrated commercial lactic acid solution, said total conversion being achieved by removing water formed by azeotropic distillation.
  • the concentration of commercial lactic acid solutions can be achieved by simple evaporation in one or more steps, at a temperature ranging from 100 ° C to 170 ° C, at atmospheric pressure or under reduced pressure and until a composition is obtained.
  • the LAT corresponds to the mass of lactic acid monomer contained in 100 g of the lactic acid composition.
  • This mass is determined after saponification at a determined weight (0.1 to 0.3 g) of the oligomeric composition. After neutralization of the reaction mixture, it is analyzed by the high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) technique with refractometric detection. This analysis can be done on a cation exchange column of the type "SHODEX SH 1011" in using N / 100 sulfuric acid as eluent. This technique makes it possible to determine the mass of lactic acid monomer contained in the tested sample and by simple calculation, the LAT.
  • HPLC high performance liquid chromatography
  • the concentration reaction is monitored by measuring the weight of water removed and the amount of water in the concentrate determined by the Karl Fisher water test method.
  • esterification is carried out in the conventional manner in the presence of an acid catalyst chosen in particular from the group comprising sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, para-toluenesulfonic acid, methanesulfonic acid and the resins acids such as, for example, Amberlyst A15.
  • an acid catalyst chosen in particular from the group comprising sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, para-toluenesulfonic acid, methanesulfonic acid and the resins acids such as, for example, Amberlyst A15.
  • azeotropic distillation By way of illustration of azeotropic entrainers which can be used according to the present invention, mention may be made of cyclohexane or toluene.
  • cyclohexane will be used.
  • the total conversion esterification of the concentrated lactic acid solution is carried out at temperatures between 70 ° C. and 100 ° C. at atmospheric pressure and with an alcohol / lactic acid molar ratio ranging from 1.3 to 2.
  • reaction medium is subjected to a basic treatment in order to neutralize the acid catalyst.
  • this treatment is carried out on a bed of basic resin such as Amberlyst resin A21, which resin bed is washed with a solvent such as an alkyl lactact.
  • basic resin such as Amberlyst resin A21
  • the products of the composition according to the invention were identified by gas chromatography (GC) coupled to a mass spectrometer.
  • GC gas chromatography
  • composition of the invention may also be obtained from an alkyl lactate of formula (II) by transesterification in the presence of a catalyst selected from alkyl orthotitanates such as ethyl orthotitanate, zirconium acetylacetonate, tributyltin, strong bases such as KOH, NaOH, quaternary ammonium hydroxides.
  • a catalyst selected from alkyl orthotitanates such as ethyl orthotitanate, zirconium acetylacetonate, tributyltin, strong bases such as KOH, NaOH, quaternary ammonium hydroxides.
  • reaction medium is treated in a known manner in order to eliminate the catalyst used.
  • the reaction medium is then concentrated under reduced pressure to remove the unconverted alkyl lactate.
  • composition of the present invention is a colorless, odorless liquid having a flash point above 100 ° C.
