Abstract

1511412 Oligomeric terephthalic acid ethylene glycol esters DYNAMIT NOBEL AG 29 Jan 1976 [1 Feb 1975] 03648/76 Heading C2C [Also in Division C3] The invention comprises a terephthalic acid ethylene glycol ester solid at ambient temperature and having a purity such that it possesses each of the following characteristics: a solidification point in the range of from 180‹ to 220‹ C.; a reduced viscosity measured as herein specified of from 0À07 to 0À14 dl./g.; a melt viscosity not higher than 250 cP; an oligomeric ester content of at least 80% by weight; a free ethylene glycol content of at most 5% by weight and an average degree of condensation of from 2À2 to 6À7. It may be obtained by continuously introducing dimethyl terephthalate and ethylene glycol in a molar ratio of from 1 : 1À6 to 1 : 2 into an upper chamber of a multi-chamber column reactor which comprises a plurality of chambers arranged vertically one above the other, each communicating with the chamber or chambers thereadjacent, catalytically effecting transesterification of the dimethyl terephthalate at temperatures in the range of from 140‹ to 240‹ C. as the reaction mixture from said upper chamber passes through a plurality of the chambers to yield a transesterification product in a lower chamber, which product is continuously passed to a zone in which the pressure is below ambient pressure, the temperature is from 10‹ to 40‹ C. above the solidfication point of the transesterification product and the residence time of the transesterification product is such that as much glycol is removed therefrom as is necessary for adjusting the terephthalic acid : glycol molar ratio of the product to a value of from 1 : 1À45 to 1 : 1À15, and continuously applying the liquid product thus obtained in a thin layer to a surface heated to from 40‹ to 100‹ C. and removing the product from said surface in solid form. Specified transesterification catalysts are zinc and manganese acetates. Alkali metal alcoholates may be employed as co-catalysts.
