Description

本発明は、エチレンイミン重合体水溶液およびその製造方法に関するものである。さらに詳しくは、本発明は、エチレンイミンを開環重合させるエチレンイミン重合体水溶液の製造方法、並びに、エチレンイミン重合体水溶液に関するものである。 The present invention relates to an aqueous ethyleneimine polymer solution and a method for producing the same. More specifically, the present invention relates to a method for producing an ethyleneimine polymer aqueous solution for ring-opening polymerization of ethyleneimine, and an ethyleneimine polymer aqueous solution.

ポリエチレンイミンは紙加工剤、接着剤、粘着剤、塗料、インキ、繊維処理剤、凝集分離剤、化粧品、トイレタリー、分散剤などの分野で幅広く利用されている。エチレンイミン重合体は、エチレンイミンを重合開始剤の存在下に重合させて得られるが、無溶媒下での重合では、粘度上の問題から、得られるエチレンイミン重合体の重合度は低い。このため、高重合度のエチレンイミン重合体を得るためには、水性媒体中で重合反応を行い、高分子量のエチレンイミン重合体をその水溶液の形態で得ている。例えば、特許文献1には、水性溶液中でポリハロアルカン重合開始剤の存在下、55℃から85℃でエチレンイミン水溶液の沸点の範囲の温度でエチレンイミンを重合させてエチレンイミン重合体水溶液を得る方法が記載されている。特許文献2は、モノエタノールアミンを触媒の存在下に分子内脱水反応させて得られる粗エチレンイミンの水性媒体中でポリハロアルカン重合開始剤、例えば、ジクロロエタンの存在下に80℃で反応することによりエチレンイミン重合体水溶液が得られることが開示されている。特許文献3には、水性媒体中でエチレンイミンを重合してエチレンイミン重合体水溶液を製造するにあたり、エチレンイミンを80℃以下の温度で重合させ、次いで100〜150℃の温度で熟成することにより、粘度の経時的変化が少なく品質が安定し、また樹脂分が20〜70質量%という高濃度のエチレンイミン重合体水溶液が得られることが開示されている。 Polyethyleneimine is widely used in fields such as paper processing agents, adhesives, pressure-sensitive adhesives, paints, inks, fiber treatment agents, aggregating and separating agents, cosmetics, toiletries, and dispersing agents. The ethyleneimine polymer is obtained by polymerizing ethyleneimine in the presence of a polymerization initiator. However, in the polymerization in the absence of a solvent, the degree of polymerization of the resulting ethyleneimine polymer is low due to viscosity problems. For this reason, in order to obtain an ethyleneimine polymer having a high degree of polymerization, a polymerization reaction is carried out in an aqueous medium to obtain a high molecular weight ethyleneimine polymer in the form of an aqueous solution thereof. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses that an ethyleneimine polymer aqueous solution is obtained by polymerizing ethyleneimine in an aqueous solution in the presence of a polyhaloalkane polymerization initiator at a temperature ranging from 55 ° C to 85 ° C in the boiling point of the ethyleneimine aqueous solution. A method is described. Patent Document 2 discloses a reaction in an aqueous medium of crude ethyleneimine obtained by intramolecular dehydration reaction of monoethanolamine in the presence of a catalyst at 80 ° C. in the presence of a polyhaloalkane polymerization initiator, for example, dichloroethane. It is disclosed that an ethyleneimine polymer aqueous solution can be obtained. In Patent Document 3, in the production of an ethyleneimine polymer aqueous solution by polymerizing ethyleneimine in an aqueous medium, ethyleneimine is polymerized at a temperature of 80 ° C. or less, and then aged at a temperature of 100 to 150 ° C. Further, it is disclosed that an aqueous ethyleneimine polymer solution having a high concentration of 20 to 70% by mass with a resin content can be obtained with little change in viscosity with time.

しかしながら、エチレンイミン重合体は製造工程、貯蔵、運搬、使用時など経時的に黄変、さらには褐色に着色しやすいことが問題となった。そのため外観が問題となる用途、例えば食品の包装フィルム用や洗剤用原料、インク、塗料など外観を重視する用途によってはエチレンイミン重合体水溶液の使用制限を受けることがあった。そのため、かかる変色を防止する方法として、下記の方法が知られている。例えば、ポリアリルアミンやポリエチレンイミンの水溶性の混合物に、リン酸、クエン酸、酒石酸などの酸を添加する方法(特許文献4参照)、ポリアミンにホウ素化合物を添加することによる変色防止法(特許文献5参照。)、ポリアミンに、ケイ酸化合物および/または該ポリアミンよりも高い塩基性を有する塩基性化合物を添加することにより変色防止法(特許文献6参照)、着色抑制剤として有機リン酸エステル化合物の添加(特許文献7)が提案されている。   However, the ethyleneimine polymer has been problematic in that it tends to yellow over time, such as during the manufacturing process, storage, transportation, and use, and further easily brown. For this reason, use of an ethyleneimine polymer aqueous solution may be restricted depending on uses in which appearance is a problem, for example, food packaging films, raw materials for detergents, inks, paints, etc. that place importance on appearance. Therefore, the following methods are known as methods for preventing such discoloration. For example, a method of adding an acid such as phosphoric acid, citric acid, and tartaric acid to a water-soluble mixture of polyallylamine and polyethyleneimine (see Patent Document 4), and a method for preventing discoloration by adding a boron compound to polyamine (Patent Document) 5), a silicic acid compound and / or a basic compound having a higher basicity than the polyamine is added to the polyamine to prevent discoloration (see Patent Document 6), and an organic phosphate compound as a coloring inhibitor (Patent Document 7) has been proposed.

しかし、各種の酸、ホウ素化合物、塩基性化合物または有機リン酸エステル化合物等の着色抑制剤は使用時の着色、ラミネートフィルム等の使用製品の着色を抑制する目的としたものであり、また各種抑制剤の添加は純度を低下させる要因となるため、根本的に低着色で高純度のエチレンイミン重合体およびその製造方法が望まれており改善の余地があった。   However, coloring inhibitors such as various acids, boron compounds, basic compounds, or organic phosphate compounds are intended to suppress coloring during use and coloring of products used such as laminate films. Since the addition of the agent causes a decrease in purity, there has been a room for improvement since a radically low-colored and high-purity ethyleneimine polymer and a method for producing the same have been desired.

本発明によれば、重合反応後だけでなく、長期に保存しても着色の少ない高純度エチレンイミン重合体水溶液を製造することができる。さらに、本発明の着色の少ない高純度エチレンイミン重合体水溶液は、着色および粘度が経時的に変化が起きないため、品質が安定なエチレンイミン重合体水溶液であり、食品の包装フィルム用や洗剤用原料、インク、塗料などに好適に用いることが可能となる。   According to the present invention, it is possible to produce a high-purity ethyleneimine polymer aqueous solution with little coloration after storage for a long period of time as well as after the polymerization reaction. Furthermore, the highly pure ethyleneimine polymer aqueous solution of the present invention with little coloration is a stable quality ethyleneimine polymer aqueous solution because its coloration and viscosity do not change with time, and is used for food packaging films and detergents. It can be suitably used for raw materials, inks, paints, and the like.

本発明にかかるエチレンイミン重合体水溶液の製造方法は、水性媒体中でエチレンイミンを重合する際に、酸素濃度2体積%以下の不活性ガス雰囲気下で、重合時の反応溶液温度が45〜80℃になるようにエチレンイミンを重合させ、かつ重合中の反応熱を除去する熱媒の温度を40℃以上で行うエチレンイミン重合体水溶液の製造方法である。また、本発明にかかる高純度エチレンイミン重合体水溶液は、ハーゼン単位色数が100以下であるエチレンイミン重合体水溶液である。   In the method for producing an ethyleneimine polymer aqueous solution according to the present invention, when ethyleneimine is polymerized in an aqueous medium, the reaction solution temperature during polymerization is 45 to 80 in an inert gas atmosphere having an oxygen concentration of 2% by volume or less. This is a method for producing an ethyleneimine polymer aqueous solution in which ethyleneimine is polymerized so that the temperature is 0 ° C., and the temperature of the heating medium for removing heat of reaction during polymerization is 40 ° C. or higher. The high-purity ethyleneimine polymer aqueous solution according to the present invention is an ethyleneimine polymer aqueous solution having a Hazen unit color number of 100 or less.

本発明に用いるエチレンイミンには特に制限はなく、例えば、液相でハロゲン化エチルアミンを濃アルカリにより分子内閉環する方法、モノエタノールアミン硫酸エステルを熱濃アルカリにより分子内閉環する方法(以下、液相法ともいう)、あるいはモノエタノールアミンを触媒的気相分子内脱水反応させる方法(以下、気相法ともいう)により得られるエチレンイミンを用いることができる。   The ethyleneimine used in the present invention is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include a method of intramolecular ring closure of halogenated ethylamine with concentrated alkali in a liquid phase, and a method of intramolecular ring closure of monoethanolamine sulfate with hot concentrated alkali (hereinafter, liquid Ethyleneimine obtained by a catalytic gas phase intramolecular dehydration reaction of monoethanolamine (hereinafter also referred to as a gas phase method) can be used.

気相法により得られるエチレンイミン原料としては、モノエタノールアミンの触媒的分子内脱水反応により得られるエチレンイミン含有反応混合物を簡単な蒸留操作に供して回収した粗エチレンイミンを重合用の原料とすることができる(特許文献2参照)。尚、粗エチレンイミンを重合する場合は、例えば特開2001−270941号公報に記載のとおり、エチレンイミン重合体(以下、粗エチレンイミン重合体ということもある。)を簡便な精製操作に供して、工業的に要求される品質基準に適合した高純度ポリエチレンイミンを得ることができる。   As the ethyleneimine raw material obtained by the gas phase method, a crude ethyleneimine recovered by subjecting the ethyleneimine-containing reaction mixture obtained by the catalytic intramolecular dehydration reaction of monoethanolamine to a simple distillation operation is used as a raw material for polymerization. (See Patent Document 2). When polymerizing crude ethyleneimine, for example, as described in JP-A-2001-270941, an ethyleneimine polymer (hereinafter sometimes referred to as crude ethyleneimine polymer) is subjected to a simple purification operation. A high-purity polyethyleneimine that meets industrially required quality standards can be obtained.

前記エチレンイミン含有反応混合物を高度に精製して得られる精製エチレンイミンもエチレンイミン重合体水溶液合成の原料として利用することができる。この場合、前記エチレンイミン含有反応混合物中には、目的物のエチレンイミンのほかに、未反応のモノエタノールアミンや、エチレンイミンのオリゴマー、アセトアルデヒドなどのケトン類、アセトアルデヒドと原料のモノエタノールアミンとが反応して生成するシッフ塩基などの重質不純物や、アンモニア、メチルアミンおよびエチルアミンの軽質アミン類、アセトニトリルなどの軽質不純物が含まれているので、これら不純物を高度の精製工程を経て除去し、しかる後に得られる精製エチレンイミンを重合反応に供するのである。   Purified ethyleneimine obtained by highly purifying the ethyleneimine-containing reaction mixture can also be used as a raw material for the synthesis of an ethyleneimine polymer aqueous solution. In this case, in the ethyleneimine-containing reaction mixture, in addition to the target ethyleneimine, unreacted monoethanolamine, ethyleneimine oligomers, ketones such as acetaldehyde, acetaldehyde and the raw material monoethanolamine It contains heavy impurities such as Schiff base produced by reaction, light amines such as ammonia, methylamine and ethylamine, and acetonitrile, so these impurities are removed through advanced purification steps. The purified ethyleneimine obtained later is subjected to a polymerization reaction.

高度の精製工程を経て得られる精製エチレンイミンを用いてエチレンイミン重合体を製造する技術は、高度の精製工程の実施にともなう生産コストのアップを免れず、工業的に有利とはいえないため、粗エチレンイミンがエチレンイミン原料として好適に用いられる。   The technology for producing an ethyleneimine polymer using purified ethyleneimine obtained through an advanced purification process is not industrially advantageous because it does not escape the increase in production costs associated with the implementation of the advanced purification process. Crude ethyleneimine is suitably used as the ethyleneimine raw material.

重合開始剤としては、エチレンイミンの重合に一般に用いられているものを使用できるが、1,2−ジクロロエタン、1,3−ジクロロプロパン、1,2−ジブロモエタン、クロロホルムなどのポリハロアルカンが好適に用いられる。重合開始剤の使用量は、目的とするエチレンイミン重合体の分子量により適宜選択できる。高分子量エチレンイミン重合体の水溶液を得るためには、エチレンイミンに対して、0.5〜5質量%とするのが好適である。   As the polymerization initiator, those generally used for the polymerization of ethyleneimine can be used, but polyhaloalkanes such as 1,2-dichloroethane, 1,3-dichloropropane, 1,2-dibromoethane, and chloroform are preferably used. Used. The usage-amount of a polymerization initiator can be suitably selected with the molecular weight of the target ethyleneimine polymer. In order to obtain an aqueous solution of a high molecular weight ethyleneimine polymer, the content is preferably 0.5 to 5% by mass with respect to ethyleneimine.

水性媒体としては、通常、水が用いられるが、水溶性有機液体、例えば、メタノール、エタノール、アセトン、ジメチルホルムアミドなどと水との混合物も使用することができる。   As the aqueous medium, water is usually used, but a water-soluble organic liquid, for example, a mixture of methanol, ethanol, acetone, dimethylformamide and the like and water can also be used.

本発明において、エチレンイミンを重合する際には酸素濃度2体積%以下の不活性ガス雰囲気下で行うのが良い。好ましくは酸素濃度1体積%以下、より好ましくは0.5体積%以下である。2体積%を超えるとエチレンイミン重合体水溶液が着色するか、またはその水溶液の保存又は貯蔵中に着色しやすくなる。不活性ガスとしては、特に限定されるものではなく、エチレンイミンに対して反応不活性なガスであれば良く、例えば、窒素、ヘリウム、二酸化炭素、又はアルゴン等を用いることができ、好適には窒素が用いられる。   In the present invention, the polymerization of ethyleneimine is preferably performed in an inert gas atmosphere having an oxygen concentration of 2% by volume or less. The oxygen concentration is preferably 1% by volume or less, more preferably 0.5% by volume or less. When it exceeds 2% by volume, the ethyleneimine polymer aqueous solution is colored, or is easily colored during storage or storage of the aqueous solution. The inert gas is not particularly limited, and may be any gas that is reactive with respect to ethyleneimine. For example, nitrogen, helium, carbon dioxide, or argon can be used, and preferably Nitrogen is used.

本発明においては、エチレンイミンを重合する際、反応溶液温度を45〜80℃、好ましくは50〜70℃の温度で行う。80℃を超える温度では、粘度の経時的変化が少なく品質の安定したエチレンイミン重合体水溶液を得ることができない。なお、あまり低い温度では、重合時間が長くなって経済的でない。   In the present invention, when polymerizing ethyleneimine, the reaction solution temperature is 45 to 80 ° C., preferably 50 to 70 ° C. At temperatures exceeding 80 ° C., it is not possible to obtain an ethyleneimine polymer aqueous solution with little quality change with time and stable quality. If the temperature is too low, the polymerization time becomes long and it is not economical.

本発明において、反応熱を除去するために用いる熱媒の温度は40℃以上に維持しながら重合を行うのが良い。好ましくは45℃以上、より好ましくは50℃以上である。熱媒の温度が40℃より低いとエチレンイミン重合体水溶液の着色しやすい傾向がみられる。熱媒の上限温度は特に制限はなく、前記反応溶液温度より低く、反応温度を制御できる熱媒温度であれば良いが、反応溶液温度との差が小さいと反応時間が伸びて生産性が低下する。   In the present invention, it is preferable to carry out the polymerization while maintaining the temperature of the heat medium used for removing reaction heat at 40 ° C. or higher. Preferably it is 45 degreeC or more, More preferably, it is 50 degreeC or more. When the temperature of the heating medium is lower than 40 ° C., the aqueous ethyleneimine polymer solution tends to be colored easily. The upper limit temperature of the heating medium is not particularly limited and may be any heating medium temperature that is lower than the reaction solution temperature and can control the reaction temperature. However, if the difference from the reaction solution temperature is small, the reaction time is extended and the productivity is lowered. To do.

前記熱媒の温度を維持することにより、エチレンイミンの反応中に反応溶液が局部的に高粘度になることが抑制され、高効率の撹拌により局部滞留がなく均一な重合をさせることができるため、エチレンイミンの反応が均一かつ効率的に行うことができるようになる。熱媒としては、温水、水蒸気または加熱したオイル等が使用でき、工業的には温水および水蒸気が好適に用いられる。   By maintaining the temperature of the heating medium, it is possible to suppress the reaction solution from becoming locally highly viscous during the reaction of ethyleneimine, and uniform polymerization can be achieved without local retention by highly efficient stirring. The reaction of ethyleneimine can be performed uniformly and efficiently. As the heat medium, warm water, steam, heated oil or the like can be used, and warm water and steam are preferably used industrially.

本発明においては、エチレンイミンの重合終了後、好ましくは供給したエチレンイミンの95%以上が消費された後、反応液を100〜150℃、好ましくは110〜140℃に昇温して、この温度範囲で熟成させる。100℃より低い温度では、粘度の経時的変化が少なく品質の安定したエチレンイミン重合体水溶液を得ることができない。また、150℃より高い温度では、生成したエチレンイミン重合体の熱分解が起こり、高分子量の重合体が得られないこともある。熟成時間は、通常、1〜20時間であり、好ましくは2〜10時間である。また、反応液を熟成温度まで昇温する時間は、通常、0.2〜5時間であり、好ましくは0.5〜3時間である。   In the present invention, after completion of the polymerization of ethyleneimine, preferably after 95% or more of the supplied ethyleneimine has been consumed, the reaction solution is heated to 100 to 150 ° C., preferably 110 to 140 ° C. Aging in range. When the temperature is lower than 100 ° C., an ethyleneimine polymer aqueous solution with little quality change with time and stable quality cannot be obtained. Further, at a temperature higher than 150 ° C., the produced ethyleneimine polymer may be thermally decomposed, and a high molecular weight polymer may not be obtained. The aging time is usually 1 to 20 hours, preferably 2 to 10 hours. The time for raising the temperature of the reaction solution to the aging temperature is usually 0.2 to 5 hours, preferably 0.5 to 3 hours.

本発明におけるエチレンイミンの重合反応の際、重合開始剤およびエチレンイミンは一括して添加してもよいが、発熱反応であるため、温度制御しながらそれぞれ連続的に供給するのがよい。   In the polymerization reaction of ethyleneimine in the present invention, the polymerization initiator and ethyleneimine may be added all at once, but since they are exothermic reactions, it is preferable to supply them continuously while controlling the temperature.

重合反応は常圧、加圧のいずれでもよく、通常、0〜10MPaG、好ましくは0〜2MPaGで行う。反応液の熟成は、通常、0.05〜10MPaG、好ましくは0.05〜1MPaGの加圧下に行うのがよい。ここで、MPaG(メガパスカルゲージ)はゲージ圧力のことである。   The polymerization reaction may be performed under normal pressure or increased pressure, and is usually performed at 0 to 10 MPaG, preferably 0 to 2 MPaG. Aging of the reaction solution is usually carried out under a pressure of 0.05 to 10 MPaG, preferably 0.05 to 1 MPaG. Here, MPaG (megapascal gauge) is a gauge pressure.

重合反応および熟成処理は、回分式(バッチ式)、半回分式、連続流通式などいずれの反応形式によっても行うことができる。連続流通式のように連続的にエチレンイミン重合体を製造する場合は管型反応器等が用いられ、回分式反応の場合は反応器等が使用される。本発明に用いる反応器としては、温度計、撹拌機、冷却装置等を備えた円筒型反応器が好適に用いられる。   The polymerization reaction and the aging treatment can be performed by any reaction system such as a batch system (batch system), a semi-batch system, and a continuous flow system. In the case of continuously producing an ethyleneimine polymer as in the continuous flow method, a tubular reactor or the like is used, and in the case of a batch reaction, a reactor or the like is used. As the reactor used in the present invention, a cylindrical reactor equipped with a thermometer, a stirrer, a cooling device and the like is preferably used.

回分式反応の場合、重合反応の際に、重合物の粘度が高くなるため、除熱、拡散、反応促進のため撹拌機として、工業的にはパドル翼や高粘度用撹拌翼、例えばマックスブレンド翼(住友重機械工業(株)製)などが用いられ、好適にはマックスブレンド翼である。また重合により発生した反応熱を除去できるように熱媒を流すための冷却装置が付いた反応器、例えば外部ジャケット付反応器などが好適に用いられる。ジャケット式除熱の効率化を図るため縦チューブ型冷却器を用いることもでき、エチレンイミンを還流下で重合するのが好適である。   In the case of batch reaction, the viscosity of the polymer is increased during the polymerization reaction, so as a stirrer for heat removal, diffusion, and reaction promotion, industrially paddle blades and high viscosity stirring blades such as Max Blend A wing (manufactured by Sumitomo Heavy Industries, Ltd.) or the like is used, and a max blend wing is preferable. A reactor equipped with a cooling device for flowing a heat medium so that reaction heat generated by the polymerization can be removed, such as a reactor with an external jacket, is preferably used. In order to increase the efficiency of jacket-type heat removal, a vertical tube type cooler can be used, and it is preferable to polymerize ethyleneimine under reflux.

Good, preferably 2 kW / m 3 or more. If it exceeds 10 kW / m 3 , the energy cost increases and it is not economical.

Specifically, for example, after completion of the polymerization reaction, water is evaporated and removed from the ethyleneimine polymer aqueous solution with stirring at a temperature at which the temperature in the reactor does not exceed 200 ° C., preferably in the range of 100 to 180 ° C. Although there is no restriction | limiting in particular about the degree of evaporation removal of water (degree of concentration of aqueous solution), As mentioned later, the density | concentration (resin content) of the ethyleneimine polymer in ethyleneimine polymer aqueous solution is 20-70 mass% normally. Since the preferred range is 30 to 50% by mass, the water in the ethyleneimine polymer aqueous solution may be removed by evaporation so as to be within this range. Thereby, when using as a crude ethyleneimine raw material obtained by the vapor phase method, a high-purity ethyleneimine polymer aqueous solution in which the contents of light amines and acetonitrile are both 1 ppm or less can be obtained.

Preferably it is 40-60 mass%, Most preferably, it is 30-50 mass%. When the amount is 20% by mass or less, the product stability tends to decrease. If it exceeds 70% by mass, the viscosity is too high and handling becomes difficult.
