Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain an oil-solidifying agent which can absorb a large amt. of an oil and solidifies the oil to such a degree that the resulting solid can be easily recovered by using two block copolymers. CONSTITUTION:A powdered oil-solidifying agent comprises two styrene- butadiene-styrene block copolymers each having styrene polymer blocks at both molecular ends and a mol.wt. of 5X10<4> or higher. One of the block copolymers has a ratio of styrene units to butadiene units of 20/80 or lower; the other, 40/60 or higher.

2. Description of the Related Art With the recent increase in petroleum consumption, the number of leak accidents during mining, transportation and storage increases, and the scale of the accident tends to increase. Also, oil leaks are constantly occurring in Offshore (offshore) oil fields, natural gas fields, and oil shipping ports. Due to such accidents, not only the enormous economic burden on the accident party but also the influence on the biological system due to environmental pollution has become a serious problem.

A well-known oil adsorbent is an amino acid-based product, but its hardness is insufficient to recover the gelled product after adsorption with a tool such as a net. Since dibenzylidene sorbitol dissolved in an organic solvent as a synthetic organic substance is flammable, it is difficult to handle and the solvent itself becomes a pollution source. Although the powdery material of polynorbornene is a product with few defects, it is costly and not suitable for use in a large amount.

Adsorption occurs at the same time as charging, but if kerosene is present in excess, the interface between unadsorbed kerosene and solidified matter is always soft, and recovery of the solidified matter is somewhat difficult. However, in the combination of styrene / butadiene composition ratio of the copolymers of 20/80 and 45/55, the larger the molecular weight of both copolymers, the better the adsorption amount and the hardness of the solidified product. In this combination, the weight of the solidified product after standing for 30 minutes was 25 gr.
