Description

 BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method for producing a polyoxymethylene polymer and a polyoxymethylene polymer prepared by the method,

The present invention relates to a process for producing a polyoxymethylene polymer and a polyoxymethylene polymer produced by the process, and more particularly, to a process for producing a polyoxymethylene polymer by using a novel polymerization catalyst and a polymerization terminator, The present invention relates to a process for producing a polyoxymethylene polymer which can be omitted or simplified, has excellent thermal stability and can reduce formaldehyde released during the production process, and a polyoxymethylene polymer produced by the process.

Generally, the polyoxymethylene resin is prepared by bulk polymerization, solution polymerization or suspension of trioxane alone or trioxane and cyclic ether and / or cyclic acetal to prepare an oxymethylene homopolymer or copolymer. Such a method is disclosed in Korean Patent Laid-Open No. 10-2002-0074490 (Patent Document 1).

However, polymers obtained by such bulk polymerization, solution polymerization, or suspension polymerization are thermally unstable in themselves. Therefore, in the case of homopolymers, end groups are blocked by esterification or the like, and in the case of copolymers, unstable terminal groups are decomposed To stabilize the polymer, and it is necessary to stop the polymerization reaction by inactivating the catalyst prior to such stabilization step. That is, if the catalyst remaining in the reaction product in the oxime-methylene homopolymer and copolymer obtained by cation polymerization of trioxane or the like is not deactivated, the polymerization is gradually depolymerized, and the molecular weight of the polymer is remarkably lowered, resulting in a very unstable thermal state.

With respect to the deactivation of such a catalyst, JP-A-1994-211953 (Patent Document 2) proposes the use of an amine compound and a fluoride of an alkali metal as a BF 3 polymerization catalyst release agent, In the case of deactivation, the depolymerization can be prevented by removing the deflocculant through a separate washing step or the like, and the polymer is stabilized and the molecular weight is not lowered during long-term storage.

As described above, in order to solve the problems of the prior art, there has been developed a polymerization catalyst which can be completely deactivated and an activator capable of effectively completely deactivating such a polymerization catalyst, thereby eliminating the need for a cleaning process for removing the polymerization catalyst or deflocculant , A method for producing a polyoxymethylene polymer having excellent heat stability and few unstable portions is required.

The formate group is a typical unstable terminal of a polyoxymethylene polymer. The higher the value, the more easily depolymerization occurs and the thermal stability is poor.

3. Formaldehyde emission measurement (HS-GC method)

3 g of the polyoxymethylene polymer sample pellet of the present invention is subjected to quantitative analysis by using Headspace GC (Agilent 7890A) at a temperature of 185 ° C for 1 hour and then the generated formaldehyde gas is quantitatively analyzed. The higher the value, the worse the thermal stability.

The polyoxymethylene polymer of the present invention was prepared by making a test piece having a surface area of 100 cm 2 and immersing it in a 3 wt% acetic acid solution at 40 ° C for 10 days. The extract solution was applied to UV-VIS (Perkin-Elmer) . This value represents the degree of depolymerization of the polyoxymethylene polymer by acetic acid, and the higher the value, the higher the depolymerization rate.
