U.S. Patent No. 4,880,903 discloses a linear alternating polyketone terpolymer consisting of carbon monoxide, ethylene and terephthalic unsaturated hydrocarbons such as propylene. The process for preparing the polyketone polymer is generally carried out by reacting a compound of a Group VIII metal selected from among palladium, cobalt or nickel with an anion of a strong halogen-hydrohalogentic acid, , Phosphorus, arsenic, or antimony (Antimon).

Examples of aryl aliphatic hydrocarbons in ethylenically unsaturated hydrocarbons include styrene, p-methyl styrene, p-ethyl styrene and m-isopropyl styrene. The polyketone polymer preferably used in the present invention is a copolymer of carbon monoxide and ethene or a second ethylenically unsaturated hydrocarbon having carbon monoxide, ethene and at least three carbon atoms, in particular alpha-olefins such as propene Is a terpolymer.

When the polyketone terpolymer is used as the main polymer component of the blend of the present invention, there are at least two units containing an ethylene moiety in each unit containing the second hydrocarbon moiety in the terpolymer. It is preferable that the number of units containing the second hydrocarbon moiety is from 10 to 100.

In the above formula (1), G is an ethylenically unsaturated hydrocarbon, particularly a portion obtained from an ethylenically unsaturated hydrocarbon having at least three carbon atoms, and x: y is at least 2: 1.

In the above, when y is 0, it may be represented by the following general formula (2), and it becomes a copolymer and does not contain the second ethylenic unsaturated hydrocarbon.

And

The units of formula (2) are randomly applied throughout the polymer chain. The preferred y: x ratio is from 0.01 to 0.5. The terminal root, or "cap ", of the polymeric ring is determined depending on what material is present during the preparation of the polymer and how the polymer will be purified or the polymer will be purified.

Particularly preferred are polyketone polymers having a number average molecular weight of from 100 to 200,000, especially from 20,000 to 90,000, as measured by gel permeation chromatography. The physical properties of the polymer are determined according to the molecular weight, depending on whether the polymer is a copolymer or a terpolymer and, in the case of a terpolymer, the properties of the second hydrocarbon part. The melting point of the total of the polymers used in the present invention is 175 ° C to 300 ° C, and generally 210 ° C to 270 ° C. The intrinsic viscosity (LVN) of the polymer measured by HFIP (Hexafluoroisopropylalcohol) at 60 DEG C using a standard tubular viscosity measuring device is 0.5 dl / g to 10 dl / g, preferably 0.8 dl / g to 4 dl / g, Preferably 1.2 dl / g to 2.0 dl / g.

It is considered that the high molecular weight product of the copolymerized polyketone having three or more members is more useful as an engineering plastic material having higher workability and thermal properties and having excellent economy. Particularly, it has high abrasion resistance and can be used in light gasoline tanks because of high gas barrier properties such as parts of gears of automobiles, high chemical resistance, and lining materials of chemical transport pipes. In the case of using an ultrahigh molecular weight polyketone having an intrinsic viscosity of 2 or more as the fiber, it is possible to conduct stretching at a high magnification and to have a high strength and a high modulus of elasticity oriented in the stretching direction as belts, reinforcements of rubber hoses, tire cords, And is suitable for use in building materials and industrial materials.

The production method of polyketone is carried out in the presence of an organometallic complex catalyst comprising (a) a Group 9, 10 or 11 transition metal compound, and (b) a ligand having an element of Group 15 elements, A process for producing a polyketone by terephthalic copolymerization of an ethylenic and a propylenically unsaturated compound is characterized in that a mixed solvent of 70 to 90% by volume of acetic acid and 10 to 30% by volume of water is used as a liquid medium and benzophenone .

Here, the liquid medium is characterized in that a mixed solvent of acetic acid and water is used without using methanol, dichloromethane, or nitromethane, which has conventionally been used for producing polyketones. This is because the use of a mixed solvent of acetic acid and water as a liquid medium for the production of polyketone can improve the catalytic activity while reducing the manufacturing cost of the polyketone.

When a mixed solvent of acetic acid and water is used as a liquid medium, when the concentration of water is less than 10% by volume, the effect of the catalyst is less affected. When the concentration of water is 10% by volume or more, the catalytic activity increases sharply. On the other hand, when the concentration of water exceeds 30% by volume, the catalytic activity tends to decrease. Therefore, it is preferable to use a mixed solvent comprising 70 to 90% by volume of acetic acid and 10 to 30% by volume of water as the liquid medium

As a result, the present invention has been able to provide a novel polyketone polymerization catalyst having the highest activity as a polyketone polymerization catalyst of the present invention, while further reducing its manufacturing cost and cost. A method for producing a ligand for a polyketone polymerization catalyst is as follows. ((2,2-dimethyl) -2,3-dioxolane was obtained by using bis (2-methoxyphenyl) phosphine, 5,5-bis (bromomethyl) Bis (bis (methylene)) bis (bis (2-methoxyphenyl) phosphine) is obtained by reacting a bis (methylene) . The process for preparing a ligand for a polyketone polymerization catalyst according to the present invention is a process for producing a ligand for a polyketone polymerization catalyst which comprises reacting 3,3-bis- [bis- (2-methoxyphenyl) phosphanylmethyl] -1,5-dioxa-spiro [5,5] ((2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-5,5-diyl) bis (methylene)) bis (bis (2- Methoxyphenyl) phosphine) can be commercially synthesized in a large amount.

In a preferred embodiment, the process for preparing a ligand for a polyketone polymerization catalyst of the present invention comprises: (a) introducing bis (2-methoxyphenyl) phosphine and dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) into a reaction vessel under nitrogen atmosphere, Adding sodium and stirring; (b) adding 5,5-bis (bromomethyl) -2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane and dimethylsulfoxide to the resulting mixture, followed by stirring and reacting; (c) adding methanol and stirring after completion of the reaction; (d) adding toluene and water, separating the layers, washing the oil layer with water, drying with anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtering under reduced pressure, and concentrating under reduced pressure; And (e) the residue was recrystallized from methanol to obtain ((2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-5,5- diyl) bis (methylene)) bis (bis (2- methoxyphenyl) And a step of acquiring the image data.

The amount of the Group 9, Group 10 or Group 11 transition metal compound (a) to be used varies depending on the kinds of the ethylenic and propylenically unsaturated compounds to be selected and other polymerization conditions. Therefore, But it is usually from 0.01 to 100 mmol, preferably from 0.01 to 10 mmol, per 1 liter of the reaction zone. The capacity of the reaction zone means the liquid phase capacity of the reactor. The amount of the ligand (b) to be used is not particularly limited, but is usually 0.1 to 3 mol, preferably 1 to 3 mol, per 1 mol of the transition metal compound (a).

Further, the addition of benzophenone in the polymerization of the polyketone is another characteristic. In the present invention, an effect of improving the intrinsic viscosity of the polyketone can be achieved by adding benzophenone in the polymerization of the polyketone. The molar ratio of (a) the ninth, tenth, or eleventh transition metal compound to benzophenone is 1: 5-100, preferably 1:40-60. If the molar ratio of the transition metal to the benzophenone is less than 1: 5, the effect of improving the intrinsic viscosity of the produced polyketone is unsatisfactory. If the molar ratio of the transition metal to the benzophenone exceeds 1: 100, It is not preferable because it tends to decrease

Examples of the ethylenically unsaturated compound copolymerized with carbon monoxide include ethylene, propylene, 1-butene, 1-hexene, 4-methyl-1-pentene, 1-octene, -Olefins such as hexadecene and vinylcyclohexane; Alkenyl aromatic compounds such as styrene and? -Methylstyrene; But are not limited to, cyclopentene, norbornene, 5-methylnorbornene, 5-phenylnorbornene, tetracyclododecene, tricyclododecene, tricyclodecene, pentacyclopentadecene, pentacyclohexadecene, Cyclic olefins such as cyclododecene; Vinyl halides such as vinyl chloride; Ethyl acrylate, and acrylates such as methyl acrylate. Of these, preferred ethylenically unsaturated compounds are? -Olefins, more preferably? -Olefins having 2 to 4 carbon atoms, most preferably ethylene, and 1 to 20 mol% of propylene is added in the production of the terpolymerized polyketone.

Here, it is preferable to adjust the charging ratio of the carbon monoxide and the ethylenic unsaturated compound to 1: 1 to 2 (molar ratio) and to adjust the propylene to 1 to 20 mol% based on the total mixed gas. In the production of polyketones, it is general to set the mixing ratio of carbon monoxide and ethylenic unsaturated compound to 1: 1. However, in the present invention in which a mixed solvent of acetic acid and water is used as a liquid medium and benzophenone is added during polymerization, It has been found that when the feed ratio of the unsaturated compound is adjusted to 1: 1 to 2 and the propylene is adjusted to 1 to 20 mol% based on the total mixed gas, not only the processability but also the catalyst activity and the intrinsic viscosity can be simultaneously achieved. When the amount of propylene is less than 1 mol%, the effect of the ternary copolymerization to lower the melting temperature can not be obtained. When the amount exceeds 20 mol%, the intrinsic viscosity and the improvement of the catalytic activity are inhibited, so that the addition ratio is adjusted to 1 to 20 mol% .

In addition, in the polymerization step, a mixed solvent of acetic acid and water is used as a liquid medium, benzophenone is added during polymerization, and carbon monoxide, an ethylenic unsaturated compound and one or more olefinic unsaturated compounds are introduced, But it is also possible to prepare a terpolymerized polyketone having a high intrinsic viscosity only in a polymerization time of about 1 to 2 hours, unlike the prior art which requires a polymerization time of at least 10 hours to improve the intrinsic viscosity Do.

Wherein the carbon monoxide and the ethylenically unsaturated compound and the propylenically unsaturated compound are copolymerized with an organometallic complex comprising a ligand (b) having an element of group 9, group 10 or group 11 transition metal compound (a) or group 15 Catalyzed, the catalyst is produced by contacting the two components. Any method may be employed as the method of contacting. That is, the solution may be prepared as a solution in which two components are premixed in a suitable solvent, or the two components may be supplied separately to the polymerization system and contacted in the polymerization system. In this case, the molar ratio of the ethylenically unsaturated compound and the propylenically unsaturated compound is preferably 99: 1 to 85:15. If the molar ratio of propylene is less than 1%, it is difficult to process the molded part, and if it exceeds 15% There is a problem that the mechanical properties are deteriorated.

In the present invention, conventionally known additives such as an antioxidant, a stabilizer, a filler, a refractory material, a releasing agent, a coloring agent, and other materials may be further added to improve the processability and physical properties of the polymer.

As the polymerization method, a solution polymerization method using a liquid medium, a suspension polymerization method, a vapor phase polymerization method in which a small amount of a polymer is impregnated with a high concentration catalyst solution, and the like are used. The polymerization may be either batchwise or continuous. The reactor used in the polymerization can be used as it is or in a known manner. The polymerization temperature is not particularly limited, and is generally 40 to 180 占 폚, preferably 50 to 120 占 폚. The pressure at the time of polymerization is not particularly limited, but is generally from normal pressure to 20 MPa, preferably from 4 to 15 MPa.

A linear alternating polyketone is formed by the polymerization method as described above.
