Abstract
Description
- This application claims priority of Taiwanese Patent Application No. 108123215, filed on Jul. 2, 2019.
- The present disclosure relates to a method for purifying a crude 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid composition, and more particularly to a method for purifying a crude 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid composition that includes 2-furoic acid.
- 2,5-furandicarboxyclic acid (FDCA) is a compound that can be produced from biomass without requiring chemical refinement, and thus is production is regarded as adhering to the concepts of green chemistry. FDCA can be used as a bio-based alternative to terephthalic acid, which is a raw material in the production of polyethylene terephthalate (PET). In fact, as compared with PET, polyethylene furanoate (PEF) , which is a chemical analogue of PET and is produced from FDCA, exhibits even intrinsically higher gas barrier properties for oxygen, water vapor, carbon dioxide, etc.
- Conventionally, the industrial method for synthesizing FDCA which adheres to the concepts of green chemistry, involves catalytic oxidation of furan derivatives (e.g., 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), 5-(alkoxymethyl)furfural (RMF), etc.) that are produced from the dehydration of saccharides. However, the thus obtained crude FDCA (cFDCA) usually contains impurities of derivatives, particularly monocarboxylic acid species such as 2-furoic acid (2-FA). If the cFDCA is not further purified, the impurities of furan derivatives contained therein may cause an undesirable effect of terminating the chain growth of a polymer, resulting in a low polymer viscosity of the thus obtained. PEF which may in turn affect the thermoplastic properties thereof.
- U.S. Pat. No. 8,969,404 B2 discloses a process for purifying crude FDCA composition by subjecting solvated FDCA composition to hydrogenation reaction so to form other types of water-soluble furan derivatives, which are then separated from water-insoluble FDCA. However, a high temperature (around 170° C.), a high hydrogen partial pressure and an expensive catalyst such as palladium on carbon (Pd/C), etc. are indispensible in the hydrogenation reaction of the purifying process.
- Therefore, an object of the present disclosure is to provide a method for purifying a crude 2,5-furandicarboxyclic acid composition which can alleviate at least one of the drawbacks of the prior art.
- According to the present disclosure, the crude 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid composition includes 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid and furan derivatives which contain 2-furoic acid. The method includes the steps of:
-
- (a) mixing the crude 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid composition with a solvent solution that includes alcohol to obtain a mixture;
- (b) heating the mixture to permit full dissolution of the crude 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid composition in the solvent solution; and
- (c) cooling the mixture to permit recrystallization of the 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid from the mixture so as to obtain purified 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid.
- According to the present disclosure, a method for purifying a crude 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid composition includes the following steps (a) to (c). The crude 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid composition includes 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid and furan derivatives which contain 2-furoic acid.
- In step (a), the crude 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid composition is mixed with a solvent solution that includes alcohol to obtain a mixture.
- In step (b), the mixture is heated to permit full dissolution of the crude 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid composition in the solvent solution.
- In step (c), the mixture is cooled to permit recrystallization of the 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid from the mixture, so as to obtain purified 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid.
- Examples of the alcohol may include, but are not limited to, methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, and combinations thereof. In certain embodiments, the alcohol is ethanol.
- In certain embodiments, the solvent solution further includes water. In an exemplary embodiment, in the solvent solution, a weight ratio of the alcohol to water ranges from 5:1 to 5:5.
- In certain embodiments, in step (b), the mixture is heated to a first temperature ranging from 40° C. to 120° C.
- In certain embodiments, in step (c), the mixture is cooled to a second temperature ranging from 0° C. to 30° C.
- In certain embodiments, the method further includes, after step (c), a step (d) of removing the 2-furoic acid. In an exemplary embodiment, step (d) includes the sub-steps of: (d1) collecting the purified 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid by filtration; and (d2) drying the purified 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid at a third temperature ranging from 80° C. to 130° C.

TABLE 2 2-FA removal FDCA percentage percentage (%) purity (%) E1 85 99.9 E2 81 99.8 E3 69 99.7 E4 55 99.5 E5 92 99.8 E6 92 99.8 E7 88 99.7 E8 81 99.8 E9 88 99.8 E10 80 99.7 E11 >99 99.8 E12 >99 99.9 E13 >99 99.9 E14 91 99.8 E15 94 99.9 P16 96 99.9 E17 88 99.8 CE1 7 99.2 CE2 >99 99.9 - As shown in Table 2, in each of E1 to E17, the 2-FA removal percentage is higher than 55%, and the percentage purity of FDCA is higher than 99.5%, indicating that 2-FA was effectively removed from the FDCA composition, thereby obtaining a highly purified FDCA. In contrast, the 2-FA removal percentage in CE1 is merely 7%, and the FDCA percentage purity is 99.2%, indicating that effective removal of 2-FA during purification of cFDCA composition was not achieved, and a highly purified FDCA cannot be obtained by the method of CE1. Although a high 2-FA removal percentage and a high FDCA percentage purity may be achieved in CE2, complete dissolution of the cFDCA composition in the solvent solution is required to be conducted at a relatively high temperature (i.e., 170° C.).
- In summary, by virtue of the method for purifying cFDCA composition of the present disclosure, which utilizes simple procedures and mild conditions, furan derivatives such as 2-FA, can be effectively removed, thereby obtaining FDCA with high purity.
- In the description above, for the purposes of explanation, numerous specific details have been set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the embodiments . It will be apparent, however, to one skilled in the art, that one or more other embodiments may be practiced without some of these specific details. It should also be appreciated that reference throughout this specification to “one embodiment,” “an embodiment,” an embodiment with an indication of an ordinal number and so forth means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic may be included in the practice of the disclosure. It should be further appreciated that in the description, various features are sometimes grouped together in a single embodiment, figure, or description thereof for the purpose of streamlining the present disclosure and aiding in the understanding of various inventive aspects, and that one or more features or specific details from one embodiment may be practiced together with one or more features or specific details from another embodiment, where appropriate, in the practice of the disclosure.
- While the present disclosure has been described in connection with what are considered the exemplary embodiments, it is understood that this disclosure is not limited to the disclosed embodiments but is intended to cover various arrangements included within the spirit and scope of the broadest interpretation so as to encompass all such modifications and equivalent arrangements.
