This invention relates to the production of tripolyphosphates.
It is an object of this invention to speed up, in the production of tripolyphosphates by heat treating a phosphate for calcination, the conversion reaction by catalytic action.
Hitherto polyphosphates have been produced by smelting'down orthophosphates or mixtures of orthophosphates with anhydrous phosphates or mixtures of diflerent anhydrous phosphates and holding the molten mass for some time at a temperature below its melting point.
Polyphosphates have also been produced by heating phosphate mixtures to a temperature below the melting point, starting as a rule from solutions of the orthophosphates which are first calcined and then converted into polyphosphate in the same or a further process stage. According to U. S. patent specifications No. 2,419,147 and No. 2,419,148 calcination of the orthophosphate mixture and its conversion into tripolyphosphate is effected in a single operation by spraying the solution of the orthophosphate inside a rotating tube across a flame onto heated tn'polyphosphate obtained in a previous operation and continuing the heating in the rotating tube for a certain period of time.
The methods hereabove described involve several drawbacks. In none of these prior methods the components of the reaction mass can be completely converted into tripolyphosphate. With a higher alkaline pH adjustment considerable quantities of tetrasodium pyrophosphate are formed. With an acid pH adjustment trimetaphosphate and Maddrells salt are formed. With a new tral' pH adjustment all these components are present as a rule in the product of reaction.
Maddrells salt is undesirable in the product in view of its insolubility. Pyrophosphate and trimetaphosphate lower the complex binding capacity relative to calcium and thereby impair the utility of the product.
Apart therefrom, it is not possible to convert phosphates by the processes hitherto available to a practically useful extent into polyphosphatcs at temperatures of or below 300 C. Tests made with an orthophosphate mixture of the kind usually adopted as starting material, when heating it to 260 C. for 6 /2 hours only yielded 20% of NasPaOio, which were accompanied by 64% pyrophosphate, 14% trimetaphosphatc and 2% Maddrells salt. A mixture of this constitution cannot be termed a If heating is continued for a longer mained stationary, but the content of insoluble Maddrells salt rose. Since at temperatures above 300 C. the formation of Maddrells salt, which is particularly undesirable, is greatly favored, any process operable at a temperature below 300 C. olfers a great interest.
Ihave now found that the conversion of the starting mixture of phosphates into tripolyphosphate can be improved considerably by catalytic action, if to the mixture are added, either before or after its calcination, nitrogen compounds which when heated with the phosphate mixture, develop gaseous decomposition products.
A speeding up of the reaction can already be obtained by the addition of nitrates, for instance alkali metal nitrates and better still nitrates of alkaline earth metals, of aluminum or of ammonium.
The presence of nitric acid or of the nitrates in the production of tripolyphosphates has never been'described. If oxidation agents including also nitric acid were present in the production of pyrophosphates, such agents were merely added for the purpose of decomposing organic compounds and thereby improving the color of the prodnet.
It has however not been known that the spee'dofformation of tripolyphosphates can be raised by-such additions. If this speeding up of the reaction is intended. by adding nitrates, but not other nitrogen compoundsfthe percentage ofsuch nitrates must be considerably higher and must exceed 0.5%.
An addition of amidophosphoric acid is still more favorable, but the highest speed of reaction is obtained by the use of compounds in which the nitrogen is'bound 'to carbon, such'as urea, guanidine, dicyandiamide, semicarbazide andhexamethylenetetramine. l have found that it isadvisable to use these compounds in the'formof their nitrates or in solution in nitricacid.
Thepresence of such additions renders-it possible to eifect a complete conversion of the starting phosphate mixture into tripolyphosphate at a temperature of 250 C.
In this manner of proceeding, tripolyphosphates of a high degree of purity which formen'tirely clear andlimpid solutions, are obtained with a high degree of heat economy.
The eifect exerted in this reaction. by the catalysts is not'limited to temperatures of or below 300 C. I have made sure of this by the following tests.
The mixture containing orthophosphate calcined by spraying together with urea dissolved in nitric acid was heated in a shallow bowl in a muffle furnace. Another bowl was heated in this furnace'in the same operation which contained the same orthophosphate mixture, however -no catalyst. After 30 minutes heating to -400 C. the mixture containing the catalyst was found to contain 97% NasPzOm, while the mixture free from the catalyst contained only 87%. After one hours heating to 400 C. the percentages of tripolyphosphate had not risen any further which means that the maximum had been reached after half an hour. On the other hand, the mixture containing the catalyst had been converted practically completely into tripolyphosphate, whereas the mixture free from the catalyst contained also a mixture of pyro and trirnetaphosphate.
When heated 30 minutes to 400 C., the mixture to which the catalytic material had been added, contained 95.5% tripolyphosphate, while the mixture free from catalytic material only contained 87%, which after another half an hours heating rose to 91%. After one ,Lho'ur's heating of the material containing the catalyst, 95% were Na5P3O1u. In other words, a 30 minutes treatment at 460 C. was excessively long.
When heated to 540 C, the material containing the catalyst after 30 minutes showed a content of 96% NasPsOm, while the material free from the catalyst contained only 93.5%. This'shows that even at a temperature of 540 C. the catalyst exerted a noticeable .etfect of speeding up the reaction and raising the yield.
Apart from the'shortening of the reaction period and the saving of heat energy, the presence. of thecatalystalso offered another important advantage. It was found that in this manner the low-temperature modification of the tripolyphosphate would be obtained in a rotary furnace. As is well known, the low-temperature modification as compared with the high-temperature modification, oifers the advantage of possessing a higher solubility. In an orthophosphate mixture containing no catalytic material in order to avoid unduly long periods of reaction it becomes necessary to raise the temperature, with the effect that a formation of the high-temperature modification can scarcely be avoided.
The catalysts mentioned above remain effective also if the proportion of alkali metal, for instance NazO to the phosphoric acid is higher or lower than the proportion of 5:3 which must be present when producing sodium tripolyphosphate. If more alkali is present, i. e. if for instance more than 2 mols disodium phosphate are present per mol of monosodium phosphate, heating to higher temperatures will yield mixtures of pyrophosphate and tripolyphosphate. At lower temperatures, for instance at 300 C., it is not possible to obtain besides pyrophosphate also tripolyphosphate. If however one of the catalysts mentioned above is added then, besides pyrophosphate also tripolyphosphate is formed with the theoretical yield. An addition of sodium nitrate or nitric acid has been found particularly useful in such a case.
The presence of the catalysts renders it also possible to proceed in a different manner. If the conditions of conversion are suitably chosen, the conversion into polyphosphate occurs almost instantly. The drying, calcining and converting into polyphosphate can be carried through in this manner in a single operation, for instance by spraying a solution of orthophosphate at a suitable temperature into a column with the result that the formation of the polyphosphate occurs within a few seconds.
This new way of proceeding is differentiated from the processes described in the U. S. patent specifications mentioned hereabove by the fact that in the old processes the spraying of the starting mixture leads first to the formation of calcined orthophosphate which is converted into tripolyphosphate only after one hours heating in the rotary furnace.
The treatment of the phosphate material with products of decomposition of nitrogen compounds can also be carried out in such manner that during the heating of the starting mixture, for instance in a rotary tube, the gases, such as for instance N02 or N20 which result in the decomposition of the nitrogen compounds, are conducted into contact with the starting mixture whereby a considerable speeding up of the formation of the tripolyphosphate is obtained also.
In practicing my invention I may for instance proceed as follows:
- EXAMPLE 1 10.97 kgs. NHH2PO4.H2O are molten together with 50 kgs. Na2HPO4.12H2O and to the molten mass is added a solution of 306 grams urea in 1020 grams concentrated nitric acid. This mixture is sprayed for calcination onto a roller and the dry mixture is then conveyed through a rotating tube heated from within, the maximum temperature ascertained in the material escaping from the tube being 260 C. The reaction mass passed through the furnace within minutes. The product thus obtained forms limpid solutions in water and contains P205 almost exclusively in the form of sodium tripolyphosphate.
EXAMPLE 2 12 kg. anhydrous monosodiumphosphate (NaH2PO4.2H20) and 28.4 kg. anhydrous disodiumphosphate (NazHPO4.12H-z0) are molten together with 1 kg. guanidine nitrate and 0.5
kg. conc. nitric acid, and dried on a calcination roller. The dry powder is then treated one and a half hour in a muffle furnace at a temperature of about 260 C. In this way substantially the whole orthophosphate is converted in tripolyphosphate Whereas without the addition of the guanidine nitrate and nitric acid only about 20% tripolyphosphate would have been formed.
EXAMPLE 3 1000 kg. technical phosphoric acid containing 20% P205, which has been obtained by the conversion of phosphate rocks with sulfuric acid are treated with 20 kg. conc. nitric acid and then mixed at a temperature of 90 C. with soda ash by stirring until a pH value 8.28.4 has been obtained, whereupon the mass is filtered. The filtrate is concentrated and reduced to a dry powder by a spray dryer. This powder is passed at a temperature of about 300 C. through the rotary kiln, the mass being left in the oven for about 20 minutes. A mixture is obtained consisting of sodium tripolyphosphate and tetrasodiurnpyrophosphate. The composition of this mixture with respect to the two compounds mentioned above may be calculated from the ratio NazOzPzOe. Without the addition of the nitric acid substantially no tripolyphosphate would have been formed.
EXAMPLE 4 Example 2 was repeated but a mixture of one mole sodiumphosphate and 2 moles of disodiumphosphate, mixed together with 2.47% nitric acid (d.=l.42) and 1.24% dicyandiamide was used. By calcination in the manner mentioned above there were obtained 97% tripolyphosphate.
EXAMPLE 5 Example 2 was repeated with a mixture consisting of 1 mole monosodium phosphate, 2 moles disodiumphosphate, and 1.113% nitric acid (d.=l.42). There was obtained a product which contained 92% tripolyphosphate.
EXAMPLE 6 Example 2 was repeated using a mixture consisting of one mole monosodiumphosphate and two moles disodiumphopshate, 4.03% nitric acid and 1.213% urea. The mixture was calcinated at a temperature of about 460 C. for about half an hour. The obtained product contained 97.5% tripolyphosphate.
EXAMPLE 7 A mixture of 400 kg. disodiumphosphate (Na2HPO4.12H2O) and 41 kg. monosodiumphosphate (NaHzPOaJHzO), 2.7 kg. urea and 8.4 kg. nitric acid (d.=1.38) is molten together and calcinated in a spray dryer, until dry. The obtained product was sent into a rotary kiln and .treated at a temperature of about 300 C. A product was obtained, 36% of which consisted of tripolyphosphate whereas the remainder of the P205 content was sodium pyrophosphate.
EXAMPLE 8 A mixture of 10.2 g. monopotassiumphosphate (KH2P04) 27 g. monosodiumphosphate (NaH2PO4) and g. disodiumphosphate was dissolved in ccm. water, then dried on a calcination roller and exposed 1 /2 hours in a covered pan to a temperature of 260 C. 42% of the product recovered were potassium-sodium tripolyphosphate.
EXAMPLE 9 To the same solution were added 1.5 g. urea and 2.5 gnit ic acid of a density of 1.39, the same treatment resulted in the recovery of a product, 91% of which were potassium-sodium-tripolyphosphate.
Various changes may be made in the composition of the starting material and the catalytic agents as well as in the manner of treating them, without departing from the invention or sacrificing the advantages thereof.
