- the filtrate obtained from filtration was concentrated by removing a solvent. After adding methyl acetate as much as the solvent removed to the concentrated solution above, the filtrate obtained from filtration was cooled at room temperature while slowly stirring for 1 hour to precipitate a crystal of the 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid amine salt. After filtering the resultant solution containing the crystal and separating, the mixture obtained is placed at 90 °C for 1 hour for removing the solvent to yield a purified 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid.
- the purified 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid is obtained by the same manner as used in Example 4 above, except using ethyl acetate as a solvent added after concentrating.
- ethyl acetate is suitable nonsolvent when not necessary for high purity in the aspect of economy.
- the purified 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid is obtained by the same manner as used in Example 4 above, except using acetone as a solvent added after concentrating.
- Example 7 In a container (SUS-316, 10 L), a crude 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid (750 g), triethyl amine (900 g) added at room temperature under atmospheric pressure. To the container, it was added 2885 g of mixture of methanol, water, methyl acetate in a ratio of 17.5:2.5:80.0 by weight, and stirred at 70 °C , 3 atm. for 30 minutes to prepare a mixing solution of 2,6- naphthalene dicarboxylic acid amine salt.
- SUS-316, 10 L a crude 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid (750 g), triethyl amine (900 g) added at room temperature under atmospheric pressure. To the container, it was added 2885 g of mixture of methanol, water, methyl acetate in a ratio of 17.5:2.5:80.0 by weight, and stirred at 70 °C , 3 atm. for 30 minutes to prepare a mixing solution
- the mixing solution was filtered through cartridge filter (pore size: 5 ⁇ m) at 70°C to eliminate undissolved impurities, and thus an obtained filtrate was added in a crystallizer (SUS-316, 20 L) and then crystallized it.
- a flashing method used to increase a crystalline yield of 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid amine salt, which it performs cooling to room temperature and concentrating at the same time.
- Example 7 Prepared in a similar manner as Example 7 to give a purified 2,6- naphthalene dicarboxylic acid, except but a mixed solvent was used methanol:water:methyl acetate in a ratio of 17.5 : 4.5 : 78.0 by weight.
- Example 4 Seen from the Table 4, the yield is very high over 90% in Example to 9 and the purity is high 99.86% to 99.82%, as well.
- a purity of 99.92% means that 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid contains impurities about 800 ppm. This result leads molecular weight of polyester to increase more about 5 times than that in Comparative example 1 and to synthesize a copolymer comprising 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid in a high content.
- this invention is environmentally friendly and has energy-saving effects. Further, it enables to refine pure 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid in an easy, fast and economical way by eliminating the naphthoic acid, formyl naphthoic acid, catalyst compounds, etc. remaining in impure 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid.
