Definitions
- the invention provides for methods to convert vegetable and/or animal oils (e.g. soybean oil) to highly functionalized alcohols in essentially quantitative yields by an ozonolysis process.
- the functionalized alcohols are useful for further reaction to produce polyesters and polyurethanes.
- the invention provides a process that is able to utilize renewable resources such as oils and fats derived from plants and animals.
- Polyols are very useful for the production of polyurethane-based coatings and foams as well as polyester applications.
- Soybean oil which is composed primarily of unsaturated fatty acids, is a potential precursor for the production of polyols by adding hydroxyl functionality to its numerous double bonds. It is desirable that this hydroxyl functionality be primary rather than secondary to achieve enhanced polyol reactivity in the preparation of polyurethanes and polyesters from isocyanates and carboxylic acids, anhydrides, acid chlorides or esters, respectively.
- One disadvantage of soybean oil that needs a viable solution is the fact that about 16 percent of its fatty acids are saturated and thus not readily amenable to hydroxylation.
- soybean oil modification uses hydroformylation to add hydrogen and formyl groups across its double bonds, followed by reduction of these formyl groups to hydroxymethyl groups. Whereas this approach does produce primary hydroxyl groups, disadvantages include the fact that expensive transition metal catalysts are needed in both steps and only one hydroxyl group is introduced per original double bond. Monohydroxylation of soybean oil by epoxidation followed by hydrogenation or direct double bond hydration (typically accompanied with undesired triglyceride hydrolysis) results in generation of one secondary hydroxyl group per original double bond.
- a method for producing an ester polyol includes oxididatively cleaving an unsaturated fatty acid derived from a biobased oil so that substantially all carbon double bonds are converted to carboxylic acid groups; and esterifying the carboxylic acid with a primary polyol to form a secondary polyol or with a monoalcohol to form an carboxylic acid alkyl ester.
- the secondary polyol or carboxylic acid alkyl ester can optionally be amidified or transesterified.

- biobased oils we mean vegetable oils or animal fats having at least one triglyceride backbone, wherein at least one fatty acid has at least one double bond.
- biobased oil derivatives we mean derivatives of biobased oils, such as hydroformylated soybean oil, hydrogenated epoxidized soybean oil, and the like wherein fatty acid derivatization occurs along the fatty acid backbone.
- biobased modified oils we mean biobased oils which have been modified by transesterification or amidification of the fatty acids at the triglyceride backbone.
- One broad method for producing an ester includes reacting a biobased oil, oil derivative, or modified oil with ozone and alcohol at a temperature between about -8O 0 C to about 8O 0 C to produce intermediate products; and refluxing the intermediate products or further reacting at lower than reflux temperature; wherein esters are produced from the intermediate products at double bond sites, and substantially all of the fatty acids are transesterified to esters at the glyceride sites.
- the esters can be optionally amidified, if desired.
- Another broad method for producing amides includes amidifying a biobased oil, or oil derivative so that substantially all of the fatty acids are amidified at the glyceride sites; reacting the amidified biobased oil, or oil derivative with ozone and alcohol at a temperature between about -80 0 C to about 8O 0 C to produce intermediate products; refluxing the intermediate products or further reacting at lower than reflux temperature, wherein esters are produced from the intermediate products at double bond sites to produce a hybrid ester/amide.
- Ozonolysis of olefins is typically performed at moderate to elevated temperatures whereby the initially formed molozonide rearranges to the ozonide which is then converted to a variety of products.
- the primary polyol can be used as a reactant in an ozonolysis process that uses at least one of its hydroxyl groups in forming ester linkages to fatty acid components in generating the secondary polyol, or as a reactant in an esterification process of an oxidation acid.
- One basic method involves the combined ozonolysis and transesterification of a biobased oil, oil derivative, or modified oil to produce esters. As shown in Figure 1, if a monoalcohol is used, the process produces an ester. As shown in Figure 2, if a polyol is used, an ester alcohol is made.
- the process typically includes the use of an ozonolysis catalyst.
- the ozonolysis catalyst is generally a Lewis acid or a Bronsted acid. Suitable catalysts include, but are not limited to, boron trifluoride, boron trichloride, boron tribromide, tin halides (such as tin chlorides), aluminum halides (such as aluminum chlorides), zeolites (solid acid), molecular sieves (solid acid), sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, boric acid, acetic acid, and hydrohalic acids (such as hydrochloric acid).
- the ozonolysis catalyst can be a resin-bound acid catalyst, such as SiliaBond propylsulfonic acid, or Amberlite ® IR- 120 (macroreticular or gellular resins or silica covalently bonded to sulfonic acid or carboxylic acid groups).
- a resin-bound acid catalyst such as SiliaBond propylsulfonic acid, or Amberlite ® IR- 120 (macroreticular or gellular resins or silica covalently bonded to sulfonic acid or carboxylic acid groups.
- the process generally takes place at a temperature in a range of about -8O 0 C to about 80 0 C, typically about 0 0 C to about 40 0 C, or about 10 0 C to about 20 0 C.
- the process can take place in the presence of a solvent, if desired.
- Suitable solvents include, but are not limited to, ester solvents, ketone solvents, chlorinated solvents, amide solvents, or combinations thereof.
- suitable solvents include, but are not limited to, ethyl acetate, acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, chloroform, methylene chloride, and N-methylpyrrolidinone.
- an ester alcohol is produced.
- Suitable polyols include, but are not limited to, glycerin, trimethylolpropane, pentaerythritol, or propylene glycol, alditols such as sorbitol, aldoses such as glucose, ketoses such as fructose, reduced ketoses, and disaccharides such as sucrose.
- Suitable oxidants include, but are not limited to, hydrogen peroxide, Oxone ® (potassium peroxymonosulfate), Caro's acid, or combinations thereof.
- a modified oil which has been transesterified to esters or amidified at the fatty acid glyceride sites before reacting with the ozone and alcohol, allows the production of hybrid C9 or azelate esters (the major component in the reaction mixture) in which the ester on one end of the azelate diester is different from the ester on the other end or production of hybrid amide esters in which an amide is positioned at one end of the azelate and an ester is on the other end.
- the alcohol used in ozonolysis is different from the alcohol used to transesterify the esters at the fatty acid glyceride sites.
- the esters produced by the process can optionally be amidified to form amides.
- One method of amidifying the esters to form amides is by reacting an amine alcohol with the esters to form the amides.
- the amidifying process can include heating the ester/amine alcohol mixture, distilling the ester/amine alcohol mixture, and/or refluxing the ester/amine alcohol mixture, in order too drive the reaction to completion.
- An amidifying catalyst can be used, although this is not necessary if the amine alcohol is ethanolamine, due to its relatively short reaction times, or if the reaction is allowed to proceed for suitable periods of time.
- Suitable catalysts include, but are not limited to, boron trifluoride, sodium methoxide, sodium iodide, sodium cyanide, or combinations thereof.
- Another broad method for producing amides includes amidifying a biobased oil, or oil derivative so that substantially all of the fatty acids are amidified at the triglyceride sites, as shown in Figure 7.
- the amidified biobased oil, or oil derivative is then reacted with ozone and alcohol to produce esters at the double bond sites.
- This process allows the production of hybrid ester/amides.
- the ester in the hybrid ester/amide can optionally be amidified. If a different amine alcohol is used for the initial amidification process from that used in the second amidification process, then C 9 or azelaic acid hybrid diamides (the major component in the reaction mixture) will be produced in which the amide functionality on one end of the molecule is different from the amide functionality on the other end.
- glycerin is a candidate primary polyol for ester polyol production since it is projected to be produced in high volume as a byproduct in the production of methyl soyate (biodiesel).
- candidate primary polyols include, but are not limited to, propylene glycol (a diol), trimethylolpropane (a triol) and pentaerythritol (a tetraol), alditols such as sorbitol and other aldoses and ketoses such as glucose and fructose, and disaccharides such as sucrose.
- ozono lysis of soybean oil is typically performed in the presence of a catalyst, such as catalytic quantities of boron trifluoride or sulfuric acid (e.g., 0.06-0.25 equivalents), and glycerin (e.g., 0.4-4 equivalents of glycerin) (compared to the number of reactive double bond plus triglyceride sites) at about -80 0 C to about 80 0 C (preferably about 0 0 C to about 40 0 C) in a solvent such as those disclosed herein.
- a catalyst such as catalytic quantities of boron trifluoride or sulfuric acid (e.g., 0.06-0.25 equivalents), and glycerin (e.g., 0.4-4 equivalents of glycerin) (compared to the number of reactive double bond plus triglyceride sites) at about -80 0 C to about 80 0 C (preferably about 0 0 C to about 40 0 C) in a solvent such as those disclosed herein.
- dehydrating agents such as molecular sieves and magnesium sulfate will stabilize the ester product by reducing product ester hydrolysis during the reflux stage based on chemical precedents.
- boron trifluoride or sulfuric acid as the catalyst is that it also functions as an effective transesterification catalyst so that the glycerin also undergoes transesterification reactions at the site of original fatty acid triglyceride backbone while partially or completely displacing the original glycerin from the fatty acid.
- this transesterification process occurs during the reflux stage following the lower temperature ozonolysis.
- Other Lewis and Bronsted acids can also function as transesterification catalysts (see the list elsewhere herein).
- Figure 3 also shows that monoglyceride groups become attached to each original olefinic carbon atom and the original fatty acid carboxylic groups are also transesterified primarily to monoglyceride groups to generate a mixture of primarily 1 -monoglycerides, 2-monoglycerides and diglycerides.
- unsaturated fatty acid groups multiply derivatized by glycerin, but the 16% saturated fatty acids are also converted primarily to monoglycerides by transesterification at their carboxylic acid sites.
- Glycerin (e.g., four equivalents) was used in order to produce primarily monoglycerides at the double bond sites and minimize formation of diglycerides and triglycerides by further reaction of pendant product alcohol groups with the ozonolysis intermediates.
- diglycerides will become more prevalent at lower primary polyol concentrations and diglycerides can still function as polyols since they have available hydroxyl groups.
- One typical structure for diglycerides is shown below as Formula I.
- 1 -Monoglycerides have a 1 :1 combination of primary and secondary hydroxyl groups for preparation of polyurethanes and polyesters.
- the combination of more reactive primary hydroxyl groups and less reactive secondary hydroxyl groups may lead to rapid initial cures and fast initial viscosity building followed by a slower final cure.
- starting polyols comprised substantially exclusively of primary hydroxyl groups such as trimethylolpropane or pentaerythritol, substantially all pendant hydroxyl groups will necessarily be primary in nature and have about equal initial reactivity.
- Glyceride alcohols obtained were clear and colorless and had low to moderately low viscosities.
- hydroxyl values range from about 90 to approximately 400 depending on the ratio of glycerin to soybean oil or pre- esterified glycerin starting material, acid values ranged from about 2 to about 12, and glycerin contents were reduced to ⁇ 1% with two water or potassium carbonate washes.
- ester solvents such as ethyl acetate
- ester alcohols in general, that involves the transesterification of the free hydroxyl groups in these products with the solvent ester to form ester-capped hydroxyl groups.
- ethyl acetate acetate esters are formed at the hydroxyl sites, resulting in capping of some hydroxyl groups so that they are no longer available for further reaction to produce foams and coatings. If the amount of ester capping is increased, the hydroxyl value will be decreased, thus providing a means to reduce and adjust hydroxyl values.
- Ester capping may also be desirable since during purification of polyol products by water washing, the water solubility of the product ester alcohol is correspondingly decreased leading to lower polyol product loss in the aqueous layer.
- Several methods are available to control ester capping reactions, and thus the hydroxyl value of the ester alcohol.
- Figure 6 illustrates an alternate approach to prepare vegetable oil glyceride alcohols, or ester alcohols in general, by reacting (transesterifying) the vegetable oil methyl ester mixture (shown in Figure 4), or any vegetable oil alkyl ester mixture, with glycerin, or any other polyol such as trimethylolpropane or pentaerythritol, to form the same product composition shown in Figure 3, or related ester alcohols if esters are not used as solvents in the transesterification step.
- the vegetable oil methyl ester mixture shown in Figure 4
- glycerin or any other polyol such as trimethylolpropane or pentaerythritol
- esters are used as solvents in transesterifying the mixture of Figure 4 (alkyl esters) with a polyol, a shorter reaction time would be expected compared to transesterification of the fatty acids at the triglyceride backbone (as shown in Figure 3), thus leading to decreased ester capping of the hydroxyl groups.
- This method has merit in its own right, but involves one extra step than the sequence shown in Figure 3.
- Another method of controlling the ester capping in general is to use solvents that are not esters (such as amides such as NMP (l-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone) and DMF (N 5 N- dimethyl formamide); ketones, or chlorinated solvents) and can not enter into transesterification reactions with the product or reactant hydroxyl groups.
- solvents that are not esters (such as amides such as NMP (l-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone) and DMF (N 5 N- dimethyl formamide); ketones, or chlorinated solvents) and can not enter into transesterification reactions with the product or reactant hydroxyl groups.
- “hindered esters” such as alkyl (methyl, ethyl, etc.) pivalates (alkyl 2,2- dimethylpropionates) and alkyl 2-methylpropionates (isobutyrates) can be used.
- This type of hindered ester should serve well as an alternate recyclable solvent for vegetable oils and glycerin, while its tendency to enter into transesterification reactions (as ethyl acetate does) should be significantly impeded due to steric hindrance.
- the use of isobutyrates and pivalates provides the good solubilization properties of esters without ester capping to provide maximum hydroxyl value as desired.
- Ester capping of polyol functionality can also be controlled by first transesterifying the triglyceride backbone, as shown in Figure 8 and described in Example 2, and then performing ozonolysis, as described in Example 3, resulting in a shorter reaction time when esters are used as solvents. Water or potassium carbonate washing of the product in ethyl acetate solutions has been used to remove the glycerin. Because of the high hydroxyl content of many of these products, water partitioning leads to extreme loss of ester polyol yield.
- the present invention allows the preparation of a unique mixture of components that are all end fiuictionalized with alcohol or polyol groups. Evidence indicates when these mixtures are reacted with polyisocyanates to form polyurethanes, that the resulting mixtures of polyurethanes components plastic ize each other so that a very low glass transition temperature for the mixed polyurethane has been measured. This glass transition is about 100 0 C lower than expected based solely on hydroxy 1 values of other biobased polyols, none of which have been transesterified or amidified at the glyceride backbone.
- polyols derived from these cleaved fatty acids have lower viscosities and higher molecular mobilities compared to these non-cleaved biobased polyols, leading to more efficient reactions with polyisocyanates and molecular incorporation into the polymer matrix.
- This effect is manifested in polyurethanes derived from the polyols of the present invention giving significantly lower extractables in comparison to other biobased polyols when extracted with a polar solvent such as N,N-dimethylacetamide.
- Ozonolysis of soybean oil was performed in the presence of catalytic quantities of boron trifluoride (e.g., 0.25 equivalent with respect to all reactive sites) at 20-40 0 C in methanol as the reactive solvent. It is anticipated that significantly lower concentrations of boron trifluoride or other Lewis or Bronsted acids could be used in this ozonolysis step (see the list of catalysts specified elsewhere). Completion of ozonolysis was indicated by an external potassium iodide/starch test solution. This reaction mixture was then typically refluxed typically one hour in the same reaction vessel.
- boron trifluoride e.g. 0.25 equivalent with respect to all reactive sites
- boron trifluoride also serves as an effective transesterification catalyst to generate a mixture of methyl esters at the original fatty acid ester sites at the triglyceride backbone while displacing glycerin from the triglyceride. It is anticipated that other Lewis and Bronsted acids can be used for this purpose. Thus, not only are all double bond carbon atoms of unsaturated fatty acid groups converted to methyl esters by methanol, but the 16% saturated fatty acids are also converted to methyl esters by transesterification at their carboxylic acid sites. Combined proton NMR and IR spectroscopy and GC analyses indicate that the primary processes and products starting with an idealized soybean oil molecule showing the relative proportions of individual fatty acids are mainly as indicated in Figure 4.
- Amidification of the methyl ester mixture was performed with the amine alcohols diethanolamine, diisopropanolamine, N-methylethanolamine, N-ethylethanolamine, and ethanolamine. These reactions typically used 1.2-1.5 equivalents of amine and were driven to near completion by ambient pressure distillation of the methanol solvent and the methanol released during amidification, or just heat under reflux, or at lower temperatures. These amidification reactions were catalyzed by boron trifluoride or sodium methoxide which were removed after this reaction was complete by treatment with the strong base resins Amberlyst A-26 ® or the strong acid resin Amberlite ® IR- 120, respectively.
- the boron trifluoride catalyst may be recycled by co-distillation during distillation of diethanolamine, due to strong complexation of boron trifluoride with amines.
- One problem that has been identified is the oxidation of monoalcohols such as methanol, that is used both as a solvent and reactant, by ozone to oxidized products (such as formic acid, which is further oxidized to formate esters, when methanol is used). Methods that have been evaluated to minimize this problem are listed below: (1). Perform ozonolysis at decreased temperatures, ranging from about -78°C (dry ice temperature) to about 20 0 C; (2).
- ozonolysis reaction with alcohols less prone to oxidation than methanol such as primary alcohols (ethanol, 1-propanol, 1-butanol, etc.), secondary alcohols (2-propanol, 2-hydroxybutane, etc.), or tertiary alcohols, such as tertiary-butanol; (3).
- alternate ozone non-reactive cosolvents esters, ketones, tertiary amides, ketones, chlorinated solvents
- the boron trifluoride catalyst may be recycled by co-distillation during distillation of diethanolamine, due to strong complexation of boron trifluoride with amines.
- This example shows a procedure for making glyceride alcohols or primarily soybean oil monoglycerides as shown in Figure 3 (also including products such as those in Figure 9 A, B, C).
- thermocouple, sparge tube, and condenser (with a gas inlet attached to a bubbler containing potassium iodide (1 wt %) in starch solution (1%) were attached to the round bottom flask.
- the round bottom flask was placed into a water-ice bath on a magnetic stir plate to maintain the internal temperature at 10-20 0 C, and ozone was bubbled through the sparge tube into the mixture for 2 hours until the reaction was indicated to be complete by appearance of a blue color in the iodine-starch solution.
- the sparge tube and ice-water bath were removed, and a heating mantle was used to reflux this mixture for 1 hour.
- This example shows the production of soybean oil transesterified with propylene glycol or glycerin as shown in Figure 8.
- Soybean oil was added to a flask containing propylene glycol (1 mole soybean oil/6 mole propylene glycol) and lithium carbonate (1.5 wt% of soybean oil), and the flask was heated at 185 0 C for 14 hrs. The product was rinsed with hot distilled water and dried.
- Proton NMR spectroscopy indicated the presence of 1 -propylene glycol monoester and no mono-, di- or triglycerides.
- a working ratio of 1 mole soybean oil/20 mole glycerin was used when the reaction was performed at 22O 0 C for 100 hrs to maximize the amount of monoglycerides that gave a composition containing 70% monoglycerides, 29% diglycerides and a trace of triglyceride (glyceryl soyate).
- This example shows production of a mixed ester alcohol, as in Fig. 9D.
- Soybean oil was initially transesterified with glycerin as specified in Example 2 to produce glyceryl soyate.
- 50.0 g glyceryl soyate was reacted with ozone in the presence of 130 g propylene glycol, boron trifluoride etherate (13.4 mL) in chloroform (500 mL).
- the ozono lysis was performed at ambient temperature until indicated to be complete by passing the effluent gases from the reaction into a 1% potassium iodide/starch ozone- indicating solution and refluxing the ozonolysis solution for one hour.
- the mixture was stirred with 60 g sodium carbonate for 20 hours and filtered.
- the resulting solution was initially evaporated on a rotary evaporator and a short path distillation apparatus (a Kugelrohr apparatus) was used to vacuum distill the excess propylene glycol at 8O 0 C and 0.25 Torr.
- the final product is a hybrid ester alcohol with pendent glycerin and propylene glycol hydroxyl groups with respect to the azelate moiety in the product mixture.
- This example shows the use of a resin-bound acid to catalyze soybean ozonolysis.
- 2O g of soybean oil that was pretransesterified with glycerin were reacted with ozone in the presence of 64 g of glycerin, 34 g of SiliaBond propylsulfonic acid (silica bound acid prepared by Silicycle, Inc.), and 300 mL of acetone.
- Ozone treatment was performed at 15-20 0 C, followed by a 1 hr reflux.
- the resin bound acid was filtered and product purified by vacuum distillation.
- the resulting product composition included about 83% monoglycerides with the balance being diglycerides.
- the yield was about 88% when the theoretical yield was based on exclusive formation of monoglycerides.
- This example shows a procedure for making amide alcohols (amide polyols such as those in Figure 10 A, B, C, D) starting with methanol-transesterified (modified) soybean oil (a commercial product called Soyclear ® or more generally termed methyl soyate).
- a problem in making the monoalcohol-derived ester intermediates during ozonolysis of soybean oil with mono-alcohols, such as methanol, in the presence of catalysts such as boron trifluoride is that oxidation of these intermediate acyclic acetals to hydrotrioxides to desired esters is very slow. This has been shown by determining the composition of soybean oil reaction products using various instrumental methods, including gas chromatography. This slow step is also observed when model aldehydes were subjected to ozonolysis conditions in the presence of mono-alcohols and boron trifluoride.
- the first step in preparing amide alcohols was to prepare the methyl esters of methanol transesterified soybean oil.
- a magnetic stirrer, methanol (500 mL; 12.34 mole), and 6.52 mL 99% sulfuric acid (0.122 moles) were added to the flask.
- a thermocouple, sparge tube, and condenser (with a gas inlet attached to a bubbler containing 1 wt % potassium iodide in 1 wt % starch solution) were attached to the round bottom flask.

- the flask was placed into a dry ice acetone bath on a magnetic stir plate to maintain temperature at -68 0 C. Ozone was added through a sparge tube into the mixture for 1 hour in which the solution had turned blue in color. The sparge tube and bath was then removed, and the solution allowed to warm to room temperature. Once at room temperature, a sample was taken showing that all double bonds had been consumed. At this point, 50 percent hydrogen peroxide (10 mL) was added to solution, a heating mantle was placed under the flask, and the mixture was refluxed for 2 hours. Sampling revealed the desired products.

- the solution was then dried with magnesium sulfate and filtered.
- the product was purified by short path distillation to obtain 146.3 g of clear and light yellow liquid. Initial distillation of the methanol or continued extraction of all aqueous layers with methylene chloride could have improved this yield.
- This example illustrates amidification fatty acid-cleaved methyl esters without the use of catalyst.
- the methyl esters of methanol transesterified soybean oil (20.Og; the product of ozonolysis of methyl soyate in methanol described in the first step of Example 5) were added to 25.64 g (2 equivalents) of ethanolamine and 5 mL methanol.

- the reaction time was somewhat less than 16 hrs.
- the reaction was shown to be complete by loss of the ester peak at 1730 cm "1 in its infrared spectra. Excess ethanolamine was removed by vacuum distillation.
- This example shows the amidification of fatty acids at the triglyceride backbone sites as shown in Figure 7.
- Backbone amidification of esters can be performed not only using Lewis acids and Bronsted acids, but also using bases such as sodium methoxide.
- the reaction can be performed catalyst free, but slower, with a wide range of amines. See Example 8.
- This example shows the use of fatty acids amidified at the triglyceride backbone (soy amides) to produce hybrid soy amide/ester materials such as those shown in Figure 1 1.
- Soy amides (fatty acids amidified at the triglyceride backbone as described in Example 9) can be converted to an array of amide/ester hybrids with respect in the azelate component.
- Soybean oil diethanolamide (200.0 g; from Example 9) was ozonized for 26 hours at 15-25°C in the presence of 500 g of propylene glycol using 1 liter of chloroform as solvent and 51.65 mL of boron trifluoride diethyl etherate. After ozone treatment, the solution was refluxed for 1.5 hours. The reaction mixture was neutralized by stirring the mixture for 3 hours with 166.5 g of sodium carbonate in 300 mL water.
- Example 1 1 This example shows the amidification of soybean oil derivatives to increase hydroxyl value.
- Amidification can be applied to oil derivatives, such as hydro formylated soybean oil and hydrogenated epoxidized soybean oil, to increase the hydroxyl value and reactivity.
- Hydrogenated epoxidized soybean oil (257.0 g) was amidified with 131 g of diethanolamine with 6.55 g of sodium methoxide and 280 mL methanol using the amidification and purification process described for the amidification of esters in Example 9.
- the product was purified by ethyl acetate/water partitioning. When diethanolamine was used, the yield was 91% and the product had a theoretical hydroxyl value of 498. This product has both primary hydroxyl groups (from the diethanolamide structure) and secondary hydroxyl groups along the fatty acid chain.
- This example shows the transesterification of soybean oil mono-alcohol esters (ethyl and methyl esters) with glycerin to form primarily soybean oil monoglycerides (illustrated in Figure 6).
- Polyurethane and polyester coatings can be made using the ester alcohols, ester polyols, amide alcohols, and amide polyols of the present invention and reacting them with polyisocyanates, polyacids, or polyesters.
- a number of coatings with various polyols using specific di- and triisocyanates, and mixtures thereof were prepared. These coatings have been tested with respect to flexibility (conical mandrel bend), chemical resistance (double MEK rubs), adhesion (cross-hatch adhesion), impact resistance (direct and indirect impact with 80 Ib weight), hardness (measured by the pencil hardness scale) and gloss (measured with a specular gloss meter set at 60°).
- the following structures are just the azealate component of select ester, amide, and ester/amide hybrid alcohols, with their corresponding hydroxyl functionality, that were prepared and tested.
- diphenylmethane 4,4 ' -diisocyanate (MDI, difunctional); Isonate 143L (MDI modified with a carbodiimide, trifunctional at ⁇ 9O 0 C and difunctional at > 90 0 C); Isobond 1088 (a polymeric MDI derivative); Bayhydur 302 (Bayh. 302, a trimer of hexamethylene 1,6-diisocyanate, trifunctional); and 2,4-toluenediisocyanate (TDI, difunctional).
- MDI diphenylmethane 4,4 ' -diisocyanate
- Isonate 143L (MDI modified with a carbodiimide, trifunctional at ⁇ 9O 0 C and difunctional at > 90 0 C)
- Isobond 1088 (a polymeric MDI derivative)
- Bayhydur 302 (Bayh. 302, a trimer of hexamethylene 1,6-diisocyanate, trifunctional
- Coatings were initially cured at 12O 0 C for 20 minutes using 0.5% dibutyltin dilaurate, but it became evident that curing at 163°C for 20 minutes gave higher performance coatings so curing at the higher temperature was adopted.
- a minimum pencil hardness needed for general- use coatings is HB and a hardness of 2H is sufficiently hard to be used in many applications where high hardness is required.
- High gloss is valued in coatings and 60° gloss readings of 90- 100° are considered to be "very good” and 60° gloss readings approaching 100° match those required for "Class A" finishes.
- Bayhydur 302 with no solvent and the viscosity was such that this mixture was applied well to surfaces with an ordinary siphon air gun without requiring any organic solvent. This coating cured well while passing all performance tests and had a 60° gloss of 97°.
- Such polyol/isocyanate formulations not containing any VOCs could be important because formulation of such mixtures for spray coatings without using organic solvents is of high value but difficult to achieve.
- Polyol batch 51056-51-19 had an appreciably lower hydroxyl value than those of polyol batches 51056-66-28 or 51056-6-26 due to a different work-up procedure.
- This polyol was reacted mainly with mixtures of Bayhydur 302 and MDI.
- Formulas 2-2606-7 (90:10 Bayhydur 302:MDI and indexed at 1.0) gave an inferior coating in terms of hardness compared to that of polyol 51056-66-28 when reacted with the same, but underindexed, isocyanate composition (formula 12-2105-4).
- One coating was obtained using non-capped soybean oil monoglycerides (51290- 11-32) that had a hydroxyl value of approximately 585. This coating was prepared by reaction with a 50:50 ratio of Bayhydur 302:MDI (formula 3-0106-1 ) using approximately 1.0 indexing and had a 2H pencil hardness and a 60° gloss of 99°. This coating was rated as one of the best overall coatings prepared.
- Coating formula 1-2306-5 was one of the best performing propylene glycol ester/isocyanate compositions that employed a 90:10 ratio of Isobond 1088:Bayhydur 302, with an isocyanate indexing of 1.39.
- the one test area requiring improvement was that its pencil hardness was only HB.
- This isocyanate composition is the same as the two high- performing glyceride coatings, formulas 2-2606-1 and 2-2606-3 but these had isocyanate indexing values of 1.0 and 0.90, respectively.
- Coating formula 1-2306-4 was another relatively high performing coating derived from propylene glycol that was also derived from Isobond 1088 and Bayhydur 302 (with an isocyanate indexing of 1.39) but its pencil hardness was also HB.
- Soybean Oil-Derived Coatings Containing Hydroxyethylamide Components Preparation and performance data of this class of polyurethane derivatives is shown in Table 3.
- a polyurethane composition was also prepared with polyol 51056-95-28 using a 2: 1 composition of 2,4-TDI:Bayhydur 302 and 10% of a highly branched polyester was added as a "hardening" agent.
- This coating passed all performance tests and had a pencil hardness of 5H and a 60° gloss of 1 15°.
- Polyurethane foams can be made using the ester alcohols, ester polyols, amide alcohols, and amide polyols of the present invention and reacting them with polyisocyanates.
- the preparation methods of the present invention allow a range of hydroxy 1 functionalities that will allow the products to fit various applications. For example, higher functionality gives more rigid foams (more crosslinking), and lower functionality gives more flexible foams (less crosslinking).
- biobased polyols can be prepared from the ozonolysis of vegetable oils (or animal fats) such as soybean oil in the presence of "primary polyols" such as glycerin, propylene glycol, monosaccarides, or monosaccharide derivatives such as sorbitol.
- primary polyols such as glycerin, propylene glycol, monosaccarides, or monosaccharide derivatives such as sorbitol.
- the ambient temperature stage of this process is generally followed by a reflux stage which completes the overall reaction.
- the mechanism of this process is believed to involve dissociation of the intermediate molozonide into aldehydes and carbonyl oxides that are captured by primary polyols to generate acetal and alkoxy hydroperoxide intermediates, respectively.
- the process produces a mixture of hydroxylated products that are derived from cleavage of the double bonds in vegetable oils (or animal fats) to produce intermediates (carbonyl oxides and aldehydes) that react with glycerin or other primary polyols to produce primarily monoglycerides and diglycerides at the carbon atoms of original double bonds.
- the primary polyol is glycerin
- the acetals and the alkoxy hydroperoxides are converted by ozone to ester glyceride polyols.
- primary polyols such as glycerin
- glycerin are employed in relatively high concentrations, only one of glycerin's hydroxy 1 groups is captured so that 1 -monoglycerides are primarily formed.
- these 1 -monoglycerides will react further with the specified reactive intermediates and be converted to diglyceride structures.
- Another process that occurs during the reflux stage is transesterifi cation of the triglyceride backbone at fatty acid sites by the primary polyol.
- acetate capping also occurs in a random fashion at alcohol sites due to transesterification.
- the products resulting from all these processes during the ozonolysis of soybean oil in ethyl acetate when glycerin is the primary polyol are shown in Fig. 2.
- a characteristic of this process is that appropriate organic solvents are required to co- solubilize the vegetable oil, vegetable oil derivative, primary polyol, or derivitized polyol so that these reactive intermediates can be effectively trapped by the primary polyol.
- fatty acids derived from biobased oils e.g., animal fats or vegetable oils
- fatty acids include derivatives of fatty acids including, but not limited to, fatty acid esters (including fatty acid ester alcohols), and fatty acid amides (including fatty acid amide alcohols).
- oxidation acids a mixture of diacids and monoacids (termed “oxidation acids”) are initially produced. These acids include the difunctional acids azelaic and malonic acid and the monofiinctional acids propionic, hexanoic, pelargonic (nonanoic), palmitic and stearic.
- Fig. 12 shows the individual difunctional and monofiinctional "oxidation acids” that will be formed from oxidative cleavage of specific unsaturated fatty acids found in typical animal fats and vegetable oils. It should be noted that animal fats and vegetable oils contain variable amounts of saturated fatty acids so there can be one or more saturated fatty acids in the mixture. The saturated fatty acids will not be subject to oxidative cleavage, as indicated in Fig.12.
- second polyols by this esterification approach is the ratio of the concentration of total hydroxy 1 groups to the concentration of total carboxyl groups.
- the term “secondary polyol” can also be taken to mean “product polyols” that incorporate primary polyols in their formation. Based on polymerization principles governing the esterification of polyols with mixtures of polyacids and monoacids, relatively high concentration ratios of total hydroxy 1 groups to total carboxyl groups will lead to secondary polyol mixtures in which the primary polyols are mainly mono-esterified, the molecular weights are relatively small, and the secondary polyols have relatively high hydroxy 1 values, as illustrated in Fig. 13.
- the monofunctional acids present in the oxidation acids derived from typical fatty acids serve as chain terminating acids which limit the molecular weight of secondary polyols prepared under concentration ratios favoring higher polyol molecular weights.
- the esterification of oxidation acids produced from a variety of fatty acid sources with primary polyols is extremely versatile and can produce a range of secondary polyols with a range of molecular weights and hydroxyl values.
- oxidative ozonolysis of unsaturated fatty acids involves their initial oxidative ozonolysis without solvent wherein the intermediate ozonized products (ozonides) are further oxidized to carboxylic acids with hot air, oxygen or mixtures thereof as described in U.S Patent No. 2,813,1 13 and U.S. Patent Publication No. 2007/0276165.
- oxidative ozonolysis of fatty acids can also be performed in solvents ("Ozonolysis of Unsaturated Fatty Acids, R.G. Ackman, M. E. Retson, L. R. Gallay, and F.A. Vandenheuvel, Canadian Journal of Chemistry, 1961, 39, 1956- 1963).
- Alternate methods to prepare oxidation acids from unsaturated acids involve oxidation with the following oxidants: permanganate salts, potassium permanganate in the presence of crown ethers, dichromate salts, mixtures of sodium periodate and ruthenium tetroxide, and mixtures of periodic acid and permanganate (Advanced Organic Chemistry, M.B. Smith and J. March, 5 th Edition, John Wiley & Sons, 2001, pages 1525-1526)
- Suitable candidate "primary polyols” include, but are not limited to, alditols, such as sorbitol (glucitol), and glycerin (propane- 1, 2,3 -triol); pentaerythritol [2,2- bis(hydroxymethyl)propane-l,3-diol]; trimethylolpropane [2-ethyl-2- (hydroxymethyl)propane-l,3-diol]; neopentyl glycol (2,2-dimethylpropane-l,3-diol); 2- methylpropane-l,3-diol; 1,4-butanediol; monoacetin; diacetin; propane- 1,2-diol; propane-1,3- diol; ethane- 1,2-diol; monosaccharides and disaccharides; and mixtures thereof.
- alditols such as sorbitol (glucitol),
- a range of Bronsted and Lewis acid catalysts can be employed for these esterifications including, but not limited to, sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, boron trifluoride, boron trichloride, sodium hypophosphite, calcium hypophosphite, stannous and stannic salts including their chlorides (and halides in general), oxides, carboxylates and organic modified tin species such as dibutyl tin oxide, dibutyl tin dilaurate, dibutyl tin diacetate and dialkyl tin dicarboxylate catalysts in general.
- a variation of the above approach is to esterify the oxidation acids derived from animal fats and vegetable oils with mono-ols such as methanol and then transesterify the oxidation acid alkyl esters with primary polyols under conditions of relatively high or relatively low primary polyol concentrations to obtain similar secondary polyols prepared when directly esterifying the oxidation acids with primary polyols using the same concentration variations.
- This approach is shown in Figs. 15A-B.
- a variation on the approach shown in Fig. 12 is to initially perform the direct ozonolysis of alkyl esters or specifically the methyl esters of fatty acids (biodiesels). This process takes advantage of the fact that methyl esters of fatty acids generally have lower melting points than the corresponding fatty acids and thus can more readily be maintained in the liquid state to facilitate material transfer before undergoing oxidative cleavage.
- Esterifi cation of the major azelate (C 9 ) ester/alcohol and difunctional and monofunctional oxidation acids with a mono-ol would give rise to the shown mixture of difunctional and monofunctional esters.
- ester polyols can be prepared from esterification of individual diacids with primary polyols such as glycerin.
- primary polyols such as glycerin.
- the short chain secondary polyols that would be derived from esterifying any one individual diacid under conditions of either relatively high primary polyol concentrations or relatively low primary polyol concentrations have not been used for polyurethane applications.
- the presence of monoacids in the oxidation acid mixture provides a way to control the molecular weights of secondary polyols to provide desired restrictions in secondary polyol viscosities.
- the current invention can provide one or more specific advantages or differences over the solvent-based ozonolysis of fatty acids in the presence of primary polyols described in WO 2007/027223, (Application Serial No.US 2006/016022) filed April 26, 2006, entitled Methods For Production Of Polyols From Oils And Their Use In The Production Of Polyesters And Polyurethanes.
- product diacids and monoacids can be fractionated by distillation.
- oxidative ozonolysis requires only one mole ozone per mole double bond versus 2 moles ozone per mole double bond in the solvent-based ozonolysis.
- solvent-free oxidative ozonolysis is currently performed in industry, and there is significantly less hazard in this process compared to passing mixtures of ozone and oxygen through flammable solvents.
- Another variation of this method involves the initial esterification of the oxidation acid mixture obtained from oxidative cleavage with mono-ols such as methanol to form their oxidation acid alkyl esters and then to amidify the mixture of difunctional and monofunctional alkyl esters with amine alcohols such as shown in Fig. 17 In this manner, the resulting polyol mixture will be comprised exclusively of highly reactive primary alcohol functionality.
- An alternate method to obtain the same mixture of difunctional and monofunctional alkyl esters is to start with the alkyl esters of fatty acids as shown in Figure 16.
- beta-hydroxyethylamide acids specifically beta-hydroxyethylamide acids
- the value of beta- hydroxyethylamide functionality is that they provide primary hydroxyl groups that are about 30 times more reactive in esterification reactions than normal primary hydroxyl groups.
- these hydroxyl groups in beta-hydroxyethylamide acids will accelerate the overall esterification rates of the representative reaction mixture with carboxylic acids during the overall esterification of hydroxyamide acids, diacids and mono acids with primary polyols such as glycerin as illustrated in Figure 18.
- This approach involves the initial amidification of vegetable oils (or animal fats) such as soybean oil with alkanolamines such as diethanolamine or N-alkyl ethanolamine followed by ozonolysis of this mixture of fatty acid amide alcohols to produce amide alcohols and the expected diacids and monoacids.
- vegetable oils or animal fats
- alkanolamines such as diethanolamine or N-alkyl ethanolamine
- ester polyols for testing in foams and coatings applications.
- One specific simulated oxidation acid mixture used to prepare ester polyols was the mixture predicted to result from the oxidative ozonolysis of soybean oil. As shown in Table 4, this specific composition was calculated by first determining the moles of individual fatty acids comprising normal soybean oil, calculating the number of moles of specific ozone acids that will be obtained from each individual fatty acid, and determining the total weight percent of individual ozone acids that would be obtained if oxidative ozonolysis had been performed on this composition soybean oil. Similar results were obtained using actual oxidation acid mixtures to obtain polyols which were used to prepare various foams and coatings.
- Simulated ozone acids (as described above) from normal fatty acid distribution soybean oil (223.73g; 2.4046 moles carboxylic acid) were mixed with glycerin (88.58g; 0.9619 moles glycerin; 2.8857 moles OH), sorbitol (87.61g; 0.4809 moles sorbitol; 2.8854 moles OH), triacetin (52.5Og; 0.2406 moles triacetin), and calcium hypophosphite (11.3Ig) in a round bottom flask.
- the hydroxyl to carboxylic acid ratio of this composition is 2.40.
- the mixture was initially heated to an internal temperature of 140 0 C using magnetic stirring for 1.5 hours while collecting the water generated during esterification in a Barrett tube. In order to drive the esterification to near completion, the mixture was then heated to 19O 0 C for 5 hours under atmospheric pressure after which the pressure was lowered over 3 hours to 45 Torr at 19O 0 C and held for 11 hours.
- the resulting oil was dissolved into 1 liter of acetonitrile, dried with magnesium sulfate, filtered through a coarse fritted filter containing celite, and the solvent was removed by applying 90 Torr pressure at 60 0 C for 2.5 hours. A final weight of 365.2Og of polyol was obtained, resulting in a yield of 89.3%.

- the hydroxyl to carboxylic acid ratio of this composition was 1.48.
- the mixture was heated to an internal temperature of 14O 0 C for 1 hour while collecting the water of esterification. In order to drive the esterification to near completion, the mixture was then heated to 18O 0 C for 5 hours at atmospheric pressure.
- Isobutyric anhydride (12.55g; 0.0793 moles; 0.1586 moles carboxylic acid) was mixed with glycerin (55.9Og; 0.6070 moles glycerin; 1.8210 moles OH) and calcium hypophosphite (6.56g) in a round bottom flask. The mixture was brought to an internal temperature of 140 0 C for 1 hour using mechanical stirring.
- Simulated ozone acids (as described above) from normal fatty acid distribution were used while leaving out malonic acid due to its potential decarboxylation (185.34g; 1.7004 moles carboxylic acid) and 2- methyl- 1,3 -propanediol (9.81g; 0.1088 moles propanediol; 0.2176 moles OH) were then added to the flask.
- the hydroxyl to carboxylic acid ratio of this composition was 1.10.
- the mixture was heated to an internal temperature of 14O 0 C for 1 hour while collecting the water of esterification. In order to drive the esterification to near completion, the mixture was then heated to 18O 0 C for 5 hours at atmospheric pressure.
- the pressure was lowered using aspirator vacuum at 180 0 C and held for 4 hours followed by aspirator vacuum at 19O 0 C for 1 hour and 195 0 C for 4 hours.
- the resulting oil was dissolved into 250 mL ethyl acetate and filtered through a 0.45 micron nylon membrane filter to remove catalyst. Solvent was then removed by applying a vacuum of 90 Torr at 6O 0 C to obtain a final weight of 194.98g of polyol while experiencing some loss during transfer and filtration.
- HV hydroxyl value
- AV acid value
- MP major gel permeation chromatography
- MP viscosity at 25°C of 2252 cP.
- Table 5 illustrates typical ester polyol hydroxyl and GPC molecular weights obtained for three ranges of hydroxy 1/acid ratios.
- Table 7 shows the performance data of a low hydroxyl value polyol of Example 18 used to prepare polyurethane flexible foams compared to a polyurethane flexible foam prepared from a commercial flexible foam polyol (Poly G 85-29). It can be seen that these two polyols have similar properties while the polyol of the present invention has lower resilience than the flexible foam obtained from the commercial flexible foam polyols which indicates this polyol has potential use in viscoelastic (memory) foam applications.
