More specifically, in order to supplement the aliphatic dihydroxy compounds that may be consumed in the elevated temperature step of the ester reaction in the preparation of the biodegradable polyester copolymer resin, a small amount of aliphatic dihydroxy compound is added at the end of the ester reaction to make the unreacted product react.

셀룰로오스 계열의 고분자, 전분류와 함께 범용적으로 사용되는 생분해성 수지는 폴리락트산(PLA), 폴리부틸렌숙시네이트(PBS), 폴리에틸렌 숙시네이트(PES), 폴리카프로락톤(PCL) 등 지방족 폴리에스테르로부터 제조되는 수지이다.Biodegradable resins commonly used with cellulose-based polymers and starches are aliphatic polyesters such as polylactic acid (PLA), polybutylene succinate (PBS), polyethylene succinate (PES), and polycaprolactone (PCL). It is a resin produced from.
이들 지방족 폴리에스테르 수지는 생분해성은 우수하나 기계적 물성이 부족하다는 단점이 있다. 따라서 지방족 폴리에스테르 수지의 기계적 강도를 보완해 주기 위해 생분해성 수지의 제조 과정에 방향족 모노머를 포함시켜 합성시킴으로써 지방족-방향족 공중합체 형태의 생분해성 수지를 제조하는 방법이 개발되었다.These aliphatic polyester resins are excellent in biodegradability but have a disadvantage in that they lack mechanical properties. Therefore, a method of preparing a biodegradable resin in the form of an aliphatic-aromatic copolymer by synthesizing an aromatic monomer in the preparation of the biodegradable resin to complement the mechanical strength of the aliphatic polyester resin has been developed.
이와 같이 지방족-방향족 공중합체 형태의 생분해성 수지로 대표적인 것이 폴리(부틸렌 아디페이트-코-테레프탈레이트)(PBAT)이다. 상기 PBAT는 방향족 모노머로서 디메틸 테레프탈레이트와 지방족 모노머로서 1,4-부탄디올을 먼저 축중합 반응시켜 발생하는 메탄올을 제거한 뒤, 추가적으로 아디프산을 넣고 축중합 반응시켜 발생하는 물을 제거하는 방법으로 제조할 수 있다.Representative of such biodegradable resins in the form of aliphatic-aromatic copolymers is poly (butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT). The PBAT is prepared by removing the methanol generated by first condensation polymerization of dimethyl terephthalate as an aromatic monomer and 1,4-butanediol as an aliphatic monomer, followed by additionally adding adipic acid to remove water generated by condensation polymerization. can do.
이때 방향족 모노머로서 통상 사용되는 것이 디메틸 테레프탈레이트(dimethyl terephthalate, DMT)이다. 디메틸 테레프탈레이트는 180℃이하의 반응 온도에서도 반응이 가능하여 반응을 쉽게 유도할 수 있다는 장점을 갖는다. 그러나, 고가라는 점 때문에 제조공정의 비용적 부담이 크다는 문제점이 있다.In this case, dimethyl terephthalate (DMT) is commonly used as an aromatic monomer. Dimethyl terephthalate has the advantage that the reaction can be easily induced even at a reaction temperature of less than 180 ℃. However, there is a problem that the cost burden of the manufacturing process is large because of the high price.
이에 디메틸 테레프탈레이트보다 저렴한 방향족 모노머를 사용하여 공중합체를 제조하고자 하는 노력이 계속되어 왔다. 대표적인 예로서 방향족 디카르복실산인 테레프탈산(terephthalic acid, PTA)을 공중합체의 합성 반응에 이용하는 방법이 제시되었다. Accordingly, efforts have been made to prepare copolymers using aromatic monomers which are cheaper than dimethyl terephthalate. As a representative example, a method of using terephthalic acid (PTA), which is an aromatic dicarboxylic acid, in a synthesis reaction of a copolymer has been proposed.
그러나 상기와 같은 테레프탈산은 디메틸 테레프탈레이트와는 달리 용융점이 없고 고온에서 승화되는 성질이 있다. 또한, 테레프탈산은 생분해성 폴리에스테르 수지 제조과정에서 대표적인 지방족 모노머로 사용되는 1,4-부탄디올(1,4-butanediol, BDO)에는 상압하에서 225℃ 미만에서는 슬러리 상태로 존재하다가, 225℃ 이상의 온도에서 에스테르 반응이 일어나면서 투명한 용액상태로 변하게 되기 때문에, 테레프탈산과 1,4-부탄디올과의 균일한 반응을 유도하기 위해서는 225℃ 이상의 반응 온도가 요구된다. 그러나, 1,4-부탄디올의 경우 산성 조건하에서 190℃의 온도에 이르면 테트라하이드로퓨란(tetrahydrofuran, THF)으로 변환되어 버리기 때문에, 테레프탈산과 같은 고온의 반응 조건이 요구되는 방향족 모노머와의 공중합체 제조과정에서 테트라하이드로퓨란으로 변환되는 양을 감안하여 과량으로 1,4-부탄디올이 사용되어야 한다는 문제점이 있다. However, unlike the dimethyl terephthalate, such terephthalic acid has no melting point and has a property of sublimation at high temperature. In addition, terephthalic acid is present in 1,4-butanediol (BDO), which is used as a representative aliphatic monomer in the biodegradable polyester resin manufacturing process, in a slurry state below 225 ° C under normal pressure, and at a temperature of 225 ° C or higher. As the ester reaction occurs and becomes a transparent solution, a reaction temperature of 225 ° C. or higher is required to induce a uniform reaction between terephthalic acid and 1,4-butanediol. However, since 1,4-butanediol is converted into tetrahydrofuran (THF) when the temperature reaches 190 ° C under acidic conditions, copolymers with aromatic monomers requiring high temperature reaction conditions such as terephthalic acid are required. In consideration of the amount converted to tetrahydrofuran in the 1,4-butanediol must be used in excess.
본 발명에서는 이러한 지방족 디히드록시 화합물의 변환을 막기 위해 지방족 디히드록시 화합물을 비교적 저온에서 반응이 가능한 아디프산과 같은 지방족 디카르복실산 화합물과 먼저 반응시킨 후, 테레프탈산과 같은 방향족 디카르복실산 화합물을 반응시키고 있다.In the present invention, in order to prevent the conversion of the aliphatic dihydroxy compound, the aliphatic dihydroxy compound is first reacted with an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid compound such as adipic acid which can be reacted at a relatively low temperature, and then aromatic dicarboxylic acid such as terephthalic acid. The compound is reacting.
그러나, 여전히 상기 PBAT는 1,4-부타디올과 아디프산의 반응 후에 고온의 반응 조건이 요구되는 테레프탈산과 같은 방향족 모노머가 투입되어 에스테르화 반응이 진행될 수 있는 반응 온도까지 승온 단계에서 1,4-부탄디올의 THF로의 변환으로 인한 1,4-부탄디올의 부족으로 미반응된 테레프탈산이 다량 존재하는 문제점이 있다.However, the PBAT is still 1,4 at a temperature increase step up to a reaction temperature at which an aromatic monomer, such as terephthalic acid, which requires high temperature reaction conditions after the reaction of 1,4-butadiol and adipic acid is introduced, may proceed with the esterification reaction. There is a problem in that a large amount of unreacted terephthalic acid exists due to a lack of 1,4-butanediol due to conversion of butanediol to THF.
특히 승온단계에서 에스테르화 반응이 일어나는 온도까지 시간이 길어질수록 발생하는 THF의 양이 증가하게 되어, 1,4-부탄디올 양이 부족하게 되므로, 최종 축중합 단계에서 충분한 중합도를 얻을 수 없다.In particular, the longer the time up to the temperature at which the esterification reaction occurs in the temperature increase step, the amount of THF generated increases, and the amount of 1,4-butanediol is insufficient, so that sufficient degree of polymerization cannot be obtained in the final condensation polymerization step.
따라서 테레프탈산 에스테르화 단계에서 승온속도를 증가시키기 위한 설비가 필요하므로 비용이 발생하게 되고 반응기내 코일을 설치하게 되면 교반시 반응물의 유동을 방해하게 되어 반응성이 떨어질 수 있다.Therefore, since a facility for increasing the temperature increase rate is required in the terephthalic acid esterification step, the cost is generated, and if the coil is installed in the reactor, it may interfere with the flow of the reactant when stirring, thereby decreasing the reactivity.
이에 본 발명자들은 생분해성 폴리에스테르 공중합체 수지 제조과정에서, 에스테르 반응의 승온 단계에서 THF의 변환으로 부족되는 1,4-부탄디올을 보완하기 위하여 에스테르화 반응 말미에 소량의 1,4-부탄디올을 추가 투입하여 미반응된 테레프탈산을 모두 반응시켜 완전한 올리고머의 형성을 유도할 수 있음을 밝히고 본 발명을 완성하였다.Accordingly, the present inventors added a small amount of 1,4-butanediol at the end of the esterification reaction to compensate for the lack of 1,4-butanediol due to the conversion of THF in the step of raising the temperature of the ester reaction in the biodegradable polyester copolymer resin manufacturing process. The present invention was completed by revealing that unreacted terephthalic acid can be reacted to induce the formation of a complete oligomer.
본 발명이 해결하고자 하는 과제는 에스테르 반응시 미반응 방향족 모노머를 모두 반응시켜 완전한 올리고머의 형성을 유도함으로써 충분한 물성에 도달할 수 있는 생분해성 폴리에스테르 공중합체 수지의 제조방법을 제공하는 것이다.The problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a method for producing a biodegradable polyester copolymer resin that can achieve sufficient physical properties by reacting all unreacted aromatic monomers during the ester reaction to induce the formation of a complete oligomer.

보다 구체적으로, 본 발명은 지방족 디히드록시 화합물, 지방족 디카르복실산 화합물, 및 방향족 디카르복실산 화합물을 에스테르화 반응시켜 올리고머를 형성하는 단계를 포함하고, 여기서 상기 에스테르화 반응은 1차 에스테르화 반응과 1차 반응보다 고온에서 진행되는 2차 에스테르화 반응을 포함하고, 상기 지방족 디히드록시 화합물은 2차 에스테르화 반응 동안 추가 투입되는 것인 생분해성 폴리에스테르 공중합체 수지의 제조방법을 제공한다.More specifically, the present invention includes esterifying an aliphatic dihydroxy compound, an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid compound, and an aromatic dicarboxylic acid compound to form an oligomer, wherein the esterification reaction is a primary ester.

또한, 상기 지방족 디카르복실산 화합물로는 이 분야에 일반적으로 사용되는 것이 사용될 수 있으며, 비교적 저온 반응이 가능한 것이 보다 바람직하다. 구체적으로 상기 지방족 디카르복실산 화합물로는 하기 화학식 1로 표현되는 화합물, 그의 무수물 또는 유도체를 사용할 수 있다.In addition, as the aliphatic dicarboxylic acid compound, those generally used in the art may be used, and a relatively low temperature reaction is more preferable. Specifically, the aliphatic dicarboxylic acid compound may be a compound represented by the following formula (1), anhydrides or derivatives thereof.
[화학식 1][Formula 1]

상기 식에서 n은 2 내지 12이다. 바람직하게 상기 n은 2 내지 8의 것을 사용한다. Wherein n is from 2 to 12. Preferably n is used in 2 to 8.
이러한 지방족 디카르복실산 화합물의 구체적 예로는 숙신산(succinic acid, SA), 글루타르산(glutaric acid, GA) 또는 아디프산(adipic acid, AA) 또한 이들의 무수물 및 유도체가 가능하게 사용된다.Specific examples of such aliphatic dicarboxylic acid compounds include succinic acid (SA), glutaric acid (GA) or adipic acid (AA), as well as anhydrides and derivatives thereof.
본 발명에서는 상기 방향족 디카르복실산 화합물로서 프탈산(phthalic acid, PA), 무수 프탈산(phthalic anhydride), 아이소프탈산(isophthalic acid, IPA), 테레프탈산(terephthalic acid, TPA) 나프탈렌-2,6-디카르복실산(naphthalene-2,6-dicarboxylic acid), 이들의 무수물 또는 유도체를 사용하였지만 이에 한정되는 것은 아니며, 지방족 폴리에스테르의 단일 중합체로 이루어지는 생분해성 수지의 기계적 물성을 향상시키기 위한 목적으로 사용되는 방향족 모노머로서, 특히 고온에서 지방족 디히드록시 화합물과의 에스테르화 반응이 유도되는 방향족 디카르복실산 화합물이라면 유리하게 사용될 수 있다.In the present invention, phthalic acid (phthalic acid, PA), phthalic anhydride, isophthalic acid (IPA), terephthalic acid (TPA) naphthalene-2,6-dicar as the aromatic dicarboxylic acid compound. Aromatics used for the purpose of improving the mechanical properties of biodegradable resins consisting of homopolymers of aliphatic polyesters, including but not limited to acids (naphthalene-2,6-dicarboxylic acid), anhydrides or derivatives thereof. As the monomer, especially an aromatic dicarboxylic acid compound in which an esterification reaction with an aliphatic dihydroxy compound is induced at a high temperature can be advantageously used.
방향족 디카르복실산 화합물의 일 실시예로서 테레프탈산(terephthalicacid, PTA)은 통상 방향족 모노머로 사용되는 디메틸 테레프탈레이트(dimethyl terephthalate, DMT)에 비해 저가라는 장점이 있는 반면, 185℃ 이하의 온도에서도 반응이 가능한 디메틸 테레프탈레이트와 달리, 225℃ 이상의 온도에서 비로소 지방족 디히드록시 화합물과의 균일한 에스테르화 반응을 유도할 수 있다.As an example of an aromatic dicarboxylic acid compound, terephthalic acid (PTA) has the advantage of being inexpensive compared to dimethyl terephthalate (DMT), which is usually used as an aromatic monomer, while the reaction is performed at a temperature below 185 ° C. Unlike possible dimethyl terephthalates, it is only possible to induce uniform esterification reactions with aliphatic dihydroxy compounds at temperatures above 225 ° C.
그러나 본 발명에서 지방족 디히드록시 화합물의 일 실시예로 사용하는 1,4-부탄디올(1,4-butanediol, BDO)의 경우에는 190℃ 이상의 온도에서 테트라하이드로퓨란(tetrahydrofuran, THF)으로 변환되기 때문에, 2차 반응을 위한 승온 단계에서 변환된다.However, in the case of 1,4-butanediol (BDO) used as an example of an aliphatic dihydroxy compound in the present invention, since it is converted to tetrahydrofuran (THF) at a temperature of 190 ° C. or higher. In the temperature rising step for the secondary reaction.
본 발명에서는 이러한 지방족 디히드록시 화합물의 변환을 보완하기 위하여, 2차 에스테르화 반응 말미에 지방족 디히드록시 화합물을 추가 투입하여 완전한 올리고머의 형성을 유도한다.In the present invention, to supplement the conversion of the aliphatic dihydroxy compound, an aliphatic dihydroxy compound is added at the end of the secondary esterification reaction to induce the formation of a complete oligomer.
한편, 지방족 디히드록시 화합물과 지방족 디카르복실산 화합물을 먼저 반응시키는 것은 모노머 상태로 존재하는 지방족 디히드록시 화합물의 양을 최소화 할 수 있으므로, 이후 방향족 디카르복실산과의 고온 반응에서 지방족 디히드록시 화합물이 변환되는 양을 감소시킬 수 있다.On the other hand, reacting the aliphatic dihydroxy compound and the aliphatic dicarboxylic acid compound first can minimize the amount of the aliphatic dihydroxy compound present in the monomer state, and thus, the aliphatic dihydride in the high temperature reaction with the aromatic dicarboxylic acid. It is possible to reduce the amount of conversion of the oxy compound.
상기 지방족 디카르복실산 화합물에 포함된 2개의 카르복실산은 지방족 디히드록시 화합물에 포함된 히드록시기와 에스테르화 반응을 한다. 이때 지방족 디카르복실산 화합물은 지방족 디히드록시 화합물에 대해 당량을 조절함으로써, 1 지방족 디카르복실산 화합물에 대해 1 지방족 디히드록시 화합물이 결합하여 고정될 수 있으며, 또한 2 지방족 디히드록시 화합물이 결합하여 고정될 수 있다.The two carboxylic acids included in the aliphatic dicarboxylic acid compound undergo esterification with the hydroxyl group included in the aliphatic dihydroxy compound. At this time, the aliphatic dicarboxylic acid compound may be fixed by combining an aliphatic dihydroxy compound with respect to the aliphatic dihydroxy compound, by adjusting the equivalent amount with respect to the aliphatic dihydroxy compound, and also the aliphatic dihydroxy compound. This can be fixed in combination.
구체적으로, 본 발명에서 지방족 디히드록시 화합물의 일 실시예로 사용되는 1,4-부탄디올은 아디프산과 반응하여 AA-BDO 형태의 올리고머 또는 BDO-AA-BDO 형태의 올리고머를 형성한다.Specifically, 1,4-butanediol used as an example of an aliphatic dihydroxy compound in the present invention reacts with adipic acid to form an oligomer of AA-BDO form or an oligomer of BDO-AA-BDO form.
상기 지방족 디히드록시 화합물과 지방족 디카르복실산 화합물과의 반응이 우세한 1차 에스테르화 반응은 그 에스테르화 반응으로부터 유출되는 물이 이론적으로 계산되는 유출량에 도달되어 더 이상 유출수가 발생하지 않는 시점(즉, 지방족 디카르복실산 화합물에 포함된 카르복실산의 총 몰수에 해당되는 물의 양)에서 종료시킨다.The primary esterification reaction in which the reaction between the aliphatic dihydroxy compound and the aliphatic dicarboxylic acid compound is predominant is performed when the water flowing out of the esterification reaction reaches the effluent theoretically calculated and no more effluent occurs ( That is, the amount of water corresponding to the total number of moles of carboxylic acid contained in the aliphatic dicarboxylic acid compound) is terminated.
상기 1차 에스테르화 반응은 160 내지 185℃의 온도 범위에서 진행되는 것이 바람직하며, 1차 에스테르화 반응보다 고온인 2차 에스테르화 반응은 225 내지 250℃의 온도 범위에서 진행시킨다. 구체적으로, 방향족 디카르복실산 화합물로서 테레프탈산(PTA)을 사용할 경우에는 225℃ 이상의 온도에서 에스테르화 반응이 균일하게 진행되므로 2차 반응의 온도는 225~250℃ 범위로 하는 것이 바람직하다.The primary esterification reaction is preferably carried out at a temperature range of 160 to 185 ℃, the secondary esterification reaction is higher than the primary esterification reaction proceeds at a temperature range of 225 to 250 ℃. Specifically, when terephthalic acid (PTA) is used as the aromatic dicarboxylic acid compound, since the esterification reaction proceeds uniformly at a temperature of 225 ° C or higher, the temperature of the secondary reaction is preferably in the range of 225 to 250 ° C.
상기 설명된 바와 같이, 1,4-부탄디올과 같은 지방족 디히드록시 화합물의 경우에는 190℃ 이상의 온도에서 테트라하이드로퓨란(tetrahydrofuran, THF)으로 변환되기 때문에, 2차 반응이 진행되면서 방향족 디카르복실산과 올리고머를 형성해야 할 1,4-부탄디올이 변환되기 때문에, 방향족 디카르복실산이 미반응되어 남아 있을 수 있으며, 이 미반응된 방향족 디카르복실산을 반응시키기 위해, 2차 반응의 말미에서 1,4-부탄디올과 같은 지방족 디히드록시 화합물을 소량 추가 투입하여 완전한 올리고머 형성을 유도한다.As described above, aliphatic dihydroxy compounds such as 1,4-butanediol are converted to tetrahydrofuran (THF) at a temperature of 190 ° C. or higher, so that the secondary reaction proceeds with aromatic dicarboxylic acid. Since the 1,4-butanediol which should form the oligomer is converted, the aromatic dicarboxylic acid may remain unreacted, and in order to react this unreacted aromatic dicarboxylic acid, at the end of the secondary reaction, A small amount of aliphatic dihydroxy compound such as 4-butanediol is added to induce complete oligomer formation.
이 경우, 추가 투입되는 지방족 디히드록시 화합물의 양은 지방족 디히드록시 화합물의 전환율을 고려하여 선택될 수 있으며, 바람직하게는 지방족 및 방향족 디카르복실산 총량 기준 1몰 대비 0.05몰 내지 0.5몰의 범위 내에서 추가 투입되는 것이다. 여기서, 0.05몰보다 적을 경우 추가 투입효과가 나타나지 않으며, 0.5몰보다 많을 경우 1,4-부탄디올의 사용량을 최소화 하고자 하는 본 발명의 취지에 벗어난다.In this case, the amount of the aliphatic dihydroxy compound to be added may be selected in consideration of the conversion rate of the aliphatic dihydroxy compound, preferably in the range of 0.05 mol to 0.5 mol relative to 1 mol based on the total amount of aliphatic and aromatic dicarboxylic acid Will be added within. Here, if less than 0.05 mole does not appear an additional input effect, when more than 0.5 mole deviates from the purpose of the present invention to minimize the amount of 1,4-butanediol used.
또한, 추가 투입되는 시기는 2차 반응후 응축기 유출액이 더 이상 나오지 않는 시점에 투입되는 것이 바람직하다.In addition, the addition time is preferably added at a time when the condenser effluent no longer comes out after the second reaction.
상기 지방족 디히드록시 화합물의 사용량은 목적으로 하는 에스테르화 반응에서 요구되는 범위 내에서 사용될 수 있으며, 지방산 및 방향족 디카르복실산 화합물의 1몰에 대하여 1.0몰 이상으로 투입될 수 있으며, 바람직하게는 1.3몰 이상으로 투입되는 것이다. 지방족 디카르복실산 화합물과 방향족 디카르복실산 화합물은 0.4 ~ 0.9 : 0.1 ~ 0.6의 몰비로 사용되는 것이 생분해성이라는 측면에서 바람직하며, 보다 바람직하게는 0.52 : 0.48의 몰비로 사용되는 것이다. 생분해성이 요구되지 않는 경우, 지방족 디카르복실산과 화합물과 방향족 디카르복실산 화합물은 보다 다양한 몰비로 반응될 수 있다.The amount of the aliphatic dihydroxy compound may be used within the range required in the intended esterification reaction, and may be added in an amount of 1.0 mole or more with respect to 1 mole of the fatty acid and the aromatic dicarboxylic acid compound, preferably 1.3 moles or more will be added. The aliphatic dicarboxylic acid compound and the aromatic dicarboxylic acid compound are preferably used in a molar ratio of 0.4 to 0.9: 0.1 to 0.6 in terms of biodegradability, and more preferably used in a molar ratio of 0.52: 0.48. If biodegradability is not required, the aliphatic dicarboxylic acid and the compound and the aromatic dicarboxylic acid compound can be reacted in more various molar ratios.

비교예 2Comparative Example 2
1,4-부탄디올을 추가 투입하지 않는 대신 처음부터 45mol을 첨가하는 것만 제외하고, 실시예 1과 동일하게 반응시켜 생분해성 수지를 얻었다.A biodegradable resin was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1, except that 45 mol was added at the beginning instead of adding 1,4-butanediol.
시험예 1Test Example 1
상기 실시예 1 및 비교예 1 내지 2에서 얻은 생분해성 수지에 대한 다음과 같은 물성을 평가하여 그 결과를 하기 표 1에 나타내었다.The following physical properties of the biodegradable resins obtained in Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2 were evaluated, and the results are shown in Table 1 below.
THF전환율 : 에스테르 반응시 발생하는 THF 함량은 가스 크로마토그래피를 이용하여 측정하였다 THF conversion rate : The THF content generated during ester reaction was measured by gas chromatography.
중량평균분자량 : 수지에 대하여 0.1중량%의 클로로포름 용액을 제조한 후, GPC(Gel Permeation Chromatography)(Agilent, HP 1100)를 이용하여 35℃에서 1ml/min의 유속으로 측정하였다. Weight average molecular weight : After preparing 0.1% by weight of chloroform solution to the resin, using a GPC (Gel Permeation Chromatography) (Agilent, HP 1100) was measured at a flow rate of 1ml / min at 35 ℃.
상기 표 1를 통해 확인될 수 있는 바와 같이, 본 발명에 따른 생분해성 폴리에스테르 공중합체 수지는 분자량이 비교예에 비하여 높은 14만 내지 17만 사이인 것으로 미루어, 올리고머의 형성이 완전하게 이루어졌음을 확인할 수 있다.As can be confirmed through Table 1, the biodegradable polyester copolymer resin according to the present invention has a molecular weight of 140,000 to 170,000 higher than the comparative example, the formation of the oligomer was made completely You can check it.
상기 표에서 THF가 가장 많이 발생하는 단계는 200℃에서 230℃까지의 승온단계임을 알 수 있다. 상기 승온단계에서는 에스테르 반응속도보다는 THF 변환 속도가 우세한 반면, 2차 에스테르화 반응단계에서는 THF가 발생하지만 에스테르화 반응이 더 우세하기 때문에 본 발명에서와 같이 승온단계에서 유실된 BOD를 보충하기 위하여 2차 에스테르화 반응 말미에 BOD를 추가 투입함으로써 최종 에스테르 반응을 완성시킬 수 있다.It can be seen that the step of generating the most THF in the table is a temperature raising step from 200 ° C to 230 ° C. THF conversion rate is superior to the ester reaction rate in the temperature increase step, while THF occurs in the second esterification step, but esterification is superior, so as to compensate for the BOD lost in the temperature increase step as in the present invention. The final ester reaction can be completed by adding BOD at the end of the primary esterification reaction.
