Definitions

  • the present disclosure generally relates to compositions that include a blend of polymerization inhibitors and methods of using the same. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to compositions that include at least one compound having a stable nitroxide radical and at least one compound having a hydroxylamine, useful for inhibiting polymerization of ethylenic unsaturated monomers. The present disclosure further relates to methods of preparing compounds having a stable nitroxide radical, as well as methods of preparing compounds having a hydroxylamine.
  • the manufacture of ethylenically unsaturated monomers typically comprises three stages: reaction, recovery, and purification. Distillation operations at elevated temperatures are often involved in the recovery and the purification stages.
  • Ethylenically unsaturated monomers such as vinyl acetate, acrylate, and methacrylate monomers, can be present in processing streams or in refined products made by various chemical industrial processes.
  • these monomer types may undesirably polymerize through radical polymerization especially at elevated temperature and when polymerization initiators are present.
  • solid deposits of polymer can form on the surface of the process equipment during industrial manufacture, processing, handling, or storage. The resulting polymers can be problematic and lead to equipment "fouling" and product contamination.
  • the premature polymerization of these monomers is generally controlled by dosing polymerization inhibitors capable of reducing the premature polymerization of the monomers.
  • Conventional polymerization inhibitors include stable free radicals that can effectively scavenge carbon-centered radicals.
  • Conventional polymerization inhibitors such as 4- hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl (HTEMPO) and 4-oxo-2, 2,6,6- tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl (OTEMPO), generally degrade and lose their efficacy as polymerization inhibitors under acidic environments.
  • HTEMPO 4- hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl
  • OFTEMPO 4-oxo-2, 2,6,6- tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl
  • compositions for inhibiting the polymerization of monomers include a first inhibitor compound having a stable nitroxide radical and a second inhibitor compound having a hydroxylamine.
  • the compositions are useful for inhibiting the polymerization of ethylenically unsaturated monomers including vinyl acetate, acrylonitrile, acrylates, methacrylates, 1 ,3-butadiene, styrene, isoprene, (meth)acrylic acid, and combinations thereof.
  • compositions of the disclosure demonstrate synergy with respect to their ability to inhibit polymerization of a monomer.
  • the compositions of the disclosure demonstrate greater polymerization inhibition than the individual components present within the composition, controlling for the dosage of the active components.

  • the compositions of the disclosure also include one or more acids.
  • Methods of inhibiting the polymerization of a monomer are also disclosed herein.

  • the processes for preparing a polymerization inhibitor include the step of treating a compound of formula (Illa) with a compound of formula (II lb) within a solution to afford the polymerization inhibitor compound.
  • FIG. 1 shows gelation test results of acrylic acid treated with Formulation 2 or Formulation 4 at a dosage of 3.2 ppm to 3.3 ppm. The results are compared to gelation test results of acrylic acid treated with 4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl (HTEMPO) or 4-oxo-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl (OTEMPO).

  • Any of the presently disclosed polymerization inhibitor compositions are effective in scavenging free radicals that would otherwise cause the initiation and propagation of a polymerization reaction involving ethylenic unsaturated monomers.
  • Polymerization inhibitors and polymerization retarders can be considered generally as "antipolymerants" which are compounds that can inhibit or reduce the formation of polymers from one or more radically polymerizable compounds.

  • the second inhibitor compound having a hydroxylamine is:
  • the presently disclosed second inhibitor compound having a hydroxylamine has benefits over the corresponding nitroxide, such as the capability to provide additional polymerization inhibition, as will be more fully explained below.
  • a general synthetic route to produce a hydroxylamine of a nitroxide is to reduce its corresponding nitroxide with a reducing reagent as follows:
  • a hydroxylamine of a nitroxide has the potential to provide additional polymerization inhibition as compared to the corresponding nitroxide when carbon-centered and oxygen-centered radical initiators are present. This is explained as follows:
  • the hydroxylamine of a nitroxide is an excellent hydrogen donor due to its weak NO-H bond in the compound, and thus it is an efficient antioxidant.
  • the hydroxylamine of a nitroxide easily reacts with oxygen-centered radicals, such as peroxide radicals, while it's converted to its corresponding nitroxide.
  • Nitroxides are generally known as the most effective inhibitors because of their superior inhibiting capabilities through scavenging carbon-centered free radicals at a nearly diffusion controlled rate. This rate is several orders of magnitude faster than phenolic compounds. However, their kinetic superiority is not always advantageous. For instance, it may lose its superiority when oxygencentered radicals are present as the predominant free radicals.
  • nitroxide inhibitor dosages are often required for a given inhibition efficacy, thereby making their use economically unattractive or even infeasible.
  • each hydroxylamine of a nitroxide is equivalent to one hydrogen donor plus one nitroxide antipolymerant when oxygen-centered radicals and carbon-centered radicals are both present, which is an attractive incentive offered by the hydroxylamines of nitroxides. That is, one hydroxylamine of a nitroxide is able to eliminate one oxygen-centered radical and one carbon-centered radical whereas a nitroxide is only capable to eliminate a carbon-centered radical.
  • the composition unexpectedly demonstrates synergy, where the combination of the first and second inhibitor compounds produces a greater degree of polymerization inhibition than would be expected for the combination. This unexpected synergy is demonstrated in the Examples presented herein, as well as in FIGS. 1 and 2.
