The invention discloses a novel synthetic process of bromized
polyphenyl ether. The novel synthetic process comprises the following steps of (1)
polymerization: putting
solid tribromophenol and
solid sodium methylate with the
molar ratio of 1 to (0.5 to 2) into
methanol, adding a catalyst, rising the temperature to 65 DEG C, carrying out
backflow reaction for 4 hours, cooling for suction
filtration, leaching with the
methanol, and
drying to obtain a POBP crude product; (2) recrystallization: weighing the POBP crude product prepared in the step (1), dissolving into
tetrahydrofuran with the weight three times of that of the POBP crude product, stirring at normal temperature till the POBP crude product is completely dissolved, starting
electromagnetic stirring, quickly dripping into the
methanol with the weight equal to that of the
tetrahydrofuran, then continuously stirring for 1 hour, carrying out suction
filtration and
drying for spare use; (3) bromization: taking and dissolving POBP in
dichloroethane with the weight three times of that of the POBP, dripping excessive
bromine at the temperature of 20-30 DEG C, rising the temperature to 75 DEG C, reacting for 4 hours, cooling to 30 DEG C, adjusting PH, carrying out suction
filtration, leaching, secondary suction filtration and
drying to obtain the product. The novel synthetic process disclosed by the invention has the advantages that after bromized
polyphenyl ether is used, the
flame retardance and the
mechanical property of a resin product can be obviously enhanced, and all detection indexes of the resin product are obviously more excellent, so that the bromized
polyphenyl ether can be used as a great substitute product of
decabromodiphenyl ether.
