The invention relates to a production method of an
ultraviolet light absorber BP-3, which specifically comprises the following steps: S1,
condensation reaction: adding a
solvent and
resorcinol into areaction kettle, stirring, heating, adding benzyl trichloride, keeping the temperature, and carrying out
condensation reaction, S2,
hydrolysis layering and material transferring: adding deionized water into a
reaction product obtained in the step S1, carrying out
hydrolysis reaction, standing for layering, applying an upper
water layer, and transferring a lower-layer material into another reactionkettle with water as a
solvent, S3,
esterification reaction: adding
sodium carbonate and
dimethyl sulfate into the reaction kettle containing the lower-layer material in S2, and carrying out heat preservation reaction, and S4, finished product preparation: centrifugally filtering a product after
esterification reaction, packaging a filtered
sodium sulfate byproduct, evaporating filtrate to recover the
solvent, applying the solvent, and sequentially rectifying, refining, centrifuging and
drying the material from which the solvent is evaporated to obtain the finished product. According to the production process adopted by the invention, the production of the BP-3 becomes simpler, smoother and
safer, the production cost is reduced by 40% or above, considerable profits are brought to enterprises, and meanwhile, the production process is cleaner, more efficient and more environment-friendly.
