This invention belongs to the field of
polymer synthesis and microchemical technology, and discloses a method for synthesizing hydroxyl-terminated
polybutadiene in a
continuous flow microchannel reactor. The preparation method includes mixing butadiene,
anhydrous ethanol, 30%
hydrogen peroxide, and an
antioxidant under
nitrogen protection to obtain a
raw material liquid, which is then pumped into the microchannel reactor via a high-pressure
metering pump. The mixture undergoes preheating
initiation and
polymerization reactions sequentially, with
viscosity monitored by an online
viscometer. After the reaction, the product is obtained through gas-liquid separation,
sedimentation and stratification, washing, vacuum
solvent removal, and
filtration. This invention utilizes a microchannel reactor, which provides precise
temperature control and stable pressure. Segmented
temperature control and online
viscosity adjustment prevent reactor blockage, resulting in high product conversion and yield, and uniform molecular
weight distribution. By adding auxiliary devices to optimize the process, continuous and stable production is achieved, making it more efficient,
environmentally friendly, and controllable.
