Embodiment 1

[0020] Add the refined L-lactide to one of the pre-polymerization tanks. The volume of the pre-polymerization tank is 800L. Remove the original air in the tank and flush it with nitrogen repeatedly. After melting, start the agitator to add catalyst (the amount is 0.1% of the monomer), heat up to 160°C to start polymerization, open the discharge valve when the lactide conversion rate reaches 30%, and prepolymer and remaining lactide are mixed in a certain amount. The speed is put into a twin-screw reaction extruder rotating in the same direction. The diameter of the extruder screw is φ65mm, and the ratio of length to diameter is L / D=45. Wait. The lactide conversion rate of the twin-screw reaction extruder reaches about 90%. A melt pump is installed at the outlet of the extruder to control the extrusion rate. About 50-70kg / h of the material passes through the static mixer to make the pre-heated Polymer, lactide, catalyst, etc. are evenly mixed. The static mixer is equipped with...

[0022]Add the refined DL-lactide to one of the pre-polymerization tanks. The volume of the pre-polymerization tank is 800L. Remove the original air in the tank and flush it with nitrogen repeatedly. After melting, start the agitator to add the catalyst (the amount is 1% of the monomer), heat up to 180°C to start polymerization, and open the discharge valve when the lactide conversion rate reaches 10%, and the prepolymer and the remaining lactide are mixed in a certain amount. The speed is put into a twin-screw reaction extruder rotating in the same direction. The diameter of the extruder screw is φ65mm, and the ratio of length to diameter is L / D=45. Wait. Through the twin-screw reaction extruder until the conversion rate of lactide reaches about 80%, a melt pump is installed at the exit of the extruder to control the extrusion rate, and about 50-70kg / h of the material passes through the static mixer to make it The prepolymer, lactide, catalyst, etc. are evenly mixed.

Abstract

The invention provides a multi-grade continuous polyplant of polylactic acid materials, which is synthesized by the ring-opening polymerization of a lactide monomer. The multi-grade continuous polyplant consists of a polyplant device and a feed device with different characteristics, including a prepolymer reaction kettle set, a double-screw reaction squeezer, a fused mass feed pump, a static mixer and a tubular reactor. Compared with the plant for adopting a single double-screw reaction squeezer to synthesize the polylactic acid materials, the multi-grade continuous polyplant disperses and lightens the load of the reaction devices of each grade as a multi-grade plant is used for replacing a single-grade reaction plant, thus leading the control on the conversion rate of the lactide monomer to be easier and more stable; as the fused mass feed pump is connected in series in the middle, the floating speed of the materials and the pressure of the squeezer and a subsequence device can be stabilized, the reaction condition can be better controlled; as the back section of the plant is provided with the static mixer and the tubular reactor, the final conversion rate of the lactide monomer can be further improved, thus being beneficial to improving and adjusting the molecular weight and the molecular weight distribution of the polylactic acid materials.

Description

technical field [0001] The multi-stage continuous polymerization process and device described in the present invention are used for ring-opening polymerization of lactide monomers to synthesize biodegradable polylactic acid materials. The polymer polymerization method and equipment involve polymer chemistry and polymer physics. , using multi-level equipment segmented control, can achieve the effect of dispersing equipment load, facilitating operation, improving product conversion rate, adjusting molecular weight and stabilizing quality. Background technique [0002] The synthesis of polylactic acid materials is usually to synthesize lactide from lactic acid, and then ring-opening polymerization of lactide to generate polylactic acid, that is, a two-step method, which can synthesize products with higher molecular weight. In the two-step method, lactide is opened There are many methods of ring polymerization. The simplest polymerization method is batch polymerization in ampoul...
