Embodiment 1,2
[0040] The chamber-scale reactor used in the examples was figure 1 In the example description. The reactor is about 5 cm wide and about 5 cm high. A transfer line is attached to the top of the reactor.
[0041] The bottom part of the reactor is filled with liquid D-type lactic acid, and a zinc oxide catalyst is injected into the liquid lactic acid. The reactor was equipped with a three-way valve at the bottom to supply liquid lactic acid to the reactor. Nitrogen carrier gas was also supplied to the reactor through a line connected to a tee. The entire assembly was placed in a heating mantle and heated to maintain the desired reactor temperature. Lactide and other by-products produced by the catalyst reaction in the reactor are evaporated.
[0042] The catalyst added to the liquid lactic acid was zinc oxide (ZnO), which was added in amounts of 0.5% by weight (Example 1) and 1.0% by weight (Example 2), based on the liquid lactic acid. Subsequently, the unreacted lactic aci...
Embodiment 3
[0050] 3000 g of D-type lactide produced in Example 1 was introduced into a reactor equipped with a stirrer, and heated to 300° C. under a nitrogen atmosphere. 0.9 g of stannous octoate and 1.8 g of 1-hexanol were introduced thereinto. Subsequently, the reaction was performed at a temperature of 180° C. for 2 hours, and the polymer was recovered from the reactor. The crushing process was carried out to obtain D-type polylactic acid with a weight average molecular weight of about 150,000 g / mol.
[0051] Invention effect
[0052] The method of the present invention has the advantage that compared with the conventional production method, D-lactide can be obtained through a simple method with high yield. Therefore, the production cost of finally obtaining D-type polylactic acid from D-type lactide can be reduced.
[0053] The method of the present invention also has the advantage that the asymmetric carbon atoms in the product lactide are mainly in the same absolute configura...
