Abstract

The present invention relates to a polyformaldehyde dimethyl ether synthesis method, wherein problems of more by-product methylal generation and poor product selectivity during a polyformaldehyde dimethyl ether synthesis process adopting methanol and trioxymethylene as raw materials in the prior art are mainly solved with the present invention. The technical scheme comprises that methylal and trioxymethylene are adopted as raw materials, and the raw materials and a solid super acid catalyst are subjected to a contact reaction at a reaction temperature of 70-200 DEG C under a reaction pressure of 0.5-6 MPa to produce the polyformaldehyde dimethyl ether (CH3O(CH2O)nCH3), wherein the amount of the catalyst is 0.1-5.0% of the weight of the raw materials, and the catalyst comprises, by weight, a) 30-80 parts of a molecular sieve carrier, and b) 20-70 parts of a solid super acid. With the technical scheme, the problems in the prior art are well solved, and the method can be used for industrial production of polyformaldehyde dimethyl ether.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for synthesizing polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the deepening influence of the industrial revolution, my country's oil resources have become increasingly tense, and the pressure on oil supply has increased unprecedentedly. It is estimated that in the next 10-20 years, my country's oil supply rate will only be ~50%. Therefore, how to use our country's rich coal resources to solve our country's energy crisis has become an urgent problem for scientific researchers. Therefore, the development of new oil substitutes from coal-based methanol has attracted increasing attention. [0003] DME was first proposed as a diesel additive. However, due to its poor cold start performance, high vapor pressure at room temperature, and easy air resistance, the cost of DME as an alternative fuel for vehicles has increased significantly. Polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether, or Polyoxymeth...
