[0005] In US5122572 and US5169914, it is proposed to use a tertiary alkyl compound as an initiator and a Lewis acid (boron trifluoride or titanium tetrachloride) as a co-initiator. Highly reactive polyisobutene can only be obtained after further removal of hydrogen chloride, the process is complicated, and the process of removing hydrogen chloride will inevitably produce by-products containing internal double bonds
CN101062962A discloses the use of alcohols or ether organic compounds as complexing agents and TiCl 4 A complex catalyst is formed to initiate the polymerization of isobutylene, wherein the selected alcohol complexing agent is selected from C 1 ~C 3 Alcohols, such as: methanol, ethanol, propanol; ether complexing agents only selected from C 3 ~C 4 Ethers, such as: methyl ethyl ether and diethyl ether, can directly prepare HRPIB, but for non-polar polymerization systems, usually the initiation activity is low and the molecular weight of the polymer is relatively high

Abstract

The invention relates to a preparation method for polyisobutylene with high reaction activity, and the method is especially suitable for carbocation polymerization of isobutylene, an alkane mixture of isobutylene or a mixed light C4 fraction containing isobutylene to prepare polyisobutylene with high reaction activity. According to the method, in the presence of an organic compound of alcohol, phenol and/or ether, isobutylene cationic polymerization can be co-initiated by TiCl4 to prepare the polyisobutylene with high reaction activity, and by adjusting the proportion of alcohol, phenol or ether and the counter-ion steric hindrance, the polyisobutylene with high reaction activity can be obtained directly. The method can improve the conversion rate, increase the content of the polyisobutylene chain end alpha-double bond to over 90%, and lower the molecular weight distribution, with the distribution index reaching 1.2, thereby improving the product quality.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preparation method of highly reactive polyisobutene, especially suitable for isobutene, alkane mixture of isobutene or mixed light C containing isobutene 4 The distillate was subjected to carbocationic polymerization to prepare highly reactive polyisobutene. Background technique [0002] Polyisobutene is a product obtained by carbocationic polymerization of isobutene (IB). In the cationic polymerization reaction, the carbocations at the end of the active chain are unstable, and a series of side reactions such as removal of β-H, transfer to monomers or other substances, and intramolecular isomerization are prone to occur. Therefore, the prepared polyisobutene terminal α- The double bond content is usually less than 10% (mol), known as ordinary polyisobutylene (referred to as PIB). Only by changing the nature of the counterion around the active chain-terminal carbocation, resulting in a chain-terminal -CH 3 The efficient and...
