Problems solved by technology

[0064] (3) Catalysts having both, i.e., catalytic activity for both metathesis and hydrogenation cannot be used in a controlled manner
[0066] However, to date no literature reports the preparation of HNBR with controlled molecular weight and thus Mooney viscosity using only a catalyst based on ruthenium or osmium, which is otherwise known for its metathesis activity
Also, to date there is no hydrogenation catalyst that can be used in NBR hydrogenation to high conversion at very low concentrations

preparation example Construction

[0410] The preparation of the novel catalyst compositions can be carried out in the presence or absence of a suitable solvent which does not deactivate the catalyst used and which does not adversely affect the hydrogenation in any other way. Preferably, an organic solvent is used to dissolve the complex catalyst. More preferred solvents include, but are not limited to, dichloromethane, benzene, toluene, methyl ethyl ketone, acetone, tetrahydrofuran, tetrahydropyran, dioxane, cyclohexane, and chlorobenzene. Particularly preferred solvents are chlorobenzene and methyl ethyl ketone. Typically, a vinyl compound is added to the solution of the complex catalyst.

[0411] Formation of the novel catalyst composition takes place prior to introducing hydrogen into the reaction system.

[0412] Step b) of the method according to the invention:

[0413] Thereafter, the hydrogenation of the nitrile rubber is carried out by contacting the nitrile rubber with hydrogen and the catalyst c...

[0511] Example 1: (comparative example, using catalyst (4))

[0512] 18g 3431VP at 282g MCB ( The solution in 3431VP at a concentration of 6 wt%) was bubbled with nitrogen for 30 minutes in a 600 mL Parr autoclave and then heated to 120°C. Will Wilkinson catalyst (15mg) and PPh 3 (18 mg) was dissolved into another 22 g of degassed MCB and then added to the reactor. The hydrogenation was carried out at a hydrogen pressure of 4.137 MPa and a stirring speed of 800 rpm. Samples were taken from the reactor at intervals for FT-IR analysis to determine the degree of hydrogenation. After 5 hours of hydrogenation, the degree of hydrogenation reached 90.3%, the reactor was cooled to room temperature and the pressure was released. Final molecular weight and PDI are: Mn = 76,286, Mw = 260,572, PDI = 3.42.

Abstract

This invention relates to novel catalyst compositions based on Ruthenium- or Osmium-based complex catalysts and specific co-catalysts and to a process for selectively hydrogenating nitrile rubbers in the presence of such catalyst compositions.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to novel catalyst compositions obtainable from reacting complex catalysts based on ruthenium or osmium with specific cocatalysts and to a process for the selective hydrogenation of nitrile rubber in the presence of such novel catalyst compositions method. Background technique [0002] The term "acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber" or "nitrile rubber", also referred to as "NBR" for brevity, is to be interpreted broadly and refers to at least one α,β-unsaturated nitrile, at least one Rubbers of copolymers or terpolymers of a conjugated diene and, if desired, one or more additional copolymerizable monomers. [0003] Hydrogenated NBR, also referred to simply as "HNBR", is commercially produced by hydrogenating NBR. Therefore, the selective hydrogenation of carbon-carbon double bonds in diene-based polymers must be carried out without affecting the nitrile groups and other functional groups (such as carboxyl groups) in these polym...
