Problems solved by technology

[0025] Trifluoroacetic acid is a good solvent for cellulose, and it dissolves quickly. Although it is expensive and corrosive, it is a potential solvent because of its low boiling point of 72-74°C, which is easy to recycle.
But this diacetate is insoluble in acetone, which greatly limits its large-scale application

Abstract

The present invention belongs to the field of organic polymer synthesis technology, and provides cellulose ester soluble in acetone and a direct synthesis process therefor. The synthesis process comprises the following steps: dissolving or partially dissolving a cellulose in a good solvent with a low boiling point with trifluoroacetic acid as the main ingredient, stirring and impregnating, and then adding an organic acid anhydride or an organic acid for an esterification reaction, recovering most of the good solvent having a low boiling point, subjecting the remaining solution to hydrolysis and precipitation to remove trifluoroacetic acid ester groups of the cellulose organic acid / trifluoroacetic acid mixed ester in the product, and precipitating to obtain the cellulose ester soluble in acetone. The cellulose ester made by the present invention has a degree of substitution of 2.2 to 2.6; furthermore, the cellulose ester has a high molecular weight, uniformly distributed ester groups, no sulphonic acid ester group in the macromolecules, and has a good physical mechanical strength and thermal stability. Cellulose esters of different degrees of substitution are prepared in the present invention by a direct synthesis process; this can save reaction time, reduce the amounts of the chemical reagents, and can also reduce the pollution to the environment caused by sulphates.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of organic polymer synthesis, and relates to a direct synthesis method, product and application of acetone-soluble cellulose ester. Background technique [0002] At present, partially substituted cellulose esters are prepared industrially, such as cellulose diacetate (the degree of substitution DS is between 2.2 and 2..6), dipropionate, dibutyrate and their mixed diacid esters, Without exception, the cellulose (raw material is high-purity pulp) and the corresponding acid anhydride (acylating agent), acid (a non-good solvent in the initial stage of the reaction, and a good solvent in the later stage) and a catalyst (usually sulfuric acid) are used. Esterification is carried out to obtain cellulose tricarboxylate (substitution degree DS=3), and then the triester is hydrolyzed with water (or acid / water mixture) in a homogeneous system to obtain the required diacid. For example, the cellulose acetate obtained i...
