Problems solved by technology

What is even more unfavorable for actual production and use is that this method needs to end the reaction when the viscosity of the material increases to the point where stirring is difficult
For polymers with high Tg or high molecular weight, the viscosity increases rapidly during the polymerization process. When the monomer conversion rate is lower than 50%, the viscosity of the reaction material is already very high, and the stirring will be unable to continue due to the rod climbing effect.
Therefore, it is necessary to control the monomer conversion rate of the reaction, or add a solvent to the reaction system, which leads to a large amount of unreacted monomer and / or solvent remaining in the reaction product, and this method is not suitable for macro and continuous production

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing a vinyl polymer by bulk polymerization. According to the method, raw materials containing a vinyl monomer, a photoinitiator and a thermal initiator forma mixture or prepolymer as a first reaction material; the first reaction material is conveyed into screw extrusion equipment through the feeding hole of the screw extrusion equipment; a light-transmitting area is arranged near the feeding hole; a light source is started to irradiate the first reaction material in the screw extrusion equipment through the light-transmitting area so as to initiate the first reaction material to generate a photopolymerization reaction to obtain a second reaction material, the temperature of the second reaction material is increased by reaction heat, and the second reaction material is subjected to photopolymerization and thermal polymerization to obtain a third reaction material; and the third reaction material is subjected to devolatilization treatment to obtain the vinyl polymer. The process enables macroscopic and continuous production of vinyl polymers by photothermal bulk polymerization.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing vinyl polymers, in particular to a method for preparing vinyl polymers by bulk polymerization. Background technique [0002] The free radical polymerization reaction of vinyl monomer is fast, and a large amount of heat will be released during the reaction process. The heat of polymerization needs to be taken away by the boiling of the solvent. At the same time, the addition of solvent reduces the viscosity of the reaction system and makes the reaction more uniform. The use of a large amount of solvents will cause waste of resources and environmental pollution. When applying vinyl polymers to prepare plates, pipes, and adhesives, it is necessary to remove the solvent in the reaction product, which affects production efficiency. [0003] CN101724120B discloses a method for preparing a methacrylate polymer. The method adopts a series circulation tube reactor, a straight tube reactor and a venting extruder,...
