Abstract

The invention discloses a process method for preparing glycolide from glycolate, and belongs to the technical field of chemical products. The method comprises the following steps: carrying out primaryreaction on reaction raw materials glycollate and a catalyst in a pre-polymerization kettle; transferring the obtained mixture into a final polymerization kettle connected with a pre-polymerization kettle; oligomers formed by the reaction in the final polymerization kettle flow into a depolymerization kettle to be subjected to a depolymerization reaction; enabling a part of the crude product glycolide obtained in the depolymerization kettle directly to directly flow into a crude product storage tank; and feeding the rest of depolymerized materials into the wiped film evaporator by a circulating pump; separating out a crude product glycolide and other materials in the wiped film evaporator, collecting the crude product glycolide in a crude product storage tank, enabling the other materialsto flow into the depolymerization kettle again for further depolymerization reaction; and purifying the crude product glycolide collected in the crude product storage tank through a melting crystallizer to obtain a pure product glycolide. The polymerization process designed by the invention is divided into two steps, so that the production energy consumption is effectively reduced; meanwhile,, bymeans of the thin-film evaporator, side reactions such as further polymerization and coking caused by the fact that the oligomer stays in the depolymerization kettle for a long time are avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical production of glycolide, which belongs to the technical field of chemical products, in particular to a process for preparing glycolide from glycolate. Background technique [0002] Polyglycolide is a synthetic polymer material with good biodegradability and biocompatibility. Its application is mainly in two aspects of biomedicine and ecology. Glycolide is a ring dimer of glycolic acid. The ring-opening polymerization of glycolide is a relatively mature method for preparing polyglycolic acid. This method can obtain polyglycolic acid products with higher relative molecular weight. Glycolide’s Purity is directly related to the performance of polyglycolic acid. [0003] At present, there are two main synthetic routes of glycolide: the first is to prepare glycolide with chloroacetic acid as raw material; the second is to prepare glycolide with glycolic acid (ester) as raw material. The disadvantage of the first metho...
