Abstract

The invention relates to a solid acid catalyst for preparing ethylene glycol by hydration of ethylene oxide, which mainly solves the problem of high water ratio, high energy consumption, high production cost, or liquid used in catalytic hydration of ethylene oxide in the past. Acid catalysts corrode equipment, pollute the environment, and solid acid catalysts have poor stability or the defects of stability and activity cannot be taken into account at the same time. A solid acid catalyst for preparing ethylene glycol by hydration of ethylene oxide is provided. The metal compound is used as the main active component, and the technical scheme of at least one auxiliary agent selected from the metal compound of IVB and the metal compound of vanadium or tantalum is optionally added, and the solid acid catalyst prepared is used for the hydration of ethylene oxide to prepare ethylene oxide. The diol reaction not only has good activity and selectivity, is suitable for low water ratio operation, but also has good stability, which can significantly reduce energy consumption and greatly reduce production costs. It can be used in the industrial production of ethylene glycol.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a solid acid catalyst for preparing ethylene glycol by the hydration reaction of ethylene oxide, in particular to a niobic acid catalyst for preparing ethylene glycol by the hydration reaction of ethylene oxide. Background technique [0002] Ethylene glycol is an important aliphatic dihydric alcohol with a wide range of uses, mainly for the production of polyester resins, including fibers, films and engineering plastics. It can also be directly used as coolant and antifreeze, and it is also an indispensable substance in the production of alkyd resins, plasticizers, paints, adhesives, surfactants, explosives and capacitor electrolytes. [0003] There are two main processes for preparing ethylene glycol from ethylene oxide: one is the direct hydration method, in which ethylene oxide and water react to form ethylene glycol under certain conditions, and the reaction can be carried out without a cataly...
