Problems solved by technology

However, the above-mentioned method has adverse effects on the environment due to the use of a large amount of halogen-based organic solvents, and the post-treatment of neutralizing ammonia solution and the like is complicated and impairs economic efficiency, so it is not suitable for large-scale treatment and reuse of polycarbonate compound resins.

Embodiment 1

[0066] Into a tubular reaction tube made of SUS316 with a total volume of 6 mL, 0.11 g of polycarbonate resin pellets (AD-5503 manufactured by Teijin Chemicals Co., Ltd.) were added, 1.1 g of water was added, the pressure was set to 25 MPa, and the tube was sealed. The inside of the reaction tube was replaced with argon to make it an inert gas atmosphere, and then immersed in a sand bath preheated to 400°C for 3 minutes. Here, the ion product Kw under the above conditions = 10 -20 mol 2 / kg 2 , Dielectric constant = 2. Then, the reaction tube was dipped in water and rapidly cooled to room temperature, and the content was taken into a glass bottle. Under the temperature and pressure conditions of 20°C and 0.1 MPa, the content was a colorless and transparent homogeneous aqueous solution without solid components. In addition, gas is generated when taking it out. Then, when the above-mentioned aqueous solution was left to stand for a certain period of time, the precipitation o...

Embodiment 2

[0069] 0.08 g of polycarbonate resin pellets were added to the reaction tube, 0.84 g of water was added, and the pressure was adjusted to 25 MPa, followed by immersion in a sand bath preheated to 420° C., and decomposed in the same manner as in Example 1. Table 1 shows the ion product and dielectric constant under the above conditions. After the reaction, the content was taken into a glass bottle. Under the temperature and pressure conditions of 20° C. and 0.1 MPa, the content was a colorless and transparent homogeneous aqueous solution without solid components. The amount of 2,2-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)propane contained in the aqueous solution was determined in the same manner as in Example 1, and is shown in Table 1.

Embodiment 3

[0071] 0.06 g of polycarbonate resin pellets were added to the reaction tube, 0.60 g of water was added, and the pressure was adjusted to 20 MPa, and the reaction tube was immersed in a sand bath preheated to 400° C., and decomposed in the same manner as in Example 1. Table 1 shows the ion product and dielectric constant under the above conditions. After the reaction, the content was taken into a glass bottle. Under the temperature and pressure conditions of 20° C. and 0.1 MPa, the content was a colorless and transparent homogeneous aqueous solution without solid components. Table 1 shows the amount of 2,2-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)propane (bisphenol A) contained in the aqueous solution in the same manner as in Example 1.

Abstract

A method of decomposing a polycarbonate with water in a supercritical or subcritical state. A high-purity dihydroxy compound which is a constituent component of the polycarbonate can be recovered at a high yield by this decomposition method. This decomposition method is environment-friendly because it does not use an organic solvent, easy to be carried out, has a high decomposition rate and rarely causes a side reaction.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for decomposing polycarbonates with water in a supercritical or subcritical state. More specifically, it relates to a method of decomposing polycarbonate by the above-mentioned method and recovering a dihydroxy compound as a raw material. Background technique [0002] Polycarbonate resins are excellent in heat resistance, impact resistance, and transparency, and are used as optical materials such as lenses and contact lenses. They are also used in various applications such as building materials, automobile parts, and OA equipment, and are mass-produced and consumed. Its usage is increasing year by year, and it is predicted that it will further increase in the future. [0003] In addition, known polycarbonate resins include polycarbonate compound resins in which olefin resins such as acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) resins are mixed. This polycarbonate compound resin has excellent impact resistance, fluid...
