Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of rubber vulcanization accelerator TBSI production, and particularly relates to a production system and a production method for continuously producing rubber vulcanization accelerator TBSI. Background Art
[0002] Rubber vulcanization accelerators are the main auxiliaries for promoting rubber vulcanization. Their function is to activate the vulcanizing agent when added to the rubber compound, thereby accelerating the cross-linking reaction between the vulcanizing agent and rubber molecules, achieving the effects of shortening the vulcanization time and reducing the vulcanization temperature. Rubber vulcanization accelerators are mainly classified into six types according to their chemical structures, namely sulfenamides, thiazoles, thiurams, guanidines, thioureas, and dithiocarbamates. Among them, sulfenamide accelerators account for more than 30% of the total amount of accelerators. However, with the increasingly severe national environmental protection situation, during the processing of tires and other rubber products, the generation of toxic nitrosamines will affect human physical and mental health, and the generation of nitrosamines is the result of using sulfenamide accelerators containing secondary amine groups. Therefore, the research and development of new environmentally friendly auxiliaries and the research and optimization of their preparation processes have become an inevitable trend. N-tert-butyl-bis(2-benzothiazolyl) sulfenimide (TBSI) is a general-purpose primary amine sulfenamide rubber vulcanization accelerator, which has good scorch resistance and operating stability, and can replace the widely used accelerators NOBS, DCBS, and TBBS combined with the anti-scorch agent CTP.
[0003] At present, there are five routes for the synthesis process of TBSI, namely sulfenimide chloride method, acid method, acid anhydride method, catalytic oxidation method, and hydrogen peroxide oxidation method. Chinese patent document CN106916117A discloses a process for preparing TBSI by catalytic oxidation. In this method, accelerator M is dissolved in an excessive amount of tert-butylamine to form a solution, and a catalyst is added for high-pressure reaction. However, it can be seen from the patent that the product yield of this process is only about 65%, and it belongs to batch reaction, with relatively low production efficiency. Subsequently, acetic anhydride is required for recrystallization, increasing the production cost. Summary of the Invention

[0032] The technical effects of the present invention:
[0033] The present invention uses a closed continuous autoclave production equipment to prepare vulcanization accelerator TBSI, realizing automatic control and continuous production of products; the pressurized closed reaction avoids the volatilization of materials, protects the environment and reduces consumption.
[0034] In this application, through the dual control of the oxygen flow regulating valve group and the in-kettle pressure control regulating valve group at the upper part of each stage of the reaction kettle, while maintaining the stability of the pressure in each stage of the kettle, by setting an oxygen flow rate far higher than the theoretical requirement, the oxygen released by the pressure control regulating valve group is compressed by a compressor and then recycled into the reaction system, increasing the circulation of oxygen in each stage of the reaction kettle, improving the contact ratio of gas and liquid, and enhancing the reaction efficiency. In this application, the oxygen flow rate of each stage of the reaction kettle is set by first calculating the theoretical oxygen amount required for a specific pressure of each stage of the reaction kettle according to the ideal gas state equation, and then inputting oxygen into each stage of the reaction kettle by adjusting the oxygen flow regulating valve group according to 1 to 5 times of the theoretical oxygen amount.
[0035] In addition, in this application, a gas distributor is also used to solve the problems of poor fluidity of oxygen in the kettle and small gas-liquid ratio, increasing the contact probability between the oxidant and the reaction materials, and enhancing the reaction efficiency. Pressure regulating valve groups are connected to the pipelines connecting the first-stage reaction kettle, the second-stage reaction kettle, and the third-stage reaction kettle. The pressure regulating valve groups are used to maintain the pressure of each kettle. When the pressure in the kettle exceeds the set value, the regulating valve opens to release the oxygen pressure to the oxygen buffer tank, and then after being pressurized by the oxygen compressor, it returns to the system again, realizing the recycling of oxygen; due to the multiple supply of oxygen and the pressure regulating effect of the pressure regulating system in this application, when all mechanical equipment operates normally, it can effectively ensure the reaction time of the entire reaction, realizing continuous production, improving the equipment utilization rate and production efficiency, solving the defect that there are differences in the quality of products between batches, and avoiding the strong labor intensity of workers in intermittent production.

The MBT powder is continuously transported into the powder-liquid mixing pump 3 at a flow rate of 15 kg / min. At the same time, the pulping water is continuously transported into the powder-liquid mixing pump through the transport pump 4 and the flow regulating valve group 4-1 at a flow rate of 37.5 kg / min. The MBT powder and the pulping water are mixed in the powder mixing pump to form a slurry.
[0079] 2) The MBT slurry is transported to the first-stage reaction kettle through the pipe mixer 7. The tert-butylamine solution and the catalyst solution are pumped into the pipe mixer and then transported to the first-stage reaction kettle; and then transported to the second-stage reaction kettle and the third-stage reaction kettle in sequence through the transfer pump and the liquid level regulating valve group.

As shown in steps 2) and 3) of Example 2, the oxygen flow rate, the pressure in the kettle, the liquid level control, and the opening of the transport pump in each stage of the reaction kettle are adjusted in sequence until the slurry is transported to the slurry buffer tank. The slurry buffer tank liquid level is set and controlled by the buffer tank liquid level regulating valve group 13-2. The slurry is transported to the continuous filtration and washing device 14 through the transport pump, and after filtration and washing, it is transported to the continuous drying device 15 for drying to obtain the TBSI finished product. Among them, the oxygen flow rate in the first-stage reaction kettle is 15.6 kg / min, the oxygen flow rate in the second-stage reaction kettle is 17 kg / min, and the oxygen flow rate in the third-stage reaction kettle is 18.2 kg / min; the pressure in the first-stage reaction kettle is 0.4 MPa, the pressure in the second-stage reaction kettle is 0.45 MPa, and the pressure in the third-stage reaction kettle is 0.50 MPa;
