Abstract

The application belongs to the technical field of polymer material preparation, and particularly relates to maleic anhydride functionalized long-chain alkane shown in formula I and a preparation method and application thereof. The maleic anhydride functionalized long-chain alkane provided by the application has an extremely similar structure to ASA, and thus exhibits the same performance. The application adopts alkane as a raw material to prepare the maleic anhydride functionalized long-chain alkane, and the raw material is sufficient and low in price. In addition, conventional ASA needs to be subjected to double bond isomerization to transfer the reaction site of maleic anhydride from a terminal position to a non-terminal position. The application adopts a free radical path to synthesize the maleic anhydride functionalized long-chain alkane, and a non-terminal free radical (a double-substituted free radical) is more stable than a terminal substituent (a single-substituted free radical), so that the reaction site is preferentially on the non-terminal position. Therefore, the synthesis process provided by the application is simpler.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of polymer material preparation technology, specifically relating to a maleic anhydride-functionalized long-chain alkane, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Alkenyl succinic anhydrides (ASA) are a general term for a class of organic chemical products, and their structural formulas are shown below.

[0003]

[0004] It contains two hydrophobic carbon chain groups (alkane and olefin segments) and one hydrophilic anhydride group. The anhydride group is highly reactive and can undergo reactions such as hydrolysis, alcoholysis, aminolysis, esterification, and acylation. This unique structure leads to the wide range of applications for ASA. Different carbon numbers in the carbon chain correspond to different uses: ASA with fewer than 10 carbons is typically used in food preparation and as a thickener in some foods such as juices and jellies, while ASA with 10–35 carbons is used as a sizing agent in papermaking, a preservative for wood, a waterproofing agent for leather and textiles, and an additive in varnishes, lubricants, and metalworking fluids, etc.

[0005] ASA is generally synthesized via an alpha-ene reaction between an inner olefin and maleic anhydride. The common industrial approach involves first isolating the α-olefin obtained through Fischer-Tropsch synthesis or ethylene oligomerization into an inner olefin via isomerization, followed by an alpha-ene reaction between the inner olefin and maleic anhydride. However, the supply of raw materials for this route is unreliable; therefore, finding alternatives to ASA and simple, efficient synthetic routes for these alternatives is of great significance.

[0080] Comparative Example 1

[0081] Commercially available ASA samples (prepared using octadecene), manufactured by NALCO. The properties of the ASA samples are shown in Table 1.

[0082] Table 1 Performance characterization results of the products

[0083]

[0084] Analysis of Examples 1-8 shows that as the number of carbon atoms in the functionalized alkane increases, the probability of maleic anhydride grafting to the terminal position gradually decreases. When the number of carbon atoms in the alkane is 13 or more, all grafting reactions occur on non-terminal carbons.

[0085] Comparing Examples 4-6 and Comparative Example 1, it can be seen that when the number of carbon atoms in the functionalized alkane is the same as the number of carbon atoms in the olefin used to synthesize ASA, the maleic anhydride functionalized alkane obtained by this invention has extremely similar properties to imported ASA (appearance, melting point, density, viscosity, acid value, and Cobb 60s value are almost identical). Furthermore, changing the reaction conditions—replacing other functionalized monomers or initiators provided by this invention—can yield maleic anhydride functionalized alkane with properties similar to ASA.

[0086] Comparing Examples 1 to 7, it can be seen that as the number of carbon atoms in the alkane undergoing the functionalization reaction increases, the obtained functionalized alkane exhibits a regular increase in melting point, a gradual decrease in Cobb 60s value, a gradual decrease in acid value, a gradual increase in viscosity, and a gradual decrease in density.

[0087] The liquid paraffin used in Example 8 is C 16 ~C 20 The mixed n-alkanes. Comparative Example 8 and Comparative Example 1 show that when mixed n-alkanes with 16 to 20 carbon atoms undergo functionalization reactions, the resulting maleic anhydride-functionalized liquid paraffin also possesses properties similar to the ASA sample.

[0088] In summary, through structural analysis of ASA, this invention proposes for the first time to replace it with maleic anhydride-functionalized long-chain alkanes, and achieves efficient synthesis of related products at extremely low cost and with a simple process route. Experimental results show that maleic anhydride-functionalized long-chain alkanes can exhibit properties and functions extremely similar to ASA, and are fully capable of replacing it to solve the predicament of insufficient domestic ASA production capacity.

[0089] The embodiments of the present invention have been described above. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
