Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to a method for preparing a high-imino high-methyl etherified hexamethoxy melamine resin and its granulation, and belongs to the technical field of preparation of rubber adhesive materials. Background Art

[0002] Hexamethoxymethylmelamine (HMMM) has a hexafunctional single molecule structure, high reactivity and cross-linking properties, good miscibility with alkyd resins, polyester resins, acrylic resins, epoxy resins, phenolic resins, etc., and good water solubility, making it suitable for use as a cross-linking agent for low-VOC coatings.

[0003] Although there are many preparations and applications of HMMM, the etherification reaction is the dehydration etherification of the active hydroxymethyl terminal hydroxyl group of HMM and the alcohol hydroxyl group under the catalytic action of acid. When the acid is used as a catalyst, methanol is activated to form a carbon cation, which attacks the nucleophilic hydroxymethyl group. Similar to the reaction network of hydroxymethylation of melamine and formaldehyde, HMM also has an etherification condensation reaction with six reaction sites. The precursor of HMMM is HMM, which is obtained by the reaction of melamine and formaldehyde aqueous solution. The product HMM is insoluble in water. In the etherification reaction process of HMM and methanol, water is one of the products of the etherification reaction. The presence of water will affect the equilibrium of the etherification reaction, causing the reaction equilibrium to move in reverse and hindering the formation of etherification products. In order to obtain a high etherification product, a high methyl etherification product can be obtained by reacting dry HMM with methanol.

[0004] In the actual production reaction, methanol reacts with HMM, and methanol is both a solvent and a reactant. However, HMM is not soluble in methanol, and the reaction system is initially a heterogeneous system. The reaction process is carried out on the surface of HMM particles, and the reaction rate is affected by the particle size and aggregation state. As the etherification reaction proceeds, the system gradually becomes homogeneous. Temperature also has a great influence on the etherification reaction, and low temperature is the key to preventing condensation side reactions from occurring during the etherification reaction. Usually, below 50°C, the reaction is mainly manifested as a methyl etherification reaction, and polycondensation rarely occurs. The reaction product is a mononuclear (triazine ring) etherified product with different etherification degrees. When it exceeds 50°C, the polycondensation side reaction increases significantly, and the higher the temperature, the more serious the degree of polycondensation and cross-linking gel. In addition, acid is an etherification reaction catalyst, and too low pH is prone to induce polycondensation and cross-linking between hydroxymethyl groups; if the pH is too high, the reaction rate is too slow and the etherification is incomplete. When the reaction system pH = 3.5, the etherification reaction is complete, and polycondensation side reactions rarely occur.

[0005] Methylated melamine resins are generally divided into polymerized partially methylated melamine resins, polymerized high-imino high-methylated melamine resins and monomeric high-methylated melamine resins. Due to the low degree of etherification of partially methylated products and the low content of hydroxymethyl in monomeric products, high-imino products have the best comprehensive performance in back-end applications, retaining a certain amount of unreacted active hydrogen atoms and a certain amount of residual hydroxymethyl. When it reacts with a matrix resin containing hydroxyl, carboxyl, and amide groups, it has a faster curing property due to the high content of imino in the resin, and the addition of weak acid can accelerate the curing reaction. Therefore, the market prospects are broad.

[0006] At present, the production process of high-iminomethyl etherified resin is roughly divided into two types: one is a one-step method, that is, the raw materials are put in at one time, and the reaction is controlled by adjusting the pH value of the system; the other is a two-step method, that is, the intermediate of tetramethylol melamine is first synthesized (very difficult to industrialize), and then etherification is carried out. However, in actual synthesis, no matter which process is used, it is difficult to control the generation and growth of the intermediate, resulting in a very high viscosity of the system during the back-end etherification. Summary of the invention

[0007] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for synthesizing a high-imino high-methyl etherified hexamethoxy melamine resin and preparing the same by granulation.
