Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of chemical production, and specifically relates to a method and a device for preparing organic silicon microspheres from high boiling point methyltrimethoxysilane. Background Art
[0002] As an important organosilicon compound, methyltrimethoxysilane is increasingly used in many fields, including the rubber industry, coating industry, adhesive industry, etc. Its production process can be simplified to the process of alcoholysis of monomethyltrichlorosilane and methanol followed by neutralization and distillation. However, in this process, since the raw material methanol inevitably contains trace amounts of water, a series of side reactions occur and polymers are generated. These polymers are deposited during the deweighting process and eventually form high-boiling products. High-boiling products mainly contain unreacted methanol, methyltrimethoxysilane and methyltrimethoxysilane polymers, which have great combustion hazards.
[0003] At present, the methods for treating these high boiling products mainly include cracking and direct incineration. Although the cracking reaction can recycle the high boiling products, it is relatively expensive and not suitable for large-scale production. Although direct incineration is easy to operate and low in cost, it cannot effectively utilize the high boiling products and will pollute the environment. Therefore, how to effectively treat the high boiling products generated in the production process of methyltrimethoxysilane while reducing costs and reducing the impact on the environment has become a key issue facing this field. In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a method for preparing organosilicon microspheres from high-boiling methyltrimethoxysilane, which effectively solves the above problems.
[0004] A method for preparing organosilicon microspheres from high boiling point methyltrimethoxysilane, comprising the following steps: (1) Pretreatment of high boiling products: The high boiling products produced as by-products in the production process of methyltrimethoxysilane are mixed with methanol and methyltrimethoxysilane to form material A, and then instrument gas is blown in and a treatment agent is added to react. Subsequently, the excess impurities are removed through a multi-stage filter to obtain a purified material; (2) The purified material is mixed with deionized water in a certain proportion, and a hydrolysis reaction is completed under the catalysis of sulfuric acid with a mass fraction of 98% or more, and then preliminarily mixed with a prefabricated alkali solution in a mixer and sent to a polymerization kettle to complete a polymerization reaction to obtain a polymerization solution; (3) The polymer solution can be filtered, dried and crushed to obtain pure white silicone microspheres.
[0005] The high-boiling by-product in the production process of methyltrimethoxysilane is a polymer with uneven polymerization degree formed by the alcoholysis reaction of monomethyltrichlorosilane and methanol to generate methyltrimethoxysilane. The polymer is discharged as a high-boiling by-product in the production process of methyltrimethoxysilane.
[0006] For example, in the preparation process of methyltrimethoxysilane reported in CN113861233 A in the related patent of the present applicant, in the process of obtaining the crude methyltrimethoxysilane, some by-products, i.e., high boiling products, are also obtained. The high boiling products are obtained by adding methanol and solvent into a mixer in proportion and mixing them evenly, and then monomethyltrichlorosilane and the mixed liquid in the mixer are simultaneously introduced into the venturi mixer in proportion. The two are fully mixed and reacted. In the reaction process, some high boiling products are produced, which are separated by a distillation tower to obtain the methyltrimethoxysilane high boiling product.
[0007] The contents of the components in the material A in step (1) are prepared as follows: 2% to 5% methanol, 20% to 30% methyltrimethoxysilane, and 65% to 78% high-boiling by-products produced during the production of methyltrimethoxysilane.
[0008] In the material A of the present invention, the polymerization degree of high-boiling substances is uneven, and stratification is easy to occur. In the production of methyltrimethoxysilane, the production parameters fluctuate within a certain range, so that the content of high-boiling substances is high or low. In order to make the substances in the raw material A more balanced, a certain amount of methanol is added as a solvent to make the high-boiling substances more evenly mixed. Adding a certain amount of methyltrimethoxysilane: avoids the problem of difficult control of the content of by-product high-boiling substances and controls the stability of the raw materials.
[0009] After material A is put into the pretreatment kettle, instrument gas is continuously introduced for bubbling during the stirring process, and the oxygen in the instrument gas is used to oxidize some substances in material A; the water content in the instrument gas is less than 50ppm; then the treatment agent is added to the pretreatment kettle, and the amount added is 0.5%~1% of material A. The temperature of the pretreatment kettle is controlled to be maintained at 70~80℃, the pressure is 0.1Mpa~0.15Mpa, and the reaction time is controlled to be 60min~90min.
[0010] The treating agent is one of sodium methoxide, sodium ethoxide, aluminum chloride, ferric chloride and the like.
[0011] After the pretreatment kettle, the material A is passed through a primary filter for primary filtration, and the filter medium is quartz sand to remove the granular crystals or mechanical impurities that may appear in the solution; after the primary filtration, the material A enters a secondary filter for fine filtration, and the filter medium is a microporous filter membrane, exchange resin, etc., to further reduce the content of fine particles and improve the transparency of the material A. Step (2) The material A is transferred to the hydrolysis kettle, and pure water and 98% sulfuric acid are added from the top of the hydrolysis kettle to the bottom of the kettle at the same time, and the mass ratio is material A: water: sulfuric acid = 100: 500~800: 0.01~0.05, and the temperature of the hydrolysis kettle is controlled to be 60~75°C. The prefabricated alkali solution contains water, a surfactant, and an alkali catalyst. The surfactant is one or more of nonylphenol polyoxyethylene ether, polyoxyethylene fatty alcohol ether, sulfonate and the like. The alkali catalyst is one of sodium hydroxide solution, ammonia water, potassium hydroxide solution, alcohol amine and the like. The mass ratios of the substances are: water: surfactant = 100: 0.05~2. The molar concentration of the alkali catalyst is controlled at 0.1mol / L~0.35mol / L, and the added amount is 5~9% of the mass of the hydrolyzate of material A.
[0012] The water used in the present invention is deionized water.
[0013] The treated material A is introduced into the hydrolysis kettle by bottom feeding. At the same time, the side of the hydrolysis kettle has one or more openings, which can make the liquid in the kettle overflow into the transfer tank, and the mixed solution stays in the kettle for 30~45min (i.e., the hydrolysis reaction time is 30-45min). The hydrolyzed solution and the pre-made alkaline solution are introduced into the mixer at a mass ratio of hydrolyzate: pre-made alkaline solution = 1:1~1.5 to complete the preliminary mixing, and then the material is fed from the bottom of the polymerization kettle, and further mixed evenly under the action of stirring. At the same time, the side of the polymerization kettle has one or more openings, which can make the polymerization liquid overflow into the static tank, ensuring that the polymerization liquid stays in the kettle for 15~25min (i.e., the polymerization reaction time is 15-25min).
[0014] After the polymer solution in step (3) is placed in a standing tank for 1 to 2 hours, the polymer solution is centrifuged to separate the solid matter, and then flash drying and air flow pulverization are used to quickly obtain a particle size distribution of 1 to 20 μm, a refractive index of 1.41 to 1.43, and a bulk density of 0.4 to 0.6 g / cm 3 Pure white silicone microspheres are produced, and the yield of silicone microspheres is >80%.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: 1. Efficient use of by-product resources: Most organosilicon microspheres are prepared using high-purity methylalkoxysilane. The present invention makes full use of the by-product high-boiling substances produced in the production of methyltrimethoxysilane to prepare organosilicon microspheres, which not only reduces the requirements and costs for raw materials, but also significantly reduces the processing costs of high-boiling substances, greatly improving their utilization value.
[0016] 2. Pretreatment is economical and efficient: The application of instrument gas bubbling technology not only promotes the reaction of unoxidized substances in high-boiling products, but also reduces process costs compared to the direct use of dry oxygen. At the same time, by adding any one of the treatment agents sodium methoxide, sodium ethoxide, aluminum trichloride, and ferric chloride, some unsaturated substances and chloride ions in high-boiling products are effectively removed, avoiding the agglomeration phenomenon caused by rapid hydrolysis and ensuring the quality of silicone microspheres.
[0017] 3. Precise particle size control: By adjusting the proportion of components in the high-boiling material, this method can effectively control the size and distribution of the silicone microspheres and produce microspheres of uniform size to meet the strict requirements of different application fields.
[0018] 4. High impurity removal efficiency: The secondary filter uses microporous filter membrane, exchange resin and other filter materials, which can effectively remove fine impurities and some salt substances in high-boiling products, reduce the conductivity of the solution, prevent abnormal agglomeration due to excessively high conductivity during the polycondensation stage, and improve the quality of silicone microspheres.
[0019] 5. High efficiency of production equipment: hydrolysis and polymerization reactions are carried out by overflow mixing, which increases the contact time between the catalyst and the material, realizes continuous production, and reduces power energy consumption. By properly adjusting the catalyst concentration, the phenomenon of excessive local concentration during the mixing of hydrolyzate and alkaline catalyst, which leads to abnormal enlargement and agglomeration of organosilicon microspheres, is avoided, and the consistency and stability of organosilicon microspheres are further ensured.
