Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention specifically relates to a polymerization production method for a 10°C liquid terpene resin. Background Art
[0002] Liquid terpene resin is a low molecular weight linear polymer made from selected turpentine oil as the basic raw material. After refining, it is polymerized with Friedel-Crafts as the catalyst, and then developed through processes such as hydrolysis, washing, filtration and distillation. It is suitable for preparing EVA, SIS, SBS hot melt adhesives and other adhesives with good initial adhesion, high cold resistance and soft performance. Liquid terpene resin has always played a particularly important role in adhesives, especially its unique cold resistance and good initial adhesion performance.
[0003] The existing liquid terpene resin products have a number average molecular weight > Mn600 and a weight average molecular weight > Mw800. When used as glue at lower ambient temperatures, such as -20°C in the north, the initial viscosity may be poor or the product may become non-sticky after complete curing. This shortcoming imposes certain environmental limitations on the use of the product. Summary of the invention
[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings and disadvantages of the prior art, the primary purpose of the present invention is to provide a polymerization production method for a 10°C liquid terpene resin, which prevents excessive reaction to generate high molecules during the polymerization of turpentine and aluminum chloride, destroys a certain polymerization activity of the catalyst by adding a certain amount of ethanol inhibitor, and controls the polymerization process temperature at 8-12°C to suppress the problem of high polymerization degree of isopentylene due to its high activity, thereby obtaining a terpene polymer liquid with a narrow molecular weight distribution and a small and uniform size.
[0005] The primary purpose of the present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0006] A polymerization production method for a 10°C liquid terpene resin comprises the following steps:
[0007] Prepare a raw material solution, the raw materials comprising:
[0008] The mass of turpentine is 6000kg±10%, the mass of toluene is 5400kg±10%, the mass of longifolene is 3600kg±5%, the mass of terpinene is 600kg±5%, the mass of isoprene is 1800kg±5%, the mass of aluminum chloride is 210kg±2%, and the mass of ethanol is 24kg±1%;
[0009] The turpentine is pumped into the high-level tank twice, 3600kg±10% is pumped into the first time, and the remaining 2400kg±10% is added to 24kg±10% of ethanol at a mass ratio of 1% in the second time, and stirred evenly and then added dropwise for later use;
[0010] In the polymerization kettle, check that the kettle bottom valve, turpentine metering tank bottom valve and toluene metering tank bottom valve are closed, and confirm that the tail gas system is unobstructed;
[0011] Pump the prepared 3600kg±10% turpentine and 5400kg±10% toluene into the metering tank and let it stand for 30 minutes. After confirming that the water is drained cleanly, open the bottom valve of the toluene metering tank and add anhydrous toluene into the polymerization reactor;
[0012] Start the polymerization reactor stirring, open the chilled water inlet valve and the cold brine pump, and when the temperature in the reactor drops to 10°C, close the brine pump and continue to cool down to 0°C;
[0013] When the temperature in the kettle drops to 0°C, add 70kg of catalyst. If the temperature of the reactor does not rise significantly, start adding turpentine. Stop adding turpentine when the reaction temperature reaches 17°C.
[0014] The reaction temperature is controlled between 8°C and 13°C, and the remaining turpentine is gradually added dropwise, and the temperature is continuously lowered to 8°C each time the turpentine is added until all the turpentine has been added;
[0015] After the turpentine oil is added, continue to keep warm and react for 30 minutes;
[0016] The reaction was carried out at a temperature of 12°C to 15°C for 2 hours, and the material was discharged after the reaction was completed.
[0017] Preferably, the purity of the longifolene is 80%, the purity of the terpinene is 90%, the purity of the piperylene is 72%, and the ethanol is analytical grade ethanol.
[0018] Preferably, the appearance of the polymerization liquid is a wine red liquid at the end of the polymerization.
[0019] Preferably, after the polymerization reaction is completed, the reaction is cooled to room temperature and separated and purified to obtain a stable low molecular weight terpene resin.
[0020] Preferably, the catalyst is aluminum chloride, and the added amount is 210 kg ± 2%.
[0021] Preferably, the temperature in the polymerization vessel is controlled by a cold brine pump.
[0022] Preferably, the amount of ethanol added is 0.5% to 3% by weight.
[0023] Preferably, the weight ratio of turpentine to longifolene is 1:1 to 1:2, the weight ratio of turpentine to terpinene is 1:1 to 1:2, and the weight ratio of turpentine to piperylene is 1:0.1 to 1:0.3.
[0024] Preferably, the amount of aluminum trichloride added is 0.1% to 1.0% of the total mass of the polymerization reactants.
[0025] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0026] After improvement, during the cationic polymerization of turpentine, 10% of absolute ethanol or 15% of terpineol is added as polymerization inhibitor in terms of raw materials, and the polymerization process temperature of turpentine is also adjusted to 25 - 30 °C for polymerization. Polymerization at a higher temperature can make the molecular weight distribution narrower and more uniform. Through a large number of experimental demonstrations and test data, it can be known that linear polymers with number average molecular weight <Mn 400, weight average molecular weight <Mw 400, and glass transition temperature of about -35 °C can be obtained by polymerizing at 25 - 30 °C. The liquid terpene resin product with number average molecular weight <Mn 400, weight average molecular weight <Mw 400, and glass transition temperature of -35 °C overcomes the technical problems such as poor initial adhesion or complete non - adhesion after curing when used as glue at environmental temperatures such as -20 °C in the north.

[0099] Performance test experiment
[0100] Experimental Materials:
[0101] Sample A: 10°C liquid terpene resin prepared according to Example 1;
[0102] Sample B: 10°C liquid terpene resin prepared according to Example 2;
[0103] Sample C: 10°C liquid terpene resin prepared according to Example 3;
[0104] Control sample D: existing liquid terpene resin product;
[0105] Equipment: Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC)
[0106] Experimental methods:
[0107] Sample preparation: Take 10 mg of each of Sample A, Sample B, Sample C, and Sample D obtained from the experiment; the samples need to be dried to remove any residual solvent.
[0108] Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) Analysis:
[0109] The glass transition temperature was measured using DSC, with the temperature range set to -80°C to +100°C and the heating rate set to 10°C / min.
[0110] During the experiment, the heat flow curve of the sample was recorded to identify the glass transition temperature (T g ) position. The glass transition temperature is usually determined by the transition point on the curve (i.e., the step change that occurs in the heat flow curve).
[0111] The sample is first kept at a constant temperature at low temperature. As the temperature gradually rises, the sample will undergo a transition from glassy state to rubbery state. At this time, the glass transition temperature will appear as a step jump in the heat flow curve (T g ).
[0112] Data Analysis:
[0113] The glass transition temperature of each sample was determined by analyzing the transition temperature in the DSC curve.
[0114] Glass transition temperature (T g ) can be quantitatively analyzed by the step change of the curve (i.e. the temperature where the heat flow changes significantly).
[0115] The experimental results are shown in Table 1 below.
[0116] Table 1
[0117] sample <![CDATA[Glass transition temperature (T g )]]> Sample A -35℃ Sample B -33℃ Sample C -32℃ Sample D -20℃
[0118] The glass transition temperatures of samples A, B and C are significantly lower than those of sample D, which indicates that a liquid terpene resin having a glass transition temperature lower than that of conventional products is successfully prepared by the formulation and process of the present invention.
[0119] The glass transition temperatures of samples B and C are close to -35 °C, proving that the process adjustments made according to the above scheme have a significant effect on the properties of the final polymer, which may be due to different molecular structures or increased flexibility of the polymer chains, resulting in a glass transition temperature lower than that of conventional products.

Any technical solutions formed by equivalent replacement or equivalent transformation fall within the scope of protection required by the present invention.
