Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of catalysis, in particular to a preparation method and application of a novel vinyl lactam catalyst. Background Art

[0002] Vinyl lactams are widely used. Due to the presence of vinyl groups, they can polymerize themselves or participate in the synthesis of polymers. At the same time, due to their unique structural units, they can participate in the polymerization reaction of different polymer monomers to modify various types of polymers. For example, N-vinyl pyrrolidone (NVP) used to synthesize water-soluble comonomers and copolymers obtained by polymerizing N-vinyl lactams are used as solubilizers for bioactive substances that are difficult to dissolve in water in the cosmetic or pharmaceutical industries. They also have the advantages of being compatible with biological systems, non-toxic, and stable over a large pH range. 4-Vinyl-5-methyloxazolidinone (VMOX) has attracted widespread attention in the printing industry due to the excellent adhesion of its copolymers with acrylates on all common substrates. Therefore, this type of substance has a wide range of applications and good market prospects, such as the production of paper coatings, adhesives, printing inks, detergents, engine oil additives, textile auxiliaries, radiation solid surface coatings, cosmetics, drugs, oil recovery aids, and photographic chemicals.

[0003] The synthesis methods of vinyl lactams are mainly acetylene method and non-acetylene method.

[0004] Currently, the most widely used method for producing vinyl lactam is still the acetylene method because its reaction process is conducive to industrialization.

[0006]

[0007] However, the acetylene method will produce a large amount of water during the preparation of the catalyst. Although most of the water can be removed in time through methods such as reduced pressure distillation, the small amount of residual water will still have a great impact on the entire reaction process.

[0039]

[0040]

[0041] Example 2

[0042] Application of new vinyl lactam catalysts: New vinyl lactam catalysts are used in the production of vinyl lactam by the reaction of lactam substances with acetylene.

[0043] Take 1000g of caprolactam and 100g of the solid catalyst of 10wt% and add them into a stainless steel autoclave with stirring and no problem of pressure maintenance, cover the sealing cover of the equipment, seal the equipment, replace it with nitrogen three times first, the purpose is to replace the air in the autoclave, and then replace it with acetylene three times, the purpose is to replace the nitrogen in the autoclave, and then start heating. When the material is heated to 170°C, start to pass acetylene gas, control the reaction temperature at about 170°C, the reaction pressure at 0.15MPa (close the air inlet valve after reaching the reaction pressure to start the reaction, and continue to pass acetylene gas after the pressure drops), the reaction is 5h, after the reaction is completed, cool to below 80°C, replace it with nitrogen twice, and then open the sealing cover to discharge.

[0045]

[0046]

[0047] Reaction conditions: reaction temperature 170°C, reaction time 5 hours, acetylene gas pressure 0.15 MPa, catalyst concentration 10 wt%.

[0048] As shown in Table 2, the activity of the catalyst is closely related to the mass volume ratio of the sodium hydroxide solution and the heating temperature during the preparation process.

The preferred mass volume ratio of the sodium hydroxide solution is 0.1-0.15 g / mL, and the preferred heating temperature is 60-70°C. Under these conditions, the activity of the catalyst obtained is relatively high.

When the material is heated to 170°C, start to introduce acetylene gas, control the reaction temperature at around 170°C and the reaction pressure at 0.15MPa (close the air inlet valve after reaching the reaction pressure to start the reaction, and continue to introduce acetylene gas when the pressure drops), react for 5h, and after the reaction is completed, cool to below 80°C, replace it with nitrogen twice, and then open the sealing lid to discharge the material. After discharging, centrifuge the catalyst and the reaction liquid, recover the solid catalyst, re-add caprolactam to verify the recycling effect. The experimental results show that within six cycles (see Figure 1 ), the conversion rate of the target product is stable and the recycling performance is good.

[0051] Example 4

[0052] Take 1000g of caprolactam and 100g of the solid catalyst of 10wt% and add them into a stainless steel autoclave with stirring and no problem of pressure maintenance, cover the sealing lid of the equipment, seal the equipment, replace with nitrogen three times first, the purpose is to replace the air in the autoclave cleanly, then replace with acetylene three times, the purpose is to replace the nitrogen in the autoclave cleanly, then start heating, when the material is heated to 170°C, start to pass acetylene gas, control the reaction temperature at about 170°C, the reaction pressure at 0.15MPa (after reaching the reaction pressure, close the air inlet valve to start the reaction, and continue to pass acetylene gas after the pressure drops), the reaction is 5h, after the reaction is completed, cool to below 80°C, replace with nitrogen twice, and then open the sealing cover to discharge. The control group has the same reaction conditions, and the catalyst is KOH, NaOH, etc., as shown in Table 3.
