Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention discloses a method for co-producing multiple plasticizers, belonging to the technical field of PVC modified materials. Background Art

[0002] Plasticization is to soften rubber or PVC to have a certain degree of flexibility. The crystals of PVC are very regular and the forces between molecules are very strong. Therefore, PVC products are very hard and not easy to deform. In order to increase the toughness and softness of PVC, plasticizers are generally added to PVC products. Commonly used DOP (dioctyl phthalate) and DBP (dibutyl phthalate) are both aromatic plasticizers; their role in PVC is to allow long-chain molecules to extend between PVC molecular crystals, increase the lubricity between molecules, reduce the tightness of molecules, and allow molecules to "slide" slightly, making the product soft. One of the biggest features of aromatic plasticizers is that the dielectric constant is very large, which can increase the insulation effect of cables, so they are widely used in rubber sheathed cables and PVC cable industries.

[0003] There are several aromatic plasticizers that are nearly colorless and transparent, and can be used in some brightly colored rubber products or PVC products. Aromatic plasticizers can be specifically divided into:

[0004] 1) Dark aromatic plasticizers can be used as plasticizers for rubber products that require high temperature resistance, weather resistance and high performance, such as rubber sheath cable materials.

[0005] 2) Light-colored aromatic plasticizer 1# can be used as a plasticizer for rubber products used in the production of high-end colored tires, such as colored bicycle tires.

[0006] 3) Light-colored aromatic plasticizer 2# is used as a plasticizer for transparent rubber products, such as kayaks and windsurfing boards.

[0007] Light-colored aromatic plasticizer 1# and light-colored aromatic rubber plasticizer 2# can be used together with polyester plasticizer to improve the compatibility of polyester and PVC.

[0008] In the prior art, most plasticizers are extracted separately by intermittent distillation, which has low production efficiency and cannot guarantee the stability and consistency of product quality. Summary of the invention

The remaining material flows into the top of the tower extraction pump to control the extraction volume, which accounts for 11% of the total raw material volume.

[0126] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and does not limit the present invention in other forms. Any technician familiar with the profession may use the above disclosed technical content to change or modify it into an equivalent embodiment with equivalent changes. However, any simple modification, equivalent change and modification made to the above embodiment according to the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the technical solution of the present invention still belongs to the protection scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
