Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of rubber and plastic plasticizing applications, and in particular to a production process of cycloalkyl mineral oil, a yellowing-resistant rubber plasticizer. Background Art

[0002] Rubber plasticizer cycloalkane mineral oil is a fractionation product of petroleum. Its main components are compounds such as alkanes, cycloalkanes and very small amounts of aromatic hydrocarbons. It plays an important role as an auxiliary agent in the rubber industry, which can increase the plasticity, flexibility, tensile properties of rubber and make it easier to process.

[0003] An ideal rubber plasticizer requires good compatibility with rubber and good processing performance; strong antioxidant stability, excellent low-temperature fluidity, and high-temperature safety performance; low content of impurities such as acid, alkali, sulfur, nitrogen, and ash, little pollution to the environment, and no threat to human health. Therefore, rubber plasticizers must be deeply refined products from petroleum distillates.

[0004] The yellowing-resistant naphthenic mineral oil of rubber plasticizer requires more stringent technical indicators than ordinary rubber plasticizer naphthenic mineral oil, which is reflected in the good light and heat stability on the basis of ensuring a high CN value. The traditional processing technology adopts acid-base refining-kaolin refining. This process will produce a large amount of waste acid and alkali, waste kaolin, and cause serious environmental pollution. The product yield is low, the color is dark, and the quality is poor. Alternatively, a combined process of hydrogenation refining-secondary solvent refining-kaolin supplementary refining is adopted. This process is long, the processing cost is high, there is also waste kaolin pollution, the product color is light yellow, and the use of rubber plasticizers will cause the yellowing resistance of rubber to deteriorate.

[0005] According to the development trend of clean and environmentally friendly products, this invention adopts a combined process of high-pressure hydrogenation treatment - isomerization dewaxing - hydrogenation refining, which has the advantages of good compatibility between the product and rubber, excellent stability, and a clean and friendly production environment.
