AI Technical Summary
In the traditional synthesis method of mid-fold vinyl silicone resin, the difference in polymerization rate of trifunctional T units leads to frequent gelation, and the synthesis process produces a lot of wastewater, making it difficult to control the refractive index.
The synthesis process of the medium-fold vinyl silicone resin was optimized by adopting a process flow of low-temperature dropwise hydrolysis, purification with anion and cation exchange resins, water separation and polycondensation, and vacuum solvent removal. The reaction temperature was controlled and the anion and cation exchange resins were used for multiple water washings. In combination with the use of methanol and catalysts, the synthesis process of the medium-fold vinyl silicone resin was optimized.
The gel-free phenomenon is controlled, which significantly reduces the generation of sewage. The refractive index of the synthesized mid-fold vinyl silicone resin is in the range of 1.47-1.49, which meets the application requirements.
Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of chemical industry, in particular to a method for synthesizing a folded vinyl silicone resin. Background Art
[0002] MT vinyl silicone resin is composed of monofunctional M units (Vi(CH3)2SiO1 / 2), trifunctional T units (PhSiO3 / 2), and trifunctional T units (CH3SiO3 / 2). Its vinyl end groups impart excellent crosslinking and adhesion properties, making it widely used in LED encapsulants, addition-type silicone rubber, semiconductor packaging materials, and specialty adhesives. Traditional synthesis methods easily gelate due to the difference in polymerization rates between the trifunctional T units (PhSiO3 / 2) and CH3SiO3 / 2, making its refractive index difficult to control. Furthermore, the synthesis of MT vinyl silicone resin produces a significant amount of wastewater. Summary of the Invention
[0003] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a method for synthesizing a folded vinyl silicone resin, comprising the following steps: Step 1, dropwise hydrolysis: tetramethyldivinyldisiloxane was mixed with methanol, water, and a solvent, trifluoromethanesulfonic acid was added as a catalyst, and a mixture of methyltrimethoxysilane and phenyltrimethoxysilane was added dropwise. During the addition, the reaction material temperature was controlled to be less than 15°C. After the addition was completed, the temperature was raised to 60°C under stirring and refluxed for 3 hours; Step 2: Water washing and purification: The reaction material is circulated and washed with anion and cation exchange resins until its conductivity is less than 5 μS / cm and the pH is 5-7; Step 3, water separation and polycondensation: add 25% KOH alcohol solution as a catalyst to the reaction material, install a water separation device, and reflux at 100°C for 1-3 hours to obtain a polycondensation material; Step 4: Neutralization and water washing: The polycondensation material is cooled to below 60°C and neutralized by adding acetic acid. After neutralization, it is again purified by circulating water washing with anion and cation exchange resin until its conductivity is less than 5 μS / cm and the pH is 5-7. Step 5, filtration: filtering the polycondensation material; Step 6: Vacuum desolventization: Maintain vacuum degree of 100-101.325 kPa at 110-120°C and perform reduced pressure distillation for 1-3 hours to remove the solvent and low molecular weight molecules. Finally, cool the mixture to obtain the target product, the MT vinyl silicone resin.
[0004] Furthermore, in the step 1, 37.28 g of tetramethyldivinyldisiloxane, 192 g of methanol, 108 g of deionized water, and 0.4 g of trifluoromethanesulfonic acid were added to a 4-necked 1 L flask equipped with a thermometer, a mechanical stirrer, an isobaric dropping funnel, and a condenser.
[0005] Furthermore, in the step 1, while stirring the components, a mixture of 198.29 g of phenyltrimethoxysilane and 136.22 g of methyltrimethoxysilane was added dropwise over 5 hours.
[0006] Furthermore, in the step 2, 300 g of toluene was added to the reaction material for dilution, and then 300 g of deionized water was added, and then the reaction material was transferred to a separatory funnel, the aqueous phase was removed, and then 300 g of deionized water was added, and the reaction material was washed and purified by anion and cation exchange resin until the conductivity was <5 us / cm and the pH was 5-7.
[0007] Furthermore, in the step 3, 3 g of 25% KOH alcohol solution was added to the reaction material.
[0008] Furthermore, in the step 4, 0.8 g of glacial acetic acid is added to the polycondensation material, stirred for 1 hour, and then washed and purified with an anion and cation exchange resin.
[0009] Furthermore, in the step five, the condensation material is filtered using a sand core filter device.
[0010] The beneficial effects of the present invention compared with the prior art are: (1) the present invention has no gelation phenomenon in terms of gel control; (2) the wastewater generated by the present invention is much less than that of the traditional synthesis method.
