Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of production and processing technology of diphenyl isodecyl phosphite, and particularly to a multi-stage distillation and filtration method and system for the production of diphenyl isodecyl phosphite. Background Technology

[0002] Diphenyl isodecyl phosphite is an important organophosphorus compound, mainly used as an auxiliary antioxidant and auxiliary stabilizer in polymer materials. During processing, it can effectively decompose hydrogen peroxide, capture free radicals, and produce a synergistic effect with the main antioxidant, thereby significantly inhibiting the thermo-oxidative aging and color deterioration of materials, and improving the service life and appearance quality of products.

[0003] In industrial production, diphenyl isodecanyl phosphite is mainly synthesized by transesterification. The crude product contains unreacted raw materials, reaction byproducts, catalyst residues, and colored impurities produced by high temperature or oxidation. In order to obtain high-purity, low-color products that meet the requirements of high-end applications, the crude product must be deeply purified. Due to the variety of impurities and their different physicochemical properties, a single separation method is difficult to achieve the desired effect. Therefore, a multi-stage purification route combining distillation and filtration is commonly used in industry.

[0004] However, the control of multi-stage purification processes mainly relies on the experience of operators or relatively independent unit control. Each distillation and filtration unit is often set with fixed operating parameters or adjusted only based on simple feedback from its own unit. There is a lack of collaborative optimization from the perspective of optimizing overall product quality and economic benefits. This makes it difficult for the production process to adapt quickly to feed fluctuations, and product quality is prone to batch-to-batch fluctuations. To address this, a multi-stage distillation and filtration method for the production of diphenyl isodecanyl phosphite is proposed. Summary of the Invention
