Abstract
Description
The present invention belongs to the field of chemical synthesis, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a vegetable oil polyol and an application of the vegetable oil polyol in a polyurethane anti-corrosive coating. BACKGROUND Polyurethane is a polymer with repeating structural units of carbamate chain segment, which is prepared by a reaction of a polyol and isocyanate. Polyurethane products are divided into foaming products and non-foaming products. The foaming products comprise soft, hard and semi-hard polyurethane foam plastics; and the non-foaming products comprise coatings, adhesives, synthetic leather, elastomers, elastic fibers, and the like. The isocyanate, one of two monomers in synthesis of the polyurethane has relatively few product types, mainly comprising MDI, TDI, and the like; and the polyol, the other monomer, has wide varieties, different qualities and diversified downstream applications, thus having a room for further research. Long-chain groups in a vegetable oil structure replace repeating units of traditional petrochemical polyol polyether or polyester, and a basic mother nucleus of triglyceride in the structure has a star-shaped spatial conformation, which gives downstream polyurethane more functional properties and application space. However, a vegetable oil polyol often has performance defects, the main reason is an uncontrollable reaction process, and many epoxy groups and ester groups often participate in multiple side reaction processes in a functional group transformation process, leading to a difficulty in constructing a designed molecular structure by a traditional chemical method, which greatly limits the quality of polyol, and often requires mixed use with the traditional petrochemical polyol to achieve a certain application effect. According to analysis of reaction mechanism, the main reason is that oil ester is often poorly miscible with a reaction reagent, but the reaction activity is low, leading to a long-term high-intensity reaction. However, due to an influence of multiple functional groups in the structure, it is difficult to balance a reaction selectivity and a transformation rate, and the process is poorly controlled, resulting in poor molecular uniformity, high viscosity, and a great difference between a macro indicator and a micro indicator of a single molecule. Therefore, even though the price of vegetable oil is often lower than that of a monomer of petrochemical repeating unit, it is difficult to obtain a vegetable oil polyol product with advantages in cost and quality, and it is necessary to control the product quality through chemical process control. SUMMARY The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a preparation method of a vegetable oil polyol by a micro-channel reaction device aiming at the defects in the prior art, so as to avoid a cross-linking side reaction caused by non-selective ring opening of secondary hydroxyl groups and other epoxy groups generated in a ring-opening reaction. In order to solve the above technical problem, the present invention discloses a preparation method of a vegetable oil polyol, wherein the preparation method comprises the following steps of: mixing epoxy vegetable oil and an acid catalyst into a first mixed solution; dissolving a 2,3-dihydroxy succinic acid diester compound in an organic solvent to obtain a second mixed solution; respectively pumping the first mixed solution and the second mixed solution into a first micro-reactor of a micro-channel reaction device at the same time for a first ring-opening reaction to obtain a first reaction solution; and pumping a third mixed solution obtained by dissolving long-chain hydroxy fatty acid ester in the organic solvent and the first reaction solution into a second micro-reactor of the micro-channel reaction device at the same time for a continuous second ring-opening reaction, and collecting a reaction solution obtained.

Specifically, a mass percentage of the acid catalyst and the epoxy vegetable oil is 0.02 to 0.1%: 1. Specifically, in the second mixed solution, a mass-volume ratio of the 2,3-dihydroxy succinic acid diester compound to the organic solvent is 1: 0.5 to 2. Specifically, in the third mixed solution, a mass-volume ratio of the long-chain hydroxyl fatty acid ester to the organic solvent is 1: 1 to 4. Specifically, a reaction molar ratio of epoxy groups in the epoxy vegetable oil to the 2,3-dihydroxy succinic acid diester compound is 1: 0.7 to 0.8. Specifically, a reaction molar ratio of epoxy groups in the epoxy vegetable oil to the long-chain hydroxyl fatty acid ester is 1: 0.1 to 0.2. Specifically, the micro-channel reaction device adopted in the present invention comprises a first feed pump, a second feed pump, a third feed pump, a micro-reaction pipeline, a first micro-mixer, a second micro-mixer, a first micro-reactor, a second micro-reactor and a receiver; the first feed pump and the second feed pump are connected to the first micro-mixer; the first reaction solution and the third feed pump are connected to the second micro-mixer; and the micro-mixer, the micro-reactor and the receiver are all connected in series through a pipeline in sequence. The micro-mixer is a conventional Y-shaped mixer or T-shaped mixer; and a model of the micro-reactor is Vapotech, and a micro-structure heat exchanger (coaxial heat exchanger) is adopted. Specifically, volumes of the first micro-reactor and the second micro-reactor are both 5 mL to 20 mL. Preferably, in the present invention, the first ring-opening reaction is carried out at a reaction temperature of 80°C to 110°C and lasts for 3 minutes to 15 minutes; and the second ring-opening reaction is carried out at a reaction temperature of 80°C to 110°C and lasts for 3 minutes to 15 minutes. A reaction outflow of the micro-reactor is subjected to liquid separation, and an organic phase is neutralized with acid, subjected to liquid separation, dried, and subjected to rotary evaporation to obtain the vegetable oil polyol.
