The invention provides hydrogenated
bisphenol A
epoxy resin and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the technical field of
epoxy resin preparation, the preparation method comprises the following steps: (1) dissolving hydrogenated
bisphenol A in a
solvent, heating, and carrying out
reflux dehydration; (2) mixing the hydrogenated
bisphenol A subjected to
reflux dehydration with a catalyst, and then adding
epoxy chloropropane for etherification ring-opening reaction to obtain chlorohydrin
ether; (3) adding an
alcohol auxiliary agent, then adding alkali, and carrying out closed-loop epoxidation reaction; (4) supplementing a
solvent and water, stirring, standing for layering, removing lower-layer
saline water, and taking an upper-layer
organic layer; and (5) post-
processing to obtain the hydrogenated
bisphenol A epoxy resin. According to the method disclosed by the invention, by adding the
alcohol auxiliary agent, the closed-loop epoxidation reaction can be thorough by adding alkali under normal pressure, the effect of the closed-loop epoxidation reaction can be remarkably improved, a
phase transfer catalyst does not need to be added in the reaction process, and decompression
reflux dehydration is also not needed, so that reaction equipment and operation are greatly simplified.
