The invention provides a flexible switching production method and equipment for low cis-
polybutadiene rubber (LCBR), solution polymerized
styrene-butadiene rubber (SSBR) and hydroxyl-terminated liquid
polybutadiene rubber (HTPB), the flexible switching production equipment comprises an initiator production device and a
polymerization unit, and the flexible switching production method comprises the following steps: mixing
cyclohexane and n-
hexane according to a volume ratio of 6.5: 3.5-7: 3, adding an initiator, and stirring to obtain a mixture; forming a mixed
solvent; the method comprises the following steps: adding a
monomer, an
active agent, an initiator and a mixed
solvent into a
polymerization kettle 31 of a
polymerization unit, and carrying out polymerization reaction to obtain a low-cis-
polybutadiene, solution polymerized
styrene-butadiene or hydroxyl-terminated liquid polybutadiene rubber solution; a novel protection initiator tert-butyl dimethyl siloxy propyl
sodium is designed, and hydroxyl-terminated liquid polybutadiene rubber with a controllable structure is prepared through anionic
living polymerization. According to the process, shutdown for kettle cleaning is not needed, the low cis-polybutadiene, the solution polymerized
styrene-butadiene and the hydroxyl-terminated liquid polybutadiene rubber can be produced on the same polymerization device in a flexible switching manner, and the overall production efficiency is improved.
