The application discloses a preparation method of tert-butylated
triphenyl phosphate, which comprises the following steps: using tert-butyl
phenol,
phenol and
phosphorus oxychloride as raw materials, using a Lewis acid as a catalyst, putting the raw materials and the catalyst into a reactor at one time or in sections, and obtaining a crude tert-butylated
triphenyl phosphate after reaction; performing
vacuum distillation on the crude tert-butylated
triphenyl phosphate, stopping the
vacuum distillation when the
acid value of the crude tert-butylated triphenyl
phosphate is less than or equal to 3 mgKOH / g, and performing molecular
distillation treatment on the crude tert-butylated triphenyl
phosphate with the
acid value less than or equal to 3 mgKOH / g. The tert-butylated triphenyl
phosphate prepared by the method has low triphenyl phosphate content, high effective component content, simple preparation method, low production cost and is suitable for industrialized production. The tert-butylated triphenyl phosphate prepared by the method is suitable for the fields of
aviation oil and hydraulic oil
base oil,
plasticizer,
flame retardant, lubricating oil extreme pressure anti-wear agent and the like.
