Background and overview[1]
Triethylene glycol diisooctanoate has excellent low temperature properties, oil resistance, antistatic properties, etc., and has certain lubricity and other characteristics. In addition, triethylene glycol diisooctanoate has similar polarity to resin and has good compatibility. It is a solvent-based plasticizer with good performance. Currently, triethylene glycol diisooctanoate is widely used in the preparation of polyvinyl butyral (PVB) safety films, synthetic rubber, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), sealing materials, etc., and has great application value. Due to the steric hindrance of branched-chain fatty acids, it is difficult to complete the reaction. Therefore, it is very necessary to develop a synthesis process of triethylene glycol diisooctanoate suitable for industrial production. The synthesis of triethylene glycol diisooctanoate is generally synthesized in organic solvents, which does not meet the technical requirements of green chemistry and can easily cause environmental pollution. In addition, metal oxides, sulfuric acid, etc. are generally used as catalysts. In the production of reagents, there are disadvantages such as relatively expensive reagents, high corrosiveness, high safety hazards, and low yields, which are not conducive to industrial production. It can be seen that the existing synthesis routes are not easy for industrial production. There is an urgent need to seek a preparation method for triethylene glycol diisooctanoate that is easy to operate and has mild reaction conditions.
Preparation[1-2]
Method 1:
First, use a vacuum pump to pump a certain proportion of triethylene glycol, isooctanoic acid, catalyst and cocatalyst into the esterification kettle; use steam to heat the materials. After reflux occurs, slow down the heating rate to keep the reflux relatively stable. After the reaction is completed, the reaction liquid is transferred to the cooling coarse filter kettle, and after cooling, the filter residue is filtered out through plate and frame pressure filtration; the filtrate is collected in the crude oil tank and then enters the light component removal kettle. Use steam to heat up the light component removal kettle, and evaporate the excess isooctanoic acid in the filtrate to obtain crude triethylene glycol diisooctanoate. The crude triethylene glycol diisooctanoate is subjected to cooling water washing, dehydration, distillation and filtration through a cooling water washing kettle, a dehydration kettle, a cooling rectification kettle, and an essential oil plate and frame oil filter to obtain a colorless and transparent oily triethylene glycol diisooctanoate. Caprylic acid ester finished product.
Method 2: A method of synthesizing triethylene glycol diisooctanoate, the preparation steps include.
(1) Preparation of solid superacid catalyst. Take the TiCl4 aqueous solution and hydrolyze it with dilute ammonia water to make it alkaline (PH=9-11). Let it stand for 24 hours, then filter and wash it to obtain a large amount of white precipitate. The solid is dried at 110-130℃ and ground into powder. Then add it to a 0.5M concentrated sulfuric acid solution of cerium sulfate, react for 8-14 hours, filter and dry, and place it in a muffle furnace for roasting to obtain the super acid catalyst SO42-/TiO2/Ce.
(2) Synthesis of triethylene glycol diisooctanoate. Add triethylene glycol and isooctanoic acid into the reaction vessel, and then add the catalyst prepared in the above steps into the reaction vessel. The reaction temperature is 100-200°C, and the reaction is carried out for 5-15 hours. When the reaction is completed, heating is stopped to obtain a crude product. The material mass ratio of triethylene glycol and isooctanoic acid is 1:2~1:4, preferably 1:2.5. The mass ratio of triethylene glycol to catalyst SO42-/TiO2/Ce is 1:0.1~1:0.5, preferably 1:0.2.
(3) Post-processing of products. The reaction solution is filtered, and the filtered catalyst is washed, dried and recycled. The filtrate was washed 4 times with 5% NaOH solution. The organic phase was washed with water, washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and distilled under reduced pressure to obtain a light yellow oily liquid.
