Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to compositions comprising 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene, which are of use in many fields of application such as refrigeration, blowing agents, solvents and aerosols.


SUMMARY

One very important parameter in the choice of a composition of use in the fields of refrigeration, air conditioning and heat pumps is its impact on the environment.


The manufacture of 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene (HFO-1234yf), being accompanied by a multitude of by-products having a boiling point close to HFO-1234yf, results in quite complex and expensive purification steps. The difficulty encountered during the purification of HFO-1234yf generally involves a consequent loss of desired product. Furthermore, these by-products may form binary or tertiary azeotropic compositions with HFO-1234yf, rendering the separation by simple distillation impossible.

Irrespective of the embodiment, the compound HFO-1234yf preferably represents at least 99% by weight in the composition and advantageously at least 99.5% by weight.


The composition according to the invention may be obtained from HCC-240db and by using one or more reaction steps.


Thus, HCC-240db may be subjected to a gas-phase reaction step with a fluorinating agent, preferably anhydrous HF, in order to directly give HFO-1234yf, optionally accompanied by intermediate products chosen from HCFO-1233xf, HCFC-243db and HCFO-1233zd. The fluorination reaction may be carried out in the presence of a catalyst and preferably at a temperature between 100° C. and 500° C., more preferably between 200° C. and 450° C. After separation of the HFO-1234yf, in particular by settling followed by distillation, the intermediate product(s) and where appropriate the unreacted HCC-240db may then be recycled to the reaction step.


The composition according to the invention may also be obtained from HCC-240db by means of at least two reaction steps. The first step generally consists in subjecting the HCC-240db to a gas-phase reaction with a fluorinating agent, preferably anhydrous HF, in order to give at least one intermediate product such as HCFO-1233xf. In a second step, the intermediate product reacts with a fluorinating agent, preferably anhydrous HF, in order to give a composition comprising HFO-1234yf and at least one additional compound as described above. At the end of the second step, the composition comprising the HFO-1234yf and at least one additional compound is subjected to a separation and/or purification step.


The two steps may be carried out in the presence of a catalyst, it being possible for the catalyst to be identical or different. These steps may be carried out in one and the same reactor when the reaction is carried out in the gas phase. In this case, the reactor may comprise an upper catalyst bed different from that of the lower bed.


When the preparation is carried out using two reactions steps, the reaction temperature of the first step is generally lower than that of the second step and is preferably between 100° C. and 500° C., more preferably between 200° C. and 450° C.


If necessary, after the aforementioned separation and/or purification step, the stream comprising HFO-1234yf may be subjected to a step of azeotropic distillation and/or of adsorption by activated carbon and/or molecular sieve or to a photochlorination step.


According to one embodiment of the invention, the composition is obtained by a series of reactions (FIG. 1). FIG. 1 illustrates a series of reactions for the production of HFO-1234yf. The series of reactions begins with a hydrofluorination reaction of HCC-240db with hydrogen fluoride to give HCFO-1233xf. The compound HCFO-1233xf may in turn undergo a hydrofluorination reaction to give HFO-1234yf. The compound HFO-1234yf may in turn undergo a hydrofluorination reaction to give HFC-245cb. Multitudes of products may be obtained by reactions parallel to this series of reactions for example by isomerization reactions, HCl addition reactions and chlorination reactions.


The reactions described above are preferably carried out in the presence of a supported or unsupported fluorination catalyst, preferably activated in the presence of hydrogen fluoride and/or air, comprising chromium oxides and optionally a co-catalyst based for example on nickel, zinc, titanium, magnesium and tin.


The hydrofluorination reaction(s) may be carried out in the gas phase, optionally in the presence of a sufficient amount of oxygen.


The production of HFO-1234yf may be carried out in one or more reactors in series. The supply of HCC-240db may be placed at the inlet of one of the reactors or at the inlet of the first reactor in series, or at each of the inlets of each of the reactors in series.


The hydrofluorination reaction(s) may be carried out continuously or semi-continuously.


The production of HFO-1234yf may be preferably carried out at an absolute pressure of between 0.1 and 50 bar, more preferably between 0.3 and 15 bar.


The contact time in the reactor is between 1 and 100 seconds, preferably between 5 and 50 seconds.


The molar ratio between the hydrogen fluoride and the organic compounds is between 4:1 and 100:1, preferably between 5:1 and 50:1.


The compositions described according to the invention may contain HF, HCl and inert gases (nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, etc.).


HF and HCl neutralization/elimination steps may also be carried out. The compositions described according to the invention may also contain no, or contain traces of, HF and/or HCl.


In the presence of a large excess of HF used in the reaction step(s), the manufacture of HFO-1234yf may comprise at least one distillation step in order to recover a portion of HF that can be recycled to the reaction step(s).


The compositions according to the invention are of use in many fields of application, especially as heat transfer fluid, propellants, foaming agents, blowing agents, gaseous dielectrics, monomer or polymerization medium, support fluids, agents for abrasives, drying agents and fluids for energy production units.
