The bisphenol A-bis(diphenyl phosphate) is an oligomeric non-halogen flame retardant, is a good plasticizer at the same time, and is mainly applied to thermoplastic engineering plastics such as epoxy resin and epoxy resin polymers for PC, ABS, PC/ABS and PPO/HIPS hard circuit boards, and has flame retardant performance greatly superior to that of traditional flame retardants such as alkyl phenyl phosphate. In recent years, new energy automobiles have been widely popularized, and the demand on bisphenol A-bis(diphenyl phosphate) has been remarkably increased, and the supply falls short of demand in the market.


At present, the preparation method of a bisphenol A-bis(diphenyl phosphate) flame retardant is mainly a method of Chinese patent CN101456879A (application No. 200710179279.4, entitled preparation method of flame retardant of bisphenol A-bis(diphenyl phosphate)). In the method, phosphorus oxychloride is used to react with bisphenol A, after the reaction, phosphorus oxychloride is obtained through reduced pressure distillation, and then, end-capping treatment is performed by phenol to obtain bisphenol A-bis(diphenyl phosphate).


For example, each of Chinese patent CN101348500A, Chinese patent CN1414968A, Chinese patent CN1367788A and the like discloses a production method of bisphenol A-bis(diphenyl phosphate).

Generally, the industrial method produced BDP obtained by this method generally contains about 1% to 3% of triphenyl phosphate (TPP) and about 1% of isopropylbenzene diphenyl ester, both the triphenyl phosphate and the isopropylbenzene diphenyl ester are harmful substances, the isopropyl has an instable phenomenon, due to the existence of the isopropenyl, the color becomes dark when the product is irradiated by light, due to the existence of TPP, mold product defects, pollution and mold corrosion may be caused, problems of volatilization, seepage and the like may easily occur after the TPP enters the materials, and the flame retardant performance and other physical performance of the product are influenced.


Most existing production methods of bisphenol A-bis(diphenyl phosphate) mainly use an intermittent synthesis reaction, the intermittent reaction has defects of long time period, need of a great number of workers, serious bubbling and drip leakage phenomenon in a chemical plant, poor operation environment of workers, and harm to human body health, sometimes, life danger may occur, the energy consumption is high, and additionally, the production yield is low. Additionally, due to the existence of air and water vapor in the surroundings, the influence on the reaction process and result of the intermittent process is very great, the prepared BDP product contains much TPP, the TPP has certain toxicity on aquatic creature, and the TPP content of the product is strictly controlled on the international market.
