The present disclosure relates to a hybrid dialkylphosphinate salt, a method for preparing same, and use thereof, and belongs to the field of preparation of flame retardant polymers.
Dialkylphosphinates, especially aluminum diethylphosphinate, have been widely used as halogen-free flame retardants for polymeric materials. Dialkylphosphinate flame retardant products have a low density and desirable mechanical properties with a relatively low loading of dialkylphosphinates. However, as flame retardants, the existing dialkylphosphinates have limited flame retardant efficiency. For example, poly(metal dialkylphosphinate)s can be used as a flame retardant for glass fiber-free nylons, but they have low flame retardant efficiency and exhibit a large adverse effect on the physical properties of flame retardant polymeric materials. There are also reports on the use of aluminum dipropylphosphinate as a flame retardant for nylons. Aluminum dipropylphosphinate has high flame retardant efficiency, but low thermal stability. It begins to degrade and volatilize substantially at 300° C., which is detrimental to engineering plastics such as nylon 66 that require high-temperature processing.
Moreover, when the dialkylphosphinate is used as a flame retardant, besides the flame retardant properties, the flame retardant is desired to have a large particle size and a large density to reduce filtration time and dust during its preparation and use. Also when mixed with polymers, there will be no significant difference in free-flow velocity in a charging drum which can be caused by a large difference in density leading to a poor distribution of the flame retardant in flame retardant materials.
Therefore, obtaining flame retardants with desirable flame retardancy, high thermal stability and excellent processability is a big challenge for the industry. Now, surprisingly, a hybrid dialkylphosphinate salt with specific composition satisfies the above requirements well.
In order to solve the above technical problems, the present disclosure provides a hybrid dialkylphosphinate salt, a method for preparation for preparing same, and use thereof. The hybrid dialkylphosphinate salt has composition of Formula (I). The hybrid dialkylphosphinate salt features a low required loading level, high flame-retardant efficiency in various polymers, good thermal stability, a large particle size and low dust, and can satisfy processing requirements of engineering plastics requiring high temperature.
According to a first aspect of the present disclosure, a hybrid dialkylphosphinate salt is provided. The hybrid dialkylphosphinate salt is selected from at least one of the compounds represented by Formula (I):
Specifically, the propyl in the ethylpropylphosphinate ions and the dipropylphosphinate ions is n-propyl or isopropyl.
In the examples of the present disclosure, in Formula (I), if x is greater than 0.80, the flame retardant properties are poor. If z is greater than 0.95, particles are small when prepared, filtration is slow, dust is high when used, and thermal stability is reduced, which are unfavorable to preparation and physical properties of flame retardant polymeric materials. If y is greater than 0.7, a preparation cost is high, and the economy is poor, which are unfavorable to preparation and physical properties of flame retardant polymeric materials.
Optionally, a lower limit of x is independently selected from 0, 0.03, 0.05, 0.10, and 0.15. An upper limit is independently selected from 0.80, 0.75, 0.70, 0.65, 0.55, 0.50, 0.45, 0.40, 0.35, and 0.30.
Optionally, a lower limit of y is independently selected from 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20, 0.25, 0.30, 0.35, and 0.40. An upper limit is independently selected from 0.70, 0.65, 0.60, 0.55, 0.50, and 0.45.
Optionally, a lower limit of z is independently selected from 0, 0.001, 0.005, 0.01, 0.02, 0.05 and 0.08. An upper limit is independently selected from 0.95, 0.9, 0.85, 0.80, 0.75, 0.7, 0.65, 0.60, 0.55, 0.50, 0.45, 0.40, 0.35, 0.3, 0.25, 0.2, 0.15, and 0.10.
Optionally, the group IIA metal element is selected from at least one of Be, Mg, Ca, Sr and Ba;
Optionally, the metal element is selected from at least one of Al, Zn, Ca and Fe.
Optionally, the metal element is Al, and n=3.
Optionally, 0≤x≤0.80; 0.05≤y≤0.70; and 0.005≤z≤0.92.
Optionally, 0≤x≤0.66; 0.30≤y≤0.70; and 0.01≤z≤0.60.
Optionally, 0≤x≤0.30; 0.35≤y≤0.70; and 0.05≤z≤0.60.
In the examples of the present disclosure, the greater a value of z is, the lower thermal stability the hybrid dialkylphosphinic acid salt has.
The hybrid dialkylphosphinate salt in the present disclosure is not a simple physical mixture of different dialkylphosphinates, for example, is not a simple mixture of aluminum diethylphosphinate and aluminum ethylpropylphosphinate, but a hybrid salt including at least two of a diethylphosphinate ion, an ethylpropylphosphinate ion and a dipropylphosphinate ion paired with a same aluminum atom. One ligand in the hybrid salt is the ethylpropylphosphinate ion. An X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern of the hybrid dialkylphosphinate salt is quite different from those of physical mixtures of simple dialkylphosphinates. The hybrid dialkylphosphinate salt of Formula (I) shows a single peak in a strongest absorption peak region in an XRD spectrum. Moreover, an interplanar spacing displayed by a maximum peak is different from those of the aluminum diethylphosphinate and the aluminum dipropylphosphinate. An interplanar spacing displayed by a maximum peak of the aluminum diethylphosphinate is d=9.663, and an interplanar spacing displayed by a maximum peak of the aluminum dipropylphosphinate is d=11.079. A d value of an interplanar spacing of the hybrid dialkylphosphinate salt of Formula (I) lies between the above two values. However, a physical mixture obtained by simple mixing of aluminum diethylphosphinate and aluminum dipropylphosphinate shows two completely independent peaks in its XRD spectrum, and d values of the two peaks are close to d values of the aluminum diethylphosphinate and the aluminum dipropylphosphinate respectively.
In the examples of the present disclosure, two independent peaks also appear in a strongest absorption peak region in an XRD spectrum of the hybrid dialkylphosphinate salt of Formula (I) and the aluminum diethylphosphinate or the aluminum dipropylphosphinate after simple physical mixing. These results strongly indicate that the hybrid dialkylphosphinate salt of Formula (I) obtained according to the present disclosure is not a simple mixture of aluminum diethylphosphinate, aluminum ethylpropylphosphinate and aluminum dipropylphosphinate, but contains a structure in which at least two of diethylphosphinate, ethylpropylphosphinate and dipropylphosphinate are coordinated with a same aluminum atom.
In the examples of the present disclosure, pure aluminum dipropylphosphinate has a desirable flame-retardant effect but low thermal stability at the same loading level, which cannot satisfy requirements of polymeric materials for high temperature processing. Pure aluminum dipropylphosphinate has high dust, and is difficult to handle. Since the particle size of the pure aluminum dipropylphosphinate is small, when mixed with polymers, the pure aluminum dipropylphosphinate is prone to be separated from the latter leading to poor mixing uniformity. In contrast, the hybrid dialkylphosphinate salt of Formula (I) has high thermal stability, large particle sizes, no dust, and similar flow velocity with polymer particles in a charging barrel, ensuring desirable mixing uniformity.
In the examples of the present disclosure, under the same loading level, a flame-retardant effect of the pure diethylphosphinate is poor and is far inferior to that of a hybrid dialkylphosphinate salt of Formula (I).
According to a second aspect of the present disclosure, a method for preparing the hybrid dialkylphosphinate salt is provided. The method includes:
Optionally, the metal element is Al. A pH of the reaction I is 0-4, preferably 1-3.5, and more preferably 2.3-3.3.
Specifically, if the pH of the reaction I is too low, it is difficult to obtain precipitates. If the pH is too high, hydroxide of metal ions is formed, and impurities are introduced.
Optionally, a molar ratio of the diethylphosphinic acid and/or an alkali metal salt of the diethylphosphinic acid to ethylpropylphosphinic acid and/or an alkali metal salts of the ethylpropylphosphinic acid to dipropylphosphinic acid and/or an alkali metal salt of the dipropylphosphinic acid to the metal element M source is approximately x:y:z:q. The propyl is selected from n-propyl and isopropyl, herein q=1/n.
Solubility of the hybrid salt in water varies with M. For a hybrid salt with high solubility, values of x, y, z of the diethylphosphinic acid and/or the alkali metal salt of the diethylphosphinic acid, the ethylpropylphosphinic acid and/or the alkali metal salt of the ethylpropylphosphinic acid, the dipropylphosphinic acid and/or the alkali metal salt of the dipropylphosphinic acid in a solution can differ from those in the hybrid salt, thus, the molar ratio to the M source can also change. Moreover, in order to obtain more M-containing precipitates, the molar ratio of reactants x, y, z to the M can also be greater than a theoretical calculation value.
In practice, actual values of x, y, z and q can be determined by phosphorus nuclear magnetic resonance.
Optionally, the molar ratio of the diethylphosphinic acid and/or the alkali metal salt of the diethylphosphinic acid to the ethylpropylphosphinic acid and/or the alkali metal salt of the ethylpropylphosphinic acid to the dipropylphosphinic acid and/or the alkali metal salt of the dipropylphosphinic acid in the mixture A is the same or substantially the same as the ratio of x to y to z in Formula (I).
Optionally, the reaction I is carried out at conditions of temperature of 0° C.-250° C., pressure of 0.1 MPa-10 MPa, and time of 0.1 h-20 h.

Optionally, a molar ratio of the phosphinic acid and/or the alkali metal salt of the phosphinic acid to the ethylene to the propylene is 1:0.05-1.8:0.2-1.95.
In an actual reaction, the consumption amount of olefin is higher than a theoretical ratio due to existence of some side reactions, such as long-chain dialkylphosphinate obtained by ethylene and/or propylene polymerization.
Optionally, the molar ratio of the phosphinic acid and/or the alkali metal salt of the phosphinic acid to the ethylene to the propylene is the same as or close to the values of x, y and z in Formula (I). In the reaction of the phosphinic acid or the alkali metal salt of the phosphinic acid with the ethylene or the propylene, since the value of y has a maximum value less than 1, after the maximum value is reached, x or z increases, such that y cannot reach 1. If y=1 is to be prepared, a reaction intermediate product needs to be isolated and purified to remove the diethylphosphinic acid and/or the dipropylphosphinic acid or their salts, which is not economic.
Specifically, in the reaction II, an order of addition of the ethylene and the propylene may be reversed. The ethylene and the propylene may be added simultaneously, or partially added first.
Optionally, in the reaction II, the phosphinic acid and/or the alkali metal salt of the phosphinic acid reacts with the propylene to obtain corresponding values of y and z before reacting substantially completely or completely with the ethylene. Substantially completely means that a total phosphorus content of ethylphosphinate, propylphosphinate and hypophosphite in a reaction mixture is less than 5 mol % of a total phosphorus content in the reaction mixture.
Optionally, mass of water in the aqueous solution is 10%-99% of total mass of the aqueous solution.
Specifically, in the aqueous solution, if the amount of water is too little, a salting-out effect results in low solubility of olefin in the water, and a reaction slows down. If the amount of water is too much, a utilization rate of a reaction kettle decreases.
Optionally, mass of water in the aqueous solution is 20%-95% of total mass of the aqueous solution.
Optionally, mass of water in the aqueous solution is 45%-92% of total mass of the aqueous solution.

Specifically, if the temperature of the reaction II is too low, a reaction slows down. If the temperature is too high, the hypophosphite is prone to decomposition.
Optionally, the temperature of the reaction II is 10° C.-200° C.
Specifically, when the pressure of the reaction II is greater than 3 MPa, requirements for a reaction apparatus are increased, and an operation is difficult.
Optionally, the pressure of the reaction II is 0.2 MPa-1.5 MPa.

Then the remaining ethylene is added, and the reaction is continued until the end in the presence of the initiator.

Optionally, the semi-aromatic polyamide may be prepared from any one or more kinds of aromatic dicarboxylic acid and any one or more kinds of aliphatic diamine, or from any one or more kinds of aromatic diamine and any one or more kinds of aliphatic dicarboxylic acid. One or more kinds of dicarboxylic acid, diamine, lactam and amino acid can be optionally added to the system, to prepare polyamide copolymers with corresponding properties. The added dicarboxylic acid is aromatic dicarboxylic acid and/or aliphatic dicarboxylic acid. The added diamine is aromatic diamine and/or aliphatic diamine. The added lactam may be aliphatic lactam or aromatic lactam. The added amino acid may be aromatic amino acid or aliphatic amino acid.

The aliphatic diamine is optionally selected from one or more of butylene diamine, hexane diamine, octane diamine, decane diamine and 2-methylpentylene diamine.

In the examples of the present disclosure, the values of x, y and z in Formula (I) do not consider the amount of other phosphorus impurities, x+y+z=1, and x+z>0. A flame retardant having composition of Formula (I) may include trace amounts of other phosphorus ions. Due to impurities in raw materials or impurities generated by a synthesis process, trace amounts of phosphate ions, phosphite ions, mono-alkylphosphinate ions, and alkylphosphinate ions may exist in the flame retardant. Oligomer products, such as ethyl-n-butylphosphinate ions, ethylhexylphosphinate ions, butylbutylphosphinate ions, butylhexylphosphinate ions and propylhexylphosphinate ions, derived from ethylene or propylene polymerization may also exist as impurities in the flame retardant of Formula (I). However, as long as the total amount of these other phosphorus-containing ions does not exceed 5% mol of the total phosphorus, they do not influence the normal operation of the flame retardant with composition of Formula (I).
In the examples of the disclosure, a ratio of x to y to z in Formula (I) may be determined by 31P-nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) after alkaline or acid hydrolysis of the flame retardant. Diethylphosphinate, ethyl-n-propylphosphinate, ethylisopropylphosphinate, di-n-propylphosphinate and n-propylisopropylphosphinate have different chemical shifts of 31P and present five independent peaks in a 31P-NMR spectra. Peak areas of the five peaks correspond to molar concentrations of five dialkylphosphinate ions respectively. In some cases, long-chain dialkylphosphinate ions are present in small amounts and have chemical shifts close to the corresponding dialkylphosphinate ions, such that the long-chain dialkylphosphinate ions are incorporated into the corresponding dialkylphosphinate ions when integrated. Accordingly, the values of x, y and z can be conveniently calculated by means of the ratio of peak areas. For example, a molar concentration of diethylphosphinate corresponds to x, a sum of molar concentrations of ethyl-n-propylphosphinate and ethylisopropylphosphinate (abbreviated as a molar concentration of ethylpropylphosphinate) corresponds to y, a sum of a molar concentrations of di-n-propylphosphinate and n-propylisopropylphosphinate (abbreviated as a molar concentration of dipropylphosphinate) corresponds to z, and the ratio of the three is the value of x, y and z.
The present disclosure can have the following beneficial effects.
(1) The hybrid dialkylphosphinate salt of Formula (I) provided in the present disclosure has a low required loading level, easy filtration due to its large particle sizes, less dust, high thermal stability, high flame-retardant efficiency for polymers and desirable economy.

The hybrid dialkylphosphinate salt of Formula (I) can be widely applied to flame retard polymers which require high-temperature processing.
(2) The present disclosure provides a method for preparing a hybrid dialkylphosphinate salt, which avoids a shortcoming that different dialkylphosphinic acids need to be independently prepared separately.

In the present disclosure, R, R1 and R2 are all selected from any one of n-propyl and isopropyl, and two different propyl groups may fall into a same unit structure represented by y or z. That is to say, in the same unit structure represented by y, R can be n-propyl and isopropyl, but R group cannot be defined specifically in detail in specific examples sine it can vary.

For example, a subscript of a double-mixed structural formula corresponds to y, which includes double-mixed 1 (R=isopropyl) and double-mixed 2 (R=n-propyl).
100 g of sodium hypophosphite monohydrate was dissolved in 500 g of water, and was put into a 1 L stainless steel pressure reaction kettle. The reaction kettle was purged by nitrogen twice, vacuumized, and subsequently filled with propylene until pressure no longer rose.

Test results of Comparative examples 3-14 are shown in Table 17.
Examples 15-51 illustrate that a flame retardant including the hybrid dialkylphosphinate salt of the present disclosure has outstanding flame retardant efficiency for polyamide. No obvious dust was observed during preparation of flame retardant polyamide. The flame retardant PA66 samples prepared have desirable toughness and no obvious degradation. The comparative examples show that under the same conditions, the particle sizes of the obtained aluminum dipropylphosphinate and aluminum diethylphosphinate are smaller than those of the hybrid salts, and the large particle sizes of the hybrid salts are unexpected. Comparative examples 3-6 show that the dipropylphosphinate has certain flame retardancy, but its flame retardant efficiency for polyamide is not as good as that of the hybrid salts of Formula (I) according to the present disclosure, which is seen in Examples 17, 21, 22, 27, 30, 31, 34, 35, 40, 44 and 47. Moreover, when flame retardant polyamide is prepared, it is observed that dipropylphosphinate has much dust, resulting in poor operating environment. Furthermore, it can be seen from
