The invention pertains to the technical field of bio-based blockage inhibitors, and particularly relates to a compound useful as a vegetable oil based blockage inhibitor and a preparation method thereof, a vegetable oil based blockage inhibitor and a preparation method and a use thereof, as well as a low sulfur diesel blockage inhibitor containing the vegetable oil based blockage inhibitor and a low sulfur diesel using the blockage inhibitor.
The consumption of diesel fuel has been increasing year by year along with the widespread use of diesel engines. However, the large consumption of diesel fuel inevitably leads to further increase of harmful substances discharged from vehicles. Since the emission of harmful substances have imposed serious impacts on the ecological environment, human health and economic development, the governments in various countries have successively enacted strict emission regulations, limiting the hazardous waste emissions of diesel vehicles. According to the implemented national-V standard in China with respect to emission of diesel, the content limit value of sulfur in diesel will be reduced to below 10 ppm, the requirements of desulfurized diesel have been implemented in the domestic refineries. At present, the sulfur reduction technologies such as hydrotreating and hydrocracking are adopted in China, such that the sulfur content of fuel oil is greatly reduced, however, the content of polar compounds in diesel is excessively low, thus the lubricity of diesel is significantly reduced, the abrasion and damage phenomena of a large number of diesel pumps occur, the blockage problem of filter screen and nozzle of an engine frequently appears, thereby shortening the service life of the diesel pumps.
In order to solve the problem of abrasion and damage to the diesel pumps, the antiwear agents are generally added into diesel fuel. The currently available antiwear agents on the market mainly comprise unsaturated fatty acids, unsaturated fatty acid esters and amide derivatives thereof, wherein the acid type antiwear agents dominate about 70% of the market, the ester type antiwear agents and the amide type antiwear agents account for about 30% of the market.
The lubricity problem of diesel can be desirably solved by adding vegetable oleic acid into low sulfur diesel. However, the vegetable oleic acid mostly contains a certain amount of saturated fatty acid with a high condensation point; because the boiling point of the saturated fatty acid is close to that of the vegetable oleic acid, it is difficult to complete separate the saturated fatty acid from the vegetable oleic acid by using the existing separation means, such as a freezing squeezing method and/or a distillation refining method, so that the condensation point of the vegetable oleic acid on the market is generally higher than −8° C., and the use standard of the acid type blockage inhibitor with the condensation point not higher than −12° C. specified in the enterprise standard Q/SHCG 57-2014 “lubricity Additive for Diesel Fuels” specified by the Sinopec Group cannot be achieved.
Moreover, the antiwear agent cannot desirably solve the problem that the oil supply is insufficient due to the blockage of filter screen and nozzle of an engine, so that an oil atomizer is abraded and the engine fails, the service life of a diesel pump is shortened. Therefore, it is required to further research and develop a blockage inhibitor product suitable for low sulfur diesel.

The conversion rate of the palm oil fatty acid was less than 6.4%, and the conversion rate of said blockage inhibitor was too low, so that the economic benefit was not generated.
The preparation process and operating conditions in Comparative Example 2 were the same as those in Example 1, except that the vegetable oil and the unsaturated dialdehyde were directly used for reaction, but the product cannot be synthesized because the reaction was not performed.

The tests were carried out by using the low sulfur diesel (low sulfur diesel-1) having a sulfur content less than 10 ppm and the hydrorefined diesel (low sulfur diesel-2) having a wear scar diameter more than 580 μm, their specific properties were shown in Table 2. The blockage inhibitors prepared in the Examples and Comparative Examples were respectively added into the aforementioned low sulfur diesel to perform product performance tests, and the test results were shown in Table 3 and Table 4.
As can be seen from Table 3 and Table 4, the lubricating effect of the low sulfur diesel was not desirable when the vegetable oil was directly adopted or the product of step (1) was adopted, the lubricity of the low sulfur diesel did not meet the diesel lubricity requirement of the national-V standard in China, and the modifying agent was precipitated at the temperature of −20° C. or −30° C. The vegetable oil fatty acid modified by the invention had obviously improved lubricity of the low sulfur diesel; when the added amount was 80 ppm or 100 ppm, the blended low sulfur diesel can meet the diesel lubricity requirement of national-V standard (the wear scar diameter was not more than 460 m), and there was not precipitation of said modifying agent at the temperature of −20° C. or −30° C.

As can be seen from Table 5, the content of total pollutants in the diesel without adding the blockage inhibitor increased along with an extension of the standing time; the added product obviously improved the antibacterial property of the low sulfur diesel; when the addition amount was 80 ppm, the total pollutant content was basically kept unchanged after the blended low sulfur diesel was standing still for 6 months.
