The present disclosure relates to the field of epoxide synthesis, and particularly to a safe, environmentally friendly and controllable method for preparing cycloaliphatic diepoxides.
Epoxy resin and cured products thereof have been widely used in aerospace, microelectronics packaging, motor insulation and other important industrial fields due to their excellent machinability, thermal stability, electrical insulation and UV radiation resistance, etc. With the increasing performance and functional requirements of polymer materials in modern industry, the researches on the synthesis and performance of epoxy resins have been very active in recent years.
Epoxy resins are generally liquid with a low viscosity at room temperature before curing, they can often be used directly for construction operations of coatings and electronic packaging materials without solvent dilution, which is convenient for potting, pouring or vacuum injection. They have been widely used in the fields of VLSI packaging, printed circuit board manufacturing, special light-curing coatings, and high-capacity and high-temperature-resistant motor insulation materials for vacuum pressure impregnation technology due to excellent comprehensive properties in recent years.
Since methods for preparing epoxy resins in prior art mostly use traditional catalysts, such catalysts usually contain heavy metal ions (such as tungsten W), so the product also contains a certain amount of heavy metal ion residues; due to the influence of heavy metal ion-containing catalysts, the final product also has heavy metal ion residues, which also affects the curing speed (i.e. gel time) of the product, thereby affecting the cross-linking in the molecule during curing, prolonging the gel time of the product, and affecting the production efficiency and product quality.

Compared with the prior art, the present disclosure has the following beneficial effects:
The reaction system of the present disclosure is simple, environmentally friendly, safe and controllable, and the production cost is low, which can meet the technical and economic requirements. The obtained cycloaliphatic diepoxides have high purity, high yield, low solvent content, low chroma and low halogen content, which are suitable for large-scale industrial production.
The present disclosure is hereunder illustrated with specific embodiments, but is not limited to the specific examples given below.
The first aspect of the present disclosure provides a method for preparing cycloaliphatic diepoxides comprising the steps of: mixing a diene compound, a carboxylic acid, an alkaline salt, and a solvent, and cooling; dropwise adding a hydrogen peroxide solution thereto over 1-12 h; standing for layering to obtain an underlayer of an organic phase 1, washing the organic phase 1 with a washing liquid, and standing for layering to obtain an underlayer of an organic phase 2; and purifying the organic phase 2.
In one embodiment, the method for preparing cycloaliphatic diepoxides at least comprises the steps of:
(1) mixing a diene compound, a carboxylic acid, an alkaline salt, and a solvent, and cooling;
(2) dropwise adding a hydrogen peroxide solution thereto over 1-12 h;
(3) standing for layering to obtain an underlayer of an organic phase 1, washing the organic phase 1 with a washing liquid, and standing for layering to obtain an underlayer of an organic phase 2; and
(4) purifying the organic phase 2.
Step (1),
In one embodiment, a cooling temperature is 5-20° C., preferably 10-15° C., and more preferably 13° C.
If the temperature is too low, an initial reaction rate is slow, which is likely to generate the acid accumulation to cause difficulties in controlling the temperature in later stage; if the temperature is too high, it is easy to cause the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide, resulting in an incomplete reaction. The reaction temperature is easy to control and the side reactions are few by cooling the temperature to the above range and dropwise adding hydrogen peroxide; the reaction can be carried out smoothly and gently in a low temperature due to the strong oxidizing property of hydrogen peroxide and exothermic reaction, which can prevent excessive heat release and rapid temperature rise in the early stage of the reaction to cause out of control and production safety risks.
In one embodiment, the diene compound is one or more selected from a group consisting of
and there is no restriction on the manufacturer of the diene compound.
In one embodiment, the molar ratio of the carboxylic acid to the diene compound is (1-3.5): 1.
The carboxylic acid is preferably an organic acid or an acid anhydride; the number of carbon atoms of the organic acid or acid anhydride is preferably 3-7; the organic acid is preferably one or more selected from a group consisting of propionic acid, butyric acid, valeric acid, and isovaleric acid, and the acid anhydride is preferably one or more selected from a group consisting of acetic anhydride, propionic anhydride, succinic anhydride, and maleic anhydride.
The carboxylic acid is preferably an acid anhydride, more preferably acetic anhydride, a purity of the acetic anhydride is preferably 98-100 wt %, and there is no restriction on the manufacturer of the acetic anhydride.
Examples of the alkaline salt include sodium carbonate, sodium hydroxide, potassium carbonate, potassium hydroxide, and sodium acetate; the alkaline salt is preferably sodium acetate, and there is no restriction on the manufacturer of the sodium acetate.
In the present disclosure, the pH value of the reaction system is regulated by the acidic substances produced in the neutralization reaction of the alkaline salt, which can avoid the out of control of the temperature caused by the acid enrichment in the system, avoid the decomposition of the obtained epoxide, and promote the progress of the oxidation reaction.
In one embodiment, the solvent is at least one of an aromatic solvent, a chlorinated solvent, and an ester solvent.
Examples of the aromatic solvent include benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylene, trimethylbenzene etc., examples of the chlorinated solvent include chloroform, dichloroethane, chlorobenzene, 1,3-dichloropropane, 1,2-dichloroethane, etc.; examples of the ester solvent include ethyl acetate, propyl acetate, butyl acetate, ethyl propionate, dimethyl carbonate, diethyl carbonate, etc.
In one embodiment, examples of the solvent include methyl isobutyl ketone, methanol, ethanol, tert-butanol, etc.
The solvent is preferably chloroform, and there is no restriction on the manufacturer of the chloroform.
In one embodiment, the weight ratio of the diene compound to the solvent is 1:(2-4.5), and preferably 1:3.
Step (2),
In one embodiment, the process of step (2) is as follows: dropwise adding the hydrogen peroxide solution over 1-12 h, and then continuing the reaction for another 3-8 h.
The time for dropwise adding the hydrogen peroxide solution is preferably 3-6 h, and more preferably 4.5 h.
The reaction is preferably continued for another 3-5 h, and more preferably 4 h.
In one embodiment, the temperature of the system in step (2) is 20-40° C., and preferably 30° C.
In one embodiment, the pH value of the system in step (2) is 3.0-4.5, and preferably 3.7.
During the preparation process, the applicant accidentally found that the reaction efficiency can be effectively improved by slowly adding hydrogen peroxide dropwise within 1-8 h and continuing the reaction at 20-40° C. after the completion of dropwise addition, i.e. in a short reaction time, the obtained epoxy resin has high yield, high purity, and the color is colorless and transparent, which may be attributed to the fact that the reaction can be carried out safely, smoothly and efficiently by controlling the system temperature and addition time within the above range; If the temperature is high and the time is short, the reaction will be violent and uncontrollable, and the contact between materials will not be sufficient, which will not only cause the residue and self-polymerization of some diene substances, but also make the produced epoxy resins fully contact with oxidizing substances, promote oxidation, and reduce the purity and yield of the product; If the time is too long, the nucleophilic substances in the system are easy to react with the epoxy resin with large internal tension due to the lack of oxidizing substances in the acid system, thereby promoting the decomposition of the obtained epoxy resin and the generation of by-products, and reducing the yield.
In one embodiment, the concentration of the hydrogen peroxide solution is 30-70 wt %, preferably 35 wt %, and there is no restriction on the manufacturer of the hydrogen peroxide.
The molar ratio of the hydrogen peroxide to the diene compound is preferably (1-5.5): 1.
It has been experimentally found that the specific contents of hydrogen peroxide, acid/acid anhydride and diene compound are beneficial to improve the purity, yield and colorless transparency of the obtained aliphatic epoxy resin, which may be because when there is too much diene compounds, they will undergo self-polymerization reaction, thereby reducing the yield of the obtained product; when there is too much hydrogen peroxide in the system, some water will be produced, which will reduce the purity of the system, and also promote the hydrolysis of part of the obtained epoxides, as well as the oxidation of part of the diene compounds or the obtained epoxides into ketones, then various reactions such as decomposition and oxidation in the reaction system are carried out at the same time, which will reduce the yield and purity, and make the obtained resin turn yellow, thereby affecting its application in display lamp electronic products; when there is too much acid/acid anhydride, acid enrichment in the reaction system may be formed, which will promote the decomposition of the obtained epoxy resin, reduce the yield and purity, and also make the obtained resin turn light yellow or yellowish-brown.
Step (3),
In one embodiment, the process of step (3) is as follows: standing for layering to obtain an underlayer of an organic phase 1, adding a washing liquid thereto, and stirring to wash the organic phase 1 while maintaining a certain pH value; and standing for layering to obtain an underlayer of an organic phase 2.
The pH value is preferably 10-12, and more preferably 11.
The stirring time is preferably 20-40 min, and more preferably 30 min.
In one embodiment, the weight ratio of the washing liquid to the solvent is 1:(2.5-3.5), preferably 1:3.
The washing liquid preferably includes an inorganic alkali solution and a reducing salt.
The concentration of the inorganic alkali solution is preferably 10-50 wt %, more preferably 30 wt %.
The reducing salt preferably accounts for 0.5-5 wt % of the washing liquid, more preferably 1 wt %.
Examples of the inorganic alkali include sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, potassium bicarbonate, ammonium hydroxide, etc.; the inorganic alkali is preferably sodium hydroxide, and there is no restriction on the manufacturer of the sodium hydroxide.
Examples of the reducing salt include sodium sulfite, ferrous chloride, sodium thiosulfate, ferrous sulfate, etc.; the reducing salt is preferably sodium sulfite, and there is no restriction on the manufacturer of the sodium sulfite.
It has been experimentally found that washing the obtained reaction solution with an inorganic alkali and a reducing salt at the same time is beneficial to the improvement of the yield and purity of the final product, as well as the formation of colorless and transparent epoxy resin, which may be because the interaction between the reducing salts and the oxidizing substances in the system during stirring can avoid further oxidation of the epoxy resin obtained in the system, thereby improving the purity; In addition, inorganic alkali can neutralize the residual acidic solution in the reaction solution to make it in a free ionic state in the system and transfer from the organic phase to the aqueous phase, and it can also continuously reduce the products of reducing substances and oxidizing substances during the neutralization process, thereby promoting the effect of oxidizing substances and improving the purity of the system.
The applicant also found that adjusting the content of the reducing salts in the washing liquid can further optimize the yield, purity and chroma of the products, possibly because when there is too much reducing salts, the neutralization of the alkali solution in the system is saturated, and the reducing salts are easily oxidized to produce acid enrichment, so that some organic acids remain in the organic phase, thereby promoting the decomposition of epoxy resins.
In addition, it was unexpectedly found that adjusting the ratio of the washing liquid to the organic solvent can further optimize the yield, purity and chroma of the products, possibly because the small-molecular impurities in the organic phase cannot be completely neutralized and reduced when the content of washing liquid is small, or the small-molecular impurities remain in the organic phase as the saturation is reached; However, when the content of the washing liquid is large, the organic phase tends to shrink inward to form microspheres during stirring due to the large steric hindrance and the hydrophobic ring structure of the epoxy resin, which will affect the free movement of small molecule impurities into the aqueous phase, thereby reducing the purity and chroma of the products.
In one embodiment, the process of step (3) is as follows: standing for layering to obtain an underlayer of an organic phase 1, adding a washing liquid thereto, and stirring to wash the organic phase 1 while maintaining at a certain pH value; standing for layering to obtain an underlayer of an organic phase 2; and then washing with an aqueous solution to obtain an underlayer of an organic phase 3.
The weight ratio of the aqueous solution to the solvent is preferably 1:(2.5-3.5), more preferably 1:3.
The aqueous solution preferably contains small-molecular amines and tannins; and the weight ratio of the small-molecular amines to tannins is preferably (3-5): 1, more preferably 4:1.
The small-molecular amines are preferably any one of monoethanolamine, diethanolamine, hydroxyethylethylenediamine, and N-acetylethylenediamine; and more preferably N-acetyl ethylenediamine.
It has been experimentally found that washing the product with tannins and small-molecular amines can further optimize the yield, purity, and chroma of the products, possibly because tannin is a compound with a large molecular weight and is soluble in water, it can interact with the aliphatic segments in the epoxy resin during washing and stirring, so that the relatively concentrated molecular chains in the organic phase are stretched, the space occupied volume is increased, and the relative freedom of molecules of the small-molecular impurities in the system is improved. On the other hand, the force between tannins and small molecule impurities is higher than the force between small molecules and epoxy resins in the process of stirring, so the washing efficiency is improved under the dual action; but the tannin has a large molecular weight, a low free rotation of chain segments, and a low contact ability with small molecules in the system, while the small-molecule amines are more likely to move between the interface of the aqueous phase and the organic phase under the action of tannins, thereby bringing out small molecules to interact with tannins and acting as a bridge; In addition, small-molecule amines can interact with trace metal elements in the system to reduce impurities, improve purity, and optimize chroma; at the same time, in the presence of nucleophilic groups, small-molecular amines can form N+ and further interact with nucleophilic groups, thereby weakening the interaction between nucleophilic groups and epoxy resins, reducing the decomposition of epoxy, and reducing impurities.
It has been experimentally found that adjusting the ratio of tannins to small-molecular amines can further optimize the yield, purity and chroma. It may be because when the content of tannins is small, the organic phase that shrinks inward as microspheres during stirring has a low degree of extension, and the molecular chain with large steric hindrance forms a diaphragm, which hinders the free movement of small-molecular impurities and small-molecular amines, thereby reducing the removal rate of impurities; when the content of small-molecular amines is small, the bridge effect is low, and the interaction between small-molecular impurities and the aqueous phase is weak, which causes some impurities to remain in the organic phase, thereby reducing the purity and chroma of the product.
Step (4),
In one embodiment, the process of step (4) is as follows: first purifying by a vacuum distillation, and then purifying by a two-stage thin film distillation.
In one embodiment, the vacuum degree of the vacuum distillation is −0.05-−0.1 MPa, the temperature is 25-60° C., and the time is 0.5-1 h; preferably, the vacuum degree is −0.07 MPa, the temperature is 42° C., and the time is 0.75 h.
In one embodiment, the temperature of a first-stage thin film distillation is 40-60° C., and the temperature of a second-stage thin film distillation is 80-100° C.; preferably, the temperature of the first-stage thin film distillation is 50° C., and the temperature of the second-stage thin film distillation is 90° C.
The pressure of the first-stage thin film distillation in the two-stage thin film distillation is preferably 200-250 Pa, and more preferably 220 Pa.
The pressure of the second-stage thin film distillation in the two-stage thin film distillation is preferably 20-40 Pa, and more preferably 30 Pa.
The time of the first-stage thin film distillation in the two-stage thin film distillation is preferably 0.5-1.5 h, and more preferably 1 h.
The time of the second-stage thin film distillation in the two-stage thin film distillation is preferably 0.5-1.5 h, and more preferably 1 h.
There is no restriction on the material of the thin film. In the present disclosure, the material of the thin film is a scraper, and the material is stainless steel 316L.
The applicant discovered unexpectedly in the process of product purification that by using a two-stage thin film distillation and controlling the temperature and pressure of the two-stage distillations, the solvent content in the aliphatic epoxy resin can be effectively reduced to less than 0.1%, the purification efficiency of aliphatic epoxy resin can be improved, i.e., the purification can be completed within 2 h, and the obtained aliphatic epoxy resin is colorless and transparent. This may be because using a low-temperature high-pressure thin film distillation, followed by a high-temperature low-pressure thin film distillation can effectively reduce the content of solvents, acid substances and other impurities of epoxy resin, and can effectively avoid the occurrence of side reactions during the distillation process, i.e., first using a low-temperature high-pressure thin film distillation can reduce the content of nucleophilic groups with a boiling point lower than the epoxy resin, which can avoid the decomposition of epoxy resins with large internal tension; in the initial distillation stage, the internal friction between the molecular chains is small, the viscosity is low, and the thermal parameters are also low, but the small molecules can move to the surface of the system relatively easily, which can be removed from the system in a short time; however, because the obtained epoxy resin has a certain steric hindrance, the free movement of small molecules is limited, and the solvent content in the obtained epoxy resin is still 1-5%; the solvent in the system can be further reduced after a high-temperature low-pressure thin film distillation, it may be because the molecular chains are entangled together after the previous treatment, the internal friction force in the system is increased, the viscosity is increased, and the thermal parameters are also increased. The free movement of the molecular chains is increased under high temperature and low pressure, so that the internal solvent is further freed to the surface of the system, further removing the participating solvents or small-molecular impurities in the system, and improving the purity and colorless transparency of the epoxy resin.
However, distilling by a one-stage thin film distillation at a higher temperature for 10-20 h, the obtained epoxy resin is pale yellow having a solvent residue of 0.5-1%. This is because the removal of solvent or small molecule impurities on the surface of the system is rapid under high temperature, and the degree of entanglement of molecular chains on the surface of the epoxy resin is high, which hinders the speed and total amount of solvents or other small-molecule impurities in the system to the surface. In addition, side reactions such as decomposition and self-polymerization of the non-uniform epoxy resin will occur under high temperature, which increases the instability of the system, thereby reducing the purity, increasing the solvent content and the degree of color development of the obtained epoxy resin.
