Background
The slurry process polyethylene adopts parallel or serial polymerization process, high purity ethylene as main material, hexane as solvent, high efficiency catalyst and butene-1 or propylene as comonomer or functional assistant are added to obtain high density polyethylene product in dozens of grades. However, in the high-temperature processing process and daily use process of the high-density polyethylene product, harmful Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) can be released to different degrees by the additives, and particularly in the high-density polyethylene product, about 2000-5000 ppm of hexane solvent remains, so that the quality of the food-grade polyethylene product is seriously influenced.
The invention patent application No. 201210209208.5 in the prior art discloses a method for removing odor of a high-density polyethylene food-grade special material, which utilizes the working principle of steaming and drying, and adopts a technology of closed circulation steaming and drying of nitrogen by taking a steamer and a dryer as key equipment combination to remove hexane solvent in the high-density polyethylene food-grade special material, so that the hexane solvent in the high-density polyethylene product is about 200ppm, the value and the quality of the high-density polyethylene product are increased, the three-waste discharge is not increased, and the problem of residual solvent in the high-density polyethylene food-grade special material is solved. The invention patent application number 201710600963.9 discloses a low-odor low-VOC polyethylene composite material and a preparation device and a method thereof, and discloses a method for removing harmful volatile organic compounds in the composite material by stages by combining 55-97 parts of linear high-density polyethylene resin with other additives, an extracting agent and an adsorbing agent, adding the extracting agent and the adsorbing agent by stages in the preparation process, and improving the position of a vacuum port in the preparation device. The invention discloses a modified thermoplastic elastomer material with low odor and low VOC (volatile organic compounds) and a preparation method thereof, and discloses a modified thermoplastic elastomer material consisting of 5-35 parts of polyethylene resin and other additives; because a small amount of auxiliary agents, antioxidants, lubricants, acid absorbing agents and anti-aging agents are used and carry out chemical reaction with small molecules generated in the preparation process, the odor and VOC in the material are thoroughly reduced, the odor of the material is still less than or equal to 3.0 grade after the material is used for a year, and the VOC content still meets the GB/T27630-plus 2011 index requirement. The invention has patent application number 201910071136.4, a predispersion color sheet and a preparation method thereof, namely a pencil and a manufacturing method thereof, and discloses that the predispersion color sheet consists of polyethylene resin and other additives, uses non-toxic organic materials and does not contain any solvent, thereby reducing VOC (volatile organic compounds) emission, causing no pollution to the environment and meeting the national standard; the pencil coated with the pre-dispersion color piece to prepare the coating is more suitable for children, and the pencil manufacturing process is clean and environment-friendly, short in surface drying time, high in production efficiency, low in production cost and strong in applicability.
At present, in the process flow of producing polyethylene products by a slurry method, powder is only dried by a roller dryer, and finally, the extruded polyethylene products mainly contain VOC (volatile organic compounds) of hexane solvent, and the content of the VOC is as high as 2000-5000 ppm. Although the invention patent application No. 201210209208.5 in the prior art adopts a nitrogen closed circulation steaming and drying technology which takes a steamer and a dryer as key equipment combination to remove the hexane solvent in the high-density polyethylene food-grade special material, two additional equipment are needed, and the water vapor is directly injected into a polyethylene powder system, so that the hexane solvent in the final high-density polyethylene product still reaches about 200 ppm. The invention patent application numbers 201710600963.9 and 201711237536.5 and 201910071136.4 in the prior art all adopt a method for reducing the content of VOC by mixing polyethylene resin with other auxiliary agents, and the target products of polyethylene are different, so that the technical method, the production technical process and the manufacturing technical means are also different, but the VOC content can be reduced only in a qualitative way, and no data for reducing the VOC content in a quantitative way is available.
Therefore, the method for reducing VOC by using the polyethylene powder in the prior art has the problems that the number of equipment is large, the water vapor condensate and the polyethylene powder need to be separated again, the residual hexane solvent is not thoroughly removed, and the content of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) is high. With the continuous improvement of the environmental protection requirement and the HSE requirement of the polyethylene product, a new high-efficiency removal technical means is urgently needed to reduce the content of VOC in the polyethylene product.
