The method can be used for continuously producing a good quality polyamide, in particular, aromatic polyamide which is stable in its polymerization degree.
Description
The application is that application number is to be August 27, denomination of invention in 2003 the continuous preparation method's that is polymeric amide the dividing an application of application 03820533.5 applying date.
Technical field
The present invention relates to the continuous preparation method of the polymeric amide of the good and stable polymerization degree of quality.Continuous preparation method of the present invention also goes for fatty polyamide, contains any of aromatic polymeric amide, preferably is applicable to the more difficult aromatic polymeric amide that contains of creating conditions.
Polymeric amide with aromatic nucleus has excellent physical strength and dimensional stability, is preferred for film, sheet material, packing bag, bottle, engineering plastics, fiber etc.
Background technology
Therefore the physics of polyamide resin, mechanical properties excellence are widely used in purposes such as film, sheet material, packing bag, engineering plastics, fiber.
In the past, the main fatty polyamides such as nylon 6 and nylon 66 that use in these purposes.But, fatty polyamide usually suction, during moisture absorption and the dimensional change between when dry big, and aliphatics also has little, the undue softish shortcoming of spring rate, therefore need have more high performance polyamide resin.Based on this background,, can realize the high performance of polyamide resin by with TPA (terephthalic acid) and IPA aromatic dicarboxylic acids such as (m-phthalic acids) and fatty polyamide copolymerization in the past.For example, open clear 59-155426 number and the spy of Japan the spy of Japan and open the polyamide resin that discloses copolymerization TPA or IPA in the clear 62-156130 communique.
But, usually aromatic nucleus is imported polyamide backbone and can produce high-melting-pointization, high melt viscosityization, temperature condition when making polyamide preparation etc. becomes more harsh, so the degraded that produces of pyrolysis and the generation and the thermal destruction of gelation thing are further promoted.Its as a result the gelation thing be deposited in the polymerization reactor, cleaning frequency increases, and the gelation thing sneaks in the resin, thermal destruction produces rerum natura and reduces, and can't prepare high-quality polyamide resin.
This major cause is that polyamide resin is detained for a long time, has proposed to be used to avoid its various preparation methods under hot conditions.For example, open according to the spy of Japan that clear 60-206828 communique, the spy of Japan are opened flat 2-187427 communique, the spy of Japan opens disclosed preparation method in the flat 8-170895 communique, to avoid the long-time delay under the high temperature is purpose, in case the initial stage condenses is taken out as prepolymer, under the temperature below the fusing point of polymkeric substance, it is carried out solid state polymerization, suppress thermolysis, degraded.But these are the batch preparation method, and are not preferred on manufacturing efficient, and are easy to generate poor quality at between-lot.
In addition, as polymeric amide, also known majority uses terephthaldehyde base diamines (PXD) and MXDP aromatic diamines such as (MXD) to be raw material, has realized the absorptive aromatic polymeric amide that contains that alleviates with the raising of spring rate etc.
As the raw material of polyamide preparation,, like that, use diamines and dicarboxylic acid usually in the preparation of 6-nylon as 6.In this case, in order to bring up to the polymerization degree that to stand as the use of goods, be important to the management of the mol balance of two amine components and dicarboxylic acid composition.As the countermeasure that solves it, general method is after as the aqueous solution two amine components and dicarboxylic acid composition twenty percent branch being packed into, to carry out pH and adjust, and forms the salt of amine and carboxylic acid, in the salt formation method, in order to promote polyreaction, a large amount of moisture must be removed.Therefore, compare with turnout, essential a large amount of heat, and have problem such as device maximization.And then in the time will preparing continuously,, each pH needs the time, the method for the excellent in efficiency of therefore can not saying so because adjusting.
In order to solve the problems referred to above of the polymerization of using salt brine solution, proposed not use water, the method for carrying out the successive polymerization of polymeric amide as solvent.
For example, in the flat 10-509760 communique of the special table of Japan, adopt the excessive composition of the dicarboxylic acid of molten state is supplied in the multistage reactor, add insufficient two amine components in this reactor method.But it is necessary making the interpolation of the diamines in the polymerization reactor and polyreaction parallel in the method, and therefore the structure of device becomes special and complicated.
Open the continous way preparation method that discloses polymeric amide in the 2001-200052 communique the spy of Japan, this method comprises: will contain the diamines of xylylene diamines and the slurry of dicarboxylic acid formation and supply to continuously in the twin screw extruder of no venting port, the operation of amidate action is carried out in heating; Then, the condensation water separation that in having the single screw extrusion machine of venting port amidate action is generated is removed, and makes the operation of the polymerization degree raising of polymeric amide.According to the jack per line communique, after the pulp solution that adopts intermittent type blending diamines and dicarboxylic acid under the low temperature below 80 ℃, the beginning polyreaction.In the method, the problem of the maximization of installing in the aqueous solution polymerization is eliminated.But, to be imbued with reactive amidate action and to modulate pulp solution in order not cause, must carry out strict management to temperature and moisture rate, and on the pulp solution of modulation homogeneous, need the time, have problems on the productivity.According to embodiment, the molecular weight of the polymeric amide of preparation is little of about 3000~5000.
The continous way preparation method of nylon 66 is disclosed in the special table 2002-516366 of Japan communique.According to the jack per line communique, it is open: the dicarboxylic acid of fusion and the diamines of fusion are mixed by moles such as raw material metering systems, generate the reaction mixture of fusion, make the reaction unit (static on-line mixing machine) that reaction mixture flows into does not have ventilation, formation contains the 1st of polymeric amide and condensation water and generates logistics, generating logistics with the 1st supplies in the grooved reaction vessel of ventilation, condensation water is removed, formation contains the 2nd of polymeric amide and generates logistics, generate logistics for the 2nd in addition, by the relative quantity of near-infrared spectroscopy mensuration amine end groups and carboxylic end group, control dicarboxylic acid metering system and/or diamines metering system.
Mol balance for the diamines of controlling fused dicarboxylic acid and fusion is disclosed in the special table 2002-516365 of Japan communique, use the near-infrared analysis meter to detect carboxylic end group and amine-terminated balance in the polyblend, regulate the Controlling System of at least 1 mass rate speed of the diamines of the dicarboxylic acid of fusion and fusion according to this detected result.
But, as described in above-mentioned two communiques, employing is carried out the management of the mol balance of dicarboxylic acid and diamines from the feedback of the upstream raw material supplying of the polyblend in downstream portion, because generation time falls behind, therefore be difficult to carry out for a long time correct mol balance control, be not preferred in this, but also exist Controlling System complicated and need the shortcoming of expense.
In addition, in order to realize being applicable to the characteristic of above-mentioned various uses, be necessary for the polymeric amide of the required polymerization degree.Generally when the preparation polymeric amide,, can judge its polymerization degree by measuring the relative viscosity [RV] of goods polymeric amide.Relative viscosity is one of most important index knowing aspect the quality of polymeric amide.
Because the moisture rate of the gas phase in the interface of the molten polymer in the interior pressure (vacuum tightness) of the polymerization degree and for example temperature of reaction, reactor, the end group concentration of polymkeric substance (interpolations of terminal group adjustment agent such as acid anhydrides), the reaction etc. has relation, therefore the general any one change of adopting by these conditions, the method that the polymerization degree is regulated.
But, only the polymerization degree is regulated by in the above-mentioned condition any one, produce the various change of state beyond the polymerization degree sometimes, the quality of the polymeric amide of preparation is produced detrimentally affect.For example, only regulate vacuum tightness, in the time of obtaining high-polymerization degree with condition of high vacuum degree, because the variation of the obstruction (hold-up) that foaming produces, the polymkeric substance hold-up in the polymerization reactor changes.Its result produces pollution, residence time variation etc., is difficult to prepare the polymeric amide of target quality.
In addition, the interpolation of only adopting terminal group adjustment agent is to the polymer terminal group concentration adjustment, and in the time of obtaining the required polymerization degree, the addition of the agent of terminal group adjustment sometimes increases, and generation terminal group adjustment agent remains in the rough sledding in the goods polymeric amide in a large number.

From physics, mechanical properties and the operational stability aspect of formed body of preparation, the relative viscosity of polyamide resin [RV] is preferably 1.6~4.0 scope.When [RV] less than 1.6, the poor mechanical properties of Zhi Bei formed body not only, and exist and produce perk, perhaps the tow of polymkeric substance takes out difficulty, produces the tendency that influences increase on the operating aspect such as break during sectionization.On the contrary, when [RV] surpassed 4.0, because melt viscosity increases, it is more harsh that condition of molding becomes, and has the moulding product that are difficult for the preparation stabilizing quality, and can't expect the goods rerum natura that labour required with it is complementary.In addition, to surpass 4.0 height [RV] change in order reaching, the flushing dose of rare gas element to be increased, the use of condition of high vacuum degree becomes necessary, causes fluctuation of services such as cost rising and perk, and is therefore not preferred.Preferred [RV] is 1.9~3.8.
The terminal amino group concentration [AEG] of polyamide resin is relevant with the mol ratio of above-mentioned relative viscosity [RV] and dicarboxylic acid and diamines with end carboxy concentration [CEG].General [AEG] and [CEG] that supplies with the actual polyamide resin that uses is below 200 (meq/kg).These values can suitably be selected according to the purpose of polymeric amide.
Adopt continuous preparation method of the present invention can suppress the fluctuation of [AEG] and [CEG] effectively.The fluctuation of [AEG] and [CE6] with they standard deviation or mobility scale (through the time maximum value and minimum value poor) expression, these values are more little, the quality of polymeric amide is homogeneous more, therefore preferably.The standard deviation of [AEG] is preferably below 10 (meq/kg), and in addition, the standard deviation of [CEG] also is preferably below 10 (meq/kg).
The value of the tone of polyamide resin [Co-b] is more little, means that then yellow is few more, and tone is good.[Co-b] is if generally in-3~3 scope, then as the goods no problem.[Co-b] is not enough-3, and compare in order to reach its required labour, the difference of the tone of preparation outside can looking the scope of recognizing, therefore too big meaning not.On the contrary, when [Co-b] surpasses 3, yellow increasing, even become goods, the deterioration of its tone also can be looked significantly and recognize.Preferably [Co-b] is-2.5~2.8 scope.
The water-intake rate of polyamide resin is the degree of expression dimensional change of formed body when high and dry and between during moisture absorption.If the water-intake rate height, dimensional change increases, so water-intake rate is more little preferred more.Water-intake rate is preferred below 7%, more preferably below 6.7%.Low dimensional stability is excellent more more owing to water-intake rate, so the lower limit of water-intake rate is not particularly limited, and from the polymeric amide inherent in nature, the polymeric amide of preparation water-intake rate below 3.5% is difficult technically.
Below, with reference to Fig. 1 the continuous preparation method of polymeric amide of the present invention is described.Fig. 1 is the schema of the continuous preparation method's of expression polymeric amide of the present invention preferred concise and to the point operation.In Fig. 1, the continuous preparation method of polymeric amide comprises that raw material blending process (a) and raw material import operation (b) and amidation operation (c) and initial stage polymerization process (d) and final polymerization process (e).That is, in this embodiment, polymerization process is by amidation operation (c) and initial stage polymerization process (d) and final polymerization process (e) formation.
The raw material blending process:
The raw material blending process comprises makes the fusion respectively separately of diamines and dicarboxylic acid, each monomer of fused is directly supplied with the method for amidation operation and make amine and carboxylic acid formation salt in water, the aqueous solution of salt is supplied with the method for amidation operation.
1. the direct supply method of molten monomer
Raw material blending equipment mainly is made of the fusion tank (11) of dicarboxylic acid, the storage groove (12) of this melt liquid, the fusion tank (13) of diamines and the storage groove (14) of melt liquid thereof.This situation of Fig. 1 illustration.
Above and fusing point+50 ℃ are suitable below (than the high 50 ℃ temperature of fusing point) for its melting temperature for the melt temperature of dicarboxylic acid and reserve temperature.Making melt temperature and reserve temperature is thermolysis and the deterioration that unnecessary high temperature can cause raw material, therefore not preferred.On the contrary,, then become the heterogeneity fusion if temperature is low excessively, to the raw material supplying deterioration in accuracy of amidation operation, not preferred yet.Preferred melt temperature and reserve temperature are more than fusing point+5 ℃, below fusing point+25 ℃.For diamines also is same, and the melt temperature of diamines and reserve temperature are suitable for its fusing point below above and fusing point+50 ℃, is preferably more than fusing point+5 ℃, below fusing point+25 ℃.Diamines mostly is liquid usually at normal temperatures.
For dicarboxylic acid and diamines, in order to suppress thermooxidizing decomposition and thermolysis, all preferably under inert gas atmosphere, in fusion tank when for example under nitrogen atmosphere, being placed on the raw material blending and the storage groove.At this moment, place under the inert gas atmosphere of depressing in adding of 0.05~0.8MPa, preferred 0.1~0.6MPa and mean and prevent sneaking into of outer gas, therefore preferably.
In the raw material blending process, make the fusion respectively separately of dicarboxylic acid and diamines as mentioned above.Fused dicarboxylic acid and diamines import in the operation at raw material respectively, supply to continuously in the amidation operation with the mol ratio of stipulating.
2. salt formation method
It does not have illustrative form for Fig. 1.The salt formation method is that the preparation of polymeric amide of raw material is favourable for do not have the fusing point dicarboxylic acid with terephthalic acid and m-phthalic acid etc.Raw material blending equipment mainly is made of the storage groove and the supply pump of the aqueous solution of the salt of salt formation groove, preparation.
The salt formation groove is with uniform mixing and become the equipment of aminocarboxylate solution in water such as the dicarboxylic acid of polyamide raw materials, diamines, lactan, aminocarboxylic acid.In this salt formation operation, mol ratio amino and carboxyl can at random be regulated according to required goods rerum natura.But, if greatly, not only can not obtain the polymeric amide of required [RV] than amino/carboxyl=1 (mol ratio), for example in final polymerization process, also can become the reason of the plant issues such as perk that cause polymkeric substance.
When the blending of this raw material, the inhibition of decomposing with thermooxidizing is a purpose or as polymerizing catalyst, can add alkali metal compound or phosphorus compound together.
The salt concn of the aminocarboxylate that generates in the salt formation operation is different because of the kind of polymeric amide, is not particularly limited, and generally is preferably 30~90 weight %.When salt concn surpasses 90 weight %, sometimes because the small change of temperature, salt out and block pipe arrangement, and, therefore aspect equipment, become high temperature, high withstand voltage situation because the solubleness of salt is improved, unfavorable aspect cost.On the other hand, when making salt concn less than 30 weight %, the later evaporated quantity of water of initial stage polymerization process increases, and is unfavorable aspect energy, and productivity reduces the major cause that becomes the cost rising.Preferred salt concn is 35~85 weight %.
Condition in the salt formation operation is different because of the kind and the salt concn of polymeric amide, and generally speaking, temperature is 60~180 ℃, and pressure is the scope of 0~1MPa.When temperature surpasses 180 ℃, or when pressure surpassed 1MPa, equipment became the high withstand voltage situation of high temperature, so the cost of equipment increase, is disadvantageous.On the contrary, when 60 ℃ of temperature less thaies, or during insufficient pressure 0MPa, salt separate out the major cause that becomes problems such as pipe arrangement obstruction, and make salt concn improve difficulty, productivity is reduced.Preferred condition is that temperature is 70~170 ℃, and pressure is 0.05~0.8MPa, and more preferably temperature is 75~165 ℃, and pressure is 0.1~0.6MPa.
If the storage groove of salt brine solution is not separated out salt basically, and is then no problem, the adjusting of salt formation operation can directly be used.
Synthetic like this salt brine solution imports in the operation at raw material, supplies to continuously in the amidation operation by supply pump.Supply pump used herein must be the pump of quantitative property excellence.The change of feed rate becomes the operation change of amidation operation, and the deviation that consequently prepares relative viscosity [RV] is big, the instability quality polymeric amide.From this meaning, recommend to use the ram pump of quantitative property excellence as supply pump.
3. the oxygen concn when raw material is concocted
Atmosphere oxygen concn during the raw material blending produces a very large impact the tone of the polymeric amide of preparation.Particularly for being the polymeric amide of raw material with the MXDP, this tendency significantly.If the atmosphere oxygen concn in raw material when blending be below the 10ppm, no problem then, if but oxygen concn reach more than the 10ppm, there is the tendency of the grade variation of goods in the yellow enhancing of the polymeric amide of preparation.On the other hand, the lower limit of oxygen concn is not particularly limited, and for example is more than the 0.05ppm.In the manufacturing of polymeric amide, the not enough 0.05ppm of oxygen concn do not have any problem, but in order to reach not enough 0.05ppm, the operation of removing of oxygen becomes unnecessarily miscellaneous, to almost not finding influence with other rerum naturas headed by the tone.The scope of preferred oxygen concn be 0.05ppm above, below the 9ppm, more preferably 0.05ppm above, below the 8ppm.
In the present invention, supplying raw material into and making oxygen concn in advance except that deoxidation is in the following blending groove of 10ppm (fusion tank or raw material salt form groove), perhaps with behind the raw material input blending groove (fusion tank or raw material salt form groove), it is below the oxygen concn 10ppm that oxygen is removed the atmosphere that makes in the blending groove, perhaps can and use both.This can slave unit or the operating aspect selection of setting out.In addition, also preferably making the oxygen concn of the atmosphere in the storage groove is below the 10ppm.
As the method for removing of oxygen, comprise vacuum displacement method, pressurized displacement method or itself and use.Be applicable to metathetical vacuum tightness or pressurization degree and the displacement number of times can select to reach most effective condition for required oxygen concn.
Raw material imports operation:
Import in the operation at raw material, under the situation of the direct supply method of molten monomer, pass through each pipeline from each storage groove (12) and storage groove (14), use raw material supplying mechanism with in the raw material blending process respectively fused dicarboxylic acid and diamines import continuously in the inlet (22) of tubular reactor device of amidation operation, make diamines and dicarboxylic acid interflow.
Under the situation of salt formation method, the salt brine solution that will adjust in the raw material blending process by pipeline with supply pump imports in the inlet (22) of tubular reactor device of amidation operation continuously.
Raw material supplying mechanism preferably includes raw material feed device (15) (16), is arranged on the mass rate determinator (17) (18) in raw material feed device (15) (16) downstream side (preferably being close to thereafter), controls the output of feedway (15) (16) automatically so that the mass rate that mass rate determinator (17) (18) is measured reaches the Controlling System (19) of predefined value.Mass rate determinator (17) (18) must be arranged on the upstream side of diamines and dicarboxylic acid junction of two streams.
The supply precision of raw material feed device (15) (16) self is owing to use automatic control system (19) to carry out the high supply of precision, therefore 1.5% with interior be important.The preferred precision of raw material feed device (15) (16) is preferably below 1%, more preferably below 0.5%, most preferably below 0.25%.As raw material feed device, because quantitative property excellence, so the preferred plunger pump.
In the present invention, mass rate determinator (17) (18) is arranged on the downstream side of raw material feed device (15) (16), preferably is close to thereafter.As mass rate determinator (17) (18), can use the under meter of Coriolis-type etc.
The mass rate of each raw material of sending continuously from each raw material feed device (15) (16) with mass rate determinator (17) (18) METHOD FOR CONTINUOUS DETERMINATION.The mass rate of each raw material of measuring is delivered to control unit (19).In control unit (19), each mass flow value is preestablished so that dicarboxylic acid and diamines reach required mol balance.If the mass flow value of each raw material of measuring is sent the control signal that is used to control its output from control unit (19) to each raw material feed device (15) (16), so that each mass flow value is returned set(ting)value outside this set(ting)value.Like this, the mass flow value of each raw material is able to automatic control, and the purpose according to polymkeric substance keeps required mol balance for a long time, and dicarboxylic acid and diamines are imported the inlet (22) of tubulose reaction unit continuously.Like this, import in the operation at raw material of the present invention, the mass rate of each raw material of sending continuously from raw material feed device by mass rate determinator METHOD FOR CONTINUOUS DETERMINATION, the output of feedway is controlled on the limit automatically so that the mass rate of measuring reaches predefined value, and with the regulation mol ratio each raw material is imported in the polymerizing reactor continuously, make diamines and dicarboxylic acid the interflow.
Mass rate determinator (17) (18) is provided with if be close to the back of raw material feed device (15) (16), time-lag between feedway (15) (16) and the mass rate determinator (17) (18) becomes considerably less, the mass rate of each raw material of measuring is reflected to feedway (15) (16) immediately, therefore very preferably.
Here, the functional quality flow rate-measuring device is important as flow rate-measuring device.In the volumetric flow rate determinator, because the volume of raw material is subjected to Temperature Influence on every side, control that therefore can not be correct.
The amidation operation:
In the amidation operation, make continuous importing tubulose reaction unit inlet (22) and make the diamines at its interflow and dicarboxylic acid or salt brine solution (during the salt formation method) by carrying out amidation in the tubular reactor device (21), obtain containing the amidation resultant of low polymerization degree and the reaction mixture of condensation water.In tubular reactor device (21), do not carry out the separation of water and remove.
When the internal diameter with pipe is designated as D (mm), when the length of pipe was designated as L (mm), the L/D of tubular reactor device (21) was preferably more than 50.The advantage that the tubular reactor device has is: do not need tank level control on its structure, and the plug flow height, resistance to pressure excellence and cost of equipment are cheap etc.When L/D less than 50, if L is little, then the residence time of flow of reaction mixture shortens, and the rising degree of relative viscosity [RV] is little, and on the other hand, if D is big, plug flow reduces, and produces the residence time distribution, can not bring into play required function.The upper limit for L/D is not particularly limited, if consider the rising degree of residence time and relative viscosity [RV], is about 3000.For the lower limit of L/D, more preferably more than 60, more preferably more than 80, for the upper limit of L/D, more preferably below 2000, more preferably below 1000.In addition, for the lower limit of L, more than the preferred 3m, more preferably more than the 5m, for the lower limit of L, below the preferred 50m, more preferably below the 30m.
Reaction conditions is different because of the structure and the purpose polymerization degree of polymeric amide in the tubular reactor device (21), and for example, interior temperature is 110~310 ℃, and interior pressure is 0~5MPa, and average retention time is 10~120 minutes in the pipe of reaction mixture.The polymerization degree of amidation resultant can be controlled by interior temperature, interior pressure and average retention time.
When average retention time than 10 minutes in short-term, the polymerization degree step-down of the amidation resultant of low polymerization degree, its result is accompanied by the spittle and produces perk etc., processing ease instability in the operation of back.On the other hand, when average retention time was longer than 120 minutes, amidation reached balance, and the rising of [RV] reaches capacity, and thermal destruction is carried out on the other hand, and is therefore not preferred.Preferred average retention time is 12~110 minutes, more preferably 15~100 minutes.The control of average retention time can be adjusted the inside diameter D of the pipe of tubular reactor device, the length L of pipe, perhaps makes the raw material supplying quantitative changeization.
Preferably by the polycondensation of amidation operation, inlet (22) and outlet (23) in tubular reactor device (21) make the relative viscosity [RV] of reaction mixture rise 0.05~0.6.When the rising that makes [RV] than 0.05 hour, the situation short with the residence time is identical, the polymerization degree of amidation resultant is low, therefore is being accompanied by the spittle in the operation of back and is producing perk etc., processing ease instability.On the other hand, when the rising that makes [RV] was bigger than 0.6, because the influence of the condensation water (when the salt formation method, water that uses in salt formation and condensation water) of coexistence, thermal destruction was carried out easily.In addition, the reaction mixture that excess stickiness rises becomes the reason of pipe arrangement obturation, sometimes operation is produced detrimentally affect.The lifting range of preferred [RV] is 0.15~0.5 in the amidation operation, more preferably 0.2~0.4.
In order to guarantee the plunger tpe flowability of amidation operation, preferred velocity of shear (γ) is more than 0.1 (1/sec), and shear-stress (τ) is 1.5 * 10
-5More than the Pa.If either party of velocity of shear and shear-stress is lower than above-mentioned value, the width that the residence time of reaction mixture distributes broadens, and polymeric amide is painted, produces the operation change sometimes.Preferred velocity of shear (γ) is more than 0.3, and shear-stress (τ) is 2.0 * 10
-5More than the Pa.Their upper limit is not particularly limited, and velocity of shear (γ) is below 100 (1/sec) usually, and shear-stress (τ) is 3 * 10
-2Below the Pa.
The initial stage polymerization process
In the early stage in the polymerization process, to contain from the amidation resultant of the low polymerization degree of amidation operation and condensation water (during the salt formation method, also comprise the water that uses in the salt formation) reaction mixture import in continuous reaction apparatus water sepn can be removed, under the temperature more than the fusing point of the final polymeric amide for preparing, water sepn is removed, the polymerization degree is improved, obtain the polyamide prepolymer polymers.
In the polymerization process, can use equipment such as vertical steel basin and centrifugal thin-film formula rapid steamer in the early stage, preferably use the easy vertical steel basin (31) of reaction conditions control.Constituting of vertical steel basin (31): possess the reaction mixture of continuous acceptance from amidation operation outlet (23), device (32) is removed in the separation of water, continuously the polyamide prepolymer polymers is discharged from its bottom (33).
Reaction conditions in the initial stage polymerization process: for example, interior temperature is that the fusing point (Tm) of polymeric amide of final preparation is above, below the Tm+90 ℃, and interior pressure is 0~5MPa, and average retention time is 10~150 minutes.Preferred reaction conditions: interior temperature is that the fusing point (Tm) of polymeric amide is above, below the Tm+80 ℃, the interior pressure is 0~4MPa, average retention time is 15~140 minutes, preferred reaction conditions: interior temperature is that the fusing point (Tm) of polymeric amide is above, below the Tm+70 ℃, the interior pressure is 0~3.5MPa, and average retention time is 20~130 minutes.If reaction conditions is outside the above-mentioned scope, it is low excessively to arrive the polymerization degree, produces thermal destruction and productivity reduction etc., therefore not preferred.The polymerization degree of polyamide prepolymer polymers can be controlled by interior temperature, interior pressure and average retention time.
Final polymerization process:
In final polymerization process, to import from the polyamide prepolymer polymers of initial stage polymerization process in the continous way polymerization reactor that water sepn can be removed, the polymerization degree is improved, must reach the polymeric amide of required relative viscosity [RV].
As the continuous reaction apparatus in the final polymerization process, the preferred horizontal twin screw reaction unit that uses with self-stip.At the general horizontal twin screw reaction unit that is used for the polyreaction purposes (for example, the special public clear 50-21514 communique of Japan, the spy of Japan open clear 48-84781 communique) in, because the hold-up in jar changes, therefore cause thermal distortion easily, be used for the preparation of polymeric amide for a long time, owing to the pollution of jar inwall worsens the quality of goods polymeric amide, therefore not preferred.
In order to alleviate such detrimentally affect, can use jar inwall to have the single screw extrusion machine and the twin screw extruder of self-stip.The reaction efficiency of twin screw extruder has self-stip function to a certain degree, therefore recommends usually to use.But twin screw extruder not only can not make in the device all under the vacuum, and is easy to generate perk in the low melting viscosity thing.In addition, owing to high shear force makes temperature control difficulty, and exist degree of freedom to the residence time to have the problem of restriction etc.In addition, prolong in order to make the residence time, device maximizes, and cost of equipment also improves etc., and is therefore unfavorable.
Therefore, as continuous reaction apparatus, preferably use the horizontal twin screw reaction unit (41) of self-stip mode, for example the SCR of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd's system.In the horizontal twin screw reaction unit (41) of self-stip mode, Ji (rotor) has distortion, constitutes 2 parallel drive shafts under small gap eclipsed state, and 2 parallel drive shafts are along equidirectional rotation.The narrower gap of Ji and Ji, the cleaning performance in the gap between the Ji is big more, and is therefore preferred.The gap of Ji and Ji changes because of the size of device in the horizontal twin screw reaction unit of self-stip mode, when the internal volume of reaction unit is 0.15m
3During the left and right sides, the gap of Ji Heji is preferably below the 50mm, more preferably below the 20mm, most preferably is below the 10mm.
The horizontal twin screw reaction unit of self-stip mode is compared with general horizontal twin screw reaction machine, and the gap of Ji and inwall is little, therefore is accompanied by the rotation of drive shaft, has also produced the cleaning performance of inwall.The gap of Ji and inwall changes because of the size of device, when the internal volume of reaction unit is 0.15m
3During the left and right sides, the gap of Ji and inwall is preferably below the 15mm, more preferably below the 10mm, most preferably below the 5mm.
The gap of Ji and inwall little this point is also identical in twin screw extruder.But, with between the Ji, have suitable gap and drive shaft and compare along the twin screw extruder of opposite spin, for SCR, between the Ji, only exist little gap and parallel 2 drive shafts along equidirectional rotation, so the cleaning performance between the Ji is bigger.Alleviate because self-stip effect, dirt are adhered to, pollute and reduce, quality is risen, be applicable to the preparation of the polymeric amide that in reaction, is easy to generate thermal destruction.In addition, because it is different with twin screw extruder, can will all place under the vacuum in the device, therefore has following advantage: even for the low melting viscosity thing, also be suitable for vacuum, and the heating that shearing force produces is little, the residence time is also long, for the suitable power height of viscosity change, flow change, and the viscosity width that can produce is big.In addition, compare with twin screw extruder, having on equipment can compression, and on cost the low profitability of price.
The reaction conditions of final polymerization process is different because of the kind of polymeric amide and required relative viscosity [RV], and resin temperature is that the fusing point (Tm) of polymeric amide is above, below the Tm+80 ℃, and preferred fusing point is above, below the Tm+70 ℃.If resin temperature is more than Tm+80 ℃, the degraded of polymeric amide is easy to be accelerated, and becomes rerum natura and reduces and painted reason.On the contrary, if be below the Tm, polymeric amide solidifies, and has the danger of causing the reaction unit damage.
Average retention time in the flow reactor is different because of the kind of polymeric amide, required relative viscosity [RV], vacuum tightness, the interpolation of anhydride compound described later, the cleaning of rare gas element described later etc., but is preferably 1~30 minute.If average retention time less than 1 minute, be difficult to prepare the polymeric amide of [RV] with 1.6~4.0 scopes, on the contrary, if average retention time was above 30 minutes, feed rate in the flow reactor of polymkeric substance is reduced, cause productive remarkable reduction.Preferred average retention time is 1.5~25 minutes, more preferably 2~20 minutes.
The screw rod revolution (rpm) of reaction unit SCR is different with the situation of twin screw extruder, and is little to the influence of polyreaction and average retention time, can suitably select, and generally uses 20rpm~150rpm.
In final polymerization process, carry out control as the relative viscosity [RV] of polymerizing polyamide degree index.The relative viscosity [RV] of the polymeric amide of preparation is relevant with the melt viscosity of the polymkeric substance of the reactor outlet of final polymerization process, therefore by the melt viscosity of controlling polymers, can carry out the control of relative viscosity [RV].
In the present invention, preferably use viscometer (50) that the melt viscosity that final polymerization reactor exports the polymkeric substance of (45) is carried out METHOD FOR CONTINUOUS DETERMINATION, measurement result is fed back to the polymerization process condition so that the viscosity number of measuring reaches the value of predefined certain limit.
As the polymerization process condition of the melt viscosity that is used for controlling polymers, comprise flushing dose in the rare gas element flushing operation in the 1. reactor, 2. the vacuum tightness in the vacuum operating in the reactor, 3. in reactor, add 3 of addition in the operation that terminal group adjusts agent.Below each method is described.
The rare gas element flushing operation promotes polyreaction on the one hand, can control melt viscosity by adjusting flushing dose on the other hand.Rare gas element carries out from rare gas element rinse mouth (42).The flushing dose of rare gas element is different because of polymerizing conditions such as melt viscosity, temperature, and its amount is in every 1kg polymkeric substance 10L, and preference is as 0.005~10L.If flushing dose surpasses 10L/kg, to compare with the promoter action of polyreaction, the amount of inert gas surplus of use becomes the major cause that cost rises.Preferred flushing dose is 0.005~9.5L/kg, further preferred 0.01~9L/kg.In addition, even when not carrying out rare gas element flushing and also can obtain required RV, also can not cleaning (is flushing dose: 10L/kg).As rare gas element, if be inertia for the polymeric amide formation reaction, no matter kind then, nitrogen is favourable aspect secure context, cost.
The moisture rate of rare gas element is to be important below the 0.05 weight %.If moisture rate is than 0.05 weight % height, the rising of melt viscosity slows down, and productivity is produced detrimentally affect, becomes the reason of gelation.Preferred moisture rate is below the 0.03 weight %, more preferably below the 0.01 weight %.In addition, below the preferred 0.1 weight % of the oxygen concn of reaction atmosphere, more preferably below the 0.001 weight %.
Also can promote polyreaction, by adjusting the vacuum degree control speed of response, the control melt viscosity by vacuum operating.Undertaken by vacuum port (43).The formation reaction of polymeric amide is the condensation reaction of carboxylic acid and amine, and by the water that generates is removed, polyreaction is promoted.The vacuum tightness of using in final polymerization process is different because of required melt viscosity, polymerizing condition, but is 150~1200hPa.If not enough 150hPa, pipe arrangement is perhaps blocked in polymkeric substance perk in final polymerization process, can not expect stable operability.On the contrary, if surpass 1200hPa, the effect of vacuum tightness is little, and the speed that arrives required melt viscosity is slowed down, and productivity reduces, and can not arrive required melt viscosity sometimes.Preferred vacuum tightness is 200~1100hPa, more preferably 250~1050hPa.
On the other hand, can adjust agent by the terminal group of anhydride compound etc. and add operation polyreaction is controlled, can controls reaction speed by adjusting its addition, can control melt viscosity.Undertaken by adding mouthful (44).Think that the terminal amino group of polymkeric substance is blocked by the interpolation of anhydride compound, therefore can the controlled polymerization reaction.As the anhydride compound that uses, can enumerate hexahydrophthalic anhydride (HOPA), Tetra hydro Phthalic anhydride, trimellitic anhydride, equal benzene four acid anhydrides, succinyl oxide etc., from the tone aspect of polymeric amide, preferably use HOPA.The addition of anhydride compound is different because of required melt viscosity, is not particularly limited, below the preferred 150meq/kg of common every 1kg polymkeric substance.If addition surpasses 150meq/kg, polymerization velocity slows down, and becomes the major cause of perk, the operational stability variation.In addition, unreacted anhydride compound remains in the polymkeric substance, becomes the reason that the polymeric amide quality reduces.
As the control method of the melt viscosity of polymkeric substance, preferably in above-mentioned 3 operations, only carry out the rare gas element flushing operation separately, perhaps rare gas element flushing operation, vacuum operating and terminal group are adjusted operation more than 2 and usefulness in the interpolation operation of agent.
If carry out the interpolation operation that vacuum operating or terminal group are adjusted agent separately, can manifest evils shown below, the preferable methods of therefore can not saying so.For example, if the change of vacuum tightness increases, the variation of the obstruction that produces for foaming, the polymkeric substance hold-up in the polymerizer changes.Its result produces pollution, residence time variation etc., is difficult to prepare the polymeric amide of target quality.In addition, excessive if terminal group is adjusted the change of agent addition, the end group concentration of the polymeric amide of preparation produces fluctuation, and is therefore also not preferred.
Therefore, by using the method for only carrying out the rare gas element flushing operation separately and controlling flushing dose automatically, perhaps rare gas element flushing operation, vacuum operating and terminal group are adjusted in the interpolation operation of agent 2 or 3 operations and with and the method controlled automatically at least a kind operational ton of the operation of carrying out, not only suppress above-mentioned evils, and can stablize the melt viscosity of controlling polymers.
In addition, in the present invention, when operating for 2 that carry out from above-mentioned, choosing, be fixed value preferably with 1 operational ton in 2 operational tons, another operational ton is controlled automatically.
In addition, in the present invention, when carrying out above-mentioned whole 3 whens operation, be fixed value preferably with 2 operational tons in 3 operational tons, only other 1 operational ton is controlled automatically, perhaps also preferred only with 1 operational ton in 3 operational tons as fixed value, control automatically for other 2 operational tons.
Select above-mentioned any method, can suitably select according to the kind of the polymeric amide that will prepare and the required polymerization degree.
Vacuum operating is carried out in the interpolation operation that preferable methods is adjusted agent for not carrying out terminal group, and it is certain making vacuum tightness, and is the method for the automatic control of variable quantity with the rare gas element flushing dose.The advantage of this method is: with the flushing of independent rare gas element or the preparation of the polymeric amide of the high-polymerization degree that reaches of vacuum tightness is easy separately, if make vacuum tightness too high, might produce perk, by with rare gas element flushing, can not make vacuum tightness too high and remain on certain value.
Optimum condition in this case: vacuum tightness is the interior certain value of scope of 400~1150hPa, the rare gas element flushing dose is the automatic control in the scope of 0.005~9.5L/kg, more preferably, vacuum tightness is the interior certain value of scope of 450~1100hPa, and the rare gas element flushing dose is the automatic control in the scope of 0.01~9L/kg.The not enough 0.005L/kg of rare gas element flushing dose, perhaps vacuum tightness surpasses 1150hPa, and polymerization velocity slows down.On the contrary, if the rare gas element flushing dose surpasses 9.5L/kg, perhaps vacuum degree deficiency 400hPa, the usage quantity of rare gas element increases, and becomes the major cause that cost increases, and polymerization velocity slows down in addition, and it is unfavorable to produce productivity reduction etc.

As viscometer (50), can use known in the past viscometers such as tubule formula viscometer, oscillatory viscometer, but keeping from continuous preparation managed easy aspect, preferred oscillatory viscometer.
Automatically be controlled at the index of correctly carrying out on which kind of degree as what know melt viscosity, can use for through the time polymeric amide taked the standard deviation [σ] of relative viscosity [RV].In order to ensure the stable quality of polymeric amide, preferred [σ] is below 0.12, more preferably below 0.09.
For example, be in the polymeric amide of main raw material with ADA-MXD, the control method of preferred [RV] is rare gas element flushing and vacuum tightness and uses.The advantage of this method is to use separately the preparation of polymeric amide of the height [RV] that rare gas element or vacuum tightness can reach easy, and under the certain vacuum degree, carry out the control of [RV] by the flushing dose of rare gas element, perhaps fix the control of carrying out [RV] by the adjustment of vacuum tightness in amount of inert gas one on the contrary, also have the advantage that [RV] control can soft be carried out.
Preferred condition is: the rare gas element flushing dose is 0.005~9.5L/kg, and vacuum tightness is 200~1150hPa, more preferably 0.01~9L/kg, 250~1100hPa.If the not enough 0.005L/kg of rare gas element flushing dose, perhaps vacuum tightness surpasses 1150hPa, and polymerization velocity slows down.On the contrary, if the rare gas element flushing dose surpasses 9.5L/kg, perhaps vacuum degree deficiency 200hPa, the usage quantity of rare gas element increases, and becomes the major cause that cost increases, and polymerization velocity slows down in addition, and it is unfavorable to produce productivity reduction etc.
