2. Description of the Related Art It is well known that a sulfonic acid type cation exchange resin in which a part of sulfonic acid groups is modified with an aminothiol compound is suitable as a catalyst for a reaction for producing bisphenol by reacting a phenol compound with a ketone. ing. Since the sulfonic acid type cation exchange resin is usually commercially available in the form of sodium, to prepare this aminothiol-modified cation exchange resin, the sodium type sulfonic acid type cation exchange resin is first treated with hydrochloric acid or the like. To the free form. Next, this free resin is treated with a solution of an aminothiol compound to partially modify the sulfonic acid group with the aminothiol compound. This series of operations is performed in a batch mode. Then, the obtained aminothiol-modified cation exchange resin is drained and stored, or stored in water.

In the production of bisphenol using an aminothiol-modified cation exchange resin as a catalyst, usually, a feed fluid containing a phenol compound and a ketone is continuously fed into a fixed-bed reactor filled with the resin. It is performed by distributing. Since the catalytic activity of the aminothiol-modified cation exchange resin gradually decreases, the catalyst is replaced once every several to twenty months. As described above, since the preparation of the aminothiol-modified cation exchange resin used as a catalyst is performed in a batch system, the catalyst is usually prepared and stored little by little in preparation for replacement. However, according to the study of the present inventors, it has been found that when stored in water, the modification rate of the resin decreases, and that one half of the cause is due to the aminothiol compound detaching from the resin during storage. did. When the aminothiol compound is desorbed from the catalyst adjusted to a predetermined modification rate to lower the modification rate, the catalyst does not exhibit the expected performance. Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a method for suppressing elimination of an aminothiol compound when storing an aminothiol-modified cation exchange resin in water.

The sulfonic acid type cation exchange resin is modified by
First, a commercially available sulfonic acid type cation exchange resin (sodium type) is treated with dilute hydrochloric acid or dilute sulfuric acid to be converted to a free type. After sufficient washing with water to remove the acid, it is treated with a solution containing a calculated amount of aminothiol compound to modify part of the sulfonic acid groups, usually 10 to 40%, with the aminothiol compound. It is preferable that the aminothiol compound is uniformly contacted with the sulfonic acid type cation exchange resin over the entire resin so that the sulfonic acid type cation exchange resin is uniformly modified. Then, by washing with water to remove the remaining aminothiol compound, an aminothiol-modified cation exchange resin suitable as a bisphenol production catalyst is obtained.

In the present invention, the aminothiol-modified cation exchange resin is stored in water having a pH of 2 to 7. When stored in water having a pH of less than 2, the aminothiol compound is released during storage. This is because the aminothiol compound bound to the sulfonic acid group is partially dissociated based on the dissociation equilibrium and moves into the water, but when the pH of the water is smaller than 2, the aminothiol compound transferred into the water is converted into an acid. It is considered that the formation of a salt promotes the dissociation of the aminothiol compound from the resin. Even when the pH of water is higher than 7, the aminothiol compound bonded to the sulfonic acid group is displaced by the alkali in the water and is eliminated from the resin. Therefore, when storing the aminothiol-modified cation exchange resin, it is necessary to use water having a pH of 2 to 7 and to prevent the acid from being eluted from the resin during the storage and the pH of the water to be lower than 2. For this purpose, it is preferable to sufficiently wash the resin before denaturation with the aminothiol compound to reduce the contained acid. In addition, during long-term storage, the pH of water should be measured during storage, and if the pH has dropped, the water should be replaced. Since dissolved oxygen in water also reacts with the aminothiol-modified cation exchange resin to lower the denaturation rate of the resin, the resin is preferably filled in a container, and the container is preferably sealed and stored.
Filling the container with resin can reduce the ratio of water to resin, and thus the ratio of dissolved oxygen in water to aminothiol compounds bound to the resin, to mitigate the effects of dissolved oxygen and seal. Thus, external supply of oxygen can be cut off. Preferably, it is stored using water from which dissolved oxygen has been removed by aeration with nitrogen gas. In addition, when the storage temperature is high, the aminothiol compound is easily desorbed, so that the storage is preferably performed at room temperature or lower temperature.
