Description

本発明は、スルホン酸基を含有した両性水溶性高分子が水に溶解したスルホン酸基含有両性水溶性高分子水溶液およびその製造方法に関する。   The present invention relates to a sulfonic acid group-containing amphoteric water-soluble polymer aqueous solution in which an amphoteric water-soluble polymer containing a sulfonic acid group is dissolved in water, and a method for producing the same.

近年、水溶性高分子は、廃水処理、製紙・紙加工、化粧品・トイレタリー、あるいは塗料・インキなどの幅広い分野に利用されている。特に、水溶性高分子の中でも、分子鎖中にカチオン基とアニオン基の両方を有する、いわゆる両性高分子は、帯電防止剤、ヘアセット剤、あるいは汚泥脱水剤などの用途に利用されている。
一般に、両性水溶性高分子は水に溶解した状態で用いられるため、アニオン基を、酸性物質の存在下でその解離を抑制できるカルボキシ基等の弱酸にすることが多いが、用途によっては、スルホン酸基にすることもある。しかしながら、スルホン酸基などの強酸にすると、酸性物質の存在下においてもその解離を抑制することが困難になる。そのため、同一の分子内あるいは異なる分子同士でアニオン基とカチオン基とのイオンコンプレックスを生じて、両性水溶性高分子が水に溶解しにくくなることがあった。
In recent years, water-soluble polymers have been used in a wide range of fields such as wastewater treatment, papermaking / paper processing, cosmetics / toiletries, and paints / inks. In particular, among water-soluble polymers, so-called amphoteric polymers having both a cation group and an anion group in the molecular chain are used for applications such as antistatic agents, hair set agents, sludge dehydrating agents and the like.
In general, since amphoteric water-soluble polymers are used in a state of being dissolved in water, the anionic group is often a weak acid such as a carboxy group that can suppress dissociation in the presence of an acidic substance. It may be an acid group. However, when a strong acid such as a sulfonic acid group is used, it is difficult to suppress the dissociation even in the presence of an acidic substance. For this reason, an ionic complex of an anion group and a cation group is generated in the same molecule or between different molecules, and the amphoteric water-soluble polymer may be difficult to dissolve in water.

そこで、特許文献1では、スルホン酸基を導入した両性水溶性高分子をエマルジョン化し、水に分散させて、高分子凝集脱水剤として利用することが提案されている。   Therefore, Patent Document 1 proposes emulsifying an amphoteric water-soluble polymer into which a sulfonic acid group has been introduced, dispersing it in water, and using it as a polymer coagulation dehydrating agent.

しかしながら、特許文献1に記載の両性水溶性高分子では、スルホン酸基の導入量が0.1〜3モル%と少ない上に、形態がエマルジョンであるため、用途が限定されるという問題を有していた。

Quaternary salts such as tertiary salt such as hydrochloride, alkyl halide adduct such as methyl chloride adduct of dialkylaminoalkyl (meth) acrylate, aryl halide adduct such as benzyl chloride adduct; dimethylaminopropyl ( Tertiary salts such as dialkylaminoalkyl (meth) acrylamide hydrochloride such as meth) acrylamide, halogenated alkyl adduct such as methyl chloride adduct of dialkylaminoalkyl (meth) acrylamide, halogen such as benzyl chloride adduct Such quaternary salts such as aryl adducts. Of these, methyl chloride quaternary salt of dimethylaminoethyl (meth) acrylate is preferred because of its high versatility and relatively low cost. These water-soluble cationic monomers may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

スルホン酸基含有両性水溶性高分子における水溶性カチオン性単量体単位の含有量は、スルホン酸基含有両性水溶性高分子を100モル%とした際の5〜90モル%であり、40〜70モル%であることが好ましい。水溶性カチオン性単量体単位の含有量が5モル%未満であると、水溶性カチオン性単量体単位を有することによる効果が発揮されにくくなって、用途が限定される。水溶性カチオン性単量体単位の含有量が95モル%を超えると、スルホン酸基含有水溶性アニオン性単量体単位の含有量が5モル%未満になるため、スルホン酸基含有水溶性アニオン性単量体単位を有することによる効果が発揮されにくくなる。   The content of the water-soluble cationic monomer unit in the sulfonic acid group-containing amphoteric water-soluble polymer is 5 to 90 mol% with respect to 100 mol% of the sulfonic acid group-containing amphoteric water-soluble polymer. It is preferable that it is 70 mol%. When the content of the water-soluble cationic monomer unit is less than 5 mol%, the effect of having the water-soluble cationic monomer unit is hardly exhibited, and the use is limited. When the content of the water-soluble cationic monomer unit exceeds 95 mol%, the content of the sulfonic acid group-containing water-soluble anionic monomer unit becomes less than 5 mol%. The effect due to having a monomeric monomer unit is hardly exhibited.

スルホン酸基含有水溶性アニオン性単量体としては、例えば、アクリルアミド−2−メチルプロパンスルホン酸単量体および/またはその塩、ビニルスルホン酸および/またはその塩、スチレンスルホン酸および/またはその塩などが挙げられる。これらの中でも、汎用性が高く、比較的安価であることから、アクリルアミド−2−メチルプロパンスルホン酸単量体および/またはその塩が好ましい。これらスルホン酸基含有水溶性アニオン性単量体は、1種を単独で用いてもよく、2種以上を併用してもよい。   Examples of the sulfonic acid group-containing water-soluble anionic monomer include acrylamide-2-methylpropane sulfonic acid monomer and / or salt thereof, vinyl sulfonic acid and / or salt thereof, styrene sulfonic acid and / or salt thereof. Etc. Among these, an acrylamide-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid monomer and / or a salt thereof is preferable because it is highly versatile and relatively inexpensive. These sulfonic acid group-containing water-soluble anionic monomers may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

スルホン酸基含有両性水溶性高分子におけるスルホン酸基含有水溶性アニオン性単量体単位の含有量は、スルホン酸基含有両性水溶性高分子を100モル%とした際の5〜50モル%であり、10〜40モル%であることが好ましい。スルホン酸基含有水溶性アニオン性単量体単位の含有量が5モル%未満であると、スルホン酸基含有水溶性アニオン性単量体単位の含有量が5モル%未満になるため、スルホン酸基含有水溶性アニオン性単量体単位を有することによる効果が発揮されにくくなる。スルホン酸基含有水溶性アニオン性単量体単位の含有量が50モル%を超えると、水溶性カチオン性単量体のカチオン基とイオンコンプレックスを形成するため、スルホン酸基含有両性水溶性高分子が溶解されにくくなる。   The content of the sulfonic acid group-containing water-soluble anionic monomer unit in the sulfonic acid group-containing amphoteric water-soluble polymer is 5 to 50 mol% when the sulfonic acid group-containing amphoteric water-soluble polymer is 100 mol%. Yes, and preferably 10 to 40 mol%. When the content of the sulfonic acid group-containing water-soluble anionic monomer unit is less than 5 mol%, the content of the sulfonic acid group-containing water-soluble anionic monomer unit is less than 5 mol%. The effect of having a group-containing water-soluble anionic monomer unit is hardly exhibited. When the content of the sulfonic acid group-containing water-soluble anionic monomer unit exceeds 50 mol%, an ionic group is formed with the cation group of the water-soluble cationic monomer. Becomes difficult to dissolve.

他の単量体としては、水に溶解する成分であれば特に限定されないが、用途がより広がることから、水溶性非イオン性単量体である(メタ)アクリルアミド単量体、スルホン酸基含有水溶性アニオン性単量体以外の水溶性アニオン性単量体である(メタ)アクリル酸単量体および/またはその塩が好ましい。これら他の単量体は、1種を単独で用いてもよく、2種以上を併用してもよい。   The other monomer is not particularly limited as long as it is a component that dissolves in water. However, since the use is further expanded, a (meth) acrylamide monomer that is a water-soluble nonionic monomer, containing a sulfonic acid group A (meth) acrylic acid monomer and / or a salt thereof, which is a water-soluble anionic monomer other than the water-soluble anionic monomer, is preferred. These other monomers may be used individually by 1 type, and may use 2 or more types together.

他の単量体単位の含有量は、スルホン酸基含有両性水溶性高分子を100モル%とした際の5〜70モル%であり、10〜50モル%であることが好ましい。他の単量体単位の含有量が5モル%未満であると、スルホン酸基含有両性水溶性高分子の分子量が低くなり、特に高分子量を要する高分子凝集剤用途で充分な凝集脱水性能が得られないことがある。他の単量体単位の含有量が70モル%を超えると、水溶性カチオン性単量体およびスルホン酸基含有水溶性アニオン性単量体の含有量が少なくなるため、両性水溶性高分子の用途が限定される。   The content of other monomer units is 5 to 70 mol%, preferably 10 to 50 mol%, based on 100 mol% of the sulfonic acid group-containing amphoteric water-soluble polymer. When the content of other monomer units is less than 5 mol%, the molecular weight of the sulfonic acid group-containing amphoteric water-soluble polymer is low, and sufficient agglomeration and dewatering performance can be obtained particularly for polymer flocculant applications that require a high molecular weight. It may not be obtained. When the content of other monomer units exceeds 70 mol%, the content of the water-soluble cationic monomer and the sulfonic acid group-containing water-soluble anionic monomer is reduced. Applications are limited.

[スルホン酸基含有両性水溶性高分子の製造方法]
上記スルホン酸基含有両性水溶性高分子は、水溶性カチオン性単量体とスルホン酸基含有水溶性アニオン性単量体と他の単量体とを共重合させることにより得られる。
共重合の方法としては、例えば、共重合させる単量体を含む単量体反応液を調製し、レドックス開始剤およびアゾ系開始剤などの熱によりラジカルを発生させる開始剤を用いて、単量体反応液を共重合する水溶液断熱重合方法が挙げられる。また、重合開始前の単量体反応液を均一にシート状にし、光開始剤を用いて可視光あるいは紫外光を照射して共重合を行う水溶液光重合方法が挙げられる。これらの中でも、水溶液光重合方法が好ましい。水溶液光重合方法では、通常、共重合が終了すると、含水ゲル状の共重合体(すなわち、スルホン酸基含有両性水溶性高分子化合物の含水物)が得られる。
[Method for producing amphoteric water-soluble polymer containing sulfonic acid group]
The sulfonic acid group-containing amphoteric water-soluble polymer can be obtained by copolymerizing a water-soluble cationic monomer, a sulfonic acid group-containing water-soluble anionic monomer, and another monomer.
As a copolymerization method, for example, a monomer reaction solution containing a monomer to be copolymerized is prepared, and an initiator that generates radicals by heat such as a redox initiator and an azo-based initiator is used. An aqueous solution adiabatic polymerization method in which a body reaction solution is copolymerized. Moreover, the aqueous solution photopolymerization method which makes a monomer reaction liquid before superposition | polymerization a uniform sheet form, irradiates visible light or ultraviolet light using a photoinitiator, and performs copolymerization is mentioned. Among these, the aqueous solution photopolymerization method is preferable. In the aqueous solution photopolymerization method, a water-containing gel-like copolymer (that is, a water-containing sulfonic acid group-containing amphoteric water-soluble polymer compound) is usually obtained when the copolymerization is completed.

光開始剤としては、例えば、2−ヒドロキシ−2−メチル−1−フェニル−1−プロパノン(チバ(Ciba)社製、ダロキュア(DAROCUR)1173)などが挙げられる。
光開始剤の添加量は、単量体反応液100質量部に対して0.001〜0.1質量部であることが好ましい。光開始剤の添加量が0.001質量部以上であれば、充分な共重合速度および共重合率を確保でき、生産性および品質を向上させることができる。また、光開始剤の添加量が0.1質量部以下であれば、共重合反応の暴走および共重合体の品質低下を防止できる。
Examples of the photoinitiator include 2-hydroxy-2-methyl-1-phenyl-1-propanone (manufactured by Ciba, DAROCUR 1173).
It is preferable that the addition amount of a photoinitiator is 0.001-0.1 mass part with respect to 100 mass parts of monomer reaction liquid. If the addition amount of the photoinitiator is 0.001 part by mass or more, a sufficient copolymerization rate and copolymerization rate can be secured, and productivity and quality can be improved. Moreover, if the addition amount of a photoinitiator is 0.1 mass part or less, runaway of a copolymerization reaction and deterioration of the quality of a copolymer can be prevented.

また、共重合を行う際には、必要に応じて連鎖移動剤を添加してもよい。連鎖移動剤としては、例えば、次亜リン酸、ホスホン酸などが挙げられる。これらの中でも、連鎖移動させやすいことから、ホスホン酸が好ましい。連鎖移動剤の添加量は、単量体反応液100質量部に対して、0.001〜1質量部が好ましい。連鎖移動剤の添加量が0.001質量部以上であれば、スルホン酸基含有両性水溶性高分子を水に溶かした際に水に不溶性の架橋した共重合体の発生を抑制できる。また、連鎖移動剤の添加量が1質量部以下であれば、充分な分子量を確保できるため、特に高分子量を必要とする高分子凝集剤用途において充分な凝集脱水性が得られる。
なお、水に不溶性の架橋した共重合体の発生量は、スルホン酸基含有両性水溶性高分子水溶液を、例えば、直径20cm、80メッシュの篩で濾過し、篩の上に残った不溶解分を定量することにより求めることができる。
Moreover, when performing copolymerization, you may add a chain transfer agent as needed. Examples of the chain transfer agent include hypophosphorous acid and phosphonic acid. Among these, phosphonic acid is preferable because it is easily chain-transferred. The addition amount of the chain transfer agent is preferably 0.001 to 1 part by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the monomer reaction solution. When the addition amount of the chain transfer agent is 0.001 part by mass or more, generation of a water-insoluble crosslinked copolymer can be suppressed when the sulfonic acid group-containing amphoteric water-soluble polymer is dissolved in water. In addition, when the amount of the chain transfer agent added is 1 part by mass or less, a sufficient molecular weight can be ensured, so that sufficient aggregation and dehydrating properties can be obtained particularly in the use of a polymer flocculant requiring a high molecular weight.
The amount of the crosslinked copolymer insoluble in water is determined by the amount of insoluble matter remaining on the sieve after the sulfonic acid group-containing amphoteric water-soluble polymer aqueous solution is filtered through, for example, a sieve having a diameter of 20 cm and 80 mesh. Can be determined by quantifying

[無機塩]
無機塩は、水溶性の無機塩であり、炭素を含まない酸と塩基の中和反応によって生じる化合物、および、炭酸塩、シアン酸塩、チオシアン酸塩のような炭素を含んだ単純構造の炭素化合物である。

The sulfonic acid group-containing amphoteric water-soluble polymer is a salt when an aqueous solution dissolved in water at a concentration of 0.5% by mass (hereinafter, the aqueous solution of the sulfonic acid group-containing amphoteric water-soluble polymer is referred to as “polymer aqueous solution”). The viscosity is usually 5 to 200 mPa · s, preferably 10 to 100 mPa · s. If the salt viscosity is 0.5 mPa · s or more when a 0.5% by mass polymer aqueous solution is used, sufficient cohesiveness can be obtained particularly in a polymer flocculant application requiring high viscosity. In addition, if the salt viscosity when the 0.5 mass% polymer aqueous solution is 200 mPa · s or less, the water-insoluble crosslinked copolymer when the sulfonic acid group-containing amphoteric water-soluble polymer is dissolved in water is used. Generation can be suppressed.
Here, the salt viscosity is a value obtained by dissolving a sulfonic acid group-containing amphoteric water-soluble polymer in an aqueous solution containing 0.1 to 100 times by mass inorganic salt with respect to the sulfonic acid group-containing amphoteric water-soluble polymer. It is the viscosity at 25 ° C. measured with a B-type viscometer when a 5% by mass polymer aqueous solution is obtained. The order of dissolving the sulfonic acid group-containing amphoteric water-soluble polymer and the inorganic salt in water is not particularly limited, and the sulfonic acid group-containing amphoteric water-soluble polymer may be dissolved in water first, You may melt | dissolve in water previously. Alternatively, the sulfonic acid group-containing amphoteric water-soluble polymer and the inorganic salt may be simultaneously dissolved in water. Furthermore, for convenience, when the sulfonic acid group-containing amphoteric water-soluble polymer is in a powder form, it may be mixed in advance with an inorganic salt and powder and dissolved in water.

例えば、分子量を高くする程、イオン性の割合を低くする程、塩粘度の値が増加する傾向にある。一方、分子量を低くする程、イオン性の割合を高くする程、塩粘度の値が減少する傾向にある。
The salt viscosity of the sulfonic acid group-containing amphoteric water-soluble polymer is adjusted by adjusting the molecular weight, ionic ratio, molecular weight distribution, production method, composition distribution, hydrophilicity / hydrophobicity degree, etc. of the sulfonic acid group-containing amphoteric water-soluble polymer. Can be controlled.
For example, the value of salt viscosity tends to increase as the molecular weight increases or the ionic ratio decreases. On the other hand, the lower the molecular weight, the higher the ionic ratio, the lower the value of salt viscosity.

請求項1に規定した組成のスルホン酸基含有両性水溶性高分子および無機塩が水に溶解された実施例の水溶性高分子水溶液では、塩粘度が適度なものとなり、不溶解分量が少なかった。
これに対し、スルホン酸基含有水溶性アニオン性単量体単位が50モル%を超えていた比較例1,2では、無機塩存在下で水溶性高分子が全く溶解しないか、溶解量が少なかった。すなわち、不溶解量が多かった。
In the water-soluble polymer aqueous solution of the example in which the sulfonic acid group-containing amphoteric water-soluble polymer having the composition defined in claim 1 and the inorganic salt were dissolved in water, the salt viscosity was appropriate and the insoluble content was small. .
On the other hand, in Comparative Examples 1 and 2 in which the sulfonic acid group-containing water-soluble anionic monomer unit exceeded 50 mol%, the water-soluble polymer was not dissolved at all in the presence of the inorganic salt, or the amount dissolved was small. It was. That is, the insoluble amount was large.

さらには、表6〜表10より、無機塩量により各水溶性高分子の0.5%塩粘度値は異なり、その添加量が多いほどその値は小さくなる傾向にあることが分かった。また、無機塩の種類によらず、添加量が同じであれば、0.5%塩粘度の値はほぼ同じであった。
表6〜表10より、無機塩量により各水溶性高分子の0.5%不溶解分量は異なり、その添加量が多いほどその量は小さくなる傾向にあることが分かった。また、無機塩の種類によって0.5%不溶解分量は異なり、塩化ナトリウムを用いたときに不溶解分量が最も少ないことが分かった。
Furthermore, from Tables 6 to 10, it was found that the 0.5% salt viscosity value of each water-soluble polymer differs depending on the amount of inorganic salt, and the value tends to decrease as the amount added increases. In addition, regardless of the kind of inorganic salt, if the addition amount was the same, the value of 0.5% salt viscosity was almost the same.
From Table 6 to Table 10, it was found that the amount of 0.5% insoluble matter of each water-soluble polymer varies depending on the amount of inorganic salt, and the amount tends to decrease as the amount added increases. In addition, the amount of 0.5% insoluble matter differs depending on the type of inorganic salt, and it was found that the amount of insoluble matter was the smallest when sodium chloride was used.
