失活させ重合体を単離する方法が公知である。[0003] Telechelic polyisobutylene, one of the terminal functional polymers, is 1,4-bis (2-chloro-2).
It is known that it can be produced by cationic polymerization of isobutylene using (-propyl) benzene as an initiator and chain transfer agent and boron trichloride as a Lewis acid catalyst (U.S. Pat.
394). The Lewis acid catalyst used in the cationic polymerization, if left in the polymer, causes corrosion and generation of an acid. Therefore, after the polymerization, the Lewis acid catalyst must be deactivated or removed by an appropriate method.

It has long been known that poorly-emulsified emulsions are formed at the oil-water interface. Numerous patent applications have been filed for temperature conditions during catalyst deactivation and various additives (acids, alcohols, amines, alkaline earth metal salts, surfactants, etc.), all of which reduce the amount of emulsion generated. Although it has a certain effect, it is difficult to completely eliminate it.

When the Lewis acid used in the polymerization reaction to obtain the isobutylene-based polymer is deactivated with acidic or alkaline water, most of the Lewis acid is decomposed and sedimented or extracted to the aqueous layer side, and the oily layer side (polymer solution side) Removed. However, decomposition residues (hereinafter referred to as scum) often remain in the polymer solution and have various adverse effects.

It is known that it contains a large amount of halogen. Such scum is usually composed of very small particles, sedimentation by gravity is very slow, and it is difficult to make the supernatant completely transparent even by centrifugation. Filtration is a practical method for removing scum, but JISNo. 2 There is a problem that filter paper (manufactured by Toyo Roshi Co., Ltd.) is clogged or passed. Attempts have been made to use filter paper with small openings or to repeat the filtration in multiple stages, but the process was complicated and it was difficult to obtain a clear polymer solution by a simple method.

Solid carbons are removed by a method such as filtration, centrifugation, or sedimentation, and if necessary, water is added to obtain a target clear polymer solution. When the solvent is distilled off from the clear polymer solution thus obtained, an isobutylene-based polymer with few impurities can be obtained.

減圧留去し、無色透明なポリイソブチレンを得た。The present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the following examples, but the present invention is not limited to these examples. Analyzer 1 (trace chlorine measuring device) To measure a trace amount of chlorine, a trace chlorine measuring device TOX-10 sigma type manufactured by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation was used. This apparatus burns and decomposes a sample in a mixed gas stream of argon / oxygen in a quartz tube, guides the generated hydrogen chloride to a titration cell equipped with a silver / silver chloride electrode, and performs a redox titration by a coulometric method. In the measurement of trace chlorine shown in the following examples, 5 to 10 mg of a sample was weighed in a quartz boat, and the temperature of the combustion furnace was 900 ° C.
This is the result of the analysis. Analyzer 2 (NMR) In order to determine the unsaturated group content in the isobutylene-based polymer, an NMR apparatus Gemini-300 manufactured by Varian Inc. was used.
The measurement was performed using carbon tetrachloride containing a small amount of heavy acetone as a solvent. The amount of unsaturated groups per polymer molecule was determined as follows. 1) The integrated intensity of the aromatic ring component appearing at around 7.2 ppm was obtained, and the result was divided by 4 to obtain N Ar . 2) determine the integrated intensity of the unsaturated bond-terminated near 4.9~5.0Ppm, those which were divided by 2 to N v. The unsaturated group content Fn (v) is defined as Fn (v) = N v / N Ar . Production Example 1 (Production of Polymer Solution) After sufficiently drying and purging with nitrogen with a 2 L glass separable flask equipped with a mechanical stirrer, 787.5 mL of toluene, 262.5 mL of ethylcyclohexane, and 267.5 mL of ethylcyclohexane previously dehydrated with Molecular Sieves 3A were used. 4-bis (2

0.7158 g of picoline was charged. The separable flask was cooled to -70 ° C, and 438 mL of the isobutylene monomer measured in a separate container was transferred here. While flowing nitrogen gas little by little through a three-way cock, 18.3 g of titanium tetrachloride was added using a dried syringe to initiate polymerization. After continuing stirring for 3 hours, 7.20 g of allyltrimethylsilane was added and the reaction was continued for another hour at the same temperature to obtain a telechelic polyisobutylene polymer solution having allyl groups at both ends. Hereinafter, the polymer solution obtained in this Production Example is referred to as Polymer Solution 1, and the polymer after distilling off the solvent is referred to as Polymer 1. Production Example 2 (Production of Polymer) The containers used for production were changed to those made of SUS316L,
A polymer solution was obtained in the same manner as in Production Example 1 except that the production scale was increased. The solvent was distilled off using a thin film evaporator to obtain a slightly pale yellow isobutylene-based polymer. The polymer obtained in this Production Example is hereinafter simply referred to as Polymer 2. Example 1 (Solid-liquid contact) A 5 L separable flask equipped with a stirrer containing 2 L of water was placed in 7
The temperature of the solution was adjusted to 0 ° C., and the whole amount of the cooled polymer solution 1 was charged with vigorous stirring. After stirring was continued at 70 ° C. for 30 minutes, the aqueous layer was removed by decantation, and the polymer solution was washed twice with 2 L of deionized water. 2.0 g of carbon black (# 10B manufactured by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation, having a particle size of 84 μm according to a catalog and a BET specific surface area of 28 m 2 / g) was added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes.
