Description
DISCOLORATION OF POLISUCCINIMI fl
This invention relates to the production of polyunsaturated and more particularly to a process in which the polymer is bleached and rendered useful and applications in which the color of the succinic important..
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION ip The poliaspart co acid has become every v; ' more important in recent years as a useful polymer in areas such as water treatment, detergents, cosmetics and hair treatment. In the condensation procedures
At normal thermal reactions, an initial polysuccinimide is produced to create the polymer, which is subsequently hydrolyzed to produce a water-soluble salt such as a poliaspart ai or < Sodium It has been commonly noted in the literature, that the color of polysucchimide is greatly related to the
? D time / temperature ratio during its production. For example, the color of the product that comes from the procedures that employ a relatively longer reaction time at elevated temperature produces a succinimide of a color as dark as that produced with time.
of shorter reaction and lower temperatures. A typical teaching of this phenomenon is found in a publication entitled "Temperature on the Molecular Ueight and the Optical Purity of" flhydropolyaspart c acid Prepared by Thermal Polycondensation "by Kokufuta et al., Bulletin of the Chemical Sooiety of .apan, Vol. 51, pp. 1555-1556, 1 7 H. Many efforts have been made to decrease the time / temperature ratio by employing various types of dryers that provide greater efficiency, Recent examples include EU patent No. 5,057,597, the patent of rUPi 5,315,010 and FUn patent 5,319,145 In all of these patents dryers are used in an attempt to convert aspartic acid into polyaspartic acid by thermal condensation, however polysuccinate produced by such processes possesses an undesirable color. color of the pol i succinirnide is transferred to the water soluble salt after the hydrolysis of the initiated product. The use of acidic catalysts such as phosphoric acid reduces the color of the resulting polysuccinimide. In another attempt to overcome the color problem, it has been found that the polyaspartate formed by thermal polymerization followed by the alkaline hydrolysis is treated with bleach in water solution. It has been reported that this treatment discolours the polyaspartate sol as mentioned in the U.S. Patent. No. 5,292,864 to Wood et al. However, in many cases the polysuccinate column becomes a disadvantage since this initial product is used without first converting it into the water-soluble polysaccharide salt as was done in the aforementioned pate to Uood et al. For example, in the patent of E.U.fl. No. 5,266,237 to Freeman et al., And in Austrian patent No. Fi-14775/9, the mucosuccinic acid is added to other ingredients to form a detergent composition. The color of the polysuccinimide, particularly in detergent applications, is desirably as colorless as possible. Thus, the method for decolorizing the water solution of the s l is not useful for preparing desirable compositions of the aforementioned patent to Freeman et al., Which incorporates succinimide. Consequently, a procedure is necessary for the discoloration of the polisucci mm da.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
In accordance with this invention, the color of the polysuccinimide is reduced by treating the water soluble polysuccess with a bleach. Although the color of the polysuccimide produced by the usual condensation of the aspartic acid from light cinnamon to dark brown, the process of this invention reduces the color of the polychromimide to a whitish color which is advantageous to use directly on detergent compositions Briefly, polysuccinimi da is reduced in water
which contains an oxygen bleach at approximately 1% concentration. The mixture is stirred briefly while reducing the color of the water-insoluble succimer particles. The solid polymer is recovered by conventional means. It has surprisingly been found that the amount of color in the hydrolysed polysaccharide salt is also reduced by indicating that the color of the surface is a surface phenomenon easily treated with bleach.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
In accordance with this invention, a method is provided to reduce the color of the polysuccinic acid by contacting the poly succinicide with an aqueous solution of a bleach. Typical bleaches include the preferred hydrogen peroxide, also sodium hypochlorite, ozone,
peroxydicarbonate, chlorine peroxides or sulfur esters as described in the patents of F.U.A. Nos. 4,824,591 and 5,004,558, both to Dyroff and others. Surprisingly, it has been found that the treatment with non-polishable bleach, which is easily recovered from the aqueous bleaching solution since it is more soluble in water before and after the bleaching treatment. In the practice of this invention, a bleaching solution is prepared by combining a water-soluble bleach in an amount of about 0.5% to about 2% by weight. Higher concentrations of bleaching material can be used. However, no further improvement in color is expected and therefore such higher concentrations would be inefficient. Sufficient solution is employed to allow the formation of an easily stirred and fluid suspension containing the poly succinimide. The polysuccinate is left in the suspension for a sufficient time to reduce the color of the particles and is then recovered. Normally, a sufficient reduction in the color of the polysuccinolide is obtained by contacting the bleaching solution for approximately 24 hours. A contact time can be used? Na < : long or shorter depending on the amount of bleach- in the solution and the temperature used. In many cases room temperature is employed, although any suitable temperature above ambient temperature such as about 25 ° C to about 100 ° C can be employed. The recovery of the polysuccinimide can be carried out by conventional means such as filtration, centrifugation or drying. It is preferred to separate polystyrene.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED MODALITIES
EXAMPLE 1
Was it produced by the thermal condensation of acid 1 -aspart? in the presence of phosphoric acid catalyst in the amount of 15% by weight of the 1-asparatic acid. The 1-ascorbic / phosphoric acid mixture was introduced into a rotary tray dryer such as that described in the U.S. Pat. No. 5,319,145 to Pai and other < -, in which air heated to 250 ° C was continuously introduced. The residence time in the rotary tray dryer was 2.5 hours. The polysuccinirnide produced in this way has a dark reddish-brown color. The polycinimide was finally ground and divided into three samples. The first sample, I4.39 g of polysuccin tni da, was hydrolyzed by combining it with 13.93 g of 50.2% sodium hydroxide in 36.83 g of water to provide a pH on the scale of 9.8-10. The aqueous solution was clear but also of a dark reddish-brown color. The second polymer sample, 14.4 g, was hydrolysed with 13.6 g of 50.2% sodium hydroxide in 36.57 g of deionized water containing 1.56 g of 30.2% hydrogen peroxide. The color of the clear solution resulting from sodium polyaspartate was light yellow. The third polysuccinimide sample, 10.01 g, was debased with 82.43 g of deionized water containing 0. 7 g of 32% by weight hydrogen peroxide. The solution was stirred for 24 hours at room temperature. The polysuccinirnide particles were recovered by filtration and exhibited a very clear tan color.
