| overview | the process of preparing ethylene from high-temperature cracking of oil-based raw materials will produce C5 fraction and C9 fraction by-products. the yield and composition vary with the type of cracking raw materials, cracking depth and process conditions. Cyclopentadiene can be obtained after C5 fraction and C9 fraction are separated. The process of separating cyclopentadiene from cracking C5 and C9 is relatively simple, and the heating dimerization method is commonly used. Cyclopentadiene self-polymerates at room temperature to form dicyclopentadiene. Cyclopentadiene is obtained by heating dicyclopentadiene before use. Therefore, the commodity on the market is dicyclopentadiene. |
| use | cyclopentadiene is used in pesticides to synthesize the insecticide chlordane, endosulfan intermediate tetrachlorocyclopentane, and can also be used to produce the insecticide The intermediate of imidacloprid, in addition, it is mainly used in the resin industry, synthetic rubber, etc. Mainly used for petroleum resin and synthetic rubber. Ethylene propylene rubber was synthesized with cyclopentadiene as the third monomer. Cyclopentadiene is active in nature and has become more and more important as a raw material for organic synthesis industry. The main routes are as follows. 1. Application of cyclopentadiene polymerization reaction Cyclopentadiene can synthesize dicyclopentadiene, tricyclopentadiene, tetra or pentacyclopentadiene and other polymers, of which dicyclopentadiene is the most useful. It is the third monomer of a variety of synthetic rubber and ethylene propylene rubber (EpDM). Cyclopentadiene and dicyclopentadiene are thermally polymerized to produce petroleum resins, which are used for tackifiers, plasticizers, coatings, preservatives and inks. 2. Application of Cyclopentadiene Addition Reaction Cyclopentadiene Selective Hydrogenation to Cyclopentene is the main method for industrial production of cyclopentene. 3. Application of diene addition reaction Cyclopentadiene is extremely easy to undergo Diels-Alder diene addition reaction with olefins, usually forming bicyclo [2.2.1] heptene derivatives. Cyclopentadiene can be converted by diene addition to produce many useful derivatives. For example, cyclopentadiene and ethylene are added to form norbornene; react with butadiene to form 5-vinyl-2-norbornene (VNB), and then translocation to form 5-ethyl-2-norbornene (ENB); react with m-pentadiene to form 5-propenyl-2-norbornene (PNB); react with maleic anhydride to form bicyclo [2.2.1] hept-5-en-2, 3-dicarboxylic acid anhydride (norbornadiic anhydride). In addition, cyclopentadiene reacts with propylene, acrylonitrile, and isoprene to obtain 5-methyl-2-norbornene, 5-cyano-2-norbornene, and 5-Or 6-methyltetrahydroindene are all monomers of synthetic resins. 4. The use of halogenation reaction halogen and halohydric acid can be quickly added to the unsaturated double bond of cyclopentadiene to produce many derivatives, such as hexachlorocyclopentadiene has great industrial value and is a synthetic pesticide aldrin, dieldrin, chlordane, endosulfan, Dabanke, Caoxanjiang, mirommet, carbochlorin, heptachlor and other pesticide raw materials. 5. The role of condensation reaction The methylene group in cyclopentadiene is very active and can be condensed with various aldehydes, ketones, etc. to form a large number of derivatives. Dimethylmethylene formed by the reaction of acetone and cyclopentadiene can be copolymerized with butadiene to prepare rubber. 6. Application of oxidation reaction In industry, maleic anhydride is prepared by gas phase catalytic oxidation of cyclopentadiene or a mixture containing cyclopentadiene. 7. Synthesis of isocyanate compounds cyclopentadiene and acrylonitrile addition to produce 2-cyanonorbornene, and then through carboxyl synthesis and other reactions to prepare diisocyanate compounds. They are all raw materials for polyurethane plastics. 8. Synthetic polyol compound dicyclopentadiene is synthesized by carboxyl group to obtain dialdehyde, and then hydrogenated to obtain diol. It can be used in polyurethane production, such as as plasticizer. Thermoplastic polyurethane can be produced by reacting with toluene diisocyanate and adipic acid. The polyol prepared by the addition reaction of hexachlorocyclopentadiene and diacetylcyclopentene reacts with 4,4 'diisocyanate diphenylmethane to form a polymer with excellent impact thermal stability. 9. Synthesis of sandalwood alcohol β-sandalwood alcohol can be prepared from cyclopentadiene. In addition, cyclopentadiene and bromocrotonic acid can also be used as raw materials to produce β-sandalwood alcohol through a series of reactions. Beta-sandalwood alcohol is one of the precious spices with elegant aroma and lasting fragrance. 10. Synthesis of high-energy hydrocarbon fuels with high specific gravity due to the high density of dicyclopentadiene and cyclopentadiene, which produces high calorific value during combustion, makes it an excellent high-energy fuel. |
| production method | industrial cyclopentadiene mainly comes from the pre-benzene fraction of crude benzene obtained from coal coking process and C5 fraction of by-product of hydrocarbon cracking to ethylene. In the cracked C5 fraction, cyclopentadiene contains about 10-15%, which is the main source of cyclopentadiene. The pre-benzene fraction obtained in light benzene refining contains about 30% cyclopentadiene. Taking advantage of the easily heated dimerization of cyclopentadiene, the mixed fraction is first heated at a temperature of 100-130 ℃ to make cyclopentadiene dicyclopentadiene, and crude dicopentadiene is obtained by distillation. High-purity cyclopentadiene is obtained by high-temperature depolymerization. The synthesis method has the following methods for preparing cyclopentadiene. (1) Using cyclopentene or cyclopentane as raw material, using active oxygen aluminum (84%), chromium oxide (14%), potassium oxide 2% as catalyst, dehydrogenation at 600 ℃, 2.7-3.3kPa. (2) Cyclopentadiene is produced by dehydrogenation and cyclization of 1,4-pentadiene;(3) Cyclopentadiene is produced by dehydrogenation and cyclization of 1,3-pentadiene. the preparation method is to separate the pre-benzene fraction of coal tar to obtain the pure cyclopentadiene dimer, and the cyclopentadiene monomer is obtained by high temperature cracking and fractionation. The cyclopentadiene dimer is added to the dimer cracking kettle heated by the heat transfer oil cycle. When the kettle temperature reaches 165 ℃, the dimer pyrolysis is obviously accelerated, and the dimer is fractionated by the packed tower directly connected with the pyrolysis kettle. Cyclopentadiene is evaporated from the top of the tower, the amount of cooling water is controlled, and the fraction with the top temperature of 39~43 ℃ is collected as the required product, and the yield of cyclopentadiene is about 58%. This process is batch medium temperature cracking. If it is changed to continuous pipeline high temperature cracking, the reaction yield can reach more than 90%. |
