use | is a special chemical herbicide for corn, sugarcane, sorghum and other places. it is used for weeding before and after sprouting of various crops triazine, selective internal absorption conductivity, herbicide before and after seedling. It is used to control annual gramineous weeds and broadleaf weeds in corn, sorghum, sugar cane, tea trees and orchard woodlands. It has an inhibitory effect on perennial weeds propagated by rhizomes or root shoots. For example, it is used for weeding in corn fields, 37.5~60g/100 m2 in northeast China and 15~30g/100 m2 in Hebei and Shandong provinces. 30~53g/100 m2 for weeding in sorghum fields; For weeding in apple and pear orchards, 60~75g/100 m2; For weeding in tea gardens, the dosage of 23~37.5g/100m2 depends on the content of soil organic matter, weed species and density. Beans are sensitive to drugs and are prone to phytotoxicity. is a selective herbicide, and its application scope is the same as that of atrazine wettable powder is a selective herbicide, which is used for weeding before and after sprouting of various crops atrazine is a selective herbicide before and after seedling. Root absorption is the main, stem and leaf absorption is very little, and it is quickly transmitted to plant meristem and leaf, which interferes with photosynthesis and kills weeds. In resistant crops such as corn, it is decomposed by corn ketase to produce non-toxic substances, so it is safe for crops. Atrazine is highly water-soluble, and its mobility in the soil is greater than that of simazine. It is easy to be leached to a deeper layer by rain, resulting in an inhibitory effect on certain deep-rooted weeds. It can be decomposed by microorganisms in the soil. The remaining period depends on the dosage of the drug, soil texture and other factors, and can last for about half a year. It is suitable for controlling annual and biennial broad-leaved weeds and monocotyledonous weeds in corn, sorghum, woodland, grassland, sugarcane, etc. Biochemical research. Used for quality assurance and quality control in environmental monitoring and analytical testing, and can also be used for instrument calibration, method verification and technical arbitration |
production method | cyanuric chloride reacts with ethylamine and isopropylamine in alkaline medium in two steps to replace two chlorine atoms to generate atrazine. Raw material consumption quota: cyanuric chloride 950kg/t, isopropylamine 380kg/t, monoethylamine 250kg/t. preparation of cyanuric chloride cyanuric chloride is an important intermediate in the synthesis of triazobenzene herbicides. Its synthesis includes two-step reactions of chlorination and polymerization. The reaction formula is as follows. HCN Cl2 → CNCl HCl3CNCl [Catalyst] →(CNCl)3 The production process of cyanuric chloride from DuPont Company in the United States is as follows: chlorine and hydrocyanic acid enter in the lower half of the reaction tower according to a certain ratio (excess chlorine), low-pressure steam is introduced at the bottom of the tower, low-temperature water is entered at the top of the tower according to regulations, chlorine and hydrocyanic acid generate cyanuric chloride and hydrogen chloride in the tower, cyanuric chloride is obtained from the tower item, and dilute hydrochloric acid is continuously discharged from the bottom, the content is about 4% and sent to the factory wastewater station for treatment. Chloride cyanide and excess chlorine at the top of the tower are dried by calcium chloride and molecular sieve (water content <10mg/L) and sent to the polymerization reactor. The reactor is a vertical fixed bed. The catalyst may be activated carbon (structure, catalyst, reaction conditions are patented), and the life span is generally 3 months. However, the waste catalyst is changed once a month according to the production regulations, and the waste catalyst is sent to the incinerator for burning. It is said that the method of changing the catalyst is very convenient. The cyanuric chloride obtained after polymerization is sent to the next washing tower, washed with a solvent (may be heavy aromatic hydrocarbons, requiring low volatility), and then stored in a storage tank for the synthesis of triazobenzene herbicide. After absorption, a part of the exhaust gas is emptied according to the analysis, and most of it is circulated to the previous cyanogen reaction tower. The emptied exhaust gas is washed in the exhaust gas washing tower with lye and sodium hypochlorite. The chlorination reaction tower is a φ1m × 20m high nickel steel reactor, the trimerization reactor is a φ2m × 6m high nickel steel reactor, and the tail gas treatment tower is a φ2m × 20m packed tower. The synthesis of atrazine uses water-chlorobenzene as a solvent. After mixing cyanuric chloride with the solvent, the temperature is dropped to 15 ℃, the measured ethylamine is added dropwise, the temperature rises by itself, the 50% amount of liquid alkali is added, and the reaction is carried out at 15~20 ℃ for 30min. Then the metered isopropylamine and the rest of the liquid alkali are added dropwise, and the reaction is carried out at 30~40 ℃ for 2 hours. Chlorobenzene and water are evaporated by water vapor distillation, and chlorobenzene is recovered by separation and drying. The internal medicine material in the kettle is cooled, centrifuged, and washed with water before drying, which is the raw material. CA110:212860 reported the production method of atrazine as follows: in the presence of surfactant, cyanuric chloride (C3N3Cl3) reacts with ethylamine, isopropylamine and sodium hydroxide in hydrolysate or aqueous solution containing alkali metal chloride. The specific operation is as follows: 30g of mixture of cyanuric chloride and 250mL of water reacts with 0.1mL Slovanik T 610 (ethylene oxide/propylene oxide copolymer) at 5 ℃, and then reacts with 50mL of 20.0% isopropylamine, after 30min, it reacts with 55mL 10% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution at 5~10 ℃. After 50min, the mixture reacts with 21.5mL 39% ethylamine aqueous solution and after 40 minutes, it reacts with 50mL 10.1% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution. After 50min, the product is filtered, washed and dried to obtain 33.1g of product. Atrazine 97.1%, Seimazin 1.6%, extinguish Jin 0.9%. |
