Use | Used as the main plasticizer of plastics, widely used in polyvinyl chloride products It can be used as a substitute for DOP, especially suitable for plasticized paste, Good viscosity stability Used as gas chromatography fixative, plasticizer Used as cold-resistant plasticizer This product is the most widely used plasticizer, in addition to cellulose acetate and polyethylene acetate, it has good compatibility with synthetic resins and rubbers used in most industries. This product has good comprehensive performance, good mixing performance, high plasticizing efficiency, low volatility, good low temperature flexibility, water extraction resistance, high electrical performance, good heat resistance and weather resistance. As a main plasticizer, this product is widely used in the processing of various soft PVC products, such as films, sheets, artificial leather, cable materials and molded products. The product is non-toxic and can be used for packaging materials in contact with food, but it is not suitable for fatty food packaging materials because it is easy to be extracted from fat. It can also be used for nitrocellulose paint to make the paint film have elastic high tensile strength. In a variety of synthetic rubbers, this product also has a good softening effect. In addition, DOP is also used as a condensing agent, antiwear agent, organic solvent, and gas chromatography fixative. gas chromatography stationary solution (the highest service temperature is 150 ℃, the solvent is methanol main and dichloromethane) selectively retains and separates aromatic compounds, unsaturated compounds, various oxides (alcohols, aldehydes, ketones and esters, etc.) and plasticizers. |
production method | the amount of plasticizer is large and there are many varieties. At present, the development trend of plasticizer production technology is, on the one hand, the continuous large-scale production of the main plasticizer, on the other hand, the multi-variety, small-batch intermittent production of special plasticizers. The consumption of phthalate plasticizers accounts for about 80% of the total amount of plasticizers, and the production volume is very large, so there is a continuous large-scale production centered on dioctyl phthalate. Phthalic acid esters are industrially prepared by esterification of phthalic anhydride and corresponding alcohols in the presence of acidic catalysts such as sulfuric acid and p-toluenesulfonic acid. The amount of acidic catalyst is generally 0.2-0.5% based on phthalic anhydride. The esterification reaction is carried out by phthalic anhydride and 2-ethylhexanol (isooctanol) under the catalysis of sulfuric acid or titanate, stannous oxide, aluminate and other non-acidic catalysts. The esterification liquid is neutralized, washed with water, and The finished product is obtained by alcohol removal, decolorization and pressure filtration. Raw material consumption quota: phthalic anhydride 383kg/t, 2-ethylhexanol (95%)671kg/t, sulfuric acid 6kg/t, soda ash 10kg/t. |
