use | terephthaloyl chloride and isophthaloyl chloride have many similar uses, and are also raw materials for polymers such as polyamide and polyester. As a heat-resistant flame-retardant fiber, wholly aromatic polyamide fiber has attracted widespread attention. The product is also used as an intermediate for pesticides, medicines, dyes, pigments, ultraviolet absorbers, and cross-linking agents. It is a monomer for synthetic special fibers, which can be used as a reinforcing agent for aramid and nylon, and can also be used as a raw material for organic synthesis |
production methods | include thionyl chloride method, phosphorus pentachloride method, phosgene method, acid chloride method and ester chloride method. 1. The thionyl chloride method is to mix terephthalic acid and thionyl chloride, reflux at 80 ℃ for 10-12h, then evaporate thionyl chloride, and distill the crude product under reduced pressure to obtain the finished product. 2. The acid chlorination method is to pass terephthalic acid into chlorine in the presence of phosphorus trichloride. The reaction temperature is 120-140 ℃, the reaction time is 4-5h, the conversion rate is close to 100%, and the purity of the product is above 99%. Phosphorus trichloride generates phosphorus oxychloride in the process, which can be recycled. 3. p-xylene is photocatalytic chlorination to produce p-bis (trichloromethyl) benzene, and then heated and refluxed with terephthalic acid for acyl chlorination reaction, and then adjusted to alkaline with solid sodium carbonate. After filtering out sodium chloride, the liquid is distilled under reduced pressure, and the fraction of 68-75 ℃(1.866kPa) is collected to obtain. |
