Background technology
Organic isocyanate is a kind of important organic intermediate, is widely used in the industry such as polyurethane, coating, dyestuff.Isocyanates mainly contains: toluene di-isocyanate(TDI) (TDI), methyl diphenylene diisocyanate (MDI), poly-methyl polyphenyl isocyanates (PAPI) and benzene isocyanates (PI) etc.The production of organic isocyanate can be divided into phosgenation and two kinds of routes of non-phosgene, and wherein industrial production promptly prepares isocyanates with corresponding amine and phosgene reaction based on light phosgenation.
The method that light phosgenation is produced isocyanates can be divided into two kinds of gas phase phosgenation method and liquid phase light phosgenations.Disclosed at present gas phase phosgenation method patent is a lot, as WO2007014936, and CN1458150A, CN101372463A, CN1425647A, US20050113601A1, US20080146834A1, US2003216597A1, CA2258194A etc.The characteristics of vapor phase method are that the time of staying of reactant in reactor is short, but reactant need be heated to the temperature more than the boiling point of reactant, different according to pressure and the amine that is adopted, 200 ℃~600 ℃ of reaction temperature selections.
The liquid phase light phosgenation is the method that present commercial Application prepares TDI the most widely, and the key reaction that wherein comprises has:
(1) cold light gasification
(2) hot phosgenation
(3) side reaction have between the product TDI polymerization and with the reaction of toluenediamine, reaction equation is
Cold light gasification reaction (1) has very fast reaction rate, and promptly can carry out under lower reaction temperature.And the reaction (3) of the further reaction (2) of intermediate product amido hydrochloride that generates and phosgene and two amido formyl chlorides decomposition generation isocyanates and hydrogen chloride is slower, thereby need carry out under higher reaction temperature.The accessory substance that side reaction (4) generates is a solid toughness material, and growing amount can cause the obstruction of reactor for a long time, and production can't be carried out.For this reason, the two-step methods that adopt are carried out the preparation of isocyanates more in the disclosed patent, as CN1194962C, CA813928A, CN101100447A, US20070299279A1, US2007012577A1 etc., the advantage of two-step method is and can in the first step amine be consumed fully as much as possible, reduces the chance of accessory substances such as isocyanates and amine reaction generation urea in second step.
In the preparation process of organic isocyanate, first step gasification reaction speed is big, and therefore mixing rate and the effect of two kinds of reaction raw materials in first step phosgenation reactor is most important, and it is directly connected to the selectivity of isocyanates and the stability of operation.The reactor of first step phosgenation reaction is the blender of two strands of reaction masses.Mainly comprise: dynamic mixer (as stirred tank reactor, stator-rotor reaction device etc.) and static mixer (as injection reactor, impact flow reactor etc.).The reactor that carries out the second step photochemical reaction mainly contains tower reactor, tubular reactor etc.
Chinese patent CN1304927A discloses the method and the reactor of a kind of a kind of toluene di-isocyanate(TDI) of preparation (TDI): adopt injection reactor to finish the rapid mixing and the first step photochemical reaction of material, wherein liquid phosgene of first strand of material or the toluenediamine solution that is dissolved in solvent enter blender after rotary atomizer is atomized into drop, and another strand material be dissolved in the toluenediamine solution of solvent or phosgene by the annular space of reactor spray enter and with first burst of material high-speed mixing, this injection reactor has special striker structure, this patent thinks that there is not blocking problem in the employing nozzle, but this structure is comparatively complicated.The reaction mass that comes out to finish first step photochemical reaction from injection reactor enters and carries out the second step photochemical reaction the tower reactor and reclaim excessive phosgene.
Chinese patent CN1830540A discloses a kind of liquid film colliding type jet reactor, this injection reactor comprises two reaction mixed zones, wherein the fluid more than two strands or two strands is to clash into and rapid mixing and reaction behind the liquid film that forms of several millimeters slit by thickness in first mixed zone, and unmixed material completely carries out further mixing and reaction in second mixed zone in first mixed zone.This patent is not described the effect that this reactor is used for isocyanates production.
World patent WO2009002900-A3 discloses a kind of method for preparing toluene di-isocyanate(TDI) (TDI), this method adopt High shear device with the gaseous phosgene high degree of dispersion in liquid toluenediamine, formed phosgene bubble diameter can reach micron or submicron order, dispersion liquid further reacts subsequently and prepares toluene di-isocyanate(TDI) (TDI), and disclosed high-shear device is a kind of one or more levels rotor-stator system.Adopt this method,, may be difficult to avoid the generation of accessory substance such as urea etc. owing to inevitably exist localized hyperthermia in the mixed process.
U.S. Pat 3226410, US5117048 and Chinese patent application CN101209405A disclose hole jet type injecting reactor respectively, the principal character of reactor is to open some holes on the inner sleeve circumference, polyamines solution enters in the inner sleeve by the hole, and mixes with the phosgene that flows by inner sleeve.Difference is the circular inner sleeve that US3226410 adopts, and CN101209405A has then adopted the inner sleeve of rectangle or approximate rectangular structure, and both compare the latter and have littler enlarge-effect.The inner sleeve that US5117048 adopts is similar to Venturi tube, the effect when mixing to improve.Above-mentioned mixed method can not reach good mixed effect, and accessory substance may take place stop up the duct.
In sum, existing method is produced the subject matter that exists in the process of toluene di-isocyanate(TDI), and to be that accessory substance generates inevitable, reactor have potential obstruction may and enlarge-effect big etc.
