【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、モノグリセライド含量が高いモノグリセライド含有組成物の製造方法に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
化粧品、食品、工業用の乳化剤あるいは潤滑油の油性剤等として広く使用されているモノグリセライドは、グリセリンと脂肪酸とのエステル化反応、あるいはグリセリンと油脂とのエステル交換反応により製造される。これらの反応は、無触媒又は触媒存在下で行われるが、一般に、グリセリン、モノグリセライド、ジグリセライド及びトリグリセライドの混合物が生じる。反応系は、通常、不均一系で、生成するモノグリセライド量は、脂肪酸相あるいは生成エステル相へのグリセリンの溶解度に影響されるため、単純に仕込みのグリセリン量を増やしてもモノグリセライド含量を上げることはできない。このため、より性能の高い、すなわち、高純度のモノグリセライドを得たい場合には、分子蒸留による精製が行われる。
【0003】
特許文献1及び特許文献2には、5〜15%の含水グリセリンを用いて、無触媒で油脂とのエステル交換反応を促進させる方法が開示されているが、水分量を保持するために系が加圧系になることの他、未反応の脂肪酸がかなりの量残存するという問題がある。
【0004】
また、特許文献3には、Na等のアルカリ石鹸を触媒としたエステル交換反応によってグリセリンと油脂からモノグリセライドを製造する方法が開示されているが、反応後、未反応のグリセリンを蒸留で除く場合、逆反応によってモノグリセライド含量の低下が起こるのを押さえるために予め高温でアルカリ分を中和しなければならないということの他、濾過によっても分離できない中和塩が生成物中に残存するという問題がある。
【0005】
そして、特許文献4には、グリセリン又はエチレングリコールと、脂肪酸又はグリセリンポリエステルを、鉄をはじめとする特定の遷移金属触媒の存在下に高温で反応させ、モノグリセライドを製造する方法が開示されているが、触媒の中和は必要でないものの、使用量が金属として80〜1700ppmであることから、そのままでは不溶分が多くて使用し難く、また、グリセリンを蒸留で除く際にも逆反応によるモノグリセライド含量の低下が促進されることから、予め、冷却後、ろ過又はデカンテーションで触媒を分離しておかなければならないという問題がある。しかも、ろ過ではグリセリンが残存した状態では、ろ過速度が遅く、デカンテーションでは収率が悪いという問題がある。また、蒸留によって未反応グリセリンを除く場合には、再び加熱しなければならないという工程的にも好ましくない点がある。

【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明の課題は、分子蒸留器等の高価な濃縮装置や、特殊な高速回転撹拌剪断機を用いずに、グリセリンと、脂肪酸又はグリセリンエステルとから、モノグリセライド含量が高いモノグリセライド含有組成物を製造する方法を提供することにある。

【0009】

【0012】
本発明に用いられるグリセリンエステルとしては、上記脂肪酸とグリセリンを構成成分とするトリエステル、ジエステル及びそれらの混合物が挙げられる。また、モノエステルが含まれていても構わない。
【0013】
本発明において、グリセリンとアシル基を有する化合物との反応割合は、モノグリセライド含量の高いモノグリセライド含有組成物を得、また1バッチ当たりの生産性を上げる観点から、アシル基を有する化合物のアシル基1モルに対し、グリセリン1モル以上が好ましく、1〜3モルが更に好ましく、1.5〜3モルが特に好ましい。
【0014】
本発明に用いられる鉄、コバルト及びマンガンから選ばれる少なくとも1種の金属を含む触媒としては、鉄、コバルト又はマンガンから選ばれる金属単体、又はその化合物が挙げられる。具体的には、鉄を含む触媒としては、還元鉄単体、三二酸化鉄(Fe2O3)、四三酸化鉄(Fe3O4)、水酸化鉄(FeOOH)等の酸化物及び水酸化物、酢酸鉄、プロピオン酸鉄、ステアリン酸鉄、オレイン酸鉄等の金属石鹸、塩化鉄(II)、塩化鉄(III)等の塩化物等を挙げることができる。コバルトを含む触媒としては、コバルト単体、一酸化コバルト(CoO)、四三酸化コバルト(Co3O4)、炭酸コバルト、ステアリン酸コバルト、塩化コバルト(II)等を挙げることができる。マンガンを含む触媒としては、マンガン単体、二酸化マンガン、四三酸化マンガン、ステアリン酸マンガン等を挙げることができる。触媒活性、取り扱い性、入手性の点から鉄を含む触媒が好ましく、特に水酸化鉄が好ましい。触媒の使用量は、反応時間の短縮、濾過負担の軽減等の観点から、金属として0.1〜60ppmであり、0.5〜10ppmが好ましく、0.5〜5ppmがさらに好ましい。
【0015】
本発明においては、モノグリセライド含量を高め、また遊離の脂肪酸量を低減させる観点から、グリセリンと脂肪酸との反応で脂肪酸基準の反応率(下記式(I)で表される)が90%以上に達して、エステル化反応に比べエステル交換反応が支配的になった後、あるいはグリセリンとグリセリンエステルとのエステル交換反応の際に、反応系内の水分量を、500〜5000ppm、更に600〜3000ppmに保持するように制御する工程を有することが好ましい。水分量の制御は、水分計を使用して反応液の水分量を経時的に測定しながら、反応槽への窒素等の不活性ガスの導入量を調整する方法で行うことができる。
【0016】
【数1】
【0017】
グリセリンとアシル基を有する化合物との反応の温度は、油層へのグリセリンの溶解度を向上させると共に、エステル化反応及びエステル交換反応速度を向上させる観点から180℃以上が好ましく、副生成物であるジグリセリンの生成を抑制する観点から270℃以下が好ましい。具体的には180〜270℃が好ましく、さらに好ましくは200〜260℃、最も好ましくは240〜255℃である。反応時間は、高温での長時間の加熱は、グリセリンの縮合物であるジグリセリンの副生量が増えるので、温度との兼ね合いがあるものの、250℃以上では、12時間以下が好ましく、7時間以下がさらに好ましく、5時間以下が最も好ましい。
【0018】
本発明の方法で得られるモノグリセライド含量が高いモノグリセライド含有組成物は、そのまま使用することもできるが、グリセリン及び金属を含む触媒を除去しても良い。グリセリン及び金属を含む触媒を除去する場合には、生産性の観点から、金属を含む触媒の存在下でグリセリンを留去することが好ましい。即ち、グリセリンの留去前に金属を含む触媒を濾過しようとすると、濾材の耐熱性及び触媒の除去性の問題から、一旦100℃以下に冷却し触媒を濾過後、再び高温にしてグリセリンを留去しなければならないという工程上の煩雑さがあるが、本発明においてはこの煩雑さを回避できる。また、グリセリンを留去してから金属を含む触媒を濾過する方法には、濾過時に粘度の高いグリセリンが存在しないことから濾過速度が速まるという利点もある。具体的には、反応後、減圧でグリセリンを留去し、必要に応じてさらに減圧で水蒸気を供給してグリセリンを留去した後、濾過により金属を含む触媒を除去する。グリセリンの留去は、バッチ式で、又は薄膜式蒸留器を用いて連続式で行うことができる。バッチ式でグリセリンを留去する場合、温度は好ましくは200℃以下、更に好ましくは180℃以下、圧力は好ましくは53kPa以下、更に好ましくは2.7kPa以下の条件が用いられる。濾過は、所謂ゼーター電位による吸着作用を有するゼーター電位フィルターを用いて簡便に行うことができる。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a method for producing a monoglyceride-containing composition having a high monoglyceride content.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Monoglycerides widely used as cosmetics, foods, industrial emulsifiers or lubricating oils are produced by esterification reaction of glycerin and fatty acid or transesterification reaction of glycerin and fat. These reactions are carried out without a catalyst or in the presence of a catalyst, but generally a mixture of glycerin, monoglyceride, diglyceride and triglyceride is produced. The reaction system is usually a heterogeneous system, and the amount of monoglyceride produced is affected by the solubility of glycerin in the fatty acid phase or the produced ester phase, so it is not possible to increase the monoglyceride content simply by increasing the amount of glycerin charged. Can not. For this reason, when it is desired to obtain a monoglyceride having higher performance, that is, high purity, purification by molecular distillation is performed.
[0003]
Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 disclose a method of accelerating the transesterification reaction with fats and oils using 5 to 15% hydrous glycerin without using a catalyst. In addition to being a pressurized system, there is a problem that a considerable amount of unreacted fatty acid remains.
[0004]
Patent Document 3 discloses a method for producing monoglyceride from glycerin and fats and oils by transesterification using an alkali soap such as Na as a catalyst, but after the reaction, when unreacted glycerin is removed by distillation, In order to prevent the monoglyceride content from decreasing due to the reverse reaction, the alkali content must be neutralized at a high temperature in advance, and there is a problem that neutralized salts that cannot be separated by filtration remain in the product. .
[0005]
Patent Document 4 discloses a method for producing monoglyceride by reacting glycerin or ethylene glycol with a fatty acid or glycerin polyester in the presence of a specific transition metal catalyst such as iron at a high temperature. Although neutralization of the catalyst is not necessary, since the amount used is 80 to 1700 ppm as a metal, it is difficult to use as it is because there are many insolubles, and when the glycerin is removed by distillation, the monoglyceride content by reverse reaction is also present. Since the reduction is promoted, there is a problem that after cooling, the catalyst must be separated by filtration or decantation in advance. Moreover, there is a problem that the filtration rate is slow when glycerin remains in filtration, and the yield is poor in decantation. Moreover, when removing unreacted glycerol by distillation, there exists a point which is unpreferable also in the process of having to heat again.

[Problems to be solved by the invention]
An object of the present invention is to produce a monoglyceride-containing composition having a high monoglyceride content from glycerin and a fatty acid or glycerin ester without using an expensive concentrator such as a molecular distiller or a special high-speed rotary stirring shear machine. It is to provide a method.
[0008]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The present invention is a method for producing a monoglyceride-containing composition by reacting glycerin with a compound having at least one acyl group selected from fatty acids and glycerin esters, wherein at least one selected from iron, cobalt and manganese Provided is a method for producing a monoglyceride-containing composition, in which a reaction is carried out using a catalyst containing a seed metal as a metal in an amount of 0.1 to 60 ppm (weight ratio with respect to the total weight of the compound having glycerin and acyl group, hereinafter the same).
[0009]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The glycerin used in the present invention is not particularly limited, but preferably has a purity of 95% by weight or more.
[0010]
The compound having an acyl group selected from fatty acids and glycerin esters used in the present invention may have any of a branched chain, straight chain, saturated or unsaturated acyl group, but the effect of the present invention is more clearly understood. From this viewpoint, the acyl group preferably has 12 to 30 carbon atoms, and more preferably 14 to 22 carbon atoms.
[0011]
Specific examples of fatty acids used in the present invention include single fatty acids such as lauric acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, oleic acid, elaidic acid, linoleic acid, linolenic acid, soybean oil fatty acid, rapeseed oil fatty acid, tall oil Examples include mixed fatty acids such as fatty acids. From the viewpoint of low-temperature fluidity related to the handleability of the monoglyceride-containing composition, those having an iodine value of 80 or more are preferred, and those having 130 or more are more preferred. Specifically, oleic acid, linoleic acid, linolenic acid, soybean oil fatty acid, rapeseed oil fatty acid, and tall oil fatty acid are preferred.
[0012]
Examples of the glycerin ester used in the present invention include triesters, diesters and mixtures thereof containing the fatty acid and glycerin as constituent components. Moreover, monoester may be contained.
[0013]
In the present invention, the reaction ratio between glycerin and the compound having an acyl group is such that a monoglyceride-containing composition having a high monoglyceride content is obtained, and from the viewpoint of increasing the productivity per batch, the acyl group of the compound having an acyl group is 1 mol. On the other hand, 1 mol or more of glycerol is preferable, 1-3 mol is still more preferable, and 1.5-3 mol is especially preferable.
[0014]
Examples of the catalyst containing at least one metal selected from iron, cobalt and manganese used in the present invention include a simple metal selected from iron, cobalt and manganese, or a compound thereof. Specifically, as the catalyst containing iron, reduced iron alone, iron sesquioxide (Fe 2 O 3 ), iron tetroxide (Fe 3 O 4 ), iron hydroxide (FeOOH), and other oxides and hydroxide And metal soaps such as iron acetate, iron propionate, iron stearate and iron oleate, and chlorides such as iron (II) chloride and iron (III) chloride. Examples of the catalyst containing cobalt include cobalt alone, cobalt monoxide (CoO), cobalt tetroxide (Co 3 O 4 ), cobalt carbonate, cobalt stearate, and cobalt (II) chloride. Examples of the catalyst containing manganese include manganese alone, manganese dioxide, manganese trioxide, and manganese stearate. From the viewpoint of catalytic activity, handleability, and availability, a catalyst containing iron is preferable, and iron hydroxide is particularly preferable. The amount of the catalyst used is 0.1 to 60 ppm, preferably 0.5 to 10 ppm, and more preferably 0.5 to 5 ppm as a metal from the viewpoint of shortening the reaction time and reducing the filtration burden.
[0015]
In the present invention, from the viewpoint of increasing the monoglyceride content and reducing the amount of free fatty acids, the reaction rate of the fatty acid standard (represented by the following formula (I)) reaches 90% or more in the reaction between glycerin and the fatty acid. Thus, after the transesterification reaction becomes dominant as compared with the esterification reaction, or during the transesterification reaction between glycerin and glycerin ester, the water content in the reaction system is maintained at 500 to 5000 ppm, and further 600 to 3000 ppm. It is preferable to have a step of controlling so as to. The moisture content can be controlled by adjusting the amount of inert gas such as nitrogen introduced into the reaction vessel while measuring the moisture content of the reaction solution over time using a moisture meter.
[0016]
[Expression 1]
[0017]
The temperature of the reaction between the glycerin and the compound having an acyl group is preferably 180 ° C. or higher from the viewpoint of improving the solubility of glycerin in the oil layer and improving the esterification reaction and transesterification reaction rate. From the viewpoint of suppressing the production of glycerin, 270 ° C. or lower is preferable. Specifically, 180-270 degreeC is preferable, More preferably, it is 200-260 degreeC, Most preferably, it is 240-255 degreeC. As for the reaction time, heating at a high temperature for a long time increases the by-product amount of diglycerin, which is a glycerin condensate. The following is more preferable, and 5 hours or less is most preferable.
[0018]
The monoglyceride-containing composition having a high monoglyceride content obtained by the method of the present invention can be used as it is, but the catalyst containing glycerin and metal may be removed. When removing the catalyst containing glycerin and metal, it is preferable to distill glycerin in the presence of the catalyst containing metal from the viewpoint of productivity. That is, if it is attempted to filter the catalyst containing metal before distilling off glycerin, due to the heat resistance of the filter medium and the catalyst removal property, the catalyst is once cooled to 100 ° C. Although there is a complexity in the process of having to leave, this complexity can be avoided in the present invention. Further, the method of filtering the metal-containing catalyst after distilling off glycerin has an advantage that the filtration rate is increased because glycerin having a high viscosity does not exist during filtration. Specifically, after the reaction, glycerin is distilled off under reduced pressure, and if necessary, water vapor is further supplied under reduced pressure to distill off glycerin, and then the catalyst containing metal is removed by filtration. Distillation of glycerin can be performed batchwise or continuously using a thin film distiller. When glycerin is distilled off in a batch system, the temperature is preferably 200 ° C. or lower, more preferably 180 ° C. or lower, and the pressure is preferably 53 kPa or lower, more preferably 2.7 kPa or lower. Filtration can be easily performed using a zeta potential filter having an adsorption action by a so-called zeta potential.
[0019]
The monoglyceride content in the present invention refers to that obtained by GPC analysis (gel permeation chromatography) according to the following formula (II), and means the area ratio of monoglyceride in GPC analysis to the total of monoglyceride, diglyceride and triglyceride.
[0020]
[Expression 2]
[0021]
[MG: GPC monoglyceride area DG: GPC diglyceride area TG: GPC triglyceride area]
By the method of the present invention, a high monoglyceride-containing composition having a monoglyceride content of 55 area% or more can be obtained. From the viewpoint of productivity, the monoglyceride content can be increased to 75% by area. Specifically, a composition having a monoglyceride content of 55 to 75 area%, and further 60 to 75 area% can be produced.
[0022]
【Example】
The monoglyceride content was determined by GPC analysis. TSKgel G2000HXL and TSKgel G1000HXL manufactured by Tosoh Corporation were connected in series as columns, RI (differential refractometer) was used as a detector, and THF (tetrahydrofuran) was used as an eluent.
[0023]
The contents of glycerin and diglycerin were quantified by GC analysis (gas chromatography), and the iron content was quantified by ICP analysis (inductively coupled plasma emission analysis).
[0024]
Example 1
In a 2 L four-necked flask equipped with a stirrer, dehydrating tube-cooling tube, thermometer, and nitrogen introducing tube, 480 g of glycerin and 750 g of tall oil fatty acid are added [glycerin / fatty acid (molar ratio) = 2.0], and a small amount of water. Suspended iron hydroxide was added in an amount of 2 ppm as iron, and the temperature was raised to 250 ° C. over about 1.5 hours with stirring at 400 r / min while flowing 100 mL / min of nitrogen through the liquid space. After reaching 250 ° C., the reaction was carried out at that temperature for 4 hours. As a result of analyzing the acid value, the water content, and the monoglyceride content with time, the water content at a fatty acid-based reaction rate of 90% or more changed from 700 to 1900 ppm. The monoglyceride content in the product after the reaction was 67 area%.
[0025]
Subsequently, the reaction mixture was cooled to 170 ° C. by refluxing under reduced pressure, and glycerin was distilled off under reduced pressure at a pressure of 2.7 kPa or less, and after further supplying water vapor at 150 ° C. and 2 kPa for 2 hours, zeta plus A monoglyceride-containing composition was obtained by adsorption filtration under pressure using 30S (Cuno Co., Ltd.). The monoglyceride content in the composition was 64 area%, the acid value was 0.2 mg KOH / g, the glycerin content was 0.3 wt%, the diglycerin content was 0.3 wt%, and the iron content was 0.1 ppm or less.
[0026]
Example 2
The reaction was carried out in the same manner as in Example 1 except that iron hydroxide was changed to iron stearate, and adsorption filtration was performed in the same manner except for glycerin. The monoglyceride content in the product after the reaction was 65 area%, and the water content when the reaction rate based on fatty acid was 90% or more was 600-1300 ppm.
