The invention relates to a modification method of
macroporous resin for adsorbing low-concentration
sulfur dioxide in air. The method comprises the steps that macroporous
polystyrene resin is sufficiently swelled in a three-necked flask by using
dichloroethane; a methylal solution is added to an another three-necked flask, then a
thionyl chloride solution is dropwise added to the flask,
chloromethyl ether is generated after the solution reacts, and the
mixed solution after the reaction is completely poured into the three-necked flask filled with resin;
anhydrous zinc chloride powder is added to the three-necked flask filled with resin and used as a catalyst, a sufficient reaction is conducted, then cooling,
filtration and extraction are conducted, and chloromethylation resin is obtained; then the chloromethylation resin is added to an
organic solvent and binary organic
tertiary amine, a sufficient reaction is conducted under a stirring state, cooling and
filtration are conducted, and finally
acetone is used for extraction to obtain the required
amination resin. According to the modification method, an indirect chloromethylation reaction is adopted, the risk of touching chloromethylmethyl
ether by operation personnel is greatly lowered, and the chloromethylation effect on the resin is stable. An
amination reagent is organic
tertiary amine which can react with
sulfur dioxide molecules more sufficiently, and the capacity of adsorbing low-concentration
sulfur dioxide by the resin is greatly improved.
