Problems solved by technology

[0005] Although there are many preparation technologies for epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) reported in the literature or disclosed in patents, most of the technologies belong to the level of laboratory preparation, and the preparation amount is usually between milligrams and several grams. With only tens of grams of preparation, these technologies are difficult to carry out large-scale industrial production, and they are far from meeting the growing market demand
[0006] For example, in the invention patent of "purification method of epigallocatechin gallate monomer" with the patent number of CN 1193994C, a high-content purification method of epigallocatechin gallate is disclosed. Sephadex LH-20 was used for separation and purification. Although a small amount of epigallocatechin gallate monomer was also prepared, it is well known that Sephadex LH-20 is an expensive separation material. The price per kilogram is tens of thousands of RMB. Generally, it is only suitable for the separation of a small amount of reference substance in the laboratory. Obviously, this technology cannot be used in industrial production.
There are also many such disclosed technologies, such as the patent No. CN 1164583C "separation and preparation process of epigallocatechin gallate", using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to prepare column separation, the separation material selected is expensive C 18 , also belongs to the category of laboratory separation, and the preparation amount is usually only at the level of milligrams to several grams, which cannot be industrialized
[0007] The technologies cited above are not practical. In addition, although there are many technologies disclosed in documents and patents that have certain practicability, the process is complicated and the production cost is high.
For example, in the invention patent of "a purification method of epigallocatechin gallate monomer" with the patent number CN 1733753A, methods such as microporous membrane filtration and freeze-drying were used to purify epigallocatechin gallate. The preparation of ester monomers, the production cost will obviously be very high
In addition, there is also a method for preparing epigallocatechin gallate monomers by using inorganic salts such as aluminum salts, calcium salts, and magnesium salts for complex precipitation, which will inevitably bring a certain degree of pollution during the production process. And the production cost is relatively high
