Abstract

The invention discloses a method for continuously rectifying and purifying the lactide with high yield rate, which belongs to the field of chemical and industrial rectification and purification. The method comprises the following steps of removing low-boiling point components particularly including water, lactic acid and partial meso-lactide on a tower top through the vacuum operation of a first rectification tower; removing all the meso-lactide on a tower top through the vacuum operation of a second rectification tower; and obtaining high-purity lactide products on the tower top through the vacuum operation of a third rectification tower, wherein the first rectification tower has 12 theoretical plates, 8 rectification sections and 8 stripping sections; the second rectification tower has 15 theoretical plates, 6 rectification sections and 9 stripping sections; and the third rectification tower has 8 theoretical plates, 5 rectification sections and 3 stripping sections. All the three towers provide back flow in the mode of internal back flow. In the invention, the purity of the lactide is higher than 99%, and the yield rate is higher than 90%. Continuous operation is realized so that the quality of the products is stable, raw materials are saved and the production cost is reduced.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to the field of chemical distillation and purification, and relates to a continuous high-vacuum distillation and purification method for lactide. Method for purifying lactide. Background technique: [0002] Polylactic acid is a new type of biodegradable polymer synthetic material obtained by ring-opening polymerization using lactide as raw material. Polylactic acid is non-toxic, non-irritating, has good biocompatibility, and can be biodegraded and absorbed. It is a high-strength, easy-to-process synthetic biodegradable polymer material with a wide range of uses. At present, the large-scale industrial production methods of polylactic acid are the ring-opening polymerization of lactide, that is, lactide is first prepared from lactic acid, and then polylactic acid is obtained by ring-opening polymerization of lactide as a monomer. The prepared lactide crude liquid often contains impurities such as water, lactic acid, meso-lactide,...
