Problems solved by technology

[0003] At present, the silver oxide method is used to produce tetramethylammonium hydroxide, that is, the reaction of tetramethylammonium chloride and silver oxide produces tetramethylammonium hydroxide , the defect of the process route of this method is: 1, can only produce intermittently, can't scale production; 2, need to consume precious silver oxide, and cost is higher; ions, making tetramethylammonium hydroxide contaminated by silver ions
4. The purity of the generated tetramethylammonium hydroxide is low, the concentration of each metal ion in it is 50 ppb, and the concentration of each anion is greater than 550 ppb

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing electronic grade tetramethylammonium hydroxide by a continuous method. The method comprises the following steps of: sequentially dividing an electrolytic cell into a cathode chamber, a first cathode middle chamber, a second cathode middle chamber and an anode chamber, wherein the two adjacent chambers are partitioned by a cation exchange membrane and connected by using a circulating pump and a filter connected in series, and the anode chamber is connected with the circulating pump and the filter connected in series; putting a 5 to 50 percent aqueous solution of a tetramethyl ammonium salt into the anode chamber, wherein (CH3)4N<+>, H<+> and metal cation R<+> in the solution enter the two cathode middle chambers and the cathode chamber through the cation exchange membranes; and removing the sediment generated by partial metal cation R<+> and OH<-> by using the filter, pumping the filtrate for reaction by using the circulating pump, and discharging the 5 to 30 percent tetramethylammonium hydroxide from the cathode chamber, wherein the concentration of each metal ion is less than 10ppb, the concentration of each anion is less than 500ppb, and the tetramethylammonium hydroxide has high purity. The current efficiency of the tetramethylammonium hydroxide is 70 to 80 percent, the tetramethylammonium hydroxide has high utilization rate, and the method has no pollution and can be used for large-scale production.
