Abstract

The invention discloses a method for polymerizing diethylene glycol and ethylene oxide. The method comprises the following steps: under the protection of inert gas and / or nitrogen, and in the presence of a quaternary ammonium base, diethylene glycol It can be polymerized with ethylene oxide at a molar ratio of 1:1 to 1:3. The method of the present invention has high reaction activity and good selectivity, the catalyst can be easily removed, the neutralization process is reduced, and the rectification substrate has a light color, which can be directly used to produce products such as polyethylene glycol and polyethylene glycol dimethyl ether ; The method of the present invention can not only improve the production capacity of triethylene glycol and / or tetraethylene glycol, but also can co-produce other polymerized glycols, such as pentaethylene glycol; through the process of the present invention, not only the vertical development of products can be realized , to create higher economic benefits, but also reduce investment in environmental protection and reduce the impact on the environment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of chemical synthesis, in particular to a method for polymerizing diethylene glycol and ethylene oxide. Background technique [0002] Triethylene glycol (molecular formula: HOC 2 h 4 OC 2 h 4 OC 2 h 4 OH) is one of the important glycols, mainly used as solvent, desiccant, lubricant, plasticizer. Triethylene glycol is easy to dehydrate from air and other gases, and is currently widely used as a natural gas dehydrating agent. The production method of triethylene glycol is mainly obtained through multi-step separation from the waste liquid produced by the process of producing ethylene glycol from ethylene oxide. Due to the complex composition of waste liquid, water, ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol (molecular formula: HOC 2 h 4 OC 2 h 4 OH) and triethylene glycol, it also contains salts such as sodium sulfate, sodium chloride, sodium nitrate, sodium glycolate, sodium formate, ethyl chloride, and sodium hydro...
