Problems solved by technology

The disadvantages of the reported methods are that the traditional acid-base catalysts are difficult to recycle or reuse, corrode equipment, need to be neutralized and washed with water, resulting in a large amount of waste water and polluting the environment
Our research group reported that ionic liquid 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazole acetate (CN 2012101469065) and liquid Lewis acid (CN2015102531419) as catalysts can effectively catalyze the alcoholysis of PLA to recover corresponding products, but the separation of liquid catalysts is difficult , difficult to recycle
The amount of ionic liquid is large (the mass ratio of ionic liquid to PLA is generally 0.02-1:1, preferably 0.05-0.5:1;), although the amount of liquid Lewis acid is not large, they all contain transition metal salts, resulting in product color pollution, The purity is not high

Embodiment 1

[0031] Catalyst preparation

[0032] (1) Preparation of [tespmim][Cl]

[0033] Put the refined 0.1mol N-methylimidazole in a 250mL three-necked round-bottomed flask, add 0.14mol 3-chloropropyltriethoxysilane (CPTES) dropwise under an ice-water bath, and stir the reaction at room temperature for 1.0h after the dropwise reaction, in N 2Under the atmosphere, heat, stir and reflux at 80°C for 72 hours, transfer the colorless viscous liquid to a 250mL separatory funnel while hot, wash the product with anhydrous ether (10mL×3) for several times to remove unreacted substances, pour the ether layer, the lower thick liquid was transferred to a 250mL single-necked flask, ether was removed by rotary evaporation, and vacuum-dried for 4.0h to obtain a light yellow viscous liquid [tespmim][Cl] with a yield of 91.4%.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for recovering methyl lactate by using a supported ionic liquid [tespmim][OAc]-Zn(OAc)2 / SBA-15 as a catalyst for alcoholysis of a waste polylactic acid material (PLA).The method comprises the following steps that PLA, methanol and the catalyst [tespmim][OAc]-Zn(OAc)2 / SBA-15 are added into a reaction still for an alcoholysis reaction at 90-130 DEG C according to amass ratio of mPLA to mcatalyst and a molar ratio of nPLA to nmethanol, wherein the mass ratio of mPLA to mcatalyst is 1:(0.001-0.1), and the molar ratio of nPLA to nmethanol is 1:(1-10); after the reaction is completed, the catalyst is recovered by means of filtration, unreacted methanol is recovered by means of rotary distillation, and the product methyl lactate is collected by means of distillation under reduced pressure. The conversion rate of PLA can reach 100%, the yield of the product methyl lactate can reach 95% or above, the purity is 99%, and the catalyst supported ionic liquid [tespmim][OAc]-Zn(OAc)2 / SBA-15 can be directly reused.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of high-value conversion of waste bio-based materials, and in particular relates to a method of catalyzing methanolysis of waste polylactic acid (PLA) with solid-supported ionic liquid catalyst [tespmim][OAc]-Zn(OAc)2 / SBA-15 Method for recovering methyl lactate. Background technique [0002] With the increase of population, the oil crisis and the continuous rise in the price of petrochemical-based raw materials, as well as the increasing attention of human beings to issues such as the environment and health, the development and utilization of renewable resources have attracted more and more attention. As a high-performance polymer material, polylactic acid (PLA) has the advantages of good biocompatibility, biodegradability, environmental friendliness and good mechanical properties. It is a petrochemical-based polymer such as polyester and polystyrene. It can be used as a potential substitute for biomaterial...
