摘要
聚(碳酸酯-醚)多元醇又称二氧化碳基多元醇,是通过CO_2与环氧丙烷(PO)的调聚反应所制备的.由于环氧丙烷开环反应时优先在空间位阻较低的亚甲基上的碳-氧键断裂,生成端羟基以仲羟基为主的二氧化碳基多元醇,其伯羟基含量通常低于20%,导致其与异氰酸酯反应的活性较低.本文提出了环氧乙烷(EO)封端、EO和CO_2共聚封端、一锅法三元调聚封端(PO、EO与CO_2)等3种方法来提高二氧化碳基多元醇中的伯羟基含量.研究表明,利用EO封端方法会导致多元醇中碳酸酯含量的降低,而采用EO和CO_2共聚进行封端可合成出伯羟基含量达72%的二氧化碳基多元醇,且碳酸酯含量下降很少.最后我们利用双金属催化剂(DMC)对PO和EO的开环反应速度的差异,采用一锅法将PO、EO和CO_2进行三元调聚反应,合成了伯羟基含量可达62%的二氧化碳基多元醇,且碳酸酯含量几乎不受影响.
During the past decade, poly(carbonate-ether) polyols, also known as CO_2-polyols, have been synthesized by the copolymerization of CO_2 and propylene oxide(PO) with double metal cyanide(DMC) catalyst in the presence of various chain transfer agents. CO_2-polyols show great potential as substitutes for polyols derived from fossil feedstock in the polyurethane industry. However, the ring opening reaction of PO generally occurs at the methylene carbon-oxygen bond due to less steric hindrance producing CO_2-polyol mainly with the second hydroxyl(2° OH) as terminal group, therefore, the terminal primary hydroxyl(1° OH) content is usually lower than 20%, which leads to their much lower reactivity with isocyanate. Three methods were chosen for increasing the primary hydroxyl content of CO_2-polyols, including ethylene oxide(EO) end-capping,copolymerization end-capping of EO and CO_2, and one-pot ternary polymerization(PO, EO and CO_2) endcapping. The primary hydroxyl content of the polyols was analysed based on the difference in 19 F-NMR chemical shifts between the primary and secondary trifluoroacetyl esters of the polyols. 19 F-NMR and 1 H-NMR spectroscopy indicated that EO end-capping could improve the 1° OH content of CO_2 polyols in some extent,while accompanied with obvious loss of the carbonate unit content. Therefore, the EO end-capping method can only provide polyols with low carbonate unit content. Yet CO_2-polyols with 72% of 1° OH content have been synthesized by copolymerization end-capping of EO and CO_2, and the content of carbonate unit decreases little.Finally, taking advantage of the different reactivity of PO and EO with double metal cyanide catalysts(DMC), we synthesized CO_2-polyols with 62% of 1° OH content by one-pot ternary polymerization of PO, EO and CO_2, and the carbonate unit content was almost unaffected. This strategy provides a safe and efficient possibility to synthesize high 1° OH content CO_2-polyols.
