Description
Verfahren zur Herstellung von gerueh- und geschmackfreien KunststoffenProcess for the production of odorless and tasteless plastics
Gegenstand der Erfindung ist ein Verfahren zur Herstellung von Polyolefinen nach dem Niederdruckverfahren, die sich zu Gegenständen wie z.B. Blaskörpern oder Folien verarbeiten lassen, die frei sind von unangenehmem und störendem Gerueh und die Füllgüter wie Nahrungsmittel und Genußmittel geschmacklich nicht beeinflussen.The invention relates to a process for the production of polyolefins by the low-pressure process, which become objects such as blown bodies or foils that are free have unpleasant and annoying smells and do not affect the taste of the filling goods such as food and luxury items.
Die Herstellung der Polyolefine erfolgt in bekannter Weise im Niederdruckverfahren mit Katalysatoren aus Verbindungen der Übergangsmetalle der IV. bis VI. sowie der VIII. Nebengruppe und metallorganiscnen Verbindungen der I. bis III. Hauptgruppe des Periodensystems in einem indifferenten Kohlenwasserstoff als Dispergiermittel. Im Anschluß an die Polymerisation erfolgt dann die in üblicher Weise durchgeführte Aufarbeitung des Polymerisats. Sc- kann beispielsweise das Polymerisat vom Lösungsmittel abgetrennt werden, gegebenenfalls nach Alkoholzusatz zur Zerstörung des Katalysators. Danach erfolgt eine Wäsche, die ebenfalls mit Alkohol oder anderen organischen Lösungsmitteln (auch Alkohollösungen in Kohlenwasserstoffen), oder aber mit //asser, dem gegebenenfalls Netzmittel, Säuren oder Alkali zugesetzt sind, durchgeführt werden kann. Auch eine kombinierte Behandlung mit Alkohol und Wasser ist möglich.Bei diesem Verfahren erhält man schließlich ein noch feuchtes, pulverförmiges Polymerisat. Das Produkt muß getrocknet werden, was beispielsweise in einem Vakuum- oder Stromtrockner geschehen kann, und wird dann nach Zusatz bekannter Stabilisierungsmittel in eine handelsübliche Form, beispielsweise in Granulat, übergeführt.The polyolefins are produced in a known manner using the low-pressure process with catalysts made from compounds of the transition metals of IV. to VI. as well as the VIII. subgroup and organometallic Compounds of I. to III. Main group of the periodic table in an indifferent hydrocarbon as a dispersant. in the The polymerization is then carried out in the customary manner carried out work-up of the polymer. Sc- can for example the polymer can be separated from the solvent, optionally after adding alcohol to destroy the catalyst. Then takes place a wash that is also done with alcohol or other organic solvents (including alcohol solutions in hydrocarbons), or but with water, the optionally wetting agent, acids or alkali are added, can be carried out. Combined treatment with alcohol and water is also possible with this procedure Finally, a still moist, powdery polymer is obtained. The product must be dried, which can be done, for example, in a vacuum or electric dryer, and is then added after addition known stabilizers in a commercially available form, for example in granules.
Aus Polyolefinen, die nach"dem vorbeschriebenen Verfahren hergestellt sind, erhält man bei der in an sich bekannter Weise erfolgenden Veraroeitung, beispielsweise in; Extrusions- oder Spritzgußverfahren,From polyolefins, which are produced by the process described above are obtained by processing in a manner known per se, for example in; Extrusion or injection molding processes,

häufig.Gegenstände, denen ein sehr störender unangenehmer Geruch anhaftet. Diese Geruchsbelästigung laßt sich, wie festgestellt wurde, auch nicht dadurch beseitigen, daß man dem Produkt erhebliche Mengen von Stabilisatoren zusetzt, die für Polyolefine besonders wirksam sind.frequently.Items that have a very annoying, unpleasant odor adheres. As has been found, this odor nuisance cannot be eliminated by giving the product a considerable amount Adds amounts of stabilizers that are particularly effective for polyolefins.
Es ist bereits bekannt, Niederaruckpolyolefine, insbesondere Polypropylen, zu stabilisieren, indem man sie in Abwesenheit von freiem Sauerstoff und anderen oxydierenden Substanzen erhitzt. Man will auf diese <tfeise eine thermische Depolymerisation des Produkts vermeiden, die sich besonders in einer Vorsprödung äußert.It is already known to use low-pressure polyolefins, especially polypropylene, to stabilize by heating them in the absence of free oxygen and other oxidizing substances. You want to in this way avoid thermal depolymerization of the product, which manifests itself particularly in a protrusion.
Es hat sich nun überraschenderweise herausgestellt, daß Jede G.:ruchsentwicklung völlig unterbleibt, wenn man das nach der Befreiung von den Kontaktbestandteilen erhaltene Polymerisat, gegebenenfalls nach Stabilisatorzusatz, unter praktisch vollständigem Ausschluß von Sauerstoff trocknet. Die so gewonnenen Produkte lassen sich zu geruchlich und geschmacklich einwandfreien Gegenständen verarbeiten. Es ist ohne weiteres ersichtlich, daß dieser Effekt für die Verwendung der Produkte irr; Lebensrnittelsektor von wichtiger Bedeutung ist.It has now surprisingly been found that every G.: odor development completely omitted if the polymer obtained after the liberation of the contact constituents, optionally after Stabilizer additive, dries with practically complete exclusion of oxygen. The products obtained in this way allow themselves to be used Process objects that are flawless in terms of smell and taste. It is readily apparent that this effect is wrong for the use of the products; Food sector is important.
Die Trocknung erfolgt bei Temperaturen, die unterhalb des Schmelzpunktes des zu behandelnden Materials bleiben. Bei Polyäthylen wenaet man Temperaturen im Bereich zwischen etwa öo und 9O°C, bei Polypropylen zwischen etwa βθ und 120°C an. Bei den höheren Polyolefinen wie beispielsweise Polybuten oaer auch Poly-(Wiethylpenten) verschiebt sich der Temperaturbereich entsprechend.The drying takes place at temperatures below the melting point of the material to be treated remain. In the case of polyethylene, temperatures in the range between about 50 and 90 ° C. are used, in the case of polypropylene between about βθ and 120 ° C. With the higher polyolefins such as, for example, polybutene oaer also poly (Wiethylpentene) shifts the temperature range changes accordingly.
Wenn von praktisch vollständigem Ausschluß von Sauerstoff gesprochen ist, so wird darunter verstanden, daß die Trocknung in einer inerten Atmosphäre zu erfolgen hat, deren Sauerstoffgehalt maximal etwa 500 ppm beträgt. Wie sich überraschenderweise herausstellte, zeigt das Produkt bereits deutlich den störenden Q.irvah, wenn bei hö&'en. Sauerstoffgehalten getrocknet wird. Als Inertgas kommt vor allem Stickstoff, Argon oder dergl. in Betracht.When there is talk of practically complete exclusion of oxygen, this is understood to mean that drying has to take place in an inert atmosphere, the oxygen content of which is a maximum of about 500 ppm. As it turned out, surprisingly, the product already clearly shows the annoying Q.irvah, if at Hö &'en. Oxygen content is dried. Particularly suitable inert gas is nitrogen, argon or the like.
