| Introduction | Adipic acid, also known as fat acid, is a carboxylic acid organic compound that can be used as a chemical reagent, and also used in plastics and organic synthesis.. It is a white crystalline powder, slightly soluble in water, and acidic when dissolved in water. Adipic acid, as the basic unit of a variety of chemical products, is by far the most important aliphatic dicarboxylic acid in industrial production. About 3 million tons of adipic acid are used to synthesize nylon -66 monomer every year worldwide. In addition, adipic acid is also used to synthesize polyester, polyurethane, lubricant, plasticizer, adiponitrile, and gelling additives used as seasoning in food. |
| Application | Adipic acid is the most valuable diacid in aliphatic diacids. Adipic acid has the generality of aliphatic dibasic acid, including salt formation reaction, esterification reaction, amidation reaction, etc. The main use of adipic acid is as a raw material for three major categories of products, namely: synthetic nylon 66 salt, and then manufacture polyamide resin and fiber (nylon 66). Nylon 66 is the largest end market for adipic acid; synthetic polyester polyol, Used in the production of polyester polyurethane; adipic acid diester plasticizer. In addition, it can also be used to produce advanced lubricating oil and food additives (sour agents for food and beverage). |
| preparation method | 74mmol cyclohexane, 7ml of solvent butanone (mass ratio of cyclohexane to butanone is 1.1:1), 33mg of activated carbon supported nano-gold catalyst (mass fraction of Au is 1. 25%; The mass ratio of cyclohexane to catalyst is 188. 7:1),0. 7mmol initiator cyclohexanone (mass ratio of cyclohexane to cyclohexanone is 90. 6:1), magnetic stirrer, magnetic stirring is started, oxygen is introduced at 130°C, oxygen pressure is maintained at 1. 5MPa, and cooled to room temperature after 8 hours of reaction. Centrifugal separation to obtain the activated carbon supported nano-gold catalyst and the reaction liquid, take a little part of the reaction liquid for the result detection, and the rest of the reaction liquid is extracted with deionized water for three times to obtain the oil phase and the water phase, and the water phase is cooled at 0°C for 12 hours to obtain the adipic acid crystalline solid; the oil phase is swirled in vacuum, the initiator cyclohexanone is collected, and it is returned to the reaction kettle for re-reaction; the activated carbon supported nano-gold catalyst is washed with acetone for three, after drying at 120°C for 5 hours, it is recycled. |
| content analysis | in a 250ml conical flask with glass plug, transfer about 3g of accurately weighed sample, add 50ml of methanol, dissolve carefully in a steam bath, cool, add several drops of phenolphthalein test solution (TS-167), titrate with 1mol/L sodium hydroxide to the reddish end point and maintain for 30s. At the same time, a blank test was made. Each mL1mol/L sodium hydroxide is equivalent to 73.07mg adipic acid. |
