`screw extruder
`[57] Abstract
`The present invention relates to a method for continuous preparation of polysulfone amide
`spinning solution, wherein 4’4-DDS and 3’ 3-DDS by mass ratio 10:90 ~ 90:10 are dissolved
`in DMAC polar solvent, cooled down in a cooler, then the reactants, pre-polymerized or not,
`are loaded into a twin-screw extruder which functions as main reactor and remained for 10 ~
`25 minutes. Polysulfone amide containing hydrogen chloride is extruded, and neutralized with
`calcium hydroxide or calcium oxide. The obtained polymer solution can be directly applied
`for spinning. The use of the twin-screw extruder in the present invention is beneficial for

`
`Method for continuous preparation of polysulfone amide spinning
`solution with a twin-screw extruder
`
`Technical Field
`The present invention involves a method for continuous preparation of
`polysulfone amide spinning solution with a twin-screw extruder, more especially
`speaking, it involves a method for continuous preparation of polysulfone amide
`spinning solution with a twin-screw extruder as main reactor.
`
`Technical Background
`
`Polysulfone amide has excellent heat resistance, flame resistance, and
`outstanding high temperature resistance and electrical insulation properties,
`which is used for preparing flame resistant material and insulating material at
`high application temperature, such as fiber, paper, etc.
`The currently available method for preparing polysulfone amide is generally low
`temperature solution polymerization.
`A certain proportion of 4’ 4-diaminodiphenylsulfone (4’ 4-DDS) and 3’ 3-
`diaminodiphenylsulfone (3’ 3-DDS) were dissolved in an amide solution, and
`polymerized with paraphthaloyl chloride (TPC) at a low temperature to prepare
`polysulfone amide. The byproduct hydrogen chloride was neutralized in solution.
`The polymer solution containing the hydrochloride salt of alkali metal, which
`was generated via above-mentioned neutralization and solved
`in
`the
`polymerization system, can be directly used for spinning. The disadvantage of
`the method is that it used a discontinuous manner, the reaction heat is difficult to
`be removed, local overheating easily results in diversity of molecular weight.
`Moreover, the reaction system contains a great amount of salt, which makes it
`difficult to subsequently water-wash the fiber produced, and residual salt in final
`
`BASF SE Ex. 1009, pg. 6
`
`

`

`fiber product will significantly decrease the physical and mechanical properties,
`electrical insulation property of the fibers.
`
`Contents of the Invention
`The objective of the present invention is to provide a method for continuous
`preparation of polysulfone amide spinning solution with a twin-screw extruder.
`Because the twin-screw extruder was used as main reactor to realize continuous
`low-temperature solution condensation polymerization of polysulfone amide,
`which is beneficial for solving heat dissipation problem in the reaction system,
`and thus avoid the inhomogeneity problem of polymer molecular weight.
`Moreover, the method provided by the present invention partially remove
`hydrogen chloride gas,
`the
`low molecular weight byproduct
`in
`the
`polymerization system, thereby decreases the usage of neutralizer, decreases the
`amount of salts in the final system. Because of extruding among screws,
`hydrogen chloride gas is apt to be released from the polymerization system and
`eliminated through exhaust vent.
`The present invention has also effectively increased the solid content of the
`reaction system, which enhances the production efficiency. In the currently
`available technologies, because the system becomes very thick in the late phase,
`it is hard to stir and limits the increase of solid content.
`The present invention discloses a method for continuous preparation of
`polysulfone amide spinning solution with a twin-screw extruder, wherein it
`compromises following steps:
`
`1) Dissolution: 4’ 4-diaminodiphenylsulfone and 3’ 3-diaminodiphenylsulfone
`according to a ratio are dissolved in polar solvent, and cooled down;
`
`2) Pre-polymerization: the solution in step 1) and TPC (paraphthaloyl chloride)
`are mixed by a reaction ratio, generating prepolymerization product including
`byproduct hydrogen chloride;
`
`BASF SE Ex. 1009, pg. 7
`
`

`

`3) Polymerization: the prepolymer is loaded into a twin-screw extruder and
`polysulfone amide containing hydrogen chloride is extruded. Alternatively,
`the pre-polymerization step 2) is optional, wherein the solution in step 1) and
`TPC are loaded into the twin-screw extruder and then polysulfone amide
`containing hydrogen chloride is extruded.
`
`4) Neutralization: hydrogen chloride generated in the polymerization step is
`neutralized with hydroxide or oxide of alkali metals, and the polymer
`solution can be directly applied for spinning. The generated calcium chloride
`can be dissolved in the solvent system, and is also favorable for the stability
`of the polymer solution.
`
`In the method of the present invention for preparing polysulfone amide, the
`length-diameter ratio of the twin-screw extruder as main reactor is preferably
`greater than 1:30 and the diameter is greater than 25 mm.
`
`In the method of the present invention for preparing polysulfone amide, the
`concentration of 4’4-DDS and 3’3-DDS in the polymerization system is 0.3 ~
`0.7 mol/L, and the pre-polymerization temperature is -20 to 20 oC.
`
`In the method of the present invention for preparing polysulfone amide, the
`retention time of the reactants in the polymerization step in the twin-screw
`extruder is 10 ~ 25 minutes. The retention temperature is preferably divided into
`three zones, with each temperature is -5 to 5 oC, 0 to 20 oC and 10 to 100 oC,
`respectively.
`
`In the method of the present invention for preparing polysulfone amide, the
`concentration of the polymer in the produced polysulfone amide spinning
`solution is 12 ~ 20%.
`
`BASF SE Ex. 1009, pg. 8

`

`

`In the method of the present invention for preparing polysulfone amide, wherein
`the obtained polysulfone amide spinning solution contains calcium chloride at 1
`~ 20 % by weight according to polysulfone amide.
`
`In the present method for preparing polysulfone amide, wherein the reaction
`solvent
`system
`is
`N,
`N’-dimethylacetamide
`(DMAC).
`4’4-
`diaminodiphenylsulfone (4’4-DDS) and 3’3-diaminodiphenylsulfone (3’3-DDS)
`by mass ratio of 10:90 ~ 90:10 are dissolved in N, N’-dimethylacetamide
`solvent.
`
`In the method provided by the present invention, the pre-polymerization
`between diphenyl sulfone (MPD) and paraphthaloyl chloride (TPC) is firstly
`conducted. MPD is first solved in polar organic solvent. The concentration is 0.3
`~ 0.7 mol/L, preferentially 0.4 ~ 0.6 mol/L. Then TPC of equal mole is added,
`wherein the temperature is -20 to 20 oC, preferentially -20 to 10 oC.
`
`Then, the pre-polymerization system after filtration is loaded into a twin-screw
`extruder as main reactor, or without pre-polymerization step, the solved 4’4-
`DDS and 3’3-DDS solution after cooling is loaded together with molten TPC at
`reaction ratio into the twin-screw extruder. The three zones of the twin-screw
`extruder main reactor are controlled preferentially at -5 to 0 oC, 0 to 10 oC and
`10 to 60 oC, respectively. The self-cleaning twin-screw extruder in the present
`invention is comprised of two intermeshed screws, the right-hand thread has a
`left-hand thread groove. Therefore, the material can be completely mixed in
`rather short time, leading to higher molecular weight of the product and
`homogeneity of the condensed polymer. The length-diameter ratio of the screw
`is higher than 1:30, usually 1:40 to 1:60. The speed of the screw is controllable.
`The retention time of the material in the twin-screw extruder is 10 ~ 25 minutes.
`The twin-screw extruder is facilitated with exhaust vent at proper position,
`therefrom the low molecule product produced from the reaction is continuously
`removed via vacuum, such as water and hydrogen chloride. The presence of
`
`BASF SE Ex. 1009, pg. 9
`
`

`

`exhaust vent results not only in the enhancement of the viscosity of the product,
`but also in the decrease of the hydrogen chloride in the reaction system, which
`decreases the usage of further neutralizer and decreases the salt content of the
`final spinning solution.
`
`Since partial hydrogen chloride remains in the polymer solution out of the twin-
`screw extruder, it is neutralized with hydroxide or oxide of alkali metals. The
`generated hydroxide or oxide of alkali metals is dissolved in the reaction system,
`favorable for the stability of the spinning solution. The final spinning solution
`contains solid content of 12 ~ 20% by weight, and calcium chloride 1-20% by
`weight according to polysulfone amide. The content of calcium hydroxide or
`calcium oxide is 1 ~ 20%, preferentially 1 ~ 5%. The logarithmic viscosity
`number of the polysulfone amide is above 1.4.
`
`The logarithmic viscosity number of the resin prepared as solution of 0.5 g/100
`ml with concentrated sulfuric acid as solvent is determined with Ubbelohde
`viscometer at 30 oC, and calculated according to the following equation:
`
`
`Wherein, t0 is the flow-through time of solvent, t is the flow-through time of
`solution, c is the concentration of the polymer solution with unit of g/100ml.
