Properties and stability
1. Chemical properties: Highly reactive, capable of ring-opening reactions with a variety of reagents. For example, it reacts with water, ethanol, polyols, mercaptans, phenol, ammonia, amines, acids and other compounds containing active hydrogen atoms to open the ring to generate various compounds. Hydroxy acids are generated during oxidation. When catalytic reduction is performed using nickel and platinum as catalysts, 1-butanol is generated. Rearranges to carbonyl compounds when heated or heated with inorganic acids. It can be polymerized alone or copolymerized with other alkyl epoxy compounds to form polyether.
2. Stability[23] Stable
3. Incompatible substances[24] Strong oxidants, acids
4. Conditions to avoid contact [25] Heating, contact with air
5. Hazards of aggregation[26] No aggregation
Storage method
Storage Precautions[27] Store in a cool, ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat sources. The storage temperature should not exceed 37℃. Keep container tightly sealed. They should be stored separately from oxidants, acids, and food chemicals, and avoid mixed storage. It should not be stored for a long time to avoid deterioration. Use explosion-proof lighting and ventilation facilities. It is prohibited to use mechanical equipment and tools that are prone to sparks. The storage area should be equipped with emergency release equipment and suitable containment materials.
Synthesis method
In industry, butylene oxide comes from the recovery of by-products of propylene oxide production. In the process of producing ethylene oxide and propylene oxide through hypochlorous acidification of cracked tail gas, the propylene oxide tower bottom liquid can be obtained. It contains 74.6% butylene oxide, 16.7% propylene oxide, 0.7% ethylene oxide, 3.1% water, and a small amount of high boiling matter. Through distillation, collect the 50-70°C fraction from the tower, remove the water after condensation, and obtain the 1,2-epoxybutane finished product with a content of approximately 87%. If higher purity is required, further fractionation can be performed.
Purpose
1. This product is used as a reactive diluent for epoxy resin and can also be used as a diluent for nitrocellulose paint instead of acetone. Also used in the manufacture of intermediates and polymers, such as the production of 1,2-butanediol. This product is also a standard for chromatographic analysis.
2. Used as an antioxidant for chlorine-containing compounds such as trichlorethylene. When manufacturing vinyl chloride and its copolymers, adding 0.25% to 0.5% of 1,2-epoxybutane can effectively control the impact of container corrosion on the color and performance of the resin. Others are used in the manufacture of butanolamine, surfactants, and gasoline additives.
3. Used as solvents, stabilizers for chlorinated solvents, and intermediates in organic synthesis. [28]
