研究了无溶剂条件下纳米Cu2O催化二苯甲烷二氨基甲酸苯酯(MDPC)热分解制备二苯甲烷二异氰酸酯(MDI),考察了纳米Cu2O的制备条件与反应条件对MDPC热分解反应性能的影响.结果表明,水解法制备的纳米Cu2O在Ar中于300°C焙烧2h,其催化性能最佳;最佳的反应条件为Cu2O用量为原料总重的0.06%,反应温度220°C,反应压力0.6kPa,反应时间12min,此时MDPC转化率达到99.8%,MDI选择性86.2%.

Methylene di(phenylisocyanate)(MDI) was prepared by thermal decomposition of methylenediphenyl di(phenylcarbamate)(MDPC) under solvent-free conditions with a nano-Cu2O catalyst.The preparation of nano-Cu2O was investigated in detail to obtain the optimal catalytic performance.The thermal decomposition reaction conditions,including reaction temperature,reaction pressure,and reaction time,were studied in the presence of nano-Cu2O.The results show that Cu2O prepared using a hydrolysis method and then calcined at 300 °C in Ar atmosphere for 2 h exhibited the optimal catalytic activity.The optimal reaction conditions were as follows: mass ratio of catalyst to MDPC 6.0 × 10-4,reaction temperature 220 °C,reaction time 12 min,and reaction pressure 0.6 kPa.Under these conditions,the conversion of MDPC reached 99.8% and 86.2% MDI selectivity was achieved.
