Manufacturing method of GPPS: exploration
in the field of raw materials for chemical production
abstract

this paper introduces in detail the manufacturing method of GPPS (general-purpose polystyrene) in the field of raw materials for chemical production. Through the elaboration of raw materials, reaction mechanism, production process and equipment, the paper aims to provide readers with comprehensive and in-depth knowledge of GPPS manufacturing.

1. Introduction

GPPS, or general-purpose polystyrene, is a widely used plastic material with excellent processing properties, electrical insulation, heat distortion temperature and optical properties. In the field of chemical production raw materials, the manufacturing method of GPPS has attracted much attention, and this paper will discuss it in detail.

2. raw material
The main raw material of
GPPS is styrene monomer, and the structure of styrene monomer is C6H5CH = CH2. In order to obtain high quality GPPS, the purity of styrene monomer is required to be higher, and generally needs to be controlled above 99.5%.

3. reaction mechanism

GPPS manufacturing process mainly involves the polymerization of styrene monomer. The polymerization reaction is divided into two categories: free radical polymerization and ionic polymerization. In the production of GPPS, free radical polymerization is usually used. The mechanism of free radical polymerization includes three stages: chain initiation, chain growth and chain termination.

4. production process
The production process of
GPPS mainly includes the following steps:

1. Pretreatment: Pretreatment of styrene monomer to remove impurities such as polymerization inhibitor and moisture.
2. Initiator addition: An initiator is added to the pretreated styrene monomer to initiate free radical polymerization.
3. Polymerization: Free-radical polymerization of styrene monomer at a suitable temperature and pressure to produce GPPS.
4. Post-treatment: The generated GPPS is subjected to post-treatment such as granulation and drying to obtain the final GPPS product.

5. production equipment

GPPS production equipment mainly includes polymerization kettle, agitator, heater, cooler, granulator, etc. These devices play an important role in the production process and have an important impact on product quality and production efficiency.

6. influencing factors and optimization measures

In the manufacturing process of GPPS, it is affected by many factors, such as raw material quality, reaction temperature, pressure, initiator type and dosage. In order to improve product quality and production efficiency, these factors need to be optimized. Specific optimization measures include:

1. Strictly control the quality of raw materials to ensure that the purity of styrene monomer meets the requirements.
2. According to the actual production situation, select the appropriate initiator type and dosage.
3. Optimize the temperature and pressure of the polymerization reaction to improve the reaction rate and product quality.
4. Strengthen equipment maintenance and maintenance to ensure normal operation of equipment and improve production efficiency.

7. conclusion

GPPS as an important raw material for chemical production, its manufacturing method involves many links and factors. Through the detailed discussion of raw materials, reaction mechanism, production process and equipment, we can provide readers with comprehensive and in-depth knowledge of GPPS manufacturing. In the actual production process, appropriate manufacturing methods and optimization measures should be selected according to the specific situation to improve product quality and production efficiency.
