New progress in the synthesis route and purification technology of dibutyltin dilaurate

Introduction

Dibutyltin dilaurate (DBTDL), as an efficient catalyst and stabilizer, has been widely used in many industrial fields. This article will review the new progress in the synthesis route of DBTDL and its purification technology, aiming to provide a reference for researchers and enterprises to improve the production efficiency and product quality of DBTDL.

1. Synthetic route of dibutyltin dilaurate

  1. Traditional synthesis methods

    • Reaction principle: The traditional synthesis method mainly prepares DBTDL through the esterification reaction of dibutyltin oxide and lauric acid.
    • Reaction steps:
      1. Raw material preparation: Mix dibutyltin oxide and lauric acid in a certain proportion.
      2. Esterification reaction: At a certain temperature (usually 120-150°C), the raw materials are thoroughly mixed by stirring to carry out esterification reaction.
      3. Post-treatment: After the reaction is completed, the product is purified through filtration, washing, drying and other steps.
  2. Improved synthesis method

    • Catalyst usage: In order to improve reaction efficiency, catalysts, such as sulfuric acid, sodium hydroxide, etc., can be added during the reaction process.
