Abstract
Using ethylene glycol and potassium hydroxide as the raw materials,and organic aromatics as the reaction solvent and the water-carrying agent,the synthesis technology of ethlyene glycol potassium under normal pressure was studied.The influencing factors such as the molar ratio of reactants,reaction temperature,reaction time,the solvent dosage were investigated.The optimum condition of synthesis technology were as follows:the molar ratio of ethylene glycol to potassium hydroxide(1.3 -1.5):1, reaction temperature(100 - 160)℃,reaction time 3 h.Ethylene glycol conversion of 85.11%was attained.
