Definitions
- the present invention relates to a process for improving the flowability of mineral oils and mineral oil distillates by adding mixtures of an ethylene-vinyl acetate-diisobutylene terpolymer and an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer.
- Mineral oils such as crude oil, diesel fuel or heating oil contain dissolved paraffin, which crystallizes out at low temperatures. These solid deposits often lead to disruptions in the extraction and use of mineral oils. For example, the ability of crude oil production and transport facilities to function until their complete failure are impaired. In diesel engines and combustion plants, the filters can become blocked, which ultimately results in an interruption in the fuel or heating medium supply.
- additives are added to mineral oils that counteract the formation of wax crystals. This prevents an increase in the viscosity of the oils and lowers their pour point.
- Copolymers of ethylene and carboxylic acid esters of vinyl alcohol have become very important as pour point depressants and flow improvers for crude oils and middle distillates.
- ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers have proven particularly useful.
- Such copolymers and their use are described, for example, in DE-PS 19 14 756.

Abstract
Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Verbesserung der Fließfähigkeit von Mineralölen und Mineralöldestillaten durch Zusatz von Mischungen aus einem Ethylen-Vinylacetat-Diisobutylen-Terpolymerisat und einem Ethylen-Vinylacetat-Copolymerisat.The present invention relates to a process for improving the flowability of mineral oils and mineral oil distillates by adding mixtures of an ethylene-vinyl acetate-diisobutylene terpolymer and an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer.
Mineralöle wie Rohöl, Dieselkraftstoff oder Heizöl enthalten Paraffin gelöst, das bei niedrigen Temperaturen auskristallisiert. Diese Feststoffablagerungen führen häufig zu Störungen bei der Gewinnung und beim Einsatz von Mineralölen. So kann z.B. die Arbeitsfähigkeit von Förder- und Transporteinrichtungen fur Rohöl bis zu deren völligem Ausfall beeinträchtigt werden. Bei Dieselmotoren und Feuerungsanlagen können Verstopfungen der Filter auftreten, die schließlich in einer Unterbrechung der Kraftstoff- bzw. Heizmittelzufuhr resultieren.Mineral oils such as crude oil, diesel fuel or heating oil contain dissolved paraffin, which crystallizes out at low temperatures. These solid deposits often lead to disruptions in the extraction and use of mineral oils. For example, the ability of crude oil production and transport facilities to function until their complete failure are impaired. In diesel engines and combustion plants, the filters can become blocked, which ultimately results in an interruption in the fuel or heating medium supply.
Um diese unerwünschte Feststoffbildung zu vermeiden, setzt man Mineralölen Additive zu, die der Entstehung von Paraffinkristallen entgegenwirken. Dadurch wird ein Anstieg der Viskosität der Öle verhindert und ihr Stockpunkt gesenkt.In order to avoid this undesirable solid formation, additives are added to mineral oils that counteract the formation of wax crystals. This prevents an increase in the viscosity of the oils and lowers their pour point.
Große Bedeutung als Stockpunktserniedriger und Fließverbesserer für Rohöle und Mitteldestillate haben Copolymerisate aus Ethylen und Carbonsäureestern des Vinylalkohols erlangt. Besonders bewährt haben sich unter ihnen Ethylen-Vinylacetat-Copolymerisate. Solche Mischpolymerisate und ihre Verwendung sind z.B. in der DE-PS l9 l4 756 beschrieben. Ihre Herstellung erfolgt im allgemeinen durch Copolymerisation der Monomeren in Autoklaven bei Temperaturen von 80 bis l50°C und Drücken von 5 bis l5 MPa in Gegenwart von Peroxiden als Initiatoren und organischen Lösungsmitteln als Reaktionsmedium.Copolymers of ethylene and carboxylic acid esters of vinyl alcohol have become very important as pour point depressants and flow improvers for crude oils and middle distillates. Among them, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers have proven particularly useful. Such copolymers and their use are described, for example, in DE-PS 19 14 756. They are generally manufactured by copolymerization of the monomers in autoclaves at temperatures from 80 to 150 ° C. and pressures from 5 to 15 MPa in the presence of peroxides as initiators and organic solvents as the reaction medium.
In der Praxis hat sich gezeigt, daß die Wirksamkeit dieser Copolymerisate als Fließverbesserer abhängig ist von den Eigenschaften der Mineralöle und Mineralöldestillate, deren Fließfähigkeit erhöht werden soll. Bei Mitteldestillaten z.B. wird sie u.a. beeinflußt durch den Gesamtgehalt an n-Paraffinen und den Gehalt an n-Paraffinen bestimmter Kettenlängen.In practice it has been shown that the effectiveness of these copolymers as flow improvers depends on the properties of the mineral oils and mineral oil distillates, the flowability of which is to be increased. With middle distillates e.g. among other things influenced by the total content of n-paraffins and the content of n-paraffins of certain chain lengths.
Es ist daher verständlich, daß die Ethylen-Vinylacetat-Copolymerisate trotz ihrer hervorragenden Eignung die Fließfähigkeit zu erhöhen, nicht immer die erwünschte Wirkung zeigen. In solchen Fällen behilft man sich dann dadurch, daß man sie in großen Mengen zusetzt oder daß man das Mineralöl oder das Mineralöldestillat mit niedrig siedenden Kohlenwasserstoffen vermischt.It is therefore understandable that the ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers, despite their outstanding suitability for increasing the flowability, do not always have the desired effect. In such cases, the remedy is to add large quantities or to mix the mineral oil or mineral oil distillate with low-boiling hydrocarbons.
Eine andere Möglichkeit, die Wirksamkeit von Fließverbesserern zu erhöhen, besteht darin, Additivkombinationen einzusetzen. So werden in der DE 26 39 672 Al Mischungen aus Polymeren mit Ethylenskelett und Copolymeren von C₂-bis C₅₀-Olefinen beschrieben, die zu einer synergistischen Verbesserung der Fließeigenschaften von Destillatkohlenwasserstoffölen in der Kälte führen können.Another way to increase the effectiveness of flow improvers is to use additive combinations. For example, DE 26 39 672 Al describes mixtures of polymers with ethylene skeleton and copolymers of C₂ to C₅₀ olefins, which can lead to a synergistic improvement in the flow properties of distillate hydrocarbon oils in the cold.
Nach der US 36 60 057 Cl setzt man Mischungen aus einem Ethylen-Vinylacetat-Copolymerisat und einem festen Kohlenwasserstoff, der frei von n-Paraffinen ist, als Fließverbesserer ein.According to US 36 60 057 Cl, mixtures of an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer and a solid hydrocarbon which is free of n-paraffins are used as flow improvers.
Als Fließverbesserer fur Erdölmitteldestillate werden in der US 40 l9 878 Cl Gemische offenbart, die aus einem Ethylen enthaltenden Polymerisat, Bienenwachs, Ozokerit und/oder einem langkettigen alpha-Olefin bestehen.As a flow improver for petroleum middle distillates are disclosed in US 40 l9 878 Cl mixtures consisting of a Polymer containing ethylene, beeswax, ozokerite and / or a long-chain alpha-olefin.
Obgleich die bekannten Substanzen und Substanzgemische in vielen Fällen die Fließfähigkeit von Mineralölen und Mineralöldestillaten unterschiedlicher Provenienz und Zusammensetzung bei niedrigen Temperaturen zum Teil sogar deutlich verbessert haben, fehlen dennoch Additive mit möglichst vielseitiger, im Idealfall universeller Anwendbarkeit.Although the known substances and substance mixtures have in many cases even significantly improved the flowability of mineral oils and mineral oil distillates of different provenance and composition at low temperatures, additives with the most versatile and ideally universal application are still missing.
Es bestand daher die Aufgabe, Additive zu finden, die gegenüber den bekannten Fließverbesserern eine noch größere Anwendungsbreite haben. Sie sollen die Fließfähigkeit auch solcher Öle erhöhen, bei denen die bekannten Additive keine oder nur geringe Wirkung zeigen.The object was therefore to find additives which have an even greater range of uses than the known flow improvers. They are also intended to increase the flowability of oils in which the known additives have little or no effect.
Die vorstehend beschriebene Aufgabe wird gelöst durch ein Verfahren zur Verbesserung der Fließfähigkeit von Mineralölen und Mineralöldestillaten. Es ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß man den Mineralölen bzw. Mineralöldestillaten Mischungen aus einem Ethylen-Vinylacetat-Diisobutylen-Terpolymerisat und einem Ethylen-Vinylacetat-Copolymerisat zusetzt.The object described above is achieved by a method for improving the flowability of mineral oils and mineral oil distillates. It is characterized in that mixtures of an ethylene-vinyl acetate-diisobutylene terpolymer and an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer are added to the mineral oils or mineral oil distillates.
Überraschenderweise hat sich gezeigt, daß die Kombination von Ethylen-Vinylacetat-Diisobutylen-Terpolymerisaten mit Ethylen-Vinylacetat-Copolymerisaten die Ausscheidung von Paraffinen aus Mineralölen und Mineralöldestillaten wirksam unterdrücken. Die aus bestimmten Polymerisaten bestehenden Additive wirken damit einem Ansteigen der Viskosität der Kohlenwasserstoffgemische bei sinkenden Temperaturen entgegen und setzen den Stockpunkt herab. Das neue Verfahren hat sich zur Verbesserung der Fließfähigkeit von Mineralölen und deren Destillationsprodukten, unabhängig von ihrer qualitativen und quantitativen Zusammensetzung, bewährt.Surprisingly, it has been shown that the combination of ethylene-vinyl acetate-diisobutylene terpolymers with ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers effectively suppress the separation of paraffins from mineral oils and mineral oil distillates. The additives consisting of certain polymers thus counteract an increase in the viscosity of the hydrocarbon mixtures as temperatures drop and lower the pour point. The new process has proven itself to improve the flowability of mineral oils and their distillation products, regardless of their qualitative and quantitative composition.
Die erfindungsgemäß eingesetzten Ethylen-Vinylacetat-Diisobutylen-Terpolymerisate enthalten je l00 Gew.-Teile Ethylen 25 bis 78 Gew.-Teile Vinylacetat und 0,5 bis 45 Gew.-Teile Diisobutylen.

Terpolymers with 30 to 55 parts by weight of vinyl acetate and 1.0 to 27.5 parts by weight of diisobutylene per 100 parts by weight of ethylene have proven particularly useful.
Die durch Dampfdruckosmometrie gemessene mittlere Molmasse der Terpolymerisate beträgt 500 bis l0 000 g.mol⁻¹, vorzugsweise l000 bis 5000.g mol⁻¹ und insbesondere l500 bis 3500.g mol⁻¹.The average molecular weight of the terpolymers measured by vapor pressure osmometry is 500 to 10 000 g.mol⁻¹, preferably 1000 to 5000.g mol⁻¹ and in particular 1500 to 3500.g mol⁻¹.
Je l00 CH₂-Gruppen weisen sie 6 bis 20 und vorzugsweise 7 bis l5 CH₃-Gruppen in den Seitenketten auf, die nicht aus dem Acetatrest des Vinylacetats herrühren. Die Bestimmung der Anzahl CH₃ erfolgt dabei durch H-NMR-Spektroskopie.Each 100 CH₂ groups have 6 to 20 and preferably 7 to 15 CH₃ groups in the side chains, which do not result from the acetate residue of the vinyl acetate.

Sie kann z.B. durch Polymerisation des Monomerengemisches bei Drücken oberhalb von 50 MPa und Temperaturen von l50 bis 350°C in Gegenwart von Sauerstoff oder Radikale bildenden Initiatoren in Autoklaven oder Rohrreaktoren erfolgen.The production of the ethylene-vinyl acetate-diisobutylene terpolymers is known. It can e.g. by polymerization of the monomer mixture at pressures above 50 MPa and temperatures from 150 to 350 ° C. in the presence of oxygen or radical initiators in autoclaves or tubular reactors.
Diisobutylen ist ein im wesentlichen aus 2,4,4-Trimethylpenten-(l) und 2,4,4-Trimethylpenten-(2) bestehendes Gemisch. Es entsteht bei der Dimerisierung von Isobutylen (2-Methylpropen) mit sauren Katalysatiren (z.B. Ionenaustauscher).Diisobutylene is a mixture consisting essentially of 2,4,4-trimethylpentene (1) and 2,4,4-trimethylpentene (2). It is formed during the dimerization of isobutylene (2-methylpropene) with acidic catalysts (e.g. ion exchangers).
Die erfindungsgemäß eingesetzten Ethylen-Vinylacetat-Copolymerisate enthalten je l00 Gew.-Teile Ethylen 5 bis 54 Gew.-Teile Vinylacetat. Besonders bewährt haben sich Copolymerisate mit ll bis 33 Gew.-Teilen Vinylacetat je l00 Gew.-Teilen Ethylen.The ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers used according to the invention contain 5 to 54 parts by weight of vinyl acetate per 100 parts by weight of ethylene. Copolymers with 11 to 33 parts by weight of vinyl acetate per 100 parts by weight of ethylene have proven particularly useful.
Die mittlere Molmasse der Copolymerisate, die, ebenso wie die mittlere Molmasse der Terpolymerisate durch Dampfdruckosmometrie gemessen wird, beträgt 500 bis l0 000 g.mol⁻¹. Besonders bewährt haben sich Copolymerisate mit einer Molmasse von l000 bis 5000 g.mol⁻¹.The average molecular weight of the copolymers, which, like the average molecular weight of the terpolymers, is measured by vapor pressure osmometry, is 500 to 10 000 g.mol⁻¹. Copolymers with a molecular weight of 1000 to 5000 g.mol⁻¹ have proven particularly useful.
Je l00 CH₂-Gruppen weisen die Copolymerisate l bis l0 und vorzugsweise 3 bis 7 CH₃-Gruppen in den Seitenketten auf, die nicht aus dem Acetatrest des Vinylacetats herrühren. Die Bestimmung der Anzahl CH₃-Gruppen erfolgt dabei durch H-NMR-Spektroskopie.Each l00 CH₂ groups have the copolymers l to l0 and preferably 3 to 7 CH₃ groups in the side chains, which do not result from the acetate residue of the vinyl acetate. The number of CH₃ groups is determined by H-NMR spectroscopy.
Die Herstellung der Ethylen-Vinylacetat-Copolymerisate ist bekannt. Sie kann z.B. durch Polymerisation des Monomerengemisches bei Drücken von 5 bis l5 MPa und Temperaturen von 70 bis l50°C in Gegenwart Radikale bildender Initiatoren erfolgen. Als Reaktionsmedium kann ein organisches Lösungs- oder Suspensionsmittel wie Toluol eingesetzt werden.The production of the ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers is known. It can e.g. by polymerization of the monomer mixture at pressures of 5 to 15 MPa and temperatures of 70 to 150 ° C. in the presence of free radical initiators. An organic solvent or suspension medium such as toluene can be used as the reaction medium.

Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren verbessert sowohl die Fließfähigkeit von Mineralölen als auch von Mineralöldestillaten. Unter dem Begriff Mineralöle werden hierbei insbesondere Rohöle und Destillationsruckstände wie schweres Heizöl verstanden. Als Mineralöldestillate werden Kohlenwasserstofffraktionen mit einer Siedetemperatur zwischen etwa l50 und 400°C bezeichnet.
