Usage

General Description

Dicyclopentadiene, also known as DCPD, is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C10H12. It is a clear, colorless liquid at room temperature with a distinct odor. Dicyclopentadiene is widely used in the production of resins, plastics, and elastomers, and as a chemical intermediate in the synthesis of various other compounds. It is commonly utilized in the manufacturing of high-performance polymers, adhesives, and coatings, due to its excellent heat and chemical resistance properties. Dicyclopentadiene is also used in the production of cyclopentadiene-based resins, which have applications in the automotive, aerospace, and electronics industries. However, exposure to Dicyclopentadiene should be minimized, as it has been linked to potential health hazards such as skin and eye irritation, and respiratory issues when inhaled. Therefore, proper safety measures should be taken when handling this chemical.

Application of hierarchical pore molecular sieve in preparation process of cyclopentadiene and JP-10 aviation fuel

The invention relates to an application of a hierarchical pore molecular sieve in a the preparation process of cyclopentadiene and JP-10 aviation fuel. The hierarchical pore molecular sieve is one or two or more of an H-ZSM-5 molecular sieve, an H-beta molecular sieve, an H-Y molecular sieve, an H-USY molecular sieve, a La-Y molecular sieve and an H-MOR molecular sieve with a hierarchical pore structure, a sulfonated SBA-15 molecular sieve, a sulfonated MCM-41 molecular sieve, a sulfonated Ti-SBA-15 molecular sieve, a sulfonated MCM-41 molecular sieve, a sulfonated Zr-MCM-41 molecular sieve and a sulfonated Zr-SBA-15 molecular sieve; and the hierarchical pore structure comprises micropores and mesopores. The catalyst and the raw materials used in the method are cheap and easy to obtain, the preparation process is simple, and the hierarchical pore molecular sieve has high activity and selectivity for rearrangement reaction of furfuryl alcohol, hydrogenation reaction of hydroxyl cyclopentenone and dehydration reaction. The invention provides a cheap and efficient synthesis method for synthesizing the JP-10 aviation fuel from a lignocellulose-based platform compound furfuryl alcohol.

Method for preparing JP-10 aviation fuel from furfuryl alcohol

The invention relates to a method for preparing JP-10 aviation fuel from furfuryl alcohol. The method for preparing the JP-10 aviation fuel by adopting the furfuryl alcohol as a raw material comprises the following five steps: step I, enabling a furfuryl alcohol solution to have a rearrangement reaction to prepare hydroxylcyclopentenone under the condition of an alkaline catalyst or no catalyst; step II, enabling the hydroxylcyclopentenone to react with hydrogen under the catalysis of a hydrogenation catalyst to prepare 1,3-cyclopentanediol; step III, preparing cyclopentadiene or dicyclopentadiene by dehydrating the 1,3-cyclopentanediol; step IV, enabling the cyclopentadiene and the dicyclopentadiene to have an isomerization reaction to generate hanging dicyclopentadiene; and step V, hydrogenating the hanging dicyclopentadiene to generate hanging tetrahydro-dicyclopentadiene, and then rectifying and purifying to obtain the JP-10 aviation fuel. Raw materials used in the method are cheap and easy to obtain, the preparation process is simple, and the activity and selectivity for the rearrangement reaction of the furfuryl alcohol, the hydrogenation reaction of the hydrocyclopentenone and the dehydration reaction is relatively high. The invention provides a synthetic method with low cost and high efficiency for synthesizing the cyclopentadiene or the dicyclopentadiene from lignocelluloses-based platform compound and furfuryl alcohol.
