What Is a Neoprene Brace?
Chloroprene is a colorless, volatile liquid with a special pungent odor at room temperature. It is slightly soluble in water and easily soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol, ether, benzene and chloroform. It is an important organic chemical used as an intermediate in organic synthesis and as a monomer for neoprene.

Vapor mixed with air has the danger of burning and exploding; contact with strong oxidants can cause combustion; vapour can diffuse to a distance, and reignite when exposed to open flames; inhalation of high concentrations of this product vapor can cause poisoning and even death. Initially there are irritation symptoms, and gradually appear the nervous system damage.

In 1931, DuPont of the United States first realized the industrial production of chloroprene from calcium carbide acetylene. Before the 1960s, this was the only way to produce chloroprene industrially. Acetylene generates vinyl acetylene in an acidic aqueous solution of cuprous chloride at 80 ° C, and the latter is further reacted with hydrogen chloride in a solution of cuprous chloride in hydrochloric acid to produce chloroprene: CHtriCH + CHtriCH CH2 = CHC Three CH
CH2 = CHC CH + HCl CH2 = CClCH = CH2
This method has a long history, mature technology, but high cost, and acetylene and vinyl acetylene are easily explosive, and production safety is poor.
Since the 1960s, since the price of acetylene is higher than that of butadiene, the latter has been turned to raw materials. In 1966, the Bitaclo plant in France built the first chloroprene plant from chlorination of butadiene. The gas phase addition of butadiene and chlorine gas at 300 ° C, the product 3,4-dichloro-1-butene (40%) is dehydrochlorinated in a heated alkaline solution to produce chloroprene: CH2 = CHCH = CH2 + Cl2 ClH2CCH = CHCH2 + CH2 = CHCHClCH2Cl
CH2 = CHCHClCH2Cl + NaOH CH2 = CClCH = CH2 + H2O + NaCl
In the process of dehydrochlorination and refining, a small amount of oxygen should be excluded to prevent automatic oxidation, and a polymerization inhibitor chlorination needs to be added. The cis and trans 1,4-dichloro-2-butene (60%) formed at the same time in the reaction can be used as raw materials for the synthesis of adiponitrile and butanediol. Isomerized to 3,4-dichloro-1-butene in the presence of cuprous chloride, which is then used to make chloroprene. The method has low cost, high product quality and good production safety.
