Determination of synthesis conditions of medium, high, and overbased alkali calcium sulfonate
This review covers a method for preparing an overbased detergent-dispersion additive called overbased calcium sulfonate solution (OBCSS) containing 38.9% (w/w) CaCO3, with a total base number (TBN) value of 436 mg KOH, starting from neutral calcium sulfonate solution (NCSS).(1,2) After the column conditions were optimized, the reaction parameters (P-CO2 and the amounts of Ca(OH)(2), water, and monoethanolamine (MEA)) were examined throughout the tests. The first product medium alkali calcium sulfonate solution (MACSS) with 8.5% (w/w) CaCO3 (TBN = 95 mg KOH/g) is obtained, but higher base values could not be reached. In the second stage, monoethanolamine is added to the feed as a promoter and high alkali calcium sulfonate solution (HACSS) containing 30.4% (w/w) CaCO3 with the value of TBN = 274 mg KOH/g is obtained. In the third stage of the study, targeted product OBCSS is obtained by using HACSS as a feedstock component instead of NCSS.
