Method for producing polyfunctional acrylate
The present invention provides a production method of a multifunctional acrylate with a reduced tin content which includes adding an acid to a mixture containing an organotin compound and a multifunctional acrylate and distilling the mixture containing the acid.
1. A method for producing a multifunctional acrylate with a reduced tin content comprising adding an acid to a mixture comprising a dialkyltin oxide and a multifunctional acrylate and distilling the mixture comprising the acid.
2. The production method according to claim 1 wherein the amount of the acid to be added is 50-500 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the content of tin in the mixture comprising the dialkyltin oxide and the multifunctional acrylate.
3. A method for producing a multifunctional acrylate comprising
step 1 comprising a transesterification reaction of an acrylate and a polyhydric alcohol in the presence of a dialkyltin oxide to give a reaction mixture comprising the dialkyltin oxide and a multifunctional acrylate,
step 2 comprising evaporating a compound having a boiling point lower than the dialkyltin oxide and the multifunctional acrylate from the reaction mixture to give a residue comprising the dialkyltin oxide and the multifunctional acrylate,
step 3 comprising distilling the residue to give a distillate comprising the dialkyltin oxide and the multifunctional acrylate and a distillation residue comprising the dialkyltin oxide, and
step 4 comprising adding an acid to the distillate and distilling the mixture comprising the acid to give a multifunctional acrylate with a reduced tin content.
