Abstract
The present invention provides a polythiol composition containing, as the main component, a polythiol compound (a) having two or more mercapto groups, and containing 0.5% by mass or less of a nitrogen-containing compound (b) in which at least one mercapto group in the polythiol compound (a) is substituted with a group represented by formula (1).
Claims11
A method for producing a polythiol composition, which comprising purifying a polythiol composition containing, as the main component, a polythiol compound (a) having two or more mercapto groups, and containing more than 0.5% by mass of a nitrogen-containing compound (b) in which at least one mercapto group in the polythiol compound (a) is substituted with a group represented by formula (1) below:
- to produce a polythiol composition containing 0.5% by mass or less of the nitrogen-containing compound (b),
- wherein the purifying process has at least:
- a process (1) of distilling the polythiol composition;
- and
- a process (2) of purifying the polythiol composition by a means other than distillation.
A method for producing a polythiol composition, which comprising purifying a polythiol composition containing, as the main component, a polythiol compound (a) having two or more mercapto groups, and containing more than 0.5% by mass of a nitrogen-containing compound (b) in which at least one mercapto group in the polythiol compound (a) is substituted with a group represented by formula (1) below:
- to produce a polythiol composition containing 0.5% by mass or less of the nitrogen-containing compound (b),
- wherein the purifying process has a process of washing the polythiol composition containing more than 0.5% by mass of the nitrogen-containing compound (b) with 6N or more of an acid.
A method for producing a polythiol composition containing, as the main component, a polythiol compound (a) having two or more mercapto groups, and containing 0.5% by mass or less of a nitrogen-containing compound (b) in which at least one mercapto group in the polythiol compound (a) is substituted with a group represented by formula (1) below:
- wherein the method has a process of hydrolyzing an isothiuronium salt that is a raw material of the polythiol compound (a) at 80° C. or higher.
A polythiol composition containing, as the main component, a polythiol compound (a) having two or more mercapto groups, and containing 0.5% by mass or less of a nitrogen-containing compound (b) in which at least one mercapto group in the polythiol compound (a) is substituted with a group represented by formula (1) below:
