Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

268 Grams of 5-sulfoisophthalic acid sodium salt were placed together with 1600 g of ion exchanged water in a reactor equipped with a stirrer. The contents in the reactor were heated with stirring to 80° C. so that the sodium salt was dissolved in water. A solution of barium chloride dissolved in an amount of 104 g into 900 ml of ion exchanged water was then gradually added dropwise to the thus obtained solution. The resulting mixture was cooled to 30° C. and filtered to separate white precipitates. The precipitates were dispersed in 3000 g of ion exchanged water. The dispersion was heated to 80° C., maintained at that temperature for 1 hour, cooled to 30° C. and then filtered. The precipitates were washed with water. Such a procedure including dispersion, heating, filtration and washing steps was repeated once more. The thus obtained precipitates were dried at 120° C. for 5 hours to obtain 265 g of 5-sulfoisophthalic acid barium salt as a white powder. The atomic absorption analysis revealed that the 5-sulfoisophthalic acid barium salt powder contained 21.9% by weight of barium and 120 ppm by weight of sodium.
