A method for producing 3-mercaptopropionic acid and methods using same for producing a carbonic acid ester compound having a mercapto group and a thiourethane-based optical material. The present invention improves a process during the production of 3-mercaptopropionic acid, significantly increases yield, and reduces the temperature and time during vacuum distillation, thereby preventing the destruction of a product and significantly increasing productivity. The present invention allows high-purity 3-mercaptopropionic acid having an excellent color to be finally yielded; accordingly, by using same, a high-purity carbonic acid ester compound having an excellent color and a mercapto group can be inexpensively obtained. A thiourethane-based polymeric composition and a thiourethane-based optical material obtained by polymerizing same can likewise be inexpensively obtained by using said carbonic acid ester compound. Such carbonic acid ester compound can be used for the production of inexpensive thiourethane optical lenses; consequently, inexpensive optical lenses having an excellent color can be obtained.
一种生产3-巯基丙酸的方法以及使用该方法生产含有巯基的碳酸酯化合物和基于硫脲酯基的光学材料的方法。本发明改进了在生产3-巯基丙酸过程中的工艺,显著提高了产量,并减少了真空蒸馏过程中的温度和时间,从而防止产品的破坏并显著提高生产效率。本发明允许最终得到高纯度、颜色优异的3-巯基丙酸;因此,通过使用该酸,可以廉价获得高纯度、颜色优异且含有巯基的碳酸酯化合物。通过聚合该碳酸酯化合物获得的基于硫脲酯基的聚合物组合物和基于硫脲酯基的光学材料同样可以通过使用上述碳酸酯化合物廉价获得。这种碳酸酯化合物可用于生产廉价的硫脲酯光学透镜;因此,可以获得具有优异颜色的廉价光学透镜。
