Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for preparing a polyaryl ether by reacting components (a1) and (a2) in the presence of a carbonate compound (C) to obtain a salt-containing polymer (SP) comprising the polyaryl ether and a salt (S). After the reaction, the salt (S) is extracted from the salt-containing polymer (SP) to obtain a desalinated polymer (DP) comprising the polyaryl ether.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of an aliphatic or partially aromatic polyamide, in which an aqueous composition of the monomers is subjected to an oligomerization at elevated temperature and increased pressure, the reaction mixture is optionally subjected to a first decompression to reduce the water content, the (optionally decompressed) reaction mixture is heated within a short time to a temperature above the melting temperature of the polyamides and the heated reaction mixture is subjected to a (further) decompression to reduce the water content and to an after-polymerization.

Abstract:
A method for desalinating a salt-containing polymer (SP) comprising a polyaryl ether having a softening temperature TS and a salt (S), comprising the steps of a) providing the salt-containing polymer (SP) at a first temperature T1 above the softening temperature TS of the polyaryl ether, b) contacting the salt-containing polymer (SP) provided in step a) with an extractant (E) to obtain a desalinated polymer (DP) comprising the polyaryl ether, and a salt-containing extractant (SE) comprising the extractant (E) and the salt (S).
