Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for synthesizing a polyamide, in which method an aqueous solution is sprayed onto the polyamide before and/or during a solid-state post-condensation process. The aqueous solution comprises at least a first compound, selected from the group comprising phosphoric acid, fully neutralized salts of phosphoric acid, partially neutralized salts of phosphoric acid, and mixtures thereof, and a second compound, selected from the group comprising an acid, an anhydride, a lactone, ammonia, an amine, and mixtures thereof, with the stipulation that the second compound is not phosphoric acid and is not phosphoric acid anhydride. The spraying occurs at a temperature that lies below the boiling point of water. A polyamide that can be produced by means of the method according to the invention can be used in particular to produce films, monofilaments, fibers, threads, or textile sheet materials.
Abstract:
Process for producing polyamides that are stable during processing, by treating the polyamide during the solid-phase postcondensation process with a gas which comprises carrier gas (inert gas), water, and acid, or an anhydride or lactone or a mixture of these or, respectively, comprises ammonia, or amine, or a mixture of these, at a temperature from 130 to 200° C. and at a pressure of from 0.01 to 10 bar.
Abstract:
A process for producing polyamides from the corresponding monomers and/or prepolymers comprises the steps of (a) reacting the monomers and/or prepolymers and optionally further components under polyamide-forming reaction conditions to form polyamide, (b) treating the polyamide obtained in step (a) in a kneader above the melting temperature of the polyamide, (c) further processing the polyamide from step (b) into pellet, film, fiber or moldings, preferably pelletizing the polyamide, (d) extracting some or all unconverted monomers and any product dimers and oligomers and also optionally further components from the polyamide and/or drying the polyamide.
