Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for treating the low molecular weight compounds which can be extracted from polyamide 6 or from copolyamides based on caprolactam.
- the present invention relates to a process for the production of polyamide 6 or copolyamides based on caprolactam.
- Polyamides their production and their use as engineering plastics are known. They are described, for example, in "Kunststoff-Handbuch", edited by G. W. Becker and D. Braun, published by Hanser-Verlag in Kunststoff and Vienna in 1998, volume 3 "Technical thermoplastics", volume 4 "Polyamides".
- the present invention relates to polyamide 6 and copolyamides based on caprolactam.
- Polyamide 6 is the homopolymer of caprolactam.
- Copolyamides based on caprolactam for the purposes of the present invention are copolyamides which contain at least 50% by weight of monomer units derived from caprolactam.
- these copolyamides based on caprolactam contain other repeating units connected by amide groups.
- these can be repeat units that are derived from adipic acid and hexamethylenediamine, that is to say polyamide 6,6 units.
- it can be repeating units derived from aminocarboxylic acids, for example the repeating units of polyamide 11 or polyamide 12.
- Polyamide 6 or copolyamides based on caprolactam can be produced by various processes.
- the production can be carried out, for example, by the hydrolytic polymerization of caprolactam. this is that technically most important processes. It is also the method that is preferred according to the present invention.
- the preparation can also be carried out by alkaline lactam polymerization.
- the processes for the production of polyamide 6 or copolyamides based on caprolactam are described, for example, in the above-mentioned plastics handbook, vol. 3 "Technical thermoplastics",
- Sub-volume 4 "Polyamides" on pages 22 to 75.
- Polyamide 6 or copolyamides based on caprolactam are usually produced by the hydrolytic polymerization of caprolactam. If copolyamides based on caprolactam are to be produced, the necessary comonomers are added.
- the comonomers are preferably either mixtures of dicarboxylic acids and diamines or aminocarboxylic acids or lactams.
- hydrolytic polymerization as described, for example, in Chapter 2.2.2.2.4 in the abovementioned plastics handbook, volume 3 "Technical thermoplastics", sub-volume 4 "polyamides", is generally carried out as polymerization under normal pressure by adding usually 1 to 5% by weight of water at temperatures of usually 240 to 270 ° C. with the exclusion of atmospheric oxygen. You can with water-releasing compounds such as aminocarboxylic acid or AH
- Salt salt from adipic acid and hexamethylene diamine
- water usually started by water.
- the molar mass of the polyamide is predetermined by the water content, but in practice is expediently stabilized by regulators, for example by carboxylic acids or amines.
- VK vertical tube reactors
- the usual procedure is as follows: The water-containing caprolactam (optionally together with the comonomers and optionally together with other auxiliaries such as molecular weight regulators) is filled into the VK- Pipe. Excess water is distilled off here in order to achieve sufficiently high molar masses. The melt then flows through the tube in usually 15 to 30 hours at atmospheric pressure, being kept at a temperature between usually 240 and 270 ° C. At the end of the VK tube, the polyamide melt is pressed, for example with a gear pump, through round-hole nozzles as bristles into a water bath, cooled and then granulated.
- low-molecular compounds are formed. These are in particular oligomeric compounds which arise from caprolactam and, if appropriate, also from the comonomers. These low molecular weight compounds have a negative effect on the property profile of polyamide 6 or copolyamides based on caprolactam and are therefore usually removed.
- the cyclic dimer of caprolactam has a negative effect on the property profile of polyamide 6 or copolyamides based on
- the low molecular weight fractions result in products such as Injection molded bodies and the like, which are produced from the polyamides, are adversely affected by the fact that the low molecular weight components diffuse to the surface and form a greasy film there.
- the low molecular weight components diffused to the surface adversely affect the surface appearance of the products made from the polyamides. The gloss is reduced, the color impression is impaired.
- the low molecular weight compounds can be removed, for example, by extraction.
- the extraction is usually carried out by water or by liquids which predominantly contain water.
- Polyamide 6 or the copolyamide based on caprolactam usually dries. This happens, for example, at temperatures between 90 and 130 ° C in an inert gas stream. For example, nitrogen can be used. By increasing the drying temperature to, for example, 180 to 190 ° C, the molecular weight of the polyamide can be further increased for special applications by means of a so-called post-condensation.
- the one loaded with the low molecular weight compounds is usually used
- Water extracted from the extraction This can be done, for example, in such a way that the water or at least most of the water is removed by distillation.
- a mixture of caprolactam, its oligomers and other low molecular weight compounds extracted from the polyamide then remains in the distillation sump. This mixture contains in particular a very high one
- the mixture can be worked up in various ways.
- the mixture can, for example, be polymerized discontinuously in an autoclave together with further caprolactam.
- the mixture can be added to the polymerization to polyamide 6 or to copolyamides based on caprolactam in a VK tube.
- the following is known:
- US-A 5 077 381 discloses a process for the hydrolysis of the constituents extractable from polymerized caprolactam at temperatures from 220 ° C. to 290 ° C. and with residence times of 2 to 6 hours in the presence of 20% water.
- EP-A 0 608 454 discloses a process for the depolymerization of polyamide 6 wastes by hydrolysis, a temperature of 280 ° C., a residence time of 3 hours and an excess pressure caused by the Water content is determined to be preferred from 8.5 bar.
- the disadvantage of the processes known from the prior art is in particular that the cyclic dimer of caprolactam polymerizes into the polyamide only very slowly.
- polyamide 6 or copolyamides based on caprolactam which are obtained in such a way that a certain proportion of caprolactam and optionally comonomers, the concentrated extract from the polyamide production is added to their polymerization, a higher proportion of low molecular weight compounds, in particular have a higher proportion of cyclic dimers of caprolactam when they leave the polymerization stage than is the case with polyamides in which no proportion of concentrated extract from polyamide production is added to the polymerization.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a method which makes it possible to polymerize to polyamide 6 or
- This object is achieved by the process for converting the low molecular weight compounds extractable from polyamide 6 or from copolyamides based on caprolactam, these together with 10 to 15% by weight of water over a period of 3.5 to 6 hours at a temperature from 220 ° C to 270 ° C.
- the process according to the invention has the advantage of supplying a product with a low proportion of cyclic dimer of caprolactam at relatively low water contents and pressures and thus simple and inexpensive apparatus. This also applies if the starting material (from polyamide 6 or from copolyamides based on caprolactam extractable low molecular weight components) has a high proportion of cyclic dimer of caprolactam.
- the product and caprolactam mentioned have a mass ratio of 1 to 4 to 1 to 2.5, particularly preferably 1 to 2.6 to 1 to 3.
- the polymerization is preferably carried out in a two-stage VK tube.
- Polyamides preferred according to the invention are selected from the group consisting of polyamide 6 and copolyamides based on caprolactam, which contain at least 90% by weight of monomer units based on caprolactam. The remaining 10% by weight are preferably derived from the repeating units of polyamide 6,6, polyamide 11 or polyamide 12.
- polyamide 6 is particularly preferred.
- Polyamide 6 had been extracted as starting material is used.
- caprolactam and dimeric caprolactam were determined by HPLC. Extract determination by extraction with water and weighing after evaporation.
- the 1st stage for the conversion of extract was operated at the inlet with a temperature of 220 ° C to 240 ° C and at the outlet with 250 ° C to 270 ° C. It was charged with a mixture of 88 to 92 wt .-% extract and 12 to 8 wt .-% water (the sum of both components made up 100%). A pressure of 20 to 25 bar was set accordingly. The residence time in the 1st stage was 3.5 to 6 hours.
- Caprolactam was added to the 1st stage product and this mixture was polymerized in the VK tube.
- the mass ratio of extract to caprolactam was 1 to 4 to 1 to 2.5. It was predominantly 1 in 2.8.
- the dimer content before the 1st stage was 4 to 7% by weight.
- the extract content after the 1st stage was 9 to 12% by weight, the dimer content 0.8 to 1.5% by weight.
- the extract content was 9 to 10% by weight, the dimer content 0.5 to 0.8% by weight.
