Xylylenediamine composition, and method for producing polyamide resin

摘要

[1] A xylylenediamine composition comprising xylylenediamine and bis(methylbenzyl)amine, wherein the content of bis(methylbenzyl)amine is 0.0005 to 0.1 part by mass relative to 100 parts by mass of xylylenediamine; and [2] a method for producing a polyamide resin, which comprises a step of introducing a diamine containing xylylenediamine, a dicarboxylic acid and bis(methylbenzyl)amine in an amount of 0.0005 to 0.1 part by mass relative to 100 parts by mass of the xylylenediamine into a reaction system to carry out a polycondensation reaction.
