СПОСОБ ДВУХСТАДИЙНОЙ ПОЛИМЕРИЗАЦИИ В РАСПЛАВЕ ДЛЯПОЛУЧЕНИЯ ПОЛИБЕНЗИМИДАЗОЛА, ВКЛЮЧАЮЩИЙ УЛУЧШЕННУЮ ТВЕРДОФАЗНУЮ ПОЛИМЕРИЗАЦИЮ

摘要

A process for the production of high molecular weight polybenzimidazole by one: providing a first reaction vessel; charging the reaction vessel with at least one aromatic hydrocarbon tetraamine, and a heterocylic ring making up the dicarboxylic component; heating the reactants under agitation in a substantially oxygen-free atmosphere with agitation until the agitator torque is about 1.5 times the torque before a rise in viscosity begins; terminating the agitation while continuing to heat the reaction mixture to about 230° C. while allowing the reaction mass to foam; cooling the reaction mass to a friable foamed mass; crushing the friable foamed mass to obtain a ground prepolymer; and two: providing a second reaction vessel, the second reaction vessel being a high intensity reaction vessel; transferring the ground prepolymer to the second reaction vessel; heating the ground prepolymer under agitation to over 315° C. at atmospheric pressure for a time of about 90 minutes.
