Method for continuously polymerizing in mass quantities and taylor reactor for carrying out this method

摘要

A Taylor reactor ( 1 ) according to FIG. 1, comprising 1. an annular reaction volume ( 2 ) which widens in the flow direction and is defined by an outer reactor wall ( 3 ), a rotor ( 4 ) which is mounted rotatably at the end ( 4.1 ) in the reactor floor ( 5 ) and at its other end ( 4.2 ) is unmounted, and a reactor floor ( 5 ) having a seal ( 6 ) for the drive shaft ( 7 ), 2. an inlet region ( 8 ) above the reactor floor ( 5 ), having at least one side feed ( 8.1 ) and/or at least one feed ( 8.1 ) through the reactor floor ( 5 ) for the reactants and/or the process media, 3. an outlet region ( 9 ) which is disposed above the annular reaction volume ( 2 ), widens further beyond the annular reaction volume ( 2 ) in the flow direction, and subsequently tapers toward a product offtake ( 10 ), 4. a product offtake ( 10 ) which at its greatest diameter opens toward the outlet region ( 9 ) and tapers in the other direction, and 5. a pressure maintenance valve ( 11 ); and its use for continuous bulk polymerization.
