PRODUCTION OF BLOCK COPOLYAMIDE FROM OMEGA-LACTAM

摘要

A process for producing high impact block copolyamide is described, comprising anion polymerizing omega -lactam in the presence of a prepolymer polymerization accelerator. The prepolymer is prepared by reacting a butadiene homopolymer and/or butadiene-acrylonitrile copolymer containing hydroxyl groups at the terminals thereof with polymethylene polyphenylene isocyanate or tolylene diisocyanate at an equivalent ratio of isocyanate group to hydroxyl group (NCO/OH) of 1:1 or more. With the thus-produced high impact block copolyamide, impact strength is greatly improved, and bleeding of polybutadiene is not observed.
