Abstract: | Summary The formation of cyclic diamides of polyamides 4,6 and 6,6 by thermal catalytic depolymerization of the corresponding polyamides was investigated. This method was optimized by changing external factors, like: concentration of catalyst; depolymerization temperature; — time; working under nitrogen flow and under a high vacuum (10-5 mbar). The catalyst sodium-2-ethylhexanoate was used to accelerate the reaction. The different multi-component depolymerization products were analyzed by reversed phase HPLC. The formation of cyclic diamides of polyamides 4,6 and 6,6 was 10, respectively 20 wt.-%, under optimum conditions, which is not sufficient to be used as feed stock for new (co)polyamides. |
