Abstract:The influence of the caprolactam quality on the characteristics of polycaproamide thereof was elucidated.Among the main factors governing the quality of polycaproamide (PCA) is the quality of the raw material, caprolactam (CL) [1].We have found earlier [2] that caprolactam undergoes major changes during preparation for polymerization. Accumulation of the oxidation products begins even during transportation of liquid CL, as well as during melting of crystalline CL and storage of CL in the liquid state [3].It wa… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
