Abstract

Nylon 6-10 has been prepared by continuous interfacial polycondensation hexamethylenedlamine and sebacoyl chloride in a stirred system. The effect of monomer concentration and stirring on the intrinsic viscosity of the polyamide 6-10 solution in m-cresol was measured.

As stirring (RPM) and monomer increased the intrinsic and the polymer yield through a maximum. Diffusion coefficients (D_AB) for hexamethylenedlamine were for hexamethylenedlamine were and were used for the calculations of j_D factors and K/DAB ratios. A relationship and j_D factors was established by a correlation curve.
