    Abstract: Caprolactam is obtained from mixtures which contain polymers or thermoplastic molding materials having the repeating unit -[-N(H)-(CH2)5-C(O)-]-, by depolymerization at elevated temperatures in the presence of a base under reduced pressure or in the presence of water, by using a mixture essentially comprising, from 50 to 99.9 % by weight of a polymer or of a thermoplastic molding material having the repeating unit -[-N(H)-(CH2)5-C(O)-]-; from 0.1 to 50 % by weight of additives selected from the group consisting of inorganic fillers, organic and inorganic pigments and dyes; from 0 to 10 % by weight of organic and/or inorganic additives; from 0 to 40 % by weight of non-polyamide-containing polymers and from 0 to 20 % by weight of polyamides, with the exception of polycaprolactam and copolyamides prepared from caprolactam, and carrying out the depolymerization in the presence of a base under reduced pressure, the water content of the mixture used being not more than 0.01 % by weight, or carrying out the depolymerization in the presence of water without the addition of acid or base at from 270 to 350 C and pressure from 80 to 150 kPa and a weight ratio of water to polymer or thermoplastic molding material of from 1 : 1 to 20 : 1 and in a reaction time of less than 3 hours.

    Abstract: Caprolactam is produced from mixtures including polymers orthermoplastic moulded materials containing the repetitativestructural unit -[N(H)-(CH2)5-C(O)-]-, by depolymerization atelevated temperatures in the presence of a base at reducedpressure or in the presence of water by using a mixture consistingof the following components, in wt.%: from 50 to 99.9 polymer orthermoplastic moulded materials containing the repetitativestructural unit -[N(H)-(CH2)5-C(O)-]-, from 0.1 to 50 additivesselected from inorganic fillers, organic and inorganic pigmentsand dyestuffs, from 0 to 10 organic and/or inorganic additives,from 0 to 40 non-polyamide-containing polymers, and from 0 to 20polyamides, with the exception of polycaprolactam andco-polyamides produced from caprolactam. Depolymerization occursin the presence of a base under reduced pressure, the watercontent of the mixture used is not more than 0.01% wt., or in thepresence of water without any addition of acid or base attemperatures ranging from 270 to 350°C, weight ratio between waterand polymer or the thermoplastic moulded material from 1:1 to 20:1and reaction time less than 3 hours.

    Abstract: The invention concerns the simultaneous preparation of caprolactam and hexamethylene diamine from adipodinitrile, by the following steps: (a) the adipodinitrile is partially hydrogenated, producing a mixture substantially containing 6-aminocapronitrile, hexamethylene diamine, ammonia, adipodinitrile and hexamethylene imine (= "the mixture"); (b) the mixture obtained in step (a) is distilled, producing ammonia, as the forerunnings, and a residue I, in the presence of a compound A which is inert in the distillation conditions, the ammonia not being separated totally; (c) the residue I, substantially containing "the mixture", inert compound A and ammonia, the ammonia content being less than that of the mixture used in step (b), is subjected to a second distillation, producing a mixture of the inert compound A and ammonia, as the forerunnings, and a residue II; (d) the base II, substantially containing "the mixture" and inert compound A, is subjected to distillation in a third column, producing the inert compound A, as the forerunnings, and a residue III; (e) the base III, substantially containing "the mixture" and optionally an inert compound B, is subjected to distillation in a fourth column, producing forerunnings KP1, which substantially contain hexamethylene imine, optionally inert compound B and hexamethylene diamine, and a residue IV; (f) the forerunnings KP1 are subjected in a fifth column to distillation, producing forerunnings KP2, which substantially contain hexamethylene imine and optionally inert compound B, and a residue V, which substantially contains hexamethylene diamine with a degree of purity of at least 95 %, the forerunnings KP2 being fed to the third column or optionally only partially fed to the third column, and the rest being discarded; and (g) the residue IV, substantially containing 6-aminocapronitrile and adipodinitrile, is subjected in a sixth column to distillation, producing 6-aminocapronitrile with a degree of purity of at least 95 %, as forerunnings, and adiponitrile in the residue. The resultant 6-aminocapronitrile is cyclized to form caprolactam.
