Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for granulating polymer melts in a granulation chamber in which a cutting device is accommodated at a pressure above ambient pressure. In a first step, the granulating chamber is flooded with a gas which is inert in relation to the polymer melt and has a pressure at which granulation is carried out. The polymer melt is then injected into the granulating chamber. The gas is finally expelled from the granulating chamber by a liquid once the polymer melt starts to flow through the cutting device, the melt being cut into pellets.
Abstract:
A thermoplastic molding composition having little intrinsic color is produced from a graft copolymer and a thermoplastic polymer. The graft copolymer is produced from a soft elastomeric particulate graft base obtained by polymerization of a conjugated diene alone or with a small amount of a monoethylenically unsaturated monomer, upon which is grafted a vinylaromatic monomer and acrylonitrile and optionally another monoethylenically unsaturated monomer. The thermoplastic polymer is a copolymer of a vinylaromatic monomer and acrylonitrile and optionally an additional monoethylenically unsaturated monomer. The thermoplastic molding composition has a low level of intrinsic color coupled with good mechanical properties and can be processed by, for example, extrusion, injection molding, calendaring, blow molding, compression molding, or sintering.

Abstract:
The procedure for granulating polymer melts (21) in a granulation chamber (20) to manufacture polyamide, comprises flooding the granulating chamber with a nitrogen/air in relation to the polymer melt, injecting the polymer melt into the granulating chamber and expelling the nitrogen/air from the granulating chamber by a liquid once the polymer melt starts to flow through the cutting device. After expelling the nitrogen/air, a further polymer melt is injected into the chamber. In the granulation chamber, a cutting device is accommodated at a pressure above the ambient pressure.

After expelling the nitrogen/air, a further polymer melt is injected into the chamber. In the granulation chamber, a cutting device is accommodated at a pressure above the ambient pressure. The nitrogen/air shows a pressure, with which the granulation is carried out. The polymer melt in the cutting device is cut into pellets. The granulated pellets with the liquid are discharged from the granulation chamber and subsequently separated from the liquid. The pressure in the granulation chamber is 2-15 bar. An independent claim is included for a device for granulating polymer melts in the granulation chamber.
