Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an improved method for manufacturing a polyvinyl pyrrolidone. SOLUTION: In the method for manufacturing the polyvinyl pyrrolidone by a polymerization initiated by a free radical in the presence of an initiator, the polymerization is carried out by spray polymerization or droplet polymerization. The initiator to be used is an organic or inorganic peroxide, a hydroperoxide, a persulfate, an azo compound, a photo-initiator or a redox initiator. The polymerization is carried out in a water solution at a polymerization temperature of 70-250°C by forming and spraying droplets in an inert gas flow or forming droplets and carrying out the polymerization in a spray tower.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an improved method for producing a copolymer which is created by copolymerizing at least one hydrophilic N-vinyllactam and at least one hydrophobic comonomer and which is soluble in water to become a clear solution by free radical copolymerization in an organic solvent.SOLUTION: After 70-99 wt.% of used N-vinyllactam is transformed, a combination of: distilling 3-30% of the reaction mixture away and continuing polymerization in the same solvent; and performing the polymerization under pressure so as to avoid evaporation of components, is performed.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide methods for producing vinyllactam copolymers, which comprise causing radical polymerization of water-soluble N-vinyllactam and hydrophobic comonomers in an organic solvent in the presence of an initiator. SOLUTION: The following process measures are combined appropriately and comprise (i) performing polymerization under reflux, (ii) adding at least 5 mol% of N-vinyllactam to the polymerization mixture if at least 70 mol% of the total amount of hydrophobic monomer used have completely reacted, (iii) returning the condensate formed in the reflux from below to the polymerization mixture, (iv) introducing the initiator in the form of a solution in an organic solvent from below into the polymerization mixture, (v) adding N-vinyllactam to the reflux, (vi) distilling off a portion of the solvent and continuing polymerization following conversion of 70 to 99% by weight of the N-vinyllactam used, (vii) introducing at least one monomer from below into the polymerization mixture, and (viii) performing polymerization under pressure so as to avoid vaporization of the component.
