Abstract
The anionic polymerization of e-caprolactam in the presence of aromatic polyimides as activators has been studied under adiabatic conditions. It has been shown that despite the crosslinked structure the produced graft copolymers of polycaproamide and polyimides contain the crystalline phase and are characterized by better water resistance and thermal stability, a higher content of the gel fraction, and improved mechanical properties as compared to copolymers prepared under the so-called isothermal conditions. It has been demonstrated that the catalytic system MgBr-e-caprolactam-aromatic polyimide may be used for the anionic copolymerization of e-caprolactam with ω-dodecanelactam, and experimental conditions providing a copolymer yield of 75% have been developed.
