Abstract
AbstractSummary: Utilizing the thermal stability of ionic liquid, micrometer‐sized Nylon‐6 particles were successfully prepared by hydrolytic polymerization of ε‐caprolactam at high temperature with polyvinyl pyrrolidone as stabilizer in ionic liquids, 1‐butyl‐3‐methyl imidazolium tetrafluoroborate, [Bmim][BF4] and N,N‐diethyl‐N‐methyl‐N‐(2‐methoxyethyl)ammonium bis(trifluoro‐methanesulfonyl)amide, [DEME][TFSA]. The obtained particles had a unique shape because Nylon‐6 is a crystalline polymer. Viscosity‐average molecular weights of Nylon‐6 prepared in [Bmim][BF4] and [DEME][TFSA] at 180 °C for 48 h were 4200 and 2200, respectively.
