Abstract: The present invention relates to a polymerization device for the production of melts of thermoplastic polymers in which the heat of the discharged product can be recovered and used for preheating of the usable raw materials. In addition, the present invention relates to a corresponding method for the production of thermoplastic polymers.

Abstract: The invention relates to a reactor in the form of a VK tube (VK: simplified continuous), for the polymerisation of polyamides, the reactor being subdivided into an upper and lower reactor region, which are controllable independently of each other. Likewise, the invention relates to a method for the production of polyamides in which such a reactor is used.

Abstract: The present application relates to an extraction reactor with which granular material, in particular granular polyamide, can undergo extraction, soluble components being dissolved out of the granular material with an extraction liquid during the extraction. In the case of polyamide materials, these are for example oligomeric or monomeric components which have remained in the granular material during the polycondensation reaction for the production of the polyamide materials.

Abstract: The invention relates to a conveying device for conveying granular material that is stored in a source (10), for example polyamide 6 (PA6) granules, to multiple receiving points (11, 12, 13, . . . ), the conveying device having a number of injectors (11, 12, 13, . . . ) corresponding to the number of receiving points. Also disclosed is a method for conveying granular material, for example PA6 granules, from a source (10) to multiple receiving points.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the continuous production of a solution of salts, in particular for the production of hexamethylenediamine adipate and a device for implementing such a method. According to the invention, it is proposed to convert, in a first step, a substoichiometric quantity of alkane diamine in a ratio to the alkane dicarboxylic acid in water and, in a subsequent second step, to implement making-up with alkane diamine, adjustment of the stoichiometric ratios being effected via a pH value measurement at a constant temperature.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for direct, continuous modification of polymer melts with additives in the side stream and is distinguished by a very high degree of flexibility in product change-overs.
