  • Patent number: 11851528
    Abstract: Processes for preparing a polyamide, a polyamide material obtained by such processes, a nylon salt to be used therein, and processes for making the nylon salt are disclosed. The processes for preparing the polyamide include a direct solid state polymerization process. The salt used herein is a granulate material, prepared by a process, comprising spraying an aqueous solution comprising a diamine and a dicarboxylic acid dissolved in an aqueous medium, or an aqueous slurry comprising a diammonium dicarboxylate salt dispersed in an aqueous medium directly obtained from such an aqueous solution, onto or in a fluidized bed of diammonium dicarboxylate salt particles, while evaporating the aqueous medium, thereby forming a granulate salt material.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 28, 2021
    Date of Patent: December 26, 2023
    Assignee: DSM IP ASSETS B.V.
