  • Patent number: 11753391
    Abstract: The object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing glycolide, with which a production rate of glycolide can be further enhanced. The method for producing glycolide that achieves the object described above includes: an oligomer preparation step of heating an aqueous glycolic acid solution and subjecting glycolic acid contained in the aqueous glycolic acid solution to dehydrating polycondensation, to obtain a glycolic acid oligomer; and a depolymerization step of depolymerizing the glycolic acid oligomer in the presence of ferrous ions to obtain glycolide.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 14, 2019
    Date of Patent: September 12, 2023
    Assignee: Kureha Corporation
    Inventors: Takenori Tose, Yoshinori Suzuki, Yuta Yamadoi
  • Patent number: 11001565
    Abstract: The object of the present invention is to provide a glycolide production method capable of further increasing the production rate of glycolide. The glycolide production method according to the present invention includes adding metal iron to an aqueous glycolic acid solution, subjecting glycolic acid contained in the aqueous glycolic acid solution to which the metal iron is added, to dehydrating polycondensation to obtain a glycolic acid oligomer, and heating and depolymerizing the glycolic acid oligomer to obtain glycolide.
