caprolactam

Almost all caprolactam produced goes into the production of Nylon-6.

The wastewater treatment plant was built right by the production line of caprolactam.

In earlier times, caprolactam was prepared by treatment of caprolactone with ammonia.

The company is the sole caprolactam producer in Thailand.

In other words, nylon 6 is made from a single six-carbon substance called caprolactam.

Given the commercial significance of Nylon-6, many methods have been developed for the production of caprolactam.

It should not be confused with caprolactam, which is an isomer of the compound.

Exports of caprolactam, the raw material for sythetic fibres, were poor.

The first challenge Hanford faced was the need to polymerize caprolactam.

KA oil is then used as a raw material for adipic acid and caprolactam.

There he led the technical preparation of plastics, namely polyamide and caprolactam.

Nylon 6 is synthesized by ring opening polymerization of caprolactam.

In water, caprolactam hydrolyzes to aminocaproic acid, which is used medicinally.

It is a colourless solid that is used industrially in the production of caprolactam.

Beckmann rearrangement is used for the industrial synthesis of caprolactam (see applications below).

Annual production of caprolactam exceeds 2 billion kilograms.

Narrow gauge railway of Caprolactam factory is located in the Dzerzhinsk.

A well known azepane derivative is caprolactam.

A practical synthesis starts from caprolactam.

It also produces caprolactam, hydrogen peroxide, AdBlue and technical gases.

The immediate product of the acid-induced rearrangement is the bisulfate salt of caprolactam.

This enzyme participates in caprolactam degradation.

In their largest application, an oxime is an intermediate in the industrial production of caprolactam, a precursor to Nylon 6.

Most of the caprolactam is synthesised from cyclohexanone (1), which is first converted to its oxime (2).
