Problems solved by technology

[0006] The reaction mechanism commonly used in the dibasic acid method includes the esterification reaction mechanism of terminal hydroxyl and carboxyl terminal reactions, which requires high temperature and high vacuum conditions (20-50Pa), which will promote the decomposition of polyamide segments during the reaction process. The polyamide monomer causes the molecular chain to break, the average molecular weight decreases, the by-products increase, and the product quality decreases. At the same time, the reaction speed is relatively slow, which affects production efficiency.
These problems restrict the large-scale production of PA6 thermoplastic elastomers

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a PA6 thermoplastic elastomer and a preparation method thereof, in particular to a PA6 thermoplastic elastomer obtained by copolymerization of polyetheramine, dibasic acid and caprolactam under the action of a ring-opening agent and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Polyamide thermoplastic elastomer is a kind of thermoplastic elastomer with excellent performance and wide application. Its molecular chain is composed of hard segment composed of polyamide and soft segment composed of polyether. The molecular weight of each segment generally does not exceed 4000, and each molecular chain is generally larger than a triblock. Among polyamide thermoplastic elastomers, PA6-type thermoplastic elastomers have better comprehensive properties than other thermoplastic elastomers. They can be used as super-tough heat-resistant engineering plastics and can also be made into high-strength elastic fibers. Therefore, th...
