Embodiment 1

[0163] Embodiment 1: produce polyamide PA1

[0164] 35.7 kg of the diamine MACM (3,3-diamino-4,4-dimethyldicyclohexylmethane) and 34.2 kg of dodecanedioic acid were added to a 130 L autoclave with a stirrer, while 30 kg of water were added. After heating to 280°C at a pressure of maximum 30 bar, preferably 20 bar, the batch is released to atmospheric pressure and degassed to the required torque. The polymer melt is discharged in strands, cooled in a water bath and pelletized. After drying, a relative viscosity of 1.73 in 0.5% m-cresol and a Tg of 153°C were obtained. Polyamides are amorphous and completely transparent.

[0165] Lenses in the form of discs of 70 x 2 mm were produced in polishing tools on an Arburg injection molding machine. The roll temperature was 260-340°C while the tool temperature was 45-140°C. These sheet lenses had a haze of 0.30 and a light transmission of 94% and were tinted in a functional bath.

Embodiment 2

[0166] Embodiment 2: produce polyamide PA2

[0167] 23.0kg diamine PACM (3,3-diamino-4,4-dimethyldicyclohexylmethane), 11.2kg diamine MACM (3,3-diamino-4,4-dimethyldicyclohexyl methane) and 35.7kg of dodecanedioic acid were added into a 130L autoclave with a stirrer, and 30.0kg of water was added simultaneously. After heating to 280°C at a pressure of maximum 30 bar, preferably 20 bar, the batch is released to atmospheric pressure and degassed to the required torque. The polymer melt is discharged in strands, cooled in a water bath and pelletized. After drying, a relative viscosity of 1.85 in 0.5% m-cresol, a Tg of 144°C and a melting point of 237°C were obtained. The polyamide is microcrystalline and completely transparent.

Embodiment 3

[0168] Embodiment 3: produce polyamide PA3

[0169] Add 30.0kg of diamine MACM (3,3-diamino-4,4-dimethyldicyclohexylmethane), 20.7kg of isophthalic acid and 26.0kg of glyceryl laurate lactam into a 130L autoclave with agitator In, add the water of 23.0kg simultaneously. After heating to 280°C and at a pressure of maximum 30 bar, preferably 20 bar, the batch is released to atmospheric pressure and degassed to the required torque. The polymer melt is discharged in strands, cooled in a water bath and pelletized. After drying, a relative viscosity of 1.55 in 0.5% m-cresol and a Tg of 160°C were obtained. The polyamide is amorphous and completely transparent.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to novel compositions of dyeing or functional baths and methods for coloring, dyeing or doping molded elements with functional additives in these aqueous impregnating or functional baths. The molded element essentially contains transparent or translucent (co)polyamide. The temperature of the immersion or functional bath is below the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the (co)polyamide. If the molded element is to be colored or dyed according to an embodiment of the present invention, the dyeing can be performed as a uniform dye or a gradient dye. [0002] The method according to the invention is particularly suitable for the production of high-value objects such as ophthalmic lenses, sun lenses for spectacles, magnifying glasses, various viewing glasses, polarizing films and display films, especially if varying color intensities (gradients) are to be produced. [0003] The generation of color gradients requires dyeing in...
