【 Product introduction 】 caprolactam (CPL) is an organic compound with a molecular formula of (CH2) 5C (o) NH. This colorless solid is a lactam (a cyclic amide) of hexanoic acid. Approximately 4.5 billion kg are produced annually. Caprolactam is a precursor of nylon 6, a widely used synthetic polymer.
【 Purity 】 99.9%
【Packaging】 ISO tanks and bulk vessels
【Field of application】almost all of the produced caprolactam is used in the production of nylon 6. The conversion requires ring opening polymerization: n (CH2) 5C (o) NH → [(CH2) 5C (o) NH] n
