Description

Verfahren zum Regenerieren von faser- und fadenförmiger Abfälle aus schmelzbaren synthetischen Polymeren Die bei der Herstellung von Fasern und Fäden aus schmelzbaren synthetischen Polymeren anfallenden Spinnabfälle müssen zur Wiederverwendung für Spinnmaterial oder zur Verarbeitung auf Spritz- oder Preßgußmassen eingeschmolzen und beispielsweise in Granulat übergeführt werden.Process for the regeneration of fibrous and filamentary waste fusible synthetic polymers used in the manufacture of fibers and threads Spinning waste produced from fusible synthetic polymers must be reused for spinning material or for processing on injection or molding compounds and converted into granules, for example.

Es ist bekannt, den Schmelzvorgang durch Kontaktwärme, also durch Berühren des Abfallmaterials mit erhitzten festen Stoffen oder mit den Gefäßwänden durchzuführen. Die hierbei zwangläufig entstehenden örtlichen Überhitzungen führen zu Zersetzungen; das Verfahren ist zudem langwierig. It is known, the melting process by contact heat, so by Touching the waste material with heated solid materials or with the walls of the vessel perform. The local overheating that inevitably occurs here to decomposition; the process is also lengthy.

Das weiter bekannte Schmelzen mit Hilfe heißer Flüssigkeiten vorzunehmen, hat große Nachteile, da die Auswahl der zur Verfügung stehenden Flüssigkeiten sehr gering ist; sie sollen hinreichend temperaturbeständig und hochsiedend sein, zudem soll ihr spezifisches Gewicht unter dem des Polyamides liegen, damit die Flüssigkeit gleichzeitig eine Schutzschicht gegenüber dem Luftsauerstoff bildet. Die unerwünschte und schwer zu beseitigende Verunreinigung des Schmelzgutes durch die betreffende Flüssigkeit ist eine weitere Beeinträchtigung dieses bekannten Verfahrens. To carry out the well-known melting with the help of hot liquids, has major disadvantages, as the choice of available liquids is great is low; they should also be sufficiently temperature-resistant and high-boiling its specific weight should be below that of the polyamide, so that the liquid at the same time forms a protective layer against atmospheric oxygen. The unwanted one and difficult-to-remove contamination of the melting material by the relevant Liquid is another drawback of this known process.

Bei ebenfalls üblicher Verwendung von Mikrowellen gelingt es zwar, den Schmelzvorgang verhältnismäßig schnell durchzuführen, es läßt sich jedoch das Entstehen von Blasen im Schmelzgut nicht vermeiden, zudem vermindert sich der Polymerisationsgrad bei diesem Schmelzvorgang, der überdies noch die Verwendung besonders gereinigten Stickstoffs als Schutzgas erfordert. With the use of microwaves, which is also common, it is possible to to carry out the melting process relatively quickly, but it can be Do not avoid the formation of bubbles in the melt, and the degree of polymerisation is also reduced in this melting process, which also cleaned the use particularly well Requires nitrogen as a protective gas.

Erfindungsgegenstand ist ein Verfahren zum Regenerieren von faser- und fadenförmigen Abfällen aus schmelzbaren, fadenbildenden synthetischen Polyamiden, Polyestern, Polyurethanen und Polyolefinen, durch Schmelzen mittels überhitzten Wasserdampfes. The subject of the invention is a method for regenerating fiber and thread-like waste made from meltable, thread-forming synthetic polyamides, Polyesters, polyurethanes and polyolefins, by melting by means of superheated Water vapor.

Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß man die Abfälle in aufrecht stehende Schächte von oben einführt, während der überhitzte Wasserdampf mit 3300 C von unten im Gegenstrom geleitet wird, und daß man die entstehende Schmelze kontinuierlich abfließen läßt. Dies war erstaunlich, weil ja bei Verwendung überhitzten Wasserdampfes häufig eine Verkohlung organischer Substanzen stattfindet, die Materialien also offensichtlich einer thermischen Zersetzung unterliegen. Bezüglich der Polyaminocapronsäure sagen beispielsweise H o pf f, M ü 11 e r, W e n g e r in »Die Polyamide« (Berlin-Göttingen-Heidelberg, 1954, S. 28): »Wesentlich rascher wirkt überhitzter Wasserdampf auf Polyaminocapronsäure abbauend.« Beispiel Zerschnittene oder zerrissene faserförmige Abfälle aus polykondensiertem Hexamethylenadipamid werden in Schächte von oben her eingeführt, während überhitzter Wasserdampf von einer Temperatur von 330"C entgegengeführt wird. Die hierbei entstehende Schmelze tropft nach unten ab und kann unmittelbar anschließend zu endlosen Bändern verformt werden.The inventive method is characterized in that one introduces the waste into upright shafts from above while the overheated Steam at 3300 C is passed from below in countercurrent, and that the resulting Lets the melt flow off continuously. This was amazing because yes when in use overheated steam often causes carbonization of organic substances, the materials are obviously subject to thermal decomposition. In terms of of polyaminocaproic acid say, for example, H o pf f, M ü 11 e r, W e n g e r in “Die Polyamide” (Berlin-Göttingen-Heidelberg, 1954, p. 28): “Much faster superheated steam has a degrading effect on polyaminocaproic acid. " Example cut up or torn fibrous scraps of polycondensed hexamethylene adipamide are introduced into shafts from above, while superheated steam from a temperature of 330 "C is countered. The resulting melt drips downwards and can then immediately be deformed into endless strips will.

Das so gewonnene Schmelzgut zeigt äußerlich keine Verfärbungen oder Zersetzungen. Bei Anwendung eines Polyhexamethylen-adipamids mit einem ursprünglichen Polymerisationsgrad von 72 zeigte das angefallene Schmelzgut einen Polymerisationsgrad von 82. Die Messung der relativen Viskosität ergab bei den Abfällen einen Wert von 37, während die relative Viskosität des Schmelzgutes 48 betrug. The melt material obtained in this way shows no external discoloration or Decompositions. When using a polyhexamethylene adipamide with an original Degree of polymerization of 72 showed the resulting melt material a degree of polymerization of 82. The measurement of the relative viscosity gave a value of 37, while the relative viscosity of the melt material was 48.

Die Messung der relativen Viskosität erfolgte in der Form, daß jeweils eine 8,40i0ige Lösung des Polyhexamethylenadipamids in Ameisensäure von 90 Gewichtsprozent hergestellt wurde; der Vergleich der Viskosität dieser Lösungen erfolgte mit der Viskosität der 9001,eigen Ameisensäure, so daß die relative Viskosität aus dem Quotienten dieser beiden Viskositäten besteht. The relative viscosity was measured in the form that each an 8.40% solution of the polyhexamethylene adipamide in formic acid of 90 percent by weight was produced; the comparison of the viscosity of these solutions was made with that Viscosity of 9001, inherent to formic acid, so that the relative viscosity from the quotient of these two viscosities.

Unter den gleichen Bedingungen behandelte Faserabfälle aus Polycaprolaktam, Polyurethan, Polyterephthalsäureglykolester, Polyäthylen, Polypropylen und Polybutylen verhalten sich wie das Polyhexamethylenadipamid. Polycaprolactam fiber waste treated under the same conditions, Polyurethane, polyterephthalic acid glycol ester, polyethylene, polypropylene and polybutylene behave like the polyhexamethylene adipamide.
