Comparative Example 4:

According to the general method for synthesizing nylon 6 described in the literature (Rwei, SP et al., Thermochimica Acta, 555, 37-45, 2013), 0.8 kg of caprolactam (CPL), 0.16 kg of water, 0.06 kg of acetic acid, the temperature was raised to 180 ° C and maintained for 2 hours. The temperature was then brought to 220 ° C and maintained for 2 hours. Next, the temperature was gradually raised from 220 ° C to 260 ° C over 2 hours and continued for 6 hours. After cooling, the material was cut and pelletized to obtain a nylon 6 polymer.

Remarks: CPL representative Group, TPA representative Group, HMDA representative Group, AA representative Group.

As can be seen from the results of Table 1, Comparative Examples 1-3 can be directly used as a reactive monomer by hexamethylenediamine (HMDA), terephthalic acid (TPA), and caprolactam (CPL). In the copolymerization reaction, even if Comparative Examples 1-3 were carried out in the same manner, the obtained copolymers (1) to (3) had a structure (repeating group ratio) and physical properties (for example, melting temperature and glass transition temperature). Differences. This is because the comparative examples 1-3 use the conventional polymerization method, and the polymerization reaction between the three monomers of HMDA, TPA and CPL has many different arrangement and combination, so the copolymer product is arranged by various groups with different molecular weights and different groups. A disordered copolymer composed of a combined structure. In addition, the compatibility between aromatic terephthalic acid and fat hexamethylene diamine and caprolactam is low, and the difference in reactivity between the two types of terminal functional groups is large, resulting in terephthalic acid in the main chain. The sequence distribution within is not uniformly dispersed. Therefore, the obtained copolymer has a poor regular structure, and the chemical structure and physical properties are not reproducible, so that it is difficult to obtain a stable chemical structure and physical properties of the copolymer. On the contrary, it can be seen from the first embodiment of the present invention and its verification experiment that there is almost no difference in the ratio of the amount of each monomer before the reaction to the content of each monomer derivative in the copolymer after the reaction, because of the structure of the formula (I). The monomer can be distributed in the sequence of the molecular structure uniformity of the backbone of the copolymer, which would otherwise cause a predominantly random distribution in the backbone molecule. And caprolactam (or / and diamine) is first reacted to obtain a comonomer of formula (I) containing two monomers of TPA and caprolactam (or diamine), such as formula (I) The comonomer is then subjected to alternate polymerization with the monomer of formula (II) to obtain a cross-linked copolymer. In addition, this method can also improve the mutual compatibility between the monomer having the formula (I) and the monomer having the formula (II), and the difference in reactivity between the terminal functional groups of both. Therefore, the method of the present invention can improve the symmetry of the copolymer, high sequence distribution, and physical properties such as high melting point with respect to known techniques of a random copolymer. This can improve The uniformity sequence distribution within the backbone of the copolymer results in a product that is close to an alternative copolymer. If applied to plastic or spinning processes, it can reduce product variability, improve stability and reduce yarn breakage.

In addition, the copolymer obtained in Example 1 and its verification experiment has a significant melting temperature and glass transition temperature compared to the currently commercially available nylon 6, or the copolymers described in Comparative Examples 1-4. improve. Moreover, the glass transition temperature of the copolymer obtained in Example 1 and its verification experiment was increased by about 20-30 ° C compared to the commercially available nylon 6 and nylon 66, and the melting point temperature was even close to that of nylon 66. Further, the copolymer obtained in Example 1 and its verification experiment had a hot water extractable amount (wt%) lower than that of the nylon 6 or the copolymer described in Comparative Examples 1-3.

Therefore, it is understood from Table 1 that the copolymer of the present invention is substantially superior in properties to the commercial nylon 6. Compared with nylon 66, the copolymer of the present invention The group content can be greater than 49 mole%, and the Tm and Tg are also close to or better than nylon 66, thus having the opportunity to replace the nylon 66 application market. Further, in the first embodiment of the present invention and the verification experiment 1-2, the copolymer of the present invention has extremely high reproducibility (i.e., high stability in chemical structure and physical properties), and is very suitable for commercialization (stability is commercialized). The most important conditional parameter is that the copolymer produced in each batch has the same properties).

From the experimental results of the above-mentioned Examples 1-7 and Comparative Examples 1-4 of the present invention, it has been found that since the present invention, terephthalic acid (TPA) is substituted with a monomer having a structure of the formula (I), and a diamine or an anthracene. The amine monomer reacts to form a copolymer, which allows The groups are uniformly distributed in the main chain of the copolymer to give an alternating copolymer (as described in Example 1). a copolymer of repeating units which form a main chain in the order of [-CPL-TPA-CPL-HMDA-] (CPL stands for Group, TPA representative Group, and HMDA representative Group), has a high melting point, softening point, heat resistance, mechanical strength, and low hot water extractable amount.
