Caprolactam

CPL(Caprolactam) is a very important raw material for the production of nylon 6 fibers and resins through the method of ring-opening polymerization. Nylone 6 is widely used to manufacture high-strength fibers, resins, films as well as plastics.  The demand for CPL in end-use industries such as textile yarn, industrial yarn, engineering plastics, carpet fibers , and staple fibers has been increasing, which has driven the demand for CPL. In recent years, the production of engine covers and gears in the car industry also has a growing demand for CPL.

Chematur’s CPL technology uses cyclohexanone as the basic raw material. The process of heterogeneous ammoximation solvent rearrangement to produce CPL is the most advanced technology in the world. The main process is: cyclohexanone oxime cyclohexane solution is produced by heterogeneous ammoximation, CPL is produced by solvent rearrangement, neutralization and crystallization, and ammonium sulfate is by-product. It is characterized by short production process, simple control, general requirement for equipment and pipeline material, and less discharge of three wastes.
