Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of Nylon 6,6 production from adipic acid and hexamethylenediamine (HMDA). The process examined is a typical continuous polymerization process. In that process, adipic acid and HMDA are first reacted to form a nylon salt solution that is further fed to a polymerization section. Polymerization is carried out in multiple stages and the polymer melt formed is transferred to the finishing section. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): (1) WO Patent 2014179065, issued to Invista in 2014; (2) 'Polymers, Polyamides, Aliphatic', by Terry S. Chern, - McKetta, J.
