Continuous polymerization process for the production of polymers having a narrow molecular weight distribution and taylor - couette - reactor for its realization

摘要

The object of the invention is a taylor - couette - reactor for carrying out of bulk polymerizations, wherein the reactor is a outer the reactor wall and located therein, a concentrically arranged rotor, a bottom of the reactor and a reactor lid, which together define the annular gap-shaped reactor volume, at least one device for the metered addition of the starting materials and a device for the product outlet, and wherein the device for the metered addition of the starting materials above the reactor foot in the lower two thirds of the reactor jacket is arranged and in the polymerization a change in the kinematic viscosity ν of the reaction medium inlet. The present invention also relates to a process for the continuous polymerization of monomers in mass in this taylor - couette - reactor, wherein in the polymerization a change in the kinematic viscosity ν of the reaction medium inlet.
