ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a process for producing glycolide by depolymerization by heating of a glycolic acid oligomer in the presence or absence of a solvent, which process ensures stable depolymerization. The depolymerization reaction is carried out while the content of alkaline metal ions in a glycolic acid oligomer-containing depolymerization reaction system is controlled to 0.001% by mass or lower; a sulfate or an organic acid salt, each in the form of di- or poly-valent cations, or a mixture thereof is allowed to be present as a stabilizer in the depolymerization reaction system; or the content of alkaline metal ions in the depolymerization reaction system is controlled to 0.001% by mass or lower, and a sulfate or an organic acid salt, each in the form of di- or poly-valent cations, or a mixture thereof is allowed to be present as a stabilizer in the depolymerization reaction system.
