ABSTRACT:
A new type of poly-2-pyrrolidone suitable for melt spinning and a process for its preparation. The new poly-2-pyrrolidone is characterized in that the polymer in the virgin state has a relative viscosity (1 gram of polymer in 100 ml of 96% sulphuric acid at 20.degree. C.) of between 2.2 and 7.0, shows a weight loss of less than 5% by weight when heated from 20.degree. C. to the onset temperature of thermal degradation at a rate 4.degree. C. per minute, the ratio between the relative viscosities after and before melt spinning ranges between 0.50:1 and 0.95:1, and the relative viscosity after melt spinning is at least 1.90. The new poly-2-pyrrolidone is prepared by polymerization of 2-pyrrolidone in the presence of an anionic catalyst and an accelerator wherein N-(2-caprolactim)-caprolactam is used as the accelerator in an amount of between 0.05 and 5.0 mole percent relative to the monomer, and the polymerization is carried out at a temperature of between about 25.degree. and 70.degree. C. until a relative viscosity of at least 2.2 is obtained.
