Research Summary
Caprolactam (CAS 105-60-2) is a cyclic amide compound with the chemical formula C6H11NO. It is an important intermediate chemical used in the production of nylon-6, a versatile synthetic polymer. Caprolactam is a white crystalline solid that is soluble in water and has a characteristic odor. It is primarily produced through the Beckmann rearrangement of cyclohexanone oxime, a process involving the conversion of cyclohexanone into caprolactam. Caprolactam is a key raw material in the manufacturing of nylon fibers, films, and engineering plastics. It is widely used in industries such as textiles, automotive, electrical, and consumer goods. Caprolactam's properties, including its high strength, abrasion resistance, and heat stability, make it suitable for applications ranging from carpets, clothing, and packaging materials to automotive components and electronic devices.
