Description:
Caprolactam, CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2NHCO, is a solid material composed of white flakes. Caprolactam is soluble in water and has a specific gravity (in a 70% solution)of 1.05, which is heavier than water. It may also be encountered as a molten material. Caprolactam is toxic by inhalation, with a TLV of (vapor) 5 ppm in air and (dust) 1 mg/m3 of air. The primary uses are in the manufacture of synthetic fibers, plastics, film, coatings, and polyurethanes.

Usage
(1) The majority of caprolactam is used in the production of polycaprolactam, of which about 90% is used for the production of synthetic fibers, that is, Kaplon, 10% used as plastic for the manufacture of gears, bearings, pipe, medical equipment and electrical, insulating materials. Also used in coatings, plastics and for the synthesis of lysine in a small amount and so on.
(2) Caprolactam is mainly used for the preparation of caprolactam resin, fiber and leather, also used as pharmaceutical raw materials.
(3) It can be used as polymer solvent, for the manufacture of polyamide-based synthetic fiber and the fixing phase of gas chromatography.
