Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for the production of polyamide 6 with low extract content and a device for it. Here, a melt of non-extracted polyamide 6 is cleaned from monomer and oligomers in a degasification device in vacuum, wherein the vapor being withdrawn from the degasification device by the vacuum generation device is cleaned from monomer, oligomers and optionally water at first in a direct condenser which is operated with liquid ε-caprolactam and subsequently in a pre-separator which is cooled with a coolant, before it reaches the vacuum generation device. A particularly preferable variant of the method envisages the usage of the melt of polyamide 6 with low extract content so prepared in a direct process of spinning into textile fibers and/or filaments.
