Abstract
The present invention relates to a process for preparing a granular nylon salt material, wherein an aqueous mixture, comprising at least 65 wt. % of salt components, and at most 35 wt. % of an aqueous medium, the weight percentages (wt. %) being relative to the total weight of the aqueous mixture, is flashed from a pressure vessel via a flash valve into a flash chamber, thereby evaporating the aqueous medium in an amount sufficient to result in a residual moisture content of at most 7.5 wt. %, and forming a granular nylon salt material. The invention also relates to a process for preparing a nylon polymer, comprising direct solid state polymerization of the granular salt material prepared by flash granulation.
