Abstract
A process for continuously producing an oxymethylene polymer by continuously polymerizing a starting monomer containing at least 50 mole% of trioxane in bulk in the presence of a catalyst, which comprises feeding the starting monomer into a first-stage polymerization reactor having a self-cleaning action to perform a first-stage polymerization reaction until the conversion reaches 40 to 70%, withdrawing the reaction mixture as a powder from the outlet of the first-stage polymerization reactor, feeding the reaction mixture into a second-stage polymerization reactor having a stirring action to perform a second-stage polymerization reaction until the conversion reaches 95 to 100%, and then withdrawing the polymerization product as a powder from the outlet of the second-stage polymerization reactor.
