Abstract
The invention relates to a method for producing diamines and polyamines of the diphenylmethane series in which, by using a coalescence auxiliary in the phase separation of the process product obtained in the scrubbing of the neutralized crude product, the fraction of water and thus also of water-soluble impurities in the organic MDA-containing phase is reduced. According to the invention, the coalescence auxiliary used is a filter bed made of coalescence fiber material. The di- and polyamines of the diphenylmethane series obtained after distillative purification of this MDA-containing organic phase are exceptionally suitable for the preparation of the corresponding isocyanates.
