Problems solved by technology

[0007] However, with the method of ring-opening polymerization of a ring-opening polymerizable monomer using a compressive fluid such as supercritical carbon dioxide, it has not been possible to obtain a strong polymer product having a high molecular weight, even by continuing the reaction for a long time. The same is true for the time, as long as an organic catalyst that does not contain metal atoms is used as the catalyst
There has also been a problem that the durability and softening temperature of polymer products can be deteriorated due to the influence of low molecular weight components
[0008] Moreover, this method has also been problematic because polymers containing enantiomers, such as polylactic acid, will tend to racemize as a result of reaction over a long period of time.

[0203] [Second Embodiment] (Application Example)

[0204] Next, a second embodiment will be described as an application example of the first embodiment. In the production method of the first embodiment, there is almost no residual ring-opening polymerizable monomer and the reaction proceeds quantitatively. Based on this, the first method of the second embodiment is to add one or more kinds of ring-opening polymerizable monomers by using the polymer product produced by the production method of the first embodiment, and by appropriately setting opportunity to synthesize polymer products. The second method of the second embodiment will be by using 2 or more kinds of polymers comprising the polymer product manufactured by the manufacturing method of the first embodiment and by continuously mixing the 2 polymers in the presence of a compressive fluid. or more types of polymer products to form a complex body (complexbody). In this embodiment, "complex" means a copolymer including...

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a polymer product and a method of manufacturing the polymer product, as well as a polymer product manufacturing facility. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, various polymers have been produced by ring-opening polymerization of ring-opening polymerizable monomers. For example, polylactic acid is produced by ring-opening polymerizing lactide, which is an example of a monomer capable of ring-opening polymerisation. The produced polylactic acid is used, for example, in fabrics for sutures, sheets for biocompatible materials, particles for cosmetics, and films for plastic bags. [0003] As a method for producing a polymer by ring-opening polymerizing such a ring-opening polymerizable monomer, there is a method of reacting the ring-opening polymerizable monomer in its molten state. For example, as a method for producing polylactic acid by ring-opening polymerization of lactide, it is proposed to react lactide in ...
