Furthermore, the present invention is directed to the use of a mixture obtainable or obtained by a process according to the present invention, for preparing a polyamide.Polyamide based polymers and mixtures of polyamides are widely used, for example in the production of textiles and composites. The resulting end-of-life materials and waste are difficult to recycle without separating the components first. In recycling processes, often mixtures are obtained comprising soluble degradation products of the polymers as well as insoluble parts. Different approaches have been described in the literature.WC2024008847 describes the separation of a plastic solvolysis mixture by membrane filtration to separate off catalyst in a solvent mixture consisting of alcohols, glycols, amines and mixtures thereof.US5430068 describes a process for the solvent-based separation of polyamides from filler materials involving a polyol or aliphatic carboxylic acid and successive precipitation of the polyamide from said solvent. However, this invention aims at sustaining the molecular weight of the polymer in a recycling process without further remonomerization steps, which limits the work-up and purification options.Furthermore, modern, high resilience composite plastics are often based on reinforced, in particular glass fiber-rein- forced thermoplastics, in particular polyamides. In many processes disclosed in the state of the art, the fillers are not recovered or damaged and cannot be reused.It was an object of the present invention to provide a process, which allows recycling polyamide engineering plastics comprising filler and recovering the different compounds for recycling purposes.240855W001- 2 -According to the present invention, this object is achieved by a process for treating a polymeric material (PM) comprising a polyamide based polymer, preferably a polyamide 66 based polymer, and at least one insoluble filler (F1), the process comprising(a) providing a polymeric material (PM) comprising a polyamide based polymer, preferably a polyamide 66 based polymer, and at least one filler (F1) and a solvent composition (SC) comprising water;(b) preparing a mixture (M-0) from the polymeric material (PM) and the solvent composition (SC);(c) subjecting mixture (M-0) to conditions for at least partially depolymerizing the polyamide based polymer (D1) comprising a depolymerization temperature T(D1) and a depolymerization time t(D 1) obtaining a mixture (M-1) comprising the solvent composition (SC), soluble oligomers and optionally monomers of the polyamide based polymer, and the filler (F1);(d) separating the filler (F1) from mixture (M-1) at a temperature T2 obtaining mixture (M-2) comprising the filler (F1), and mixture (M-3) comprising the solvent composition (SC) and soluble oligomers and optionally monomers of the polyamide based polymer;(e) cooling mixture (M-3) to a temperature T3 using a cooling rate of 1 to 120°C per hour to obtain a mixture (M-3*) comprising the solvent composition (SC), and insoluble oligomers and optionally soluble monomers of the polyamide based polymer,(f) separating soluble monomers of the polyamide based polymer and short chained oligomers and optionally further water soluble components from mixture (M-3*) obtaining mixture (M-4) comprising oligomers of the polyamide based polymer.According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, this object is achieved by a process for treating a polymeric material (PM) comprising a polyamide 66 based polymer and at least one insoluble filler (F1), the process comprising(a) providing a polymeric material (PM) comprising a polyamide 66 based polymer and at least one filler (F1) and a solvent composition (SC) comprising water;(b) preparing a mixture (M-0) from the polymeric material (PM) and the solvent composition (SC);240855W001- 3 -(c) subjecting mixture (M-0) to conditions for at least partially depolymerizing the polyamide 66 based polymer (D1) comprising a depolymerization temperature T(D1 ) and a depolymerization time t(D1 ) obtaining a mixture (M-1 ) comprising the solvent composition (SC), soluble oligomers and optionally monomers of the polyamide 66 based polymer, and the filler (F1);(d) separating the filler (F1) from mixture (M-1) at a temperature T2 obtaining mixture (M-2) comprising the filler (F1), and mixture (M-3) comprising the solvent composition (SC) and soluble oligomers and optionally monomers of the polyamide 66 based polymer;(e) cooling mixture (M-3) to a temperature T3 using a cooling rate of 1 to 120°C per hour to obtain a mixture (M-3*) comprising the solvent composition (SC), and insoluble oligomers and optionally soluble monomers of the polyamide 66 based polymer,(f) separating soluble monomers of the polyamide 66 based polymer and short chained oligomers and optionally further water soluble components from mixture (M-3*) obtaining mixture (M-4) comprising oligomers of the polyamide 66 based polymer.It was surprisingly found that the process according to the presented invention allows to separate the filler from polyamides, in particular PA66 engineering plastics, from end-of-life waste-streams.

A pressure of 37 bar was achieved. The reaction mixture was kept at this temperature for 4 hours and stirred. The solution of PA 66 oligomers was then separated from the glass fibers by a frit by forcing the solution through the frit at 250°C into a second autoclave heated to 250°C. The glass fibers were obtained as a residue after further drying in a vacuum as a fluffy residue (18 g). The filtrate was slowly cooled to room temperature within about 4 hours. The yield was 150 g of a white solid aqueous suspension. The white residue was filtered off with a pressure filter nozzle at room temperature. Therefore, 3 bar of nitrogen was applied during filtration. The yield was 67 g of a white solid (55% solids content), as240855W001- 30 - well as 68 g of a mother liquor that was evaporated on the rotary evaporator. 5 g of a white solid were obtained from the mother liquor.The white solid obtained from the mother liquor can be dried and then used as feedstock in a gasification. The glass fibers can either be used directly or after workup, e.g. heating and sizing, in a PA66 polymer compound.Literature citedW02024008847 US5430068US4313870US9534083Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, "Polyamides” Herzog, B., Kohan, M.I., Mestemacher, S.A., Pagilagan, R.U., Redmond, K. and Sarbandi, R.
