CAS 1888-91-1

Acetylcaprolactam

Description:

Acetylcaprolactam, with the CAS number 1888-91-1, is a cyclic amide derived from caprolactam, which is primarily known for its role in the production of nylon-6. This compound features a five-membered lactam ring and an acetyl group, contributing to its unique chemical properties. Acetylcaprolactam is typically a white to off-white solid, exhibiting moderate solubility in polar solvents such as water and alcohols, while being less soluble in non-polar solvents. It has a relatively low melting point, indicating that it can exist in a liquid state under certain conditions. The presence of the acetyl group enhances its reactivity, making it useful in various chemical synthesis processes, including polymerization reactions. Additionally, acetylcaprolactam can serve as an intermediate in the production of other chemical compounds. Its applications extend to the textile and plastics industries, where it may be utilized in the formulation of specialty polymers and additives. As with many chemical substances, handling should be done with care, following appropriate safety guidelines to mitigate any potential hazards.
