Process for preparing a stabilized oxymethylene copolymer

Oxymethylene copolymer having heat and hydrolysis resistant terminal groups is prepared by heating the polymers present in a liquid phase, whereby a thermal degradation of the unstable terminal groups takes place. The degradation is advantageously effected in the presence of a calcium or magnesium s...

Zusammenfassung:Oxymethylene copolymer having heat and hydrolysis resistant terminal groups is prepared by heating the polymers present in a liquid phase, whereby a thermal degradation of the unstable terminal groups takes place. The degradation is advantageously effected in the presence of a calcium or magnesium salt of an aliphatic carboxylic acid of low molecular weight. The oxymethylene copolymers are suitable as engineering plastic for preparing semi-finished products and finished products.
