Patent ID: 11718579

Abstract:
A method for producing a highly polymerizable N-vinyl carboxylic acid amide monomer includes (A) melting a crude N-vinyl carboxylic acid amide monomer comprising 50 to 88 mass % of an N-vinyl carboxylic acid amide monomer by heating, followed by cooling for precipitation, and subjecting precipitated N-vinyl carboxylic acid amide monomer crystals to solid-liquid separation (step (A)), and (B) further dissolving the N-vinyl carboxylic acid amide monomer crystals separated in step (A) in a mixed solvent of acetonitrile and an aliphatic hydrocarbon having 6 to 7 carbon atoms, then performing crystallization, performing solid-liquid separation, and recovering an N-vinyl carboxylic acid amide monomer purified product (step (B)), wherein a mass ratio of acetonitrile/N-vinyl carboxylic acid amide monomer crystal in step (B) is 0.01 to 0.5, and a mass ratio of aliphatic hydrocarbon having 6 to 7 carbon atoms/N-vinyl carboxylic acid amide monomer crystal in step (B) is 0.5 to 3.0.
