Abstract

See full text

A process for producing a polyacetal copolymer, the process making catalyst deactivation easy and efficient. Trioxane as a major monomer is copolymerized with one or more comonomers that are a cyclic ether and/or cyclic formal having at least one carbon-carbon bond, using a nonvolatile protonic acid as a polymerization catalyst at 100° C. or lower until the conversion reaches 50% and thereafter at a polymerization environment temperature of 115° C. to 140° C. This process includes: a crushing step in which a dry-process crusher is used to obtain a crude polyacetal copolymer crushed to such a degree that when the crude copolymer is screened with a sieve having an opening size of 11.2 mm, 90 parts by weight or more thereof passes therethrough; and a deactivation step in which a basic compound (e) is added to the crude copolymer and the mixture is melt-kneaded to thereby deactivate the polymerization catalyst.
