Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention provides a method of producing sulfur-modified polyacrylonitrile, including: a step (1) of heating polyacrylonitrile and elemental sulfur in a rotating-type heating container including a discharge pipe and a sulfur vapor recovery unit while rotating the rotating-type heating container; a step (2) of liquefying a sulfur vapor by the sulfur vapor recovery unit while discharging hydrogen sulfide generated in the heating step; and a step (3) of returning the liquefied sulfur to a mixture of the sulfur and the polyacrylonitrile of the step (1).

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A method of producing sulfur-modified polyacrylonitrile, comprising: a step (1) of heating polyacrylonitrile and elemental sulfur in a rotating-type heating container comprising a discharge pipe and a sulfur vapor recovery unit while rotating the rotating-type heating container; a step (2) of liquefying a sulfur vapor by the sulfur vapor recovery unit while discharging hydrogen sulfide generated in the heating step; and a step (3) of returning the liquefied sulfur to a mixture of the sulfur and the polyacrylonitrile of the step (1). 2 . The method of producing sulfur-modified polyacrylonitrile according to claim 1 , wherein a ratio between the polyacrylonitrile and the elemental sulfur is as follows: 100 parts by mass to 1,500 parts by mass of the elemental sulfur with respect to 100 parts by mass of the polyacrylonitrile. 3 . The method of producing sulfur-modified polyacrylonitrile according to claim 1 , wherein the polyacrylonitrile and the elemental sulfur each have a particle diameter of from 1 μm to 1,000 μm in terms of an average particle diameter. 4 . The method of producing sulfur-modified polyacrylonitrile according to claim 1 , wherein the polyacrylonitrile and the elemental sulfur each have a particle diameter of from 1 μm to 1,000 μm in terms of an average particle diameter.
