Abstract

In the production method of polyamide of the present invention, the mole balance at a set point during melt polymerization is estimated from a pre-established equation for calculating the mole balance during melt polymerization from a melt viscosity. On the basis of the estimated mole balance, the subsequent conditions of melt polymerization of a batch and the polymerization conditions of the next and subsequent batches are determined. In addition, the mole balance, molecular weight and relative viscosity of melt-polymerized polyamide are estimated from pre-established equations each for respectively calculating the mole balance, molecular weight and relative viscosity at the end point of melt polymerization from the melt viscosity. The conditions for solid phase-polymerizing the melt-polymerized polyamide are determined on the basis of estimated values.
