n-acetyl caprolactam has a wide range of applications in various sectors. N-Acetylcaprolactam has been employed as an initiator to investigate the kinetics of anionic polymerization of -caprolactam. It is also widely used in the ring-opening polymerization of nylon 6. Caprolactam is an irritant and is mildly toxic in nature, hence must be handled with care. Caprolactam is also used in production of brush bristles, textile stiffeners, film coatings, synthetic leather, plastics and plasticizers. These reagents are suitable for synthesis applications in industries and also for research procedures.
