In this video, I will be doing the classic Nylon 6,6 demonstration. I first convert adipic acid (which was made in a previous video) to adipoyl chloride. It is then reacted with hexamethylenediamine to form Nylon 6,6.

In the future, I will be making Nylon 6,6 the industrial way, by first going through the nylon salt.

Note: I write cyclohexanol in the video, but it is actually cyclohexane that I used. I also wrote in the comments it was cyclohexanol...so double mistake. oops
