Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a method for producing a polyoxymethylene polyoxyalkylene block copolymer, said method including the process of reacting a polymer formaldehyde compound with alkylene oxide in the presence of a double metal cyanide (DMC) catalyst and an H-functional starter substance, wherein the theoretical molar mass of the polymer formaldehyde compound is lower than the theoretical molar mass of the H-functional starter substance, and the polymer formaldehyde compound has at least one terminal hydroxyl group, the theoretical molar mass of the H-functional starter substance being at least 500 g/mol. In the method according to the invention, a mixture i) is provided comprising the DMC catalyst and the H-functional starter substance in step (i); the polymer formaldehyde compound is then added to the mixture (i) in step (ii), thereby forming a mixture (ii); and the alkylene oxide is added in step (iii), step (ii) being carried out at the same time as or prior to step (iii).
