Lactam polymerization is a type of ring-opening polymerization that involves the reaction of lactam monomers. Lactams are cyclic amides. During polymerization, the ring is opened, and the monomers link together to form a polymer chain. Lactam polymerization is commonly used to synthesize polyamides, such as nylon.

内酰胺聚合是一种开环聚合，涉及内酰胺单体的反应。内酰胺是环酰胺。在聚合过程中，环被打开，单体连接在一起形成聚合物链。内酰胺聚合通常用于合成聚酰胺，例如尼龙。
