Transparent thermoplastic polyamide container

摘要

Disclosed is a transparent thermoplastic container including a thermoplastic composition including: A) a polyamide resin including
a) 10 to 40 mol % of a first repeat unit of formula (I),; andb) 60 to 90 mol % of a second repeat unit selected from the group consisting of formula (II)
—C(O)(CH2)nC(O)NH(CH2)6NH—  (II);wherein n is an integer selected from 10, 12, and 14; and the mol % of repeat units are based on the total repeat units present in the copolyamide; optionally, B) an aliphatic homopolyamide having one repeat unit selected from the group of formula (II) and C) a functional additive.

1. A transparent thermoplastic container comprising a thermoplastic composition consisting essentially of:
A) 60 to 100 weight percent of a polyamide resin consisting of
a) 10 to 40 mol % of a first repeat unit of formula (I),  andb) 60 to 90 mol % of a second repeat unit selected from the group consisting of formula (II)
—C(O)(CH2)nC(O)NH(CH2)6NH—  (II); wherein n is an integer selected from 10, 12, and 14; and the mol % of repeat units are based on the total repeat units present in the polyamide resin; B) 0 to 30 weight percent of an aliphatic homopolyamide having one repeat unit selected from the group of formula (II) and C) 0 to 10 weight percent of a functional additive; with the proviso that when component C) comprises a nucleating agent and said nucleating agent is talc and present at 0.1 to 2.0 weight percent, component B) is also present in at least 10 weight percent; and wherein the weight per cents of A), B) and C) are based on the total weight of the thermoplastic composition.
