Copolyimides-polyamides from aliphatic and aromatic anhydrides, dicarboxylic acids, and diamines

摘要

This invention relates to copolyimides-polyamides prepared from mixtures of tetramethylcyclobutane-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylic dianhydride (TMCDA), aromatic or aliphatic dianhydrides, and dicarboxylic acids or their esters or acid chlorides. These dianhydride-dicarboxylic acid mixtures are then reacted with aliphatic or aromatic diamines. These novel copolyimides-polyamides are useful in the preparation of molded articles, fibers, films, laminates and coatings.
