Abstract
Novel block copolyetheramides which are homogeneous and flexible at low temperatures and have melting or softening points of at least 170.degree. C., glass transition temperatures of at most -5.degree. C. and viscosities in the molten state of at least 500 poises, are facilely prepared by copolymerizing (I) admixture of a lactam having from 4 to 12 carbon atoms with a solution of a salt of a fatty acid dimer and a polyoxyalkylenediamine in a solvent medium comprising (i) a mixture of water and an aliphatic alcohol having less than 5 carbon atoms, (ii) a water/alcohol/lactam mixture, (iii) a lactam in molten state or (iv) a water/lactam mixture wherein the lactam is water soluble, the stoichiometry of said salt being adjusted such that the pH thereof is within .+-.0.05 pH units of its equivalence point and (II) a minor amount of a strong inorganic oxyacid or a strong organic oxyacid other than a carboxylic acid.
