Abstract
Polyetherketoneimides and copolymers thereof having an imide repeat unit of formula ##STR1## wherein Ri is ##STR2## in which A is a direct bond or --O--or another substantially non-electron-withdrawing group, and/or Ra is an at least partly arylene moiety other than m- or P-phonylene. These polymers tend to have improved melt stability and other properties, especially when made from a pre-existing imide monomer, instead of by the known amic acid route which results in uncyclised amic acid residues in the polymer.
