Abstract
This invention relates to high temperature, semi-crystalline, semi-aromatic nylon terpolymers with improved shrinkage resistance, made from terephthalic acid (TA), hexamethylene diamine (HMD) and/or 2-methyl pentamethylene diamine (2-MPMD) and another aliphatic dicarboxylic acid as monomers. These polymers display superior % TD (Transverse Direction) annealing shrinkage, as well as very good balance of mechanical performance as high temperature nylons.
