Abstract
A method for producing polyamides, and to a method for producing primary polycondensates which are intermediates for polyamide production. More precisely, the invention relates to a method for producing primary polycondensates, which comprises a step of polycondensing a dicarboxylic acid component having a terephthalic acid content of from 60 to 100 mol % and a diamine component in which the amount of 1,9-nonanediamine and/or 2-methyl-1,8-octanediamine falls between 60 and 100 mol %, in the presence of water of being from 15 to 35% by weight, at a reaction temperature falling between 250.degree. C. and 280.degree. C. and under a reaction pressure (P) that satisfies the following formula (1):
