Abstract: A water-soluble or water-dispersible copolymer comprising: at least one polyoxyalkylene (POA) unit; and at least one sulfonated polyamide (PAS) unit; the quantity of SO3M functions, expressed as the mass of SO3− function, in said (PAS) unit or units is such that it represents at least 0.1% of the total mass of said copolymer; the total (POA) units/total (PAS) units mass ratio is 95/5 to 30/70/ the number of amine functions —NH2 present in said copolymer is at most 80 milliequivalents per kilogram of copolymer; the number of carboxyl functions —COOH present in said copolymer is at least 80 milliequivalents, preferably at least 100 milliequivalents per kilogram of copolymers.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for obtaining PAI fibers by spinning PAI in solution and to the fibers thus obtained. They are obtained by dry or wet spinning into dimethylalkyleneurea followed by removal of the solvent and overdrawing at high temperature. The yarns and fibers obtained are produced from PAI based on tolylene or meta-phenylene diisocyanate, and on an aromatic acid anhydride and/or an aromatic dianhydride, and optionally on one or a number of diacid compounds. They exhibit an outstanding thermomechanical behavior and make it possible to gain access to very low linear densities.
