Abstract: This invention concerns a composition comprising a blend of polyolefin with the reaction of a functionalized polyolefin and polyetheramine in which the polyetheramine is grafted into the functionalized polyolefin in a customary mixing apparatus. A process for producing the reaction product of functionalized polypropylene and polyetheramine by melting with polypropylene in a customary mixing apparatus is also disclosed. Blends of the present invention are advantageously useful to prepare paintable automotive body parts. This invention further includes dyeable polyolefin compositions containing the reaction product of functionalized polyolefin and polyetheramine. Dyeable polyolefin fibers, including polypropylene fibers, are disclosed, which may be made by melt spinning, and which may be employed to make woven. and non-woven fabric.

Abstract: Water soluble polyamides may be produced by reacting two different dicarboxylic acids with at least one low molecular weight poly(alkylene glycol) diamine and at least one relatively high molecular weight polyoxyalkylene diamine. One dicarboxylic acid may be of low molecular weight, such as adipic acid and the other of relatively high molecular weight such as C.sub.36 dimer acid. In one embodiment, some dimer acid proportion is preferred. The poly(alkylene glycol) diamine may include triethylene glycol diamine and tetraethylene glycol diamine. The polyoxyalkylene diamine should have at least some ethylene oxide residue therein; for example it may be a polyoxyethylene/polyoxypropylene diamine. The resulting polyamides have a desirable combination of properties, including high strength with water solubility, the latter making the materials easier to work with and very useful.
