Abstract: Poly(ether ester amides) consisting of 60% to 80% by weight of a polyamide block obtainable from the following monomers:20 to 40% by weight of caprolactam or aminocaproic acid30 to 50% by weight of 11-aminoundecanoic acid20 to 40% by weight of the adduct of hexamethylenediamine anddecanedicarboxylic acidthe total amount of these polyamide-forming monomers adding up to 100% by weight, and of 20 to 40% by weight of a polyether diol/dicarboxylic acid block obtainable from equimolar amounts of polyethylene glycol with an M.sub.n molecular weight of 400 to 2,000 and one or several saturated aliphatic dicarboxylic acids with 6 to 36 carbon atoms, methods for their synthesis, spunbonded nonwovens from these poly(ether ester amides) and the use of the poly(ether ester amides) for the heat sealing of textiles.

Abstract: Thermoplastic hot-melt adhesive granulate for melt-coating, the granulate particles of which have a coating of a film of paraffin with a melting point of 45.degree. C. to 85.degree. C. in an amount of up to 5% by weight, based on the polymer. The antioxidant is present in the film coating. The invention also relates to a method for the manufacture of this hot-melt adhesive granulate and to its used as a hot-melt coating for heat sealing.

Abstract: Copolyetheresteramides containing, incorporated by condensation,20 to 40% by weight of caprolactam and/or .epsilon.-aminocaproic acid,10 to 30% by weight of an equimolecular mixture of adipic acid and primary aliphatic and/or cycloaliphatic C.sub.6 to C.sub.25 diamines,10 to 30% by weight of an equimolecular mixture of azelaic or sebacic acid and primary aliphatic and/or cycloaliphatic C.sub.6 to C.sub.25 diamines and20 to 40% by weight of an equimolecular mixture of decanedicarboxylic and/or brassylic acid and primary aliphatic and/or cycloaliphatic C.sub.6 to C.sub.25 diamines,always related to the total quantity of the polyamide-forming components, and in which, for 65 to 90% by weight of the total quantity of the polyamide-forming components, there are 10 to 35% by weight of the equimolecular quantities of saturated aliphatic linear dicarboxylic acids, having 6 to 13 C-atoms, and poly(alkylene oxide diols) as polyetherester-forming component, and a process for their preparation.
