  • Patent number: 4331786
    Abstract: A moldable and/or extrudable polyether-ester-amide block copolymer is disclosed which has the formula ##STR1## wherein A is a linear saturated aliphatic polyamide sequence formed from a lactam or amino acid having a hydrocarbon chain containing 4 to 14 carbon atoms or from an aliphatic C.sub.6 -C.sub.12 dicarboxylic acid and a C.sub.6 -C.sub.9 diamine, in the presence of a chain-limiting aliphatic carboxylic diacid having 4 to 20 carbon atoms; said polyamide having an average molecular weight between 300 and 15,000; and B is a polyoxyalkylene sequence formed from linear or branched aliphatic polyoxyalkylene glycols, mixtures thereof or copolyethers derived therefrom said polyoxyalkylene glycols having a molecular weight of between 200-6,000 and n indicates a sufficient number of repeating units so that said polyether-ester-amide block copolymer has an intrinsic viscosity of from about 0.8 to about 2.05.
