Abstract: A process for the preparation of novel polyamides, the use of such polyamides for the production of fibers, sheets and moldings, and fibers, sheets and moldings obtainable from such polyamides, are provided.

Abstract: A process for preparing polyamides comprises polymerizing starting monomers or starting oligomers in the presence of at least one compound of the formula (I) where R is a functional group R8 which bears 1-4 identical or different amide-forming groups R7, R1 is H, C1-C20-alkyl, cycloalkyl, benzyl or OR6, where R6 is H, C1-C20-alkyl, cycloalkyl or benzyl, R2, R3, R4 and R5 are independently C1-C10-alkyl, n is a natural number greater than 1, and the piperidine derivatives attached to R are identical or different with regard to the substituents, meaning R1, R2, R3, R4 and R5. The polyamides are useful for preparing filaments, fibers, films, sheetlike structures and moldings.

Abstract: A modified polyamide polymer having a high amino end group content, with more than 30 percent of the amino end groups being secondary or tertiary amine, dramatically improves the dye bleed performance. The modified polyamide may be prepared by polymerization of polyamide-forming monomers in the presence of a carboxylic acid and a hindered piperidine derivative in amounts sufficient to achieve the high amino end group content.

Abstract: The use of microphase-separated polymer blends, comprising A-B-C triblockcopolymers containing an elastomeric middle block B and A′-C′ diblockcopolymers, for the preparation of permeable membranes.

Abstract: An inherently light- and heat-stabilized polyamide has at least one piperidine compound bonded to the backbone polymer chain and at least one 4-amino-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine compound bonded to the backbone polymer chain. The inherently light- and heat-stabilized polyamide may be used to form articles such as, for example, fibers, carpets, yarns, and textile fabrics.
