Polyamides containing the bio-based 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid

Abstract

Polyamides are made from the polycondensation of monomers including from 15 to 80 mol % of 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA), from 20 to 85 mol % of at least one aromatic dicarboxylic acid and from 50 to 100 mol % of at least one aliphatic diamine selected from those including 6 and 7 carbon atoms. A process allowing the synthesis of high molecular weight polyamides made from the above mentioned monomers is also described. Finally, compositions and articles including the same polyamides are also disclosed.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
