Abstract

Polylauryllactam low in fisheye gel content polymerized at temperatures ranging from about 260.degree. to 340.degree.C and in the presence of water and possibly in the presence of monocarboxylic acids having 2-18 carbon atoms or polycarboxylic acids having 2-12 carbon atoms as chain regulators, under pressure and with removal of the water, and possibly with post-condensation at temperatures ranging from about 200.degree. to 300.degree.C, wherein 2-hydroxyphenylbenzoxazole is added to the molten, lauryllactam monomer in such amounts that the polylauryllactam contains from about 0.05 to 1.5 percent by weight of 2-hydroxyphenylbenzoxazole.
