Abstract

A melt-processable aromatic polyester anhydride characterized in that from 5 to 80% of the units linking the reactant residues in the polymer chain have the formula: ##STR1## the remaining linkages between the residues of the reactants being of the formula: ##STR2## optionally together with linkages of the formula: ##STR3## substantially all of said remaining linkages being disposed in coaxial or parallel and oppositely directed manner with respect to the residues to which they are linked, the polyester anhydride having a solubility of less than 5% by weight in dimethyl sulphoxide at room temperature.
