Abstract

The present invention relates to copolyimides of 100-70 mol % of recurring structural units of the formula I and 0-30 mol % of recurring structural units of the formula II ##STR1## in which Z.sup.a is a tetravalent aromatic tetracarboxylic acid radical other than that of thioxanthonetetracarboxylic acid, the carboxyl groups thereof in each case being located in pairs in the ortho-position or peri-position relative to one another, and X.sup.a is a divalent aromatic diamine radical which, in at least one ortho-position relative to at least one nitrogen atom, carries a hydrocarbon substituent having at least one aliphatic .alpha.-hydrogen atom or X.sup.a is a radical of the formula III ##STR2## in which X.sup.c is a divalent aromatic diamine radical which, in ortho-position relative to both nitrogen atoms, carries in each case at least one monovalent hydrocarbon substituent having at least one aliphatic .alpha.-hydrogen atom, n assumes an average value of 1.0 to 2.5, Z.sup.b is as defined for Z.sup.a and X.sup.b is an aliphatic, cycloaliphatic, aromatic or araliphatic diamine radical, excluding a radical of the formula III, with the proviso that the proportion of radicals of the formu…
