Abstract

The present invention relates to a process for obtaining semiordered polyamides-imides. More particularly it consists in performing the polycondensation in two separate stages: PA0 1) reaction between a part of an aromatic diisocyanate and all of the trimellitic anhydride in the presence of dimethylalkyleneurea of pH.ltoreq.7 until the intermediate compound has dissolved, PA0 2) successive addition of one or more aromatic diacids and of the remainder of the diisocyanate in the dimethylalkyleneurea of pH.ltoreq.7 until the polyamide-imide obtained has dissolved completely. The semiordered polymers thus obtained have a Tg lower than the random polymers, and this makes them easier to convert.
