Abstract

Novel wholly aromatic polyamides and copolyamides of the formula: ##STR1## are provided. The aromatic polyamides and copolyamides are prepared by condensation polymerizing an aromatic diamine selected from 3,5-diaminobenzophenone and a mixture of 3,5-diaminobenzophenone and m-phenylenediamine with an aromatic dibasic acid chloride in a chemical equivalent amount. The polymers of the invention can be easily dissolved in an organic solvent to give a molding solution suitable for use in the film casting. The film resulted from the polyamides of the invention has excellent physiochemical properties such as durability, chemical resistance, flexibility, compactness, tenacity, transparency and electric insulation.
