Abstract
The present invention relates to heat-resistant threads, filaments and fibres based on polyamide-imide. They have a polydispersion index I.ltoreq.2.2, a breaking tenacity.gtoreq.45 cN/tex, a Young's modulus.gtoreq.3.8 GPa, an elongation.ltoreq.25% and a color defined by the luminance Y>25%, the degree of whiteness DW<30 and the yellow index YI>170. In addition they have a very good stability to light, quantified by the retention of the mechanical characteristics. They have wide application in working and protective garments.
