Abstract

A multilayer plastic pipe having improved barrier action against diffusion of the substance being transported, particularly methanol-containing fuels, dimensional stability, resistance to mechanical stress, and particularly improved adhesion between layers is provided comprising: PA1 (A) an inner layer and an outer layer, each of which comprise a polyamide-based molding composition, wherein the inner layer and outer layer may be the same or different, and (B) at least one intermediate layer comprising PA2 a) 95 to 60% by weight of a linear, crystalline polyester and PA2 b) 5 to 40% by weight of a polymer containing reactive groups other than epoxide groups, wherein the reactive groups are contained in a concentration of from 4 to 95 mmol/kg based on the total amount of component (B); and wherein the layers are intimately bonded to one another.
