Abstract

The present invention relates to materials which are barriers to gases and to liquids, which are resistant to water and which are capable of being shaped into single- or multimaterial thin layers or films which can be processed by drawing and/or thermoforming. These barrier materials are based on copolyamide composed essentially of units derived from hexamethylenediamine, iso- and terephthalic acids and optionally adipic acid. They can be used for the manufacture of composite materials comprising one or more thin layers, sheets and/or films, pipes or hollow bodies intended in particular for the packaging of chemicals, foodstuffs or pharmaceutical and/or cosmetic products.
