Abstract

The invention relates to hyperbranched copolyamides (HBPAs), to their production and to their use as additives, in particular as melt viscosity modifiers in thermoplastic polymer compositions.This copolyamide is obtained by a reaction between a monomer (I): A—R—Bf One of the species R or R′ of (I) or (II) is aliphatic, cycloaliphatic or arylaliphatic.For example: A=NH2 and B=COOH or A=COOH and B=NH2 with F=2.A′=NH2 and B′=COOH or A′=COOH and B′=NH2.A—R—B2, e.g.: 5-aminoisophthalic acid or 3,5-diaminobenzoic acid and A′—R′—B′=ε-caprolactam.The yarns, fibres, films and moulded parts obtained using polymer compositions (e.g. PA) to which are added HBPA according to the invention are also included in this invention.
