Abstract
Abstract The invention provides wet- or dry-spinnable solutions of high molecular weight polyamide-polyimide copolymers derived from an aromatic diisocyanate, an aromatic or heterocyclic diacid, an aromatic anhydride acid and, optionally, an aromatic dianhydride, in polar solvents such as N-methylpyrrolidone.
