Abstract
Abstract An aromatic polyamide composition which is suitable for producing filaments or fibers having an excellent heat-resisting property and a superior dyeing property, which comprises: (A) 50 to 95% by weight of poly-m-phenylene isophthalamide, and; (B) 5 to 50% by weight of at least one other aromatic polyamide comprising: (1) an amine moiety consisting essentially of (a) 35 to 100 molar % of at least one xylylene diamine and, (b) 0 to 65 molar % of at least one other aromatic diamine, and; (2) an acid moiety consisting essentially of at least one aromatic dicarboxylic acid.
