Abstract
Abstract A process for the preparation of moulded bodies of thermoplastic polyamides, which comprises intensively mixing a polyamide and a masterbatch, converting the mixture by conventional thermoplast processing to moulded bodies and, before use, conditioning the bodies by contact with ambient moisture or, briefly, with water, in which the masterbatch contains at least 5% by weight of a silane substituted by one, 2 or 3 hydrolysable radicals and a functional group which can undergo a chemical reaction, to form a bond, with amino groups and/or carboxyl groups and/or amide groups in the polyamide chain.

Total Claims: 18
Claim 1
Independent Claim
188 words
In a process for the preparation of molded bodies of thermoplastic polyamides comprising intensively mixing a polyamide with a masterbatch containing at least 5% by weight of a silane of the formula wherein n is 0, 1 or 2; A is a hydrolyzable radical, the As being the same or different or two A's forming a divalent radical when n is 0 or 1, Z is an inert organic radical, the Zs being the same or different when n is 2 and Y is an organic radical having a functional group capable of reacting with an amino and/or carboxyl and/or amide groups in the polyamide chain to form a bond, converting the mixture by thermoplastic processing to molded bodies and conditioning the bodies before use by exposure to naturally ambiant moisture or briefly water, the improvement comprising adding the silane to the polyamide in the form of a materbatch selected from the group consisting of (1) a granulate of a melt of a polyolefin and the silane, (2) a silane swellable material containing the silane, and (3) a non-swellable thermoplast sponge with open pores filled with the silane.
