| abstract |
The present invention relates to a yarn comprising a copolyamide in an amount of at least 90% by weight based on the total weight of the yarn, a) a monomer unit derived from hexamethylenediamine and adipic acid in an amount of at least 95% by weight based on the total weight of the copolyamide, and b1) a cyclic monomer unit derived from diamine X, and a cyclic monomer unit derived from diacid Y, and / or b2) cyclic monomer units derived from amino acid Z Lt; RTI ID = 0.0 > The total amount of monomer units derived from X, Y, and Z is from 0.1 to 4.5 wt% based on the total weight of the copolyamide, and the yarn has a tensile strength of at least 80 cN / tex as measured according to ASTM D885-04. The present invention also relates to a method for producing the yarn. |
