The present invention is to provide an amorphous wholly aromatic
polyester amide composition which has an excellent stretching property and a good adhesion to a heterogeneous
polymer and thereby can be in particular suitably used for a multilayer film, or a multilayer sheet, a multilayer blow formed product and the like. That is, (the first invention) an amorphous wholly aromatic
polyester amide composition obtained by blending 1 to 30% by weight of a modified
polyolefin resin or a
polyamide resin having a
melting point of 230° C. or lower or being amorphous with an amorphous wholly aromatic
polyester amide exhibiting an
optical anisotropy at
softening and flowing and being a wholly aromatic polyester amide obtained by copolymerizing (A) 4-
hydroxybenzoic acid, (B) 2-hydroxy-6-
naphthoic acid, (C) an aromatic aminophenol and (D) an aromatic
dicarboxylic acid, wherein (1) the ratio of (C) the aromatic aminophenol is from 7 to 35% by mol, (2) the ratio of the bending
monomer(s) among the starting monomers is from 7 to 35% by mol, (3) the ratio ((A) / (B)) between (A) 4-
hydroxybenzoic acid and (B) 2-hydroxy-6-
naphthoic acid is from 0.15 to 4.0, (4) the ratio of
isophthalic acid is at least 35% by mol in (D) the aromatic
dicarboxylic acid, (5) any
melting point is not found by DSC measurement at a temperature rising rate of 20° C. / min and (6) the
glass transition temperature is from 100 to 180° C., and (the second invention) an amorphous wholly aromatic polyester amide composition obtained by blending 1 to 30% by weight of a modified
polyolefin resin or a
polyamide resin having a
melting point of 230° C. or lower or being amorphous with an amorphous wholly aromatic polyester amide exhibiting
optical anisotropy at
softening and flowing and being a wholly aromatic polyester amide obtained by copolymerizing (A) 4-
hydroxybenzoic acid, (B) 2-hydroxy-6-
naphthoic acid, (C)′ an
aromatic diamine and (D) an aromatic
dicarboxylic acid, wherein (1) the ratio of (C)′ the
aromatic diamine is from 3 to 15% by mol, (2) the ratio of the bending
monomer(s) is from 7 to 35% by mol in the starting monomers, (3) the ratio ((A) / (B)) between (A) 4-hydroxybenzoic acid and (B) 2-hydroxy-4-naphthoic acid is from 0.15 to 4.0, (4) any melting point is not found by DSC measurement at a temperature rising rate of 20° C. / min and (5) the
glass transition temperature is from 100 to 180° C.
