Polyamide

A polyamide is a Aramids, and sodium poly(aspartate).

Production from monomers

The amide link is produced from the hydrogen chloride, is eliminated.

The amino group and the carboxylic acid group can be on the same monomer, or the polymer can be constituted of two different bifunctional monomers, one with two amino groups, the other with two carboxylic acid or acid chloride groups.

R groups is ignored) reacting with identical molecules to form a polyamide:

Aramid (pictured below) is made from two different monomers which continuously alternate to form the polymer and is an aromatic polyamide:
