Zusammenfassung:A functionalized polyamide is prepared by reacting a multifunctional organic compound with an amide monomer in an aqueous liquid at elevated temperature. In the reaction, the multifunctional organic compound is a multifunctional acid compound or a multifunctional amine compound. The amide monomer is preferably a lactam compound. The functionalized polyamide, such as nylon, includes a multifunctional acid or multifunctional amine terminal end that results in increased crystallinity above 30% and an enthalpy of at least 60 J/g.
