The invention relates to a copolyamide comprising at least two different units corresponding to the following general formulation: n A/X.T n A is chosen from a unit obtained from an amino acid, a unit obtained from a lactam and a unit corresponding to the formula (C a diamine)·(C b diacid), with a representing the number of carbon atoms of the diamine and b representing the number of carbon atoms of the diacid, a and b each being between 4 and 36, advantageously between 9 and 18, n X.T denotes a unit obtained from the polycondensation of a C x diamine and of terephthalic acid, with x representing the number of carbon atoms of the C x diamine, x being between 9 and 36, advantageously between 10 and 18, n characterized in that said copolyamide exhibits: n a content of amine chain ends of greater than or equal to 20 μeq/g, n a content of acid chain ends of less than or equal to 100 μeq/g, and n a content of unreactive chain ends of greater than or equal to 20 μeq/g, n and to the process for the preparation of said copolyamide, to a composition comprising this copolyamide and to the use of this copolyamide and of such a composition. |
