A colorless and transparent, amorphously processable polyamide molding composition which has a good resistance to stress cracking and good impact strength and is resistant to alcohols, esters, ketones, fuels and boiling water, comprising the reaction product of I. a linear aliphatic dicarboxylic acid; II.a) 35-60 mol % of trans,trans-bis(4-aminocyclohexyl)-methane; and II.b) 65-40 mol % of other aliphatic, cycloaliphatic, araliphatic or aromatic diamines as starting components, the molar ratio of components I and II varying in the range from 0.95 to 1.05:1, preferably 0.98 to 1.02:1. The polyamide molding composition is particularly suitable for use for spectacle frames, apparatus inspection windows and covers and lamp covers. |
