A series of alternating aliphatic poly(amide‐ester)s, derived from dicarboxylic acid and aminoalcohols, were obtained by polycondensation in melt. All poly(amide‐ester)s were characterized by FTIR and 1 H/ 13 C‐NMR spectroscopies. The synthesized polymers showed an inherent viscosity ranging from 0.4 to 1.0 dL g −1 . Thermal analysis showed melting points within the range 100–115°C and glass transition within the range 30–60°C. Decomposition temperatures were more than 200°C higher than the corresponding melting temperatures. The polymers can thus be processed from the melt. The processed polymers were partially crystalline with good thermal stability. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 95: 362–368, 2005
