Nylon-6,6 is a polyamide formed by step-growth condensation between a diamine and a diacid, each releasing water at every amide bond formed.

Nylon-6,6 is prepared by heating hexamethylenediamine (1,6-diaminohexane) with adipic acid (hexanedioic acid) under high pressure/temperature; the amine and acid groups condense repeatedly, forming amide (−CO−NH−-CO-NH-) linkages and releasing a water molecule at each step:
