  • Patent number: 5519093
    Abstract: Amine functional polymers are prepared by polymerization of vinylamides with vinyl ester monomers. The resultant polymers are hydrolyzed under acid conditions and subsequently at least partially basified to the free-base amine. Byproduct salts are removed by precipitation or by extraction into an immiscible phase. The polymers made by this method are crosslinkable through reaction of the amine groups and are useful in high performance coatings, adhesives, binders and the like.
