Abstract: The synthesis and characterization of several polyenamine ketones are discussed wherein conjugated diacetylenic diketones and aromatic diamines are used as a route to the formation of high molecular weight polyenamine ketones which exhibit good mechanical properties and can be cast into creasible films. Typical polymerization conditions involved the reaction of stoichiometric amounts of 1,4- or 1,3-PPPO and a diamine at 60.degree.-130.degree. C. in m-cresol at (w/w) solids content of 8-26% for a specified period of time under a nitrogen atmosphere. Novel polyenamine ketones were prepared with inherent viscosities as high as 1.99 dl/g and tough, clear amber films with tensile strengths of 12,400 psi and tensile moduli of 397,000 psi were cast from solutions of the polymers in chloroform. The polymers exhibited T.sub.g s as high as 235.degree. C. and weight losses of 14% after aging at 232.degree. C. in circulating air for sixty hours.

Abstract: Ethyleneamines are recovered from an aqueous solution of carbonates of ethyleneamines by distilling an aqueous solution of carbonates of ethyleneamines including ethylenediamine, in which the molar ratio of the carbon dioxide component to the ethyleneamines including ethylenediamine is 0.01 to 0.5, whereby ethylenediamine is distilled out together with water. The aqueous solution to be distilled is advantageously prepared by heating an aqueous solution of carbonates of ethyleneamines including ethylenediamine to effect decarboxylation.

Abstract: This invention pertains to an improved process for preparing noncyclic polyalkylene polyamine compounds in high selectivity by reacting ammonia, an alkanolamine and an alkylene amine in the presence of an acidic catalyst. The improvement resides in effecting the reaction under fixed bed catalytic conditions and maintaining the reaction conditions such that a vapor phase condition exists for the reaction mixture comprising both reactants and products. To accomplish the formation of vapor phase conditions, sufficient ammonia is injected into the feedstream along with alkanolamine and alkylene amine so that the dew point temperature of the reaction product mix is below the reaction temperature at reaction pressure.
