Abstract: Polyamines possessing imide groups are obtained by heating at least one unsaturated polyimide of the general formula: ##STR1## WITH AT LEAST ONE POLYAMINE OF THE GENERAL FORMULA:Z(NH.sub.2).sub.bin which a and b each independently represents a number ranging from 2 to 6, Y represents an organic radical of valency a and Z represents an organic radical of valency b, in amounts such that the ratio of the number of NH.sub.2 groups introduced by the polyamine to the number of imide groups introduced by the polyimide is greater than 1 and at most equal to 5. These polyamines are useful for curing epoxy resins.

Abstract: Novel quinoxaline derivatives, useful as immune regulatory agents capable of altering the immune response in mammals.

Abstract: Microbiocidal quaternary ammonium polymers which are made by condensing a difunctional tertiary amine with an excess of 1,4-dihalo-2-butene, then after removing the unreacted 1,4-dihalo-2-butene, adding to the reaction product a calculated quantity of monofunctional tertiary amine for the purpose of forming a linear polymer whose termini at both ends are quaternary ammonium moieties.
