Abstract

Abstract Storable, autocrosslinkable polymers containing N-alkoxymethyl groups are obtained by reacting 5-alkoxymethyl-1,3,4-dioxazol-2-ones with a polymer having an average molecular weight above 600 and an average of more than one Zerewitinoff-active hydrogen atom in the molecule in the presence of a catalytic quantity of at least an alkali metal salt. The new catalysts allow to carry out the reaction at a temperature in the range from 50° to 110° C and guarantee a complete reaction of the reactants into uncrosslinked but autocrosslinkable light-stable end products.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 92 words
In the process of producing a storable, autocrosslinkable product containing N-alkoxymethyl groups which is soluble in organic solvents by reacting 5-alkoxymethyl-1,3,4-dioxazol-2-one with a polymerization, polycondensation or polyaddition product having an average molecular weight above 600 and having an average of more than one Zerewitinoff-active hydrogen atom in the molecule at a temperature of from 50°-110° C with substantially complete elimination of carbon dioxide from the 5-alkoxymethyl-1,3,4-dioxazol-2-one, the improvement wherein the process is carried out in the presence of a catalytic amount of at least one alkali metal salt of a carboxylic acid.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 92 words
In the process of producing a storable, autocrosslinkable product containing N-alkoxymethyl groups which is soluble in organic solvents by reacting 5-alkoxymethyl-1,3,4-dioxazol-2-one with a polymerization, polycondensation or polyaddition product having an average molecular weight above 600 and having an average of more than one Zerewitinoff-active hydrogen atom in the molecule at a temperature of from 50°-110° C with substantially complete elimination of carbon dioxide from the 5-alkoxymethyl-1,3,4-dioxazol-2-one, the improvement wherein the process is carried out in the presence of a catalytic amount of at least one alkali metal salt of a carboxylic acid.
