Abstract

Abstract A linear polydivinylbenzene having recurring units of Formula (A), ##STR1## and a number average molecular weight of about 500 to about 1,000,000; a linear copolymer having at least about 1% by weight of recurring units of Formula (A) as described above and at most about 99% by weight of recurring units of at least one of Formulae (B) and (C), ##STR2## wherein R 1 and R 2 may be the same or different and each represents a hydrogen atom, a C 1-20 alkyl group, a C 3-10 cycloalkyl group, a C 7-12 arylalkyl group, a C 3-8 alkenyl group, a C 6-15 aryl group, a H 2 N--CH 2 ) n group wherein n is an integer of 1 to 15 or a H--(NH--CH 2 --CH 2 ) n group wherein m is an integer of 2 to 8; and R 3 represents a hydrogen atom, a C 1-12 alkyl group, a C 3-10 cycloalkyl group, a C 7-12 arylalkyl group or a C 3-8 alkenyl group; and X is an acid radical, based on the total weight of the recurring units of Formulae (A) and (B) and/or (C), and a number average molecular weight of about 500 to about 1,000,000; and a process of preparing the linear polydivinylbenzene or the linear copolymer as described above.

A process of preparing a linear polydivinylbenzene having recurring units of Formula (A), ##STR22## and a number average molecular weight of about 500 to about 1,000,000, which comprises adding lithium diisopropylamide and divinylbenzene to an inert polar solvent in the presence of diisopropylamine.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 43 words
A process of preparing a linear polydivinylbenzene having recurring units of Formula (A), ##STR22## and a number average molecular weight of about 500 to about 1,000,000, which comprises adding lithium diisopropylamide and divinylbenzene to an inert polar solvent in the presence of diisopropylamine.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 10 words
The process of claim 1, wherein the divinylbenzene is p-divinylbenzene.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 10 words
The process of claim 1, wherein the divinylbenzene is m-divinylbenzene.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 24 words
The process of claim 1, wherein the amount of the lithium diisopropylamide is about 0.001 to about 1.0 mole per mole of the divinylbenzene.
