Abstract
Abstract In a process for producing a polymer of monoallylamine comprising polymerizing monoallylamine, the polymerization is carried out using as a monomer inorganic acid salts (e.g., hydrochloride, sulfate, etc.) of monoallylamine in the presence of an azo type radical initiator. By the process, polymers of monoallylamine having a high degree of polymerization can be obtained in high yield.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 18
Claim 1
Independent Claim
111 words
A process for producing a polymer of monoallylamine or a salt thereof which comprises polymerizing an inorganic acid salt of monoallylamine in a polar solvent in the presence of an azo type initiator selected from azo compounds represented by formulae (I), (II), (V) and (VI): ##STR3## wherein R 1 , R 2 , R 3 and R 4 each represents, which may be the same or different, a hydrocarbon group; R 1 and R 2 or/and R 3 and R 4 may be combined to complete a ring together with the carbon atom attached thereto; R 5 represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group; and m represents 0 or 1.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
111 words
