Abstract

A composition comprising interacting a blend of a neutralized sulfonated polymer containing from about 4 meq. of metal sulfonate per 100 g. of polymer up to 200 meq. per 100 g. of polymer, said sulfonate polymer being at least 95% neutralized, complexed with a second polymer containing basic nitrogen atoms incorporated, pyridine copolymerized or grafted thereon, said polymer containing basic nitrogen from about 4 meq. up to 500 meq. per 100 g. of polymer, wherein the molar ratio of metal sulfonate groups to that of basic nitrogen atoms varies from about 0.03 to about 30; wherein said polymer containing basic nitrogen groups have the formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is an alkyl group having about 1 to about 8 carbon atoms, R.sub.2 is an alkyl group having about 1 to about 18 carbon atoms, x is about 50 to about 99.8 wt. %, and y is about 0.2 to about 50 wt. %.
