Abstract

Vinyl acetate and an N-vinyl formamide are copolymerized to yield poly(vinyl acetate)-co-poly(N-vinyl formamide) which is base hydrolyzed to poly(vinyl alcohol)-co-poly(N-vinyl formamide). Two phase hydrolysis of particles of poly(vinyl alcohol)-co-poly(N-vinyl formamide) as a slurry in methanol yields particles of poly(vinyl alcohol)-co-poly(vinylamine). provided is a copolymer of the following general formula ##STR1## where m is 0 to 15 mole %. n is 50 to 99 mole %. PA1 x is 0 to 30 mole %. and PA1 y is 1 to 50 mole % .
