Abstract

Polyaspartic acid having a weight average molecular weight of 1000 to 5000 is produced by hydrolysis of anhydropolyaspartic acid that has been produced by condensation polymerization of L-aspartic acid. Conversion in excess of 80 percent is achievable utilizing "temperature vs. time" profiles.
