METHOD FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF AMINOPOLYALKYLENE PHOSPHONIC ACIDS.

摘要

A method for the manufacture of aminopolyalkylene phosphonic acid of a specific general formula is described. In particular, a mixture of specifically defined ranges of reactants to wit: phosphorous acid; an amine; formaldehyde and an aminopolyalkylene phosphonic acid, having the same general formula as the compound to be manufactured, are reacted to thus yield a product of outstanding selectivity and purity with substantially reduced levels of non-desirable by-products.
