Phosphonylated derivatives of polyalkylene oxide polymers and applications thereof

摘要

The invention is a randomly phosphonylated polymeric composition comprising:
a polyalkylene oxide polymer, and

phosphorous-containing functional groups, wherein the phosphorous atom of each functional group is covalently bonded to a carbon atom of the polyalkylene oxide polymer, and wherein the phosphorous atoms comprise at least about 0.1 percent by weight of the polymeric composition.
