PROCESS FOR IMIDIZING POLYMERS OF A METHACRYLIC ESTER

摘要

In a process for imidizing an alkyl methacrylate polymer by reaction with a nitrogen-containing imidizing agent, the formation of carboxyl and anhydride groups is suppressed when a portion of the imidizing agent is added only after the previously added imidizing agent has been reacted at least partially, and particularly when the reaction with the imidizing agent is terminated before the polymer has been completely imidized.
