A process is described for reducing the amount of low molecular weight oligomers formed during the hydrolysis of a condensation polymer. This process comprises the neutral aqueous hydrolysis of a condensation polymer in which conditions are controlled such that the following two conditions are met: (1) the amount of water and the condensation polymer present in the hydrolysis zone are such that the least soluble final depolymerization product would not exceed its solubility limits, assuming all of the polymer is converted to final depolymerization products; and (2) temperature conditions and aqueous concentration of final depolymerization products are controlled so that at equilibrium, the amount of low molecular weight oligomers is no greater than 7% of the theoretical, based on the amount of polymer added.
