Abstract
Crosslinkable graft copolymers of poly(oxyalkylene) are provided which comprise from about 1 percent by weight of a substituted N-methylol derivative of acrylamide grafted onto a poly(oxyalkylene)-polymer.
Claims2
A graft copolymer of N-(isobutoxymethyl)acrylamide and a poly(oxyalkylene) having up to about 70 percent by weight of said N-(isobutoxymethyl)-acrylamide grafted onto a poly(oxyalkylene) polymer having the formula:
- R"[(OC.sub.n H.sub.2n).sub.z OR']a
- wherein R" is a hydrocarbon radical containing up to 10 carbons having a valence of a, a is an integer having a value from 1 to 4, R' is a hydrogen atom or a monovalent hydrocarbon radical containing up to 6 carbons, n has a value of 2 to 4, and z is an integer having a value of about 2 to about 800, wherein said graft copolymer is crosslinkable and film formable.
