There are provided polymers containing amido-thiolate groups. These are produced by a nuceophilic substitution of polymers containing chlorine, and the resulting polymers have a pronounced hydrophylic character. There is also provided a process for the production of these starting with polymers which contain chlorine in the polymeric backbone or in side chains.

Nucleophilic substitution of chlorine containing polymers in aqueous

There are provided polymers containing chlorine wherein part of the chlorine atoms are substituted by thio-amide groups and where a further part of the chlorine atoms are substituted by epoxy moieties. Starting materials of choice are chlorinated polyalkylenes, polyvinyl chloride and polyvinylidene chloride. The polymers are produced by first producing a chlorine containing polymer wherein part of the chlorine is substituted by thio-amide groups, and further reacting such product with an epoxy resin so as to introduce epoxy groups.
