Abstract
Polypyrrolidone polymers and copolymers are obtained by polymerizing 2-pyrrolidone, optionally with another lactam, in the presence of a catalyst and accelerator, first in the mass until at least 10% of the monomer is converted but the reaction product is still capable of suspension, then completing the desired degree of polymerization by suspending the reaction mixture in an inert liquid dispersion agent that does not dissolve the desired polymer. Relatively high molecular weight polymers are prepared in a short amount of time using this two-stage procedure.
