Abstract
The present invention relates to aqueous solutions or dispersions of hydroxy-functional copolymers containing imide structural units corresponding to the formula ##STR1## The present invention also relates to a process for the production of these aqueous solutions or dispersions of hydroxy-functional copolymers containing imide structural units by reacting anhydride-functional and optionally carboxyl-functional copolymers corresponding to the hydroxy-functional copolymers with aminoalcohols and optionally aminocarboxylic acids. In a further embodiment of the process the hydroxy-functional copolymers may be reacted with lactones resulting in ring opening and the formation of ester groups.
