Abstract
Polyamines containing primary amino groups are made by hydrolyzing an isocyanate with water in the presence of a solvent which is a carboxylic acid amide. The solvent must be used in a quantity of at least 10% by weight solvent based on 100% by weight of isocyanate. The weight ratio of solvent to water must be from 3 to 200. A homogeneous phase is maintained during the hydrolysis which is carried out at temperatures of from 20.degree. to 210.degree. C. A not incorporable basic and/or metal catalyst particularly alkali metal hydroxides may be employed. The polyamines produced by this process are particularly useful for the production of polyurethanes.
