Abstract
There is disclosed novel cross linked polyanhydroaspartic acid which is the product of the reaction of a polysuccinidmide with triaminononoane (TAN). Depending upon the amount a cross linking agent employed compositions of varying degrees of cross linking are produced. Mole ratio of polysuccinimide to TAN such as from 3 to 1 provides a water insoluble material while a mole ratio of 102 to 1 provides a water soluble material at 28% by weight. Such compounds find utility as thickeners, deflocculants, flocculants and water absorbers.
