Abstract
Polycondensates which contain tartaric acid derivatives, processes for their preparation and use thereof. The invention relates to polycondensates which consist of at least 95 mol % of recurring structural units of the formula I ##STR1## where R.sup.1 is a 2,3-O-alkylidenetartaric acid derivative (II) or furo[2,5] (V), alkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, aryl or a heterocycle, X is --O-- --NH-- or --S-- and R.sup.2 is 2,3-O-alkylidene-L-threitol (III) or a compound of the formula VI, alkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, aryl or a heterocycle, with the proviso that more than 5 mol % of the radicals R.sup.1 and/or R.sup.2 are present in the polycondensate of the formula I, where R.sup.1 is compound of the formula II or R.sup.2 is a compound of the formula III or R.sup.1 is a compound of the formula II and R.sup.2 is a compound of the formula III, or in which more than 5 mol % of the radicals R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are present in the polycondensate of the formula I, where
