Claims
- 1. A linear homopolymer obtained by the thermal, free radical or ionic polymerization of an N-cyanoacylamide of formula I ##STR11## in which R.sub.1 is a hydrogen atom, alkyl having 1-20 C atoms, cycloalkyl having 5-8 C atoms or aryl having 6 or 10 ring C atoms, R.sub.2 is a hydrogen atom or alkyl having 1-4 C atoms and R.sub.3 is an alkylene or arylenealkylene group having not more than 12 C atoms, or, if R.sub.2 is a hydrogen atom, R.sub.3 is also an oxyalkylene group having not more than 12 C atoms.
- 2. A homopolymer according to claim 1 where in the compound of formula I
- R.sub.1 is --H, CH.sub.3 --CH.sub.2n, n=0-6 , ##STR12## in which R.sub.4 is --H, --CH.sub.3, --C.sub.2 H.sub.5, --CL, --Br, --NO.sub.2 or --OCH.sub.3, and R.sub.3 is --CH.sub.2 --, or --O--CH.sub.2p, m and p each being 1-6, or is ##STR13##
- 3. A homopolymer according to claim 1 wherein the compound of formula I is N-cyano-N-vinylbenzylacetamide, N-cyano-N-.beta.-methallylacetamide, N-cyano-N-allylacetamide or N-cyano-N-2-vinyloxyethylacetamide.
- 4. A copolymer obtained by the free radical polymerization of an N-cyanoacylamide of formula I ##STR14## in which R.sub.1 is a hydrogen atom, alkyl having 1-20 C atoms, cycloalkyl having 5-8 C atoms or aryl having 6 or 10 ring C atoms, R.sub.2 is a hydrogen atom or alkyl having 1-4 C atoms and R.sub.3 is an alkylene or arylenealkylene group having not more than 12 C atoms, or, if R.sub.2 is a hydrogen atom, R.sub.3 is also an oxyalkylene group having not more than 12 C atoms, and an ethylenically unsaturated comonomer selected from the group consistinig of the acrylate esters, the methacrylate esters, acrylonitrile, methacrylonitrile, styrene, divinylbenzene, vinyl acetate, maleic anhydride and the maleate esters and half esters.
- 5. A copolymer according to claim 4 where in the compound of formula I
